iPad mini 6
Starting with the iPad mini, you can get the 256GB Wi-Fi iPad mini 6 for $599.00, down from $649.00. This $50 off markdown is a match of the all-time low price on this version of the iPad mini. It's available in Starlight and Space Gray, but the Starlight option has faster shipping.
In another Amazon sale, Apple's Magic Keyboard for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro has been discounted to $299.98, down from $349.00. Although we've seen the Black colorway go down to a lower price, this is a new record low price on the White version of the 2021 Magic Keyboard.
This Magic Keyboard is compatible with the 12.9-Inch iPad Pro (third generation and later). It features a trackpad, USB-C port, backlit keys, and a floating cantilever design.

I love my 256 mini. I purchased an extra pencil, but if you have a gen 2 pencil and another iPad you can swap between them by magnetic attaching them for a second.
What’s really hard to find right now are the Apple mini-cases. I have a black case on a pink mini and it looks and works great. If you get a mini and are considering the Apple case just do it.
I have this ordered from Apple with basically the same delivery window and the same price due to education discount. Wondering if I should order this one as well and see who wins the race!
