It may be Apple's least expensive tablet, but the 10.2-inch iPad is a capable device. In our iPad review, we praised the slate for its long battery life, large, bright display, and keyboard support. 

The iPad is the best option for people who want an Apple tablet but don't need the fastest performance. Not that the 10.2-inch iPad is a slouch in that department; You won't have any problems using the table for everyday tasks, like streaming videos, browsing the web or checking social media. 

We're not sure how long this sale will remain available, so you might need to act fast. If you're in the market for any other gadgets this holiday season, see our Black Friday and Cyber Monday hubs.
