This is the cheapest way to get the big-screened iPad Air 13-inch

It used to be the case that if you wanted a big iPad, you’d have to go Pro. Now, thanks to the 13-inch iPad Pro, that isn’t the case.

And it just so happens that Amazon has slashed £100 off the £799 RRP of the iPad Air 13-inch, making it a far more tempting £699.

Compared to the £1299 RRP of the 13-inch iPad Pro, this is a much more cost-conscious way to get a huge iPad that’s ideal for movies, work and gaming. To be honest, you’re not even losing that much by not going Pro. This tablet still works with many of the best accessories, has a lovely screen and is just as productive as the larger tablet.

Apple’s iPad Air sits in the middle of the iPad range, and as a result, it’s pretty stacked with features. For instance, the tablet is powered by the M3 chip – this is a chip that is powerful enough for a laptop, so it’s certainly good enough for a tablet.

The M3 is fast enough for all the most intensive apps and games from the App Store, making this a very productive tablet. You can edit 4K video, or play console-like games with an attached controller.

Other features include 128GB of storage for offline videos and files, a 12MP on both the front and the back, TouchID for secure unlocking and USB-C charging.

There’s also full support for Apple Intelligence, Apple’s first AI system. This can rewrite text, manipulate photos and lots more.

When we reviewed the iPad Air, we said, “A very good iPad with strong battery life, a fast chipset that’ll perform well for years to come, two screen size choices and good software.” We scored the tablet 4.5/5, noting how much power was on offer, the screen’s versatility and the impressive speeds.
