Save $100: Grab the 11-inch Apple iPad Air (M3, 128GB) while it’s back down at its record low price of $499 at Amazon as of June 2. The Apple tablet typically goes for $599, making this sale price a 17% discount.
The new iPad Airs came out just three months ago, but already the tablet is $100 off — and back down to its lowest price ever — for the second time since its release.
That means that as of June 2, you can grab the 11-inch iPad Air with 128GB of storage for just $499, instead of its regular $599, at Amazon. At the time of writing, this price is live on all of the four available iPad colorways. All of the other 11-inch Airs with WiFi are also marked down $100, but opting for the lowest available storage gets you the lowest price possible (and still a decent amount of storage).
The biggest difference between this iPad and previous generations is that it comes with an M3 chip designed for making Apple Intelligence (Apple’s AI) do its best and fastest work. It is worth mentioning that 2024’s iPad Air will also support Apple Intelligence as well.
Still, we recommend the M3 Air as the best iPad for most people, especially if you don’t already own a relatively new model. It’s not so overpowered (and overpriced) that it’d be ridiculous to use as a device mainly for streaming and reading, but it’s also powerful enough to be used by artists and other creatives.

The Air can also run for 14 hours on a single charge, has a landscape camera for taking FaceTime calls, and a 12MP front and rear camera. A refresh rate 60Hz and RAM above 8GB would have been nice, but for just $499, this is still a solid value for any tablet, Apple or otherwise.
