Best Buy drops M1 iPad Air 5 to lowest-ever price
Many recent deals have sprung up on iPads, as a new batch appears to be just about to launch. But do you really need the latest and greatest? Some people insist on it, but others wait for just this kind of bargain to come along.
But when it’s the lowest-ever price as far as we can tell, don’t be surprised if you don’t get tons of choices.
This 2022 M1 iPad Air 5 is the 64GB model with Wi-Fi only and it’s available in one color only, starlight. But still, that’s a nice tablet.
I’ve been the proud owner of an M1 iPad Air with 256GB unified memory since they came out in 2022, and I have no complaints. The tablet has become my frequent companion, especially for reading news and books, but also for music and video. If you don’t want to pay full price for the latest models coming out, this is a great option.
2022 M1 iPad Air (5th gen) features:
- 10.9-inch screen
- 2360 x 1640 resolution
- M1 chip with Neural Engine
- Storage: 64GB
- Works with Siri voice assistant
- Bluetooth, Wi-Fi wireless connectivity
- Lithium-polymer battery (10 hours use per charge)
- Touch ID sensor
- 12MP front and back cameras
- Front-facing camera 1080p
And it normally costs $599.99! But that $200-off deal is Monday only, so act fast.
Other colors of that 64GB model are available at $100 off in various colors and the 256GB models are also $100 off in a choice of colors.
