Just in time for the Back to School season, Amazon is offering the newest (7th generation) Apple iPad Air 11″ M3 128GB tablet for just $449 after a hefty $150 off discount. That’s the best price I’ve seen for this 2025 model with the M3 chip and beats out Amazon Prime Day’s price by $50. I don’t expect this price to drop any further for Black Friday.
