Best Buy this week has steep $100 discounts on every M1 iPad Air model, with prices starting at $499.99 for the 64GB Wi-Fi tablet. These deals follow in the wake of Apple's announcement of an event coming in May, which is expected to include refreshed iPad Air models with M2 chips.

Best Buy has every color available on sale for every configuration of the fifth generation iPad Air. Across the board, these prices are all solid second-best prices on the iPad Air.

These iPad's will be around $399 once the new ipads launch. I'll Just say wait it out at this point. Useless it's an emergency, but just return the iPad and get the new one once they launch it.

100% - I got my last-gen iPad Air for $399 when they launched this model. Plus, this has been on sale for $450 recently, so $499 isn't much of a deal at all

Good price. But definitely better to wait for two more weeks to see what Apple is launching. The existing models may also become cheaper after the launch of new ones.

The M1 is still a plenty powerful chip, but is it wise to buy an Apple device with what is now a 3.5 year old chip in it?
