Score an M2 iPad Air for less than the price of a mini 7 – Amazon knocks $100+ off all models starting at $497

$100 off/From $497

Update: Alongside the ongoing straight up $100 price drops across much of the new M2 iPad Air lineup detailed below, select models have now dropped even lower with pricing now kicking off at $497 shipped – less than the MSRP on the new less powerful iPad mini 7.

Apple’s latest M2 iPad Air managed slip by the fall Prime Day without seeing any major price drops, but Amazon is now offering straight up $100 discounts across the most affordable models in the lineup. The M2 Air deals haven’t been nearly as deep as some of the M4 iPad Pro models that have seen $150, $200, and even more in savings since release back in May, so a $100 deal on the more accessible M2 models is actually quite notable. This undercuts the summer Prime Day offer by $50 on most models to deliver the lowest prices we can find starting from $497 shipped – that means you’re getting an 11-inch M2 iPad Air for the same price as the new iPad mini A17 Pro (although they are also seeing some slightly price drops right now). 

As you can see from the updated pricing down below, Amazon has now knocked at least $99 off all iPad Air configurations, including the Wi-Fi + Cell models, with $100 drops on select models.

These prices Trae about as low as it gets for the more accessible models – the 128GB and 256GB configurations – and make for one of the best opportunities we have tracked to date to score one of the Apple’s 2024 iPad Air models with this sort of selection at a discount. Again, you’re looking at prices that are on par with the new iPad mini 7 MSRP on a machine that carries a much more powerful M2 chip.
