Most affordable 11-inch M4 iPad Pro cell model hits one of its best prices ever at $209 off

$209 off/$990

With the new M5 iPad Pro models now up for pre-order we are starting some particularly notable discounts on elect M4 variants. Yesterday’s giant $444 price drop on the high-end 11-inch model is still live, but today we are turning our attention towards hundreds in savings on one of the most affordable models in the lineup. 

Amazon is now offering the 11-inch M4 iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cell model down at $989.95 shipped. This is an original $1,199 machine now sitting down at the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon. 

While the roughly $210 in savings here isn’t anywhere near the $440+ we have on the aforementioned 2TB model, that is par for the course here. Over the last year or more, it is the far more expensive iPad configurations that see the deepest discounts. While something closer to $350 or $450 is really where you want to be on the 1TB and 2TB models, anything more than $180 or $200 off the list price on the most affordable 256GB and 512GB models is notable, and that’s what we have here today. 

Over the life cycle of the M4 iPad Pro, which debuted in May of 2024, the most affordable configurations saw a countless number of $100 price drops, even $150 in the early days at times, and then it was the straight $200 cash discounts that made headlines thereafter. Today we are right in the sweet spot there at slightly better than $200 off the list. 

While the M5 is here, and we might have some lighter $50 and $100 discounts on the horizon, historical indications suggest we aren’t likely to see $200 price drops across the lineup until 2026 at this point. You never really know with Black Friday around the corner now, but as someone who has tracked these things for many years, I wouldn’t go out of my way to bet on it.
