Amazon Drops M4 iPad Air to All-Time Lows in Wide iPad Sale

Retail competition during seasonal sales is driving rare early markdowns on Apple's mid-range tablet.

Overview

  • Multiple M4 iPad Air models are back at their lowest tracked prices at Amazon, including the 11-inch 128GB at $520, the 13-inch 256GB at $789.99, and the 11-inch 256GB Wi‑Fi + Cellular at $799.
  • The 13-inch M4 iPad Air with 256GB returned to $789.99 with all four colors reported in stock after some briefly showed as unavailable.
  • Amazon’s broader iPad sale also features the current 11-inch iPad (A16) 128GB at $299 and discounts on M5 iPad Pro variants reaching up to $228 off.
  • New clearance cuts on the prior M3 iPad Air appeared today, with the 11-inch Wi‑Fi + Cellular 1TB model down $400 from list to $849 and other M3 cellular configurations hitting new lows.
  • These prices stand out because the M4 iPad Air launched in March, and such deep early-cycle deals are uncommon, with rapid stock shifts and time-limited listings shaping what buyers can get; the M4 uses Apple’s laptop-class chip and supports Apple Intelligence, while the A16 iPad is entry-level and the M5 Pro targets power users.
