Apple's new iPad is on sale for $426 for Black Friday

<p>This may be your best chance to get Apple's latest 'starter' tablet on sale this holiday season. Amazon is offering the new 64GB WiFi iPad <a href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9kcC9CMEJKTFhNVk1WP3RoPTEmdGFnPWdkZ3QwYy1wLW8tOWktMjAiLCJjb250ZW50VXVpZCI6Ijk2NTNkMmRlLTNjNzQtNGNiOC1iOGNiLWQ2MWY2OWUzMmQ1ZSJ9&amp;signature=AQAAARY3nkVxXviHkDgdMK12ZBu7vhdLk6LHXZft7WpKYuAU&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fdp%2FB0BJLXMVMV%3Fth%3D1" class="rapid-with-clickid" data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:">for $426[/url], or $23 below the official price. This is the first time we've seen a bargain for the device. You'll see similar five percent discounts for 256GB and cellular models, and you don't have to be picky about colors.</p><p><core-commerce id="517a7df1458e43b8ab36e6ebfb21c7b8" data-type="product-list"></core-commerce></p><p>The 2022 iPad is a mostly welcome redesign (https://www.engadget.com/apple-ipad-10th-generation-review-160014897.html). Apple has finally ditched the thick bezels of past base models, and has replaced the Lightning port with USB-C. The Smart Connector allows for improved peripherals like the Magic Keyboard Folio, and the front-facing camera is finally in the right place for typical landscape-oriented video chats. Toss in a still-speedy A14 chip and healthy battery life and this is a fine tablet for everyday use. It might even replace a laptop in the right circumstances.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>There are some foibles. The screen isn't as sophisticated as that of the iPad Air (https://www.engadget.com/apple-ipad-air-5th-generation-review-130019050.html), and the A14 rules out iPadOS 16's Stage Manager. And you'll want to spring for the Air if you're the artistic sort — the new entry model only supports Apple's first-generation Pencil (not included), and you'll have to attach an adapter just to pair and charge the stylus. At a reduced price, though, the new iPad is both a better value for less demanding tasks and easier to justify versus last year's cheaper variant.</p><p>Get the latest Black Friday (https://engadget.com/black-friday/) and Cyber Monday (https://www.engadget.com/cyber-monday/) offers by following @EngadgetDeals on Twitter (https://twitter.com/EngadgetDeals) and subscribing to the Engadget Deals newsletter (https://subscription.yahoo.net/Newsletter/Preference/sub?b=engadgetdeals&amp;src).</p>
