Apple's 13-inch iPad Pro with M4 chip is at its lowest price yet, dropping $249 during Amazon's Prime Day sale.
Amazon has the 512GB Wi-Fi model of the 13-inch iPad Pro M4 listed at $1,249.99, down from the standard $1,499 retail price — a 17% discount. The deal is live as of June 23. This particular configuration includes the Ultra Retina XDR display, Wi-Fi 6E, Face ID, and the M4 chip. No Magic Keyboard or Apple Pencil Pro is bundled; those are still sold separately, and each one will run you another $100-plus.
At $1,250, this is still an expensive tablet — more than most mid-range laptops — but it is the lowest this model has ever sold for, which matters if you've been waiting. The M4 chip is the same silicon Apple put in the base MacBook Pro, so the hardware case for replacing a laptop is more credible than it used to be; the weaker argument remains iPadOS itself, which still limits multitasking and file management in ways macOS does not.
Prime Day iPad deals come around every year, but a $249 discount on a flagship Apple product is uncommon. Apple rarely discounts its own devices, so third-party retailers doing it during high-traffic sale events is typically the only way to get here. If the 13-inch feels like more screen than you need, the 11-inch iPad Pro M4 has also seen discounts this Prime Day.
