Pro motion probably lol
The $550 M1 11" iPad Pro at Target was in a 3-way tie for best 2022 holiday iPad deal.

The other two (just as good):
$226 9th-gen base iPad at Target, after the 'accessory cancel' discount
and
$350 4th-gen base iPad Air (A14) at Walmart.
I guess 550 target iPad Pro deal is a little bit better?

Wait a minute….

What about the 128GB iPad M1 Pro 12.9" going for $799.99????

That one was and still popular for the $. What gives?
Because it has been that price several times before this Black Friday:

https://slickdeals.net/f/16088476-2021-apple-12-9-inch-ipad-pro-wi-fi-128gb-silver-5th-generation-walmart-com-799

Those other three were 'new lows'.

The links you provided were technically a BF deal except it was advertised earlier in October. It has had been a thing for retailers to start BF deal much early to be ahead of competition.

The 12.9 M1 128GB iPad deal has not gotten any cheaper than $799. Best Buy had duplicated the deal and listed as "BF" for 3 weeks so that has been the lowest best deal…and it a M1 chipset with a very large screen.

Now going slightly off topic, the link below has to be the best deal even though not everyone was eligible to even shop there.

Actually, that exact config went as low as $749 via Costco. But not everyone can buy from Costco.

Exactly! I missed the $350 Air but got the $550 Pro and so glad I did. I was excited about the extra speakers and ProMotion but the feature I end up loving the most is the FLASHLIGHT! The Pro has a rear LED flashlight people! Forget specs and everything else the flashlight makes the Pro worth more than all the others. 80% of the time I'm using my iPad after my kids have gone to sleep and a mine field of toys await my feet on journeys to the fridge.

The target deal on iPad Pro @550 was better. More storage + better screen + better camera module (if you care about the camera on an iPad)

That's one thing that could be helpful. I don't know how it compares to the iPhone, which I don't have, but a good camera on something other than my DSLR would be nice. I have the new GoPro 11 for video. My phone sucks, but I seem to destroy those, so one on a tablet might be good. I took pictures and video at the Sublime concert a year ago, and mine looked like garbage on my Moto G7 or 5G Ace, but others looked like they were next to the stage. Not that big of a deal since it's just video for me, but I see what I'm missing with my phone camera. But they don't allow SD cards and headphone jacks, so that's why I upgraded to this phone instead of a cheaper one.

Another thing I've considered is buying a used iPhone. They go for cheap enough here. I bought my 2020 MacBook Pro with Apple Care until 2024 for $500.

I'm still wondering why the $550 deal didn't show up to me… I've even searched "ipad" during BF to Cyber Monday whole days… still it doesn't show up to me. Why… why……

64GB lol really?

I'm selling my Air 4 cause the space limitation really hampers this. I'm finally going back to Android for a tablet. I edit photos on my Air and while it works great the lack of space is a killer. My iOS uses like 25% too.

That's an answer instead of them just packing more space into the thing that isn't like $20 a gigabyte?
