Surprise, surprise! As announced Tuesday, the 11-inch M3 iPad Air is now available for preorder starting from $599 at Apple and go-to retailers Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H.
Not only am I sharing where to buy Apple's latest tablet, but also the best M3 iPad Air deals ahead of its March 12, 2025 release date.
For example, you can get the 13-inch M3 iPad Air for $749 at Amazon. That's $50 off its $799 launch price and marks the 13-inch M3 iPad Air's lowest price ever. You don't often see an outright preorder discount on an Apple product. It joins the ranks of the best iPad deals this month.
What's new with the M3 iPad Air besides the incremental processor upgrade?
Well, Apple's M3 chip brings advanced graphics to the series for the first time. If you like to game on your tablet, you'll be happy to know the M3 iPad Air supports dynamic caching, hardware-accelerated mesh shading, and ray tracing.
And what's more, the M3's speedier Neural Engine lets you get the most out of Apple Intelligence. According to Apple in a news release Tuesday, the M3 chip is up to 35 percent faster than the M1, and its 9-core GPU provides up to 40 percent faster graphics.
Like last year’s iPad Air release, the 7th generation Pad Air is available in two sizes, 11-inches and 13-inches. Storage options range from 128GB to 1TB.
The new M3 iPad Air replaces the M2 iPad Air and brings a host of enhancements to Apple's mid-range tablet series.
