Apple’s iPad Air has traditionally been the top choice for those who want an upscale tablet experience short of going all the way to the iPad Pro. Apple’s latest 11-inch iPad Air, which debuted in March, is already causing a splash on this Prime Day with its price reduction that puts it below last year’s model.
Amazon is currently offering the new iPad Air for $479, a discount from its usual $599: This 20% discount marks a new all-time low for this model, and makes it one of the most compelling Apple deals of the summer.

The 2025 iPad Air comes equipped with Apple’s M3 chip which is a powerhouse built for Apple Intelligence that delivers impressive speed and efficiency. Whether watching high-definition movies or juggling numerous apps at once, the M3 chip ensures everything runs seamlessly. The chip is designed for advanced creative work and graphics-rich games, so iPad Air is a reliable work and play partner. With 128GB of storage, you’ll have more than enough room for your most-used apps.
The other highlight is the 11-inch Liquid Retina screen with its vivid color, precise detail and wide viewing angles. With a resolution of 2360 by 1640 pixels at 264 pixels per inch, every photo and video is detailed and lifelike. Components like P3 wide color, True Tone, and ultra-low reflectivity present movies in great light.
Apple has also equipped the iPad Air with top-of-the-line front and rear cameras: Its 12MP Center Stage front camera is ideal for video calls and selfies with auto-framing so you stay in the frame as you shift positions. At the back, the 12MP wide camera with True Tone flash is ideal for capturing sharp photos and recording 4K video.
With Wi-Fi 6E, you enjoy incredibly fast wireless speeds for streaming, downloading, and cloud-based productivity. The USB-C port lets you connect a wide variety of accessories, external screens, and storage devices, giving you even more freedom to choose how you use your tablet. Touch ID is built into the top button and allows you to unlock your iPad Air, sign in to apps and authenticate secure purchases with just your fingerprint.
This Prime Day deal is unlikely to last long, so it’s a great time to grab the latest iPad Air at its lowest price ever.
