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.

its price vs performance.

AIr 4 still good for 5 years for daily normal use. we get $150+Tax saver here.

Unless there is a need for M1 chip Air5, for most people iAir4 is good enough. yes, we do miss few options.. but i am thinking like if i really need M1 chip iPad, i would go for Pro (may be some extra than Air5) instead of Air5 if i want to spend $600+


AIr is not a right model in iPad lineup.. but to me, Apple want to keep an iPad in every $200-$250 price differences and keep on improving those models.

If there is a real need for Air5 for a person who spending $599+tax. it would be better choice to stretch little and go for iPad Pro 11 inches 3rd gen for $769+tax at wholesales stores. iPad pro have plenty of super options and worth for money. like pro motion, lidar, dual cameras, better resolution

i believe air4 at $450 is nice deal

I'm very surprised to hear that somehow the 12MP front camera in your new iPad is producing worse quality than the 7MP front camera in your previous iPad. I've literally never seen this reported by anyone else, anywhere.

Walmart Air 4 refurb was $399 then, $439 now.

I returned a $399 refurb to get a new $559 Air 5 now (price matched BB to Walmart, which is sold out--and even BB is now backordered to April 9 on Space Gray).

My use case doesn't need M1 or more than 64GB, but future trade-in value likely makes the added cost a wash. In the meantime I get to use whatever new apps take advantage of the processor, a "new, not refurbed" warranty and the good feeling of having the "latest, greatest" Air.

The jump to 256GB or to Pro is steeper, and my use case doesn't justify it. I started out with a $500 budget for an iPad. I went over a little bit, but I won't go over by *that* much.

Ummm
2 gen old iPad Air had a 3.5 mm jack
At that point it was only the pro models which removed the audio jack
And Air 2 wasn't in this form factor.

The new M1 iPad Air also has 8 GB ram which is an upgrade from 4 GB on this previous Gen model. The future proofing alone is worth getting the newest one I think.

In this day and age, why are they making anything with only 64gb? And the upcharges for small increases in memory are outrageous.
When I can buy a single 128gb microSD card for $16 retail, a company like Apple is probably paying like a dollar or less, and then charging a hundred bucks extra. It's wild,

As consumers, we should demand that all devices have an SD card slot, so we aren't at the mercy of these price gouging companies. Memory is dirt cheap. They are making a killing.

For me at least, my iPad is a tertiary device after my computer and phone. I mostly use it for marking up pdfs for work, internet browsing, and have a few movies downloaded when I travel. No need for anything more than 64GB.

As a consumer you can simply not buy it.

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.
Also 8GB of RAM in the new one vs. 4GB in the old one.

Because they want people to upgrade to the 256GB Air or the base 128GB Pro.

Wow, did not realize that. That is a big deal and totally the real deal for the latest Gen. Would say even bigger deal than the M1 chip.
