Best Amazon Big Spring Sale Apple iPad deals:
Amazon's Big Spring Sale is officially live from March 25 to 31. This event typically ushers in discounts on all sorts of items, giving you an early-year treat before the major sales events get going later in the year (like Prime Day). That even includes Apple products, a lot of which have fallen to record-low prices this week.
If you’ve been eyeing an iPad, we've spotted discounts of up to $200 across Apple's tablet lineup — even the just-updated M4 iPad Air. (Its predecessor is way cheaper, though.) We’ve pulled together the best live deals to make things easier. Note: Offers marked with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low.

Why we like it
We consider the iPad Air to be the best Apple tablet for most people: It's great for everyday activities like streaming and reading, but it's also powerful enough to use like a laptop. You can get an 11-inch M3 model with cellular connectivity for just $549.99 during the Big Spring Sale, or about $200 off — its biggest discount ever. The newer M4 version without cellular is $5 more expensive, and you're only looking at a small gen-over-gen speed boost there.
