It’s available for $600, or $49 off the regular price.

The cellular iPad Mini is a great choice for road warriors because it has 5G connectivity as well as WiFi 6, allowing you to stay connected no matter where you are. Given the value of that function, it’s a bit pricey at $649, and we’ve only seen it on sale a few times. If you’ve been eyeing one, Amazon currently has it for $600, which is $49 off the original price – the biggest reduction we’ve seen so far.

The 2021 model has similar specs to the iPhone 13, with the same speedy A15 Bionic chip that delivers a big jump in performance over the fifth-gen model. It comes with a larger 8.3-inch display with higher 2,266 x 1,488 resolution and eliminates the physical home button, moving the Touch ID sensor to the power button. The volume buttons, meanwhile, are at the top to make room for Apple Pencil 2 that can be attached to the side magnetically.

Other features include USB-C charging and upgraded cameras with support from Apple’s Center Stage feature, keeping you in the center of the frame during video calls. The main downsides are the lack of a headphone jack, limited 64GB of storage on the base model, and a higher price, particularly with the cellular model. Also keep in mind that the 5G doesn’t support mmWave, so don’t expect a big jump in wireless speeds compared to LTE. 

If you’re fine with the 5G limitations and 64GB storage, Amazon has at least taken the edge off the price. The $600 price for the 64GB cellular model is available on all four listed colors, but it’s best to act soon before the sale ends.
