Apple iPad Air 5 preorders have begun
How soon can you get your hands on an iPad Air 5 preorder?
The iPad Air 5 discount may seem premature, but shops don’t spare any time in offering discounts on the newest Apple devices. The first iPad Air 5 bargains could appear as soon as this week. As a result, don’t hold your breath for a slew of one-dollar deals.
When it comes to new Apple products, Amazon is generally one of the first retailers to offer discounts in the form of dollars off. You may expect to see a $20 to $30 discount on the basic iPad Air configuration this week or early next week. To put it another way, you may anticipate to see bargains on the older iPad Air (2020) for $489 to $499, which would be its lowest price ever.
The Apple Store is where you’ll find the best trade-in bargains. In exchange for your old iPad, Apple will give you up to $680 in store credit toward the purchase of an iPad Air 5.
If you buy a new iPad Air from Best Buy, you’ll likely have access to a variety of complimentary Apple services. It’s expected that you’ll receive six free months of Apple Music, six free months of Apple News Plus, and three free months of Apple TV Plus. Trade-in discounts at Best Buy will save customers up to $450 on the new iPad Air 5 if they bring in an older model.
