Amazon is knocking up to $149 off Apple's M4 iPad Air, the deepest discount yet since Apple raised tablet prices this summer.
The cuts span both the 11-inch and 13-inch M4 iPad Air lines. The 11-inch model now starts at $649 and the 13-inch at $849, each $100 off list price. The steepest markdown hits the 1TB Wi-Fi 13-inch model, down $149. Every discount applies automatically at checkout, no coupon or membership required, and Best Buy is matching several of the same prices. The hardware itself hasn't changed from the 2025 lineup: same M4 chip, C1X modem, and N1 chip enabling Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.
These are the lowest verified prices on the current iPad Air since Apple's summer price increase, giving buyers who waited a real chance to catch a break. Two retailers matching the same cuts suggests this is a sustained markdown rather than a one-day flash sale.
Still, being the lowest price since a price hike is a low bar. It mostly just means Apple gave, and Amazon is now giving a little back.
