Apple’s new iPad Air with the M2 chipset is currently $30 off if you pre-order through Amazon.
The M2 is one of two major changes to the iPad Air this time around. According to Apple, the chipset is about 50 percent faster than the M1, so the latest model should be a noticeable zip over the previous generation. However, the iPad Pro is now significantly more powerful than the Air because of the higher-end models arriving this week new M4 chipsetsmaking them the first Apple devices to do so.
The display is the other major change for the iPad Air. Not only is the base model’s screen 0.1 inches larger, making it a neater 11 inches, but for the first time, a 13-inch version of the iPad Air is available.
