Best Buy now offering first cash deal on most affordable new M4 iPad Air at $559, or as low as $249 with trade

Alongside offering the best deals on pre-orders for the new MacBook Neo, M5 MacBook Air, and M5 Pro MacBook Pro, Best Buy is also getting particularly aggressive with the brand new M4-equipped iPad Air lineup Apple just unveiled. While pre-orders listings for the new iPad are live at Amazon, Best Buy has now slashed the price on the new M4 model with deals starting down at $559 shipped for everyone (you do not need to be a Plus or Total member). 

M4 iPad Air pre-order deals

As you can see in the list below, Best Buy has decided to knock $40 off the most affordable M4 iPad Air you can buy – this is the best straight up cash deal around. Now, all Best Buy Plus and Total members can score any model at $50 off, but the 11-inch M4 can be had at $40 off in all four colors even without a membership: 

  • 11-inch M4 iPad Air 128GB $559 (Reg. $599) or $50 off for members
  • 11-inch M4 iPad Air 256GB $699 or $50 off for members
  • 11-inch M4 iPad Air 512GB $899 or $50 off for members
  • 11-inch M4 iPad Air 512GB1TB $1,099 or $50 off for members
  • 13-inch M4 iPad Air 128GB $799 or $50 off for members

  • 13-inch M4 iPad Air 512GB $1,099 or $50 off for members
  • 13-inch M4 iPad Air 1TB $1,299 or $50 off for members

With all of that said, if you do have some gear to trade in against the new M4 iPad Air, you’ll want to see what Best Buy will offer you first. There are reports suggesting it is offering as much as 20% more than Apple with some gear, so be sure to compare there. That on top of the discounts detailed above can yield the tablet as low as $249 or less right now.
