Tablets get a bad rap. They're smaller than laptops and desktops, and harder to type on, but you're also not going to carry them around in your pocket instead of a smart phone. So what's the perk about these things anyway? It's the screen size!

If you can't stomach an older iPad mini, then Amazon's Cyber Monday sale has knocked a welcome $40 off the price of the new, M4-powered iPad mini. You'll have to choose the Space Gray model for the maximum saving, though smaller discounts are also available on the other color variants.

It's your last chance (for real) this year to save up to 40% on all Apple gear. And you know that brand rarely goes on deep sale, so don't delay!
