Apple iPad and iPad Air See Price Cuts Before Father's Day

Father's Day is on June 15 this year, giving you plenty of time to find the perfect gift for Dad. What could be better than a brand-new iPad? Amazon has already reduced prices on several of the latest models ahead of the occasion. The Apple iPad, released in March 2025, is now just $299 thanks to an instant $50 discount. Both the 11-inch and 13-inch Apple iPad Air models, also released in March 2025, have been lowered to $499 and $699 respectively after a $100 instant discount. Significant discounts on current-generation iPads are rare, so take advantage of this offer while it lasts.

For most users, the standard iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best choice. It brings all the advantages of iOS and delivers smooth performance at an affordable price. The current model launched on March 12, 2025, over two years after the previous version from October 2022. Key upgrades include a faster processor (A16 instead of A14), more RAM (6GB vs. 4GB), and increased storage (128GB vs. 64GB). Even better, the starting price of $349 is actually lower than the previous generation's initial price of $399.

The device keeps the same 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display with 2360x1640 resolution (264 ppi), USB-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 support, and cameras. It also works with the Magic Folio keyboard, letting you turn it into a mini laptop for improved productivity—making it one of the top iPads for students—as well as the newer USB-C Apple Pencil.

Released in March, the 7th gen iPad Air is the current model. It's only one year newer than the 6th generation, with the major update being the shift from the M2 to the M3 chip.
