Apple Cuts iPad, iPad Air Prices Ahead of Father's Day

This year Father's Day falls on June 15 - the perfect opportunity to surprise dad with a cutting-edge iPad. Amazon has slashed prices on several of Apple's newest tablet models just in time for the occasion. The 2025 Apple iPad (10.9-inch) now costs just $299 after a $50 discount, while the larger iPad Air models (11-inch and 13-inch) receive $100 reductions to $499 and $699 respectively. Such substantial discounts on current-generation iPads are rare, making this an exceptional opportunity.
