SAVE $200: As of Aug. 12, the 13-inch Apple iPad Pro (M4, 256GB, WiFi) is on sale for $1,099 at Amazon. That's down from $1,299, saving you $200 on list price.


A top-tier iPad deal doesn’t come around too often, especially on the latest model.

Amazon has dropped the price of the new 13-inch Apple iPad Pro (M4) with 256GB of storage to $1,099, shaving $200 off its $1,299 list price. That’s a rare discount for a device this new, and given Apple’s track record, you probably won’t see much better until the holidays.

Powered by Apple’s blazing-fast M4 chip, this iPad Pro is built to handle everything from 4K video editing to running next-gen AI features via Apple Intelligence. The Ultra Retina XDR display is nothing short of gorgeous, with true-to-life colors, extreme contrast, and buttery-smooth ProMotion refresh rates that make everything feel instantly responsive. 13-inch might sound huge, but for creatives and a cheeky streaming binge in bed, it's a fantastic bit of real estate (slaps iPad Pro box).

  • Price: $1,099 $1,299 (save $200)

  • Retailer: Amazon

  • Display: 13-inch Ultra Retina XDR, 2752 x 2064 resolution

  • Processor: Apple M4 chip (up to 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU)

  • Storage: 256GB

  • Connectivity: WiFi 6E

  • Battery Life: All-day

  • Cameras: 12MP Wide (rear), 12MP Ultra Wide (front)

  • Special Features: Apple Pencil Pro compatibility, LiDAR scanner, Face ID, ProMotion, P3 wide color

You can look forward to sketching with Apple Pencil Pro (which is also has $30 crossed out on Amazon), multitasking in Stage Manager, or gaming with console-level visuals. M4 iPad Pro is designed to keep up without breaking a sweat, I even used to sculpt 3D models for 3D printing a year back, and that was an older generation iPad Pro. Its all-day battery life and ultra-thin build mean you can carry it anywhere without compromise too.

And it’s not just a productivity machine; the 12MP cameras, LiDAR scanner, and four-speaker audio system make it a creative powerhouse, whether you’re shooting 4K ProRes video or diving into AR experiences. Apple make some of the best tablets on the market today and have been doing so for over 15 years now, so grabbing a discount on their current flagship iPad is always a wise choice.
