Launch day: First deals now live on brand new M3 iPad Air pre-orders at up to $70 off, deals from $559

$70 off/From $559

We have already detailed some massive trade-in savings on the new M3 iPad Air – you can flip an M2 model and save up to $650 off your pre-order of the new model. On top of that, Best Buy’s paid Plus and Total members can knock $50 off the pre-orders with no trade needed, but Amazon just served up the first cash deal anywhere for the rest of us with no strings attached. Now available to anyone and everyone interested, Amazon is now offering up to $70 off the new M3 iPad Air pre-orders ahead of release on March 12 with deals starting from $559 on the 11-inch model and $649 on the 13-inch. Details below. 

Again you will score a lower price at Best Buy if you have an older iPad to trade-in against your new M3 Air, but you’re otherwise going to find the best straight up cash deals with no strings attached over at Amazon, and still land your new Air on release day.
