Featured deal: Save $130 on the iPad Pro or Galaxy Tab S7
Samsung and Apple are always vying to be king of the tablets, and they’re matching each other in terms of savings this weekend. Right now you can save $130 on either the 2020 11-inch iPad Pro or the Galaxy Tab S7.
The discount on the iPad Pro is particularly noteworthy since Apple is famously tight-fisted on sale prices. This deal is on the Wi-Fi only, 256GB model of the 2020 tablet, and buyers won’t be disappointed. Combining excellent hardware, a superb display, and respectable battery life, it’s a very useful productivity tool. It’s on offer for $769 ($130 off) right now.

If you’re more Android-inclined, the Samsung Galaxy S7 is also a lovely piece of hardware, offering similarly impressive performance, display, and battery life as the iPad. The 11-inch model is naturally cheaper too, and you get double the storage space in this 512GB featured deal. It’s down to $699.99 ($130 off) direct from Samsung. If you have an older device to trade in, you can get it for as little as $199.99 ($530 off).
