Our latest roundup of the best tech deals from around the web includes a discount at Best Buy that brings Apple&#8217;s iPad Mini down to $400.  While this deal is only around $25-$30 lower than the 8.3-inch tablet&#8217;s average price on Amazon over the last couple of months, it&#8217;s still $100 off Apple&#8217;s MSRP, and it matches the lowest price we&#8217;ve tracked.<\/p>\n<p>We gave the Mini a positive review when it launched last September.  It&#8217;s still a somewhat niche device, in that you really have to find value in owning a small tablet, and not just a larger phone, for it to be worth it.  The iPad Air and iPad Pro models have faster M1 SoCs and bigger displays better suited to productivity, while the 10.2-inch iPad still provides the essentials at a lower price, even if its design is dated by comparison.  We wish the base model here had more than 64GB of storage, too.  But if the idea of \u200b\u200ba one-handed tablet for reading, watching videos, Apple Pencil doodling, and doing other iPad things is specifically what you&#8217;re after, the iPad Mini is still the best <em>one of those<\/em>.  Its A15 chip remains plenty performing for mainstream tasks, its display is accurate, and its iPad Air-like redesign, complete with squared edges and a USB-C port, makes better use of its available space.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that the previous-gen iPad Mini <em>started<\/em> at $399, but this newer model is a fairly significant upgrade all the same.  If you want cellular connectivity, meanwhile, the model that supports that is on sale for $550, which also matches the lowest price we&#8217;ve seen.  There&#8217;s a chance Apple introduces a new iPad Mini later this year, too, potentially with the M1 chip, though we haven&#8217;t seen many reports suggesting as much (unlike other Apple products), and any new model is unlikely to reach this deal price soon after launch.<\/p>\n<p>Besides that, we also have a solid discount on Eufy&#8217;s Solo IndoorCam C24, an indoor security camera we recommend that continues to provide sharp 2K-resolution video, multiple recording options, and solid motion and sound detection at a very low cost.  It&#8217;s currently discounted to $30 with an on-page coupon, which is about $10 off its usual going rate.  Elsewhere, our roundup includes a joint-low on the Ars-approved VR adventure <em>Half-Life: Alyx<\/em>, a handful of standout deals from Sony&#8217;s latest PlayStation Summer Sale, plus lower-than-usual prices on a Microsoft wireless mouse we like, high-end PCIe 4.0 SSDs for your PS5 or PC, and more.
