Amazon Prime Day is here, but Best Buy might have beaten the retail giant as far as iPad deals are concerned. It has $200 off Apple's 5th-generation iPad Air, reducing it from $599.99 to $399.99. We've only seen such a big saving on the 2022 M1-chipped tablet once before, in May, also at Best Buy (For more options, see our guide to the best Prime Day Apple deals).

If you're in the UK, the best price is at Amazon, where the iPad Air 5th gen is reduced from £669 to £479 – also a record saving.

Save $200: Best Buy ran this deal for a few days in May, and now it's back just in time to beat Amazon's Prime Day. Considering that this is now only slightly more expensive than the basic iPad 10, we don't expect the price to fall further.
