At the time of writing, only Rose Gold is available at this $89 off discount price. Amazon sometimes adds more colors to sales like this as they go on, so there is a chance we'll see more discounts on the iPad Air in the coming days and weeks.

For the 64GB model, we're tracking the same sale that we've seen on Amazon for the past few months. You can get the 64GB Wi-Fi iPad Air in multiple colors for $549.00, down from $599.00. Both iPad Air models are shipped and sold by Amazon, and are in stock.

They have to. The 11 inch 2021 iPad Pro M1 128gb (still enough memory for most people, but better screen with better contrast and pro-motion, face ID, lidar, cameras, M1 speed and more) is priced at $799 but has already been seen on Amazon for $749. Considering they have held the 2020 iPad Air 256gb on sale for a long time at $699 the $50 dollar difference to the sale price of the Pro was too small... most would go for the Pro at only $50 more.

The iPad Air is a great machine but it should be priced nearly $100 less across the board standard to separate it from the Pro.

This or 2018 refurb iPad Pro for light video and photo editing?
FWIW, the screen of an iPad Pro is much better - deeper blacks and better contrast & ProMotion. The only thing that is better on Air 4 is the TouchID, if this is useful for you.

The iPad Pro 11 with 128gb is still a better deal. You can usually find them on sale for $749.
