Amazon drops the 512GB 13-inch M4 iPad Pro to $1,300, but you can score an open-box unit with full warranty at $345 off too

$345 off/From $1,154

While we are still tracking one of the best deals we have spotted to date on the most affordable 11-inch model as “excellent condition” open-box units with full warranties dropped to $820 yesterday, Amazon also just knocked nearly $200 off the 512GB 13-inch M4 iPad Pro in brand-new condition. This is very close to the best deal we have tracked this year while ending somewhat of a drought in notable, straight cash discounts on the M4 Pro lineup. Details below. 

Amazon is now offering the 512GB 13-inch M4 iPad Pro down at $1,299.99 shipped in Space Black. This is $199 off the regular $1,499 list price and within $1 of the best deal we have tracked all year. This is in fact very close to the best price we have ever tracked since the latest M4 Pro lineup debuted last May – there were a couple drops to $1,150 at Amazon, but they didn’t last for more than a couple hours each. 

The only deal we can find for less on this model that we would actually recommend right now comes by way of an “excellent condition” open-box listing at Best Buy. It ships with a full 1-year Apple warranty and is currently selling for $1,154.99 shipped, or $345 off the regular $1,499 list price.

There’s nothing quite like a shiny brand new M4 iPad Pro, especially this model, but it’s hard to deny the serious savings on this option considering it comes with the full warranty, all of the accessories, Geek Squad verification, and in the best condition Best Buy offers for an open-box unit. 

I also want to quickly highlight this particular configuration, whichever purchase option you might go with. For me, the 13-inch M4 iPad Pro with the 512GB of storage is the very best model. Not the most expensive, or the most affordable, but the best. The 512GB of storage is right down the middle – not so much that you’re paying an absolute fortune, but also not the entry model either. This is the 13-incher too – Apple’s thinnest tablet ever (it is even thinner than the 11-inch). So you’re scoring a config with a storage setup hitting right in the sweet spot on what is for me (and many others) the nicest tablet ever made.
