A slight pre-order discount for the new iPad Air models for existing Costco members. I believe that there's $5 shipping for each order.

iPad Air 11-inch, Wi-Fi (M2 chip) - $569.99

It's cheaper if you just go to the education store on Apple.com. They don't require verification at all.
Pro 100%. Once you go 120mhz, 60Hz is jarring and you're not saving much. You paid good money, enjoy it as in the end, most of us using it to watch Netflix, surf, and play games. Lol


Unless you're the 0.5% who actually do real video work.
128gb as the base model. Apple is finally turning the corner.

Absolutely no reason to buy these over a previous gen pro model unless you can't find one. I think even the m1 ipad pro's are a better buy especially if you find it at a lesser price than these.

Need some opinions. I recently bought the 2022 Pro 11 for $650 from Costco recent deal. Should I return it in place for this? Put yourself in my position.
Your screen has the mini-led tech that this new iPad Air model does not have. This is a lame update by Apple. Not very different besides the M2 chip. Same cameras except the orientation has changed, and same IPS non mini-led screen panel. You already have the M2 in your 2022 pro, there's no upgrade for you really.

1 TB should be the base model. GB is so 90s.

Not sure how much of a difference this will make to anyone on here, but,.... Emulators on the App Store now including Delta.

As these mature, we may see a point where I actually care about upgrading my Air 4 like the other commenter. Not yet though.

No, keep the 2022 Pro. The 120hz display + FaceID is worth having.

Keep the pro. It supports docking stations. I plug mine into my desktop dock and it acts like a computer with an extra monitor.

Thank you for posting this. Somehow I just had Best Buy price match it.
I went to a BestBuy store to PM they refused it! I came back home and successfully PMed through chat. Going to pick up in store soon (the same store) ...

If my 2018 iPad Pro would allow multi-window stage manager on an external monitor I'd have 0 reason to want to upgrade. It's still fast for what I need.

Thanks I did the same. No micro centers in AZ and they still matched the price.
