Launched in March of 2022, the 5th generation iPad Air is getting a significant price reduction on Amazon, now available at an impressive US$100 discount, bringing the 64GB variant’s price down to US$499. This discount is applicable across all versions of the tablet, extending to those seeking higher storage capacities or cellular connectivity.
Boasting a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina IPS display and a modern design in line with the entire iPad lineup, this tablet features sleek uniform bezels surrounding the screen. The screen itself boasts a resolution of 1640 x 2360, allowing for a pixel density of 264. While not as bright as Apple’s Mini-LEDs, it’s still plenty bright for most use cases at 500 nits. The powerhouse behind its performance is Apple’s M1 chip, featuring 8 CPU cores along with 8 GPU cores ensuring future-proof performance and effortlessly handling any tasks users may throw its way.
Unlike the iPad Pros, the iPad Air lacks Face ID support; however, it compensates with Touch ID functionality, providing users with an alternative biometric authentication method. For a more in-depth overview of this device, prospective buyers are encouraged to explore our comprehensive review.
