The best tablet you can pick up for Black Friday is this $280 iPad

Looking to buy a tablet for Black Friday? Then you'll want to take a look at the 8th-gen iPad. The tablet debuted just two months ago and is picking up its first discount for Black Friday. The 32GB model is now available for just $280, a full $50 discount from its $330 retail price.

The 8th-gen iPad features upgraded hardware in the form of the A12 Bionic chipset while retaining the same design as its predecessor. There's plenty to like here, and the fact that you're getting $50 off a brand new tablet makes it one of the best Black Friday tablet deals. The 128GB model is down to $360, a $70 discount.

$280 at Best Buy

The base model of the iPad is faster than ever before while retaining a familiar design. The under the hood upgrades make it a great choice in 2020, and the iPad works with the second-gen Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard. Best of all, you get one year of Apple TV+ with your purchase.

The 8th-gen iPad doesn't change things too much from its predecessor, but it does offer exciting upgrades in a few key areas. The 10.2-inch screen has a resolution of 2160 x 1620 and you'll find the familiar Touch ID button on the bottom bezel.

The A12 Bionic is where things get interesting, because the chipset delivers massive gains in performance across the board. You also get support for Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard, making the iPad that much more versatile. The iPad comes with iPadOS 14 out of the box, and you get to access all the new features, including Scribble, better handwriting recognition, and so much more.

The iPad ticks all the right boxes, and the software is miles ahead of what Android tablets offer. Google really hasn't paid much attention to tablets in the last two years, and the result is that the iPad is the go-to choice if you're looking for a tablet that takes full advantage of all the screen real estate. With the latest iPad now on sale for just $280, getting your hands on one just became that much more affordable.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
