Yes and the M1 Air 5 was recently $60 off I think as well for pre-order. Air 5 doesn't just have the M1, but also a RAM increase to 8 GB from 4 GB in Air 4.
Old model old chip. New M1 Air will be available in 2 days for $599.
Don't think anything I am getting in new is worth $150 more for me..good deal

Depends on your needs. The M1 chip is much faster and more efficient, basically guaranteeing your iPad is future-proofed for the next five years. I own a couple M1 devices and I think they are excellent value for the money.

I am hoping this drops another 100. Then I will bite for the kids. M1 is overkill on iPad but would future proof it big time.

Definitely depends on your needs. The M1 plus increase in RAM to 8GB is a pretty big jump. And if you use it a lot for video calls, the wide angle lens with Center Stage is a step up too.

If you want something that has a lot of head room for gaming, productivity, and support, $150 more isn't that bad. But with only 64GB of base storage, if you're looking for gaming and productivity, you might want to bump up to 256GB. At that point you're in the iPad Pro price range. Looking at it from that perspective, saving the $150 and getting the 2020 model could make a lot of sense if it fits what someone needs.

Honestly, this is overkill for kids. Just go for the $329 iPad and it's more than they need

My hope was this would get closer to that price and have better specs then that one. That was the thought but we will see haha.

We recently got an iPad with the new front camera and found it was a big downgrade optically. It's basically a fisheye lens that is software corrected for distortion, so a lot of detail is lost and skin is rendered in a waxy, unnatural appearance. Unless you move around a lot in video calls, the tracking is a gimmick. It's unfortunate there are no more new iPads with the old front lenses that are much sharper. The cynical side of me thinks it's just a cost-cutting move by Apple since the fisheye lens designs are cheaper to make.

Likely not when you're replacing a 1.2mp sensor with a 12mp one.

Definitely do wait for the M1 version. We're talking wildly, wildly faster CPU/GPU and 2x memory. I know I'm going to sound insane but I think the M1 will be usable for tablet-level performance for literally 6 or 7 years, maybe more. It's that far ahead of the competition right now.
