Friday’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break deals are kicking off with M3 iPad Air. While we have already detailed the pre-order deals available on M5 MacBook Pro and M5 iPad Pro right here, Amazon is now offering its best price ever on this 13-inch 512GB M3 iPad Air config at $250 off the list. And now, joining Amazon’s price drops on new units, Best Buy’s open-box deals on the black Apple Watch Ultra 3 are up to $121 off alongside the return of M4 Mac mini down at $499, AirPods 4 with ANC back at the $119 low, and our exclusive deals on these brand new leather M5 iPad Air cases. Everything else awaits below.
Amazon just dropped this 512GB M3 iPad Air to a new all-time low at $250 off
The ongoing trend of Amazon undercutting its own Prime Day deals on Apple’s M3 iPad Air lineup continues this morning. We still have the gray 13-inch 256GB at a new all-time low and now we have the upgraded 13-inch M3 iPad Air with the 512GB storage setup at nearly $250 off the list price.
Amazon is now offering the 13-inch 512GB M3 iPad Air with the cell upgrade down at $999.68 shipped. This is a $1,249 configuration at just over $249 off the list price to deliver a new Amazon all-time low.
As of right now, and as has been the case with most of this week’s particularly notable iPad Air deals, this deal is only live on one color, the Starlight model – a color that has really started to grow on me across 2025. That said, none of the other color options are down this low right now or have ever been down this low on Amazon since release earlier this past spring.
Just about all M3 iPad Air configurations were $150 off for Prime Day last week, the model featured here this morning included. When it comes to the most affordable base models, that’s about as good as it has gotten. But as alluded to above and as exemplified by our coverage this week, a number of the upgraded configurations in select colors are starting to undercut the deals we spotted for Prime Day to land at new Amazon all-time lows and this 512GB 13-inch is exactly that.
The M3 iPad Air lineup more than likely won’t see a refresh until spring 2026 at this point, but even then the M3 iPad Air will remain a great better-than-mid-range tablet in my opinion. The difference between it and the M2 isn’t exactly glaring and chances are the same will ring true when Apple presumably injects the lineup with an M4 chip next March.
