Don't you just love it when we've got spring in full swing, but the best tablet deals almost make it feel like it's Black Friday all over again? I know I do.

My wallet might love it a little bit less, but hey, it doesn't count if it's on sale, right? ...Right?

But seriously, there's a lot in the way of good tablets with some surprisingly steep discounts right now. I'm honestly tempted to snag one myself.

My tablet (a Samsung Galaxy, in case you were wondering) goes everywhere with me. It's my source of mindless games, late-night Netflix binges, video calls with my family, and even my backup monitor when I'm working away from home. That thing's resilient, but it might be time for something new. Good thing that there's plenty to choose from right now.

April is packed with spring savings, including solid discounts on the industry's top-rated tablets. Newer tablets like the new Apple iPad 11 and the Apple M3 iPad Air are already being discounted, which came as a surprise to me.

I'm not used to new stuff getting cheaper that soon, and tablets tend to hold steady for a bit before they drop off in the anticipation of a new gen. We're not at that stage, though, and yet, here we are, with deals for days.

I did a little digging (as you do) and I found some really nice deals on Apple iPads, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Lenovo Tab, Microsoft Surface Pro, and Google Pixel Tablet.

Just to name a few, you can get the previous-gen Apple iPad 10 for $279 ($70 off) at Best Buy and the Google Pixel Tablet for $299 ($100 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. If you're looking for a portable M4 MacBook alternative, PC Richard offers the 13-inch Apple iPad Pro M4 for $1,098 ($201 off).

Whether you want a tablet for work, play, or both, there’s no shortage of options, and I’m keeping tabs (pun so intended) on the best of them for you.

As I put together this list, I may have accidentally convinced myself to buy one too. Not saying which, though.

Check out the best tablet deals below — and see if you can guess which one I’m getting while the discounts last.
