Amazon is now offering the 13-inch M2 iPad Air 128GB with the Wi-Fi + Cell upgrade from $649 shipped. You’re looking at an originally $949 configuration that is now seeing a major $300 price drop and landing at a new Amazon all-time low, but there are some things to consider here. Details below. 

Today’s deal is the best we have tracked on Amazon and the lowest price we can find from a reputable source anywhere right now. 

This is the most affordable M2 iPad Air configuration with the 13-inch display, just with the always connected cell upgrade. That said, and even if you don’t care about the cell capabilities, it is now well below the price of the M2 128GB without it. But….

How does this deal compare to the newer 2025 M3 iPad Air?

The M3 iPad Air lineup happens to be sitting at its best prices to date right now with $150 price drops across the entire lineup, including the otherwise comparable 128GB 13-inch Wi-Fi + Cell model:

As you can see above, today’s M2 deal is indeed $150 under the M3 cell model, but something that might not have been immediately apparent is how pricey the cell upgrade is – today’s deal on the M2 cell model is particularly great at $300 off, but it is the same price as the 128GB M3 13-inch at $649

All of that is to say this: If you don’t care about the cell connectivity, you might as well grab the brand new M3 iPad Air while it’s down at the same price instead. The $649 price of entry on the 13-inch M3 is indeed the lowest we have ever tracked and is, by just about any standard, a great deal for a machine that just released earlier this year. 

Here’s how pricing breakdown across the entire M3 lineup right now:
