Apple is rumored to be preparing a refresh to the iPad Air with a faster processor and better camera, but the current model is still one of the best tablets you can buy. And now it’s cheaper than ever: Best Buy is selling the iPad Air with 64GB of storage for $500 in all colors, the best price we’ve ever seen.
The iPad Air got a home button-less makeover in 2020, with slim-bezels, Touch ID built into the power button, USB-C, and support for the Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard. In our 4.5-star review, we said the iPad Air “gives you enough of the iPad Pro experience for most users at starting price $200 lower.”
And now it’s $300 lower. So go grab one before the price goes back up.
Michael Simon has been covering Apple since the iPod was the iWalk. His obsession with technology goes back to his first PC—the IBM Thinkpad with the lift-up keyboard for swapping out the drive. He’s still waiting for that to come back in style tbh.
