I got this model during the summer with Apple’s education deals. I asked for black but the employee gave me blue. I was pleasantly surprised how nice the color was. Very very subtle and almost grey in person. I wouldn’t let the color deter you from this deal.

Been looking for an ipad for the SO… was going to go with 9th gen, but it’s really outdated.. then 10th gen, but for ~ $249, 64GB, older A..chipset seemed like a deal for an AIR with M1 (some were $349 for BF, but 64GB) that seemed like it might be the ticket… then THIS comes around, nother Benjamin, but for M2 and 128GB (and she wanted blue anyways!) I guess this makes the most sense.. now to find some way to compound the deal with CB, AMEX or other. Like to get it to ~$400 out the door. Here comes Santa!

It’s only 250 when you trade in an Air 4. That is a hella good deal. I might upgrade my mom’s.

Though a new iPad Air is in the horizon, this is a good price for a very good iPad. It supports Apple Intelligence and should get software updates for many years.
