Get the Newest Apple iPads at the Best Prices for Father’s Day

This year Father’s Day lands on June 15. There’s still plenty of time to shop around for a great gift for dad, and what better gift than a brand new iPad. Amazon has dropped the prices on a couple of the newest models ahead of this momentous of occasions. The Apple iPad, a March 2025 release, is down to $299 after a $50 off instant discount. Both 11″ and 13″ Apple iPad Air, also March 2025 releases, are down to $499 and $699, respectively, after a $100 off instant discount. Sizeable discounts on currently model iPads are relatively uncommon, so get in on this deal while it lasts.

$50 Off New 2025 Apple iPad 10.9″ (A16) Tablet

For most people, the iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best model to get because it offers all the benefits of iOS as well as snappy performance at an affordable price. The current generation model was released on March 12, 2025, over two years after the previous generation (October 2022). The upgrades include a more powerful processor (A16 vs A14), more RAM (6GB vs 4GB), and more storage (128GB vs 64GB), all. Best of all, the launch price of $349 is actually lower than when the previous generation model was released, which was $399.

The specs that have carried over are the 10.9″ Liquid Retina 2360×1640 (264ppi) display, USB Type-C charging, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and the same camera. It’s also compatible with the Magic Folio keyboard so you can convert it into a mini laptop for better workflow, making it one of the best iPads for students, and the newer Apple Pencil with USB-C.

$100 Off the 2025 iPad Air M3 Tablet

Amazon is offering the 7th generation Apple iPad Air M3 tablets at the lowest prices I’ve seen so far. The 11″ model is down to $499 and the 13″ model is down to $699, both after a $100 off instant discount. That’s the best price we’ve seen for this 2025 model with the M3 chip. The 7th gen iPad Pro Air was released in March and is the current generation model. It’s only one year newer than the 6th gen model and the only major upgrade is the jump from the M2 to the M3 chip.
