It’s the final day of Prime Day (we have rounded up the best deals here), meaning it’s your last chance to bag some serious savings before the deals disappear at midnight. From home appliances to the latest tech, thousands of products are on offer exclusively for Prime members – and Apple is one of the headline names to watch. If you've been eyeing a new device, now’s the time to act. I just spotted a handy £40 discount on this year’s iPad, making the best all-round tablet on the market even more tempting.

Apple rarely offers direct discounts, so deals on iPads, iPhones and Macs during Prime Day are always worth a closer look. That’s why we’re keeping our list of the best Apple deals this Prime Day updated until the final hours.

For my money, this iPad deal is the standout – a great pick whether you're working, studying, or just streaming your favourite shows. Simple, powerful, and backed by Apple’s vast app ecosystem, it's a hard one to beat.

The bog-standard iPad continues to be our top recommendation for the best tablet for most people, and this Prime Big Deal Days discount makes it an even more compelling purchase. While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the pricey Pro models, it nails the fundamentals, delivering a fast, fluid experience and access to millions of apps. We’re still putting it to the test, but if it’s anything like the 10th-gen, we’re expecting to be impressed.
