We certainly did not expect the ultra-popular new iPad Mini to drop to its lowest-ever price at Amazon two whole weeks into 2025, but here we are. It’s just $399 right now, and well worth grabbing before it goes back to its normal $499 price.

If traditional iPads are a bit too cumbersome for your daily routine, the smaller, more approachable iPad mini may be right up your alley. It's only 8.3 inches wide, and it's compact enough to hold with just one hand.

Fans say it's the ideal size for reading and streaming, and an upgraded chip makes it a teeny little powerhouse.
