There are exciting times ahead for anyone looking for the best tablet deals with a huge discount one of the best options around – even before we've properly entered the Black Friday deals season. Today, you can buy the latest iPad Air 11-inch (M2) at Amazon for $599.99 (was $699). The same $100 discount is also available on the bigger 13-inch (M2) model at Amazon.
Previously, the iPad Air has occasionally dipped from its $699 price tag but only to around $650 so this is the biggest discount we’ve seen yet on the latest model. The iPad Air fits in a unique space between the iPad 10.9 and the iPad Pro; it's much more powerful than the iPad 10.9 but a more affordable option than the potentially excessive iPad Pro. It fits comfortably as one of the best iPads for students thanks to its versatility.
Today’s best iPad Air deal
The iPad Air isn’t in our look at the best tablets but I’d still recommend it. As our iPad Air review explains, it’s “bigger, faster, and the best bet for your big-tablet dreams”. That goes for the 13-inch model but it’s appropriate for the slightly smaller version too. “Artists will love it, as will creatives with an itch to make music and video,” the review notes.
There’s formidable power here but it maintains excellent battery life alongside its huge screen. The only downside is its cameras haven’t been upgraded. Our comparison between the iPad Air (2024) and iPad Air (2022) breaks things down well, but this is a good purchase.
There are plenty of other iPad deals if you’d prefer a different model. Alternatively, go for the iPad Air and remember to add on one of the Apple Pencil deals happening to gain plenty of functionality.
