Amazon is dropping prices on iPads — get the iPad Air with M3 chip for $150 off
SAVE $150: As of August 7, get the Apple iPad Air with M3 chip for $449 and save $150. That knocks 25% off its $599 price tag.
The line between Apple's tablets and laptops is becoming strikingly thin. Now that the brand has put its M series of chips into both iPads and MacBooks, both devices offer similar processing speeds. So if you're looking for a new laptop or tablet as you head back to school, iPads are a great candidate, especially the iPad Air. And there are plenty of deals on Apple iPad models today.
As of August 7, get the iPad Air with M3 chip for just $449. That knocks $150 off its list price of $599 for 25% off. This isn't the first iPad deal we've spotted this week, as Amazon has dropped the price on the 10th generation model down to $349 and the iPad Mini is down to $399. But what makes the iPad Air so special?
Among the iPads currently on sale, the iPad Air is the most expensive. It's just about the same size as the iPad 10th generation, but it has a much better core processor. The iPad 10th generation and iPad Mini both use Apple's A series chips, which are zippy and great but made for iPhones. Meanwhile, the iPad Air is using the M3 chip, which goes into the brand's MacBooks. That more advanced processor means you can get more work done. It's a better fit for creatives looking to edit photos and video or do graphic design work on the tablet.
Right now, get the iPad Air with M3 chip, a tablet built for creatives, for just $449 and save $150.
