As of Oct.17, the 2024 Apple iPad mini is available to pre-order for $484 at Walmart. That's a saving of $15 on list price. Preorders for the new iPad mini have only just been released, and we've already got a price drop.

The new iPad mini 7 comes out on Oct. 23, and you can preorder it today. Here are the best preorder deals you can find.
