Amazon just dropped the Apple iPad Air to its lowest-ever price — save $199 during the spring sale
As of March 25, the Mashable-tested Apple iPad Air 11-inch (M3) is down to $549.99 in the Amazon Big Spring Sale. Not only is that $199.01 off the list price of $749, but it's also the lowest-price ever for this device, beating the previous record by about fifty bucks.
So, if you’ve been looking to add a new iPad to your arsenal of smart devices, now’s the moment to strike. Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, which officially launched today, has delivered a ton of Apple deals. But so far, this is the one that’s really caught our eye — thanks in part to its stunning Liquid Retina Display and our first-hand experience with it.
When Apple released the M1 version of the iPad Air back in 2022, we said that it was too powerful. And that's quadruply true for the new M4 version that was just released a few weeks ago. Honestly, this previous-gen iPad Air is right in the sweet spot, with a relatively affordable price tag and a genuine discount.
We've practically composed poems to this tablet's design in our reviews over the years. The iPad Air is incredibly thin and light, and until it's capable of folding, it's hard to imagine how this tablet could get much sleeker. The only thing it's really missing is the HDR and OLED display of the iPad Pro, which also costs a lot more.
It’s not all about looks, of course. That stunning display needs power, which comes in the form of Apple’s advanced M3 chip with support for Apple Intelligence (which will be important when the new AI Siri makes its debut later this year).
Other features include Touch ID, an all-day battery, and great tools for graphic designers. And as a lightweight Air model, it’s easy to take in your bag — perfect for commuters or anyone who works on-the-go. The 12MP camera is also perfect for high-quality video calls and general snaps.
Don’t miss the Apple iPad Air 11-inch in the Amazon Big Spring Sale. Now reduced to just $549.99, its lowest ever price for savings of $199.01.
