Recently, while exploring Apple deals on Amazon, I stumbled upon some astonishingly low prices on high-end iPad Pros, particularly the 12.9-inch models. For instance, I found the M1 models featuring 1TB of storage and cellular connectivity priced nearly $600. With the recent launch of iPadOS 26, which significantly enhances the iPad’s functionality, I felt compelled to share these incredible deals. This article focuses primarily on renewed iPad deals due to their affordability, but I will also touch on new iPad options at the end.
Amazon's refurbishment program, known as Amazon Renewed, offers a wide selection of used, tested, and cleaned electronics at attractive prices. Each purchase comes with a 90-day return window, ensuring peace of mind in case any issues arise. The M1 iPad Pro models were introduced by Apple in 2021, featuring significant upgrades such as:
Introduction of Thunderbolt technology A new 12MP front-facing ultra-wide camera with Center Stage 5G connectivity 12.9-inch models equipped with a mini-LED display, branded as Liquid Retina XDR, allowing up to 1600 nits of peak brightnessThis marked one of the most substantial updates to the iPad Pro since its 2018 redesign. Now that some time has passed since their release, remarkable deals are available for these models.
Here are some incredible deals on the 12.9-inch iPad Pro (M1) models in excellent condition:

For those looking to save further, here are additional pricing options:

Currently, there are no significant deals on 11-inch M2 models, but all of these iPads are in excellent condition and come with a generous 90-day return policy.
While the M1 and M2 iPad Pros take center stage, it’s worth mentioning the recent iPad Air models which also feature these advanced chipsets. While you may sacrifice some display quality, connectivity options, and speaker performance, you can save a considerable amount. The iPad Air also comes in various colors, adding a personal touch. Here are some attractive deals on renewed M1 iPad Air models:

I am genuinely impressed with the affordability of these renewed iPad models. It’s easy to get swept up in the latest technology, but doing so often comes with a hefty price tag. With these renewed deals, you can save a substantial amount while still enjoying a high-quality device, just one or two generations behind the latest models.
