Apple unveiled the fourth-generation iPad Air in mid-September, and the tablet is set to start shipping on October 23. Pre-orders are still ongoing, and if you submit yours through Amazon, you will be able to enjoy a $40 discount to the latest iPad Air’s price of $599, bringing it down to $559 for a great deal on a device that hasn’t even rolled out yet.

The all-new iPad Air with 64GB storage features an edge-to-edge 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, made possible by moving the Touch ID sensor from the eliminated Home button to the tablet’s top button. The tablet is powered by the A14 Bionic, making it the first device with Apple’s latest chip, and follows the latest iPad Pro in ditching the Lightning port in favor of USB-C. It is also compatible with the Magic Keyboard and the second-generation Apple Pencil, for accessories that can further expand the iPad Air’s usefulness.

Apple’s latest operating system for its tablets, iPadOS 14, amps up the iPad Air experience by further integrating the Apple Pencil into the tablet’s note-taking capabilities, as well as adding the Scribble feature for text fields to recognize handwriting. The new version of iPadOS also introduces Universal Search to quickly find anything on the iPad Air or online, redesigned widgets to access information with a glance, and new looks for native apps such as FaceTime and Siri.

Apple has also designed the iPad Air to be environmentally friendly. The tablet is built with a 100% recycled aluminum enclosure, 100% recycled tin for the solder on its main logic board, and 100% recycled rare earth elements for its speakers. Even the tablet’s packaging is green, as it is made out of wood fiber that is recycled or sourced from responsibly managed forests.

The fourth-generation iPad Air hasn’t started shipping yet, but it has the potential to become one of the most popular models in Apple’s iPad lineup due to the combination of a powerful processor, and the wonders of iPadOS 14. If you pre-order through Amazon, you’ll shave $40 off of the tablet’s price, bringing it down to $559 from $599. It’s unclear if the offer will stay once the new iPad Air starts shipping tomorrow, so if you want to avail the discount, you should click on that Buy Now button before the day ends.

The iPad is finally getting the Affinity app creatives have been asking for
Affinity brings photo editing, vector design, page layout, and sketching together in one free iPad app.
Affinity UI on iPad

Affinity’s new all-in-one creative app is finally coming to the iPad, nearly a year after Canva launched the redesigned desktop version for Mac and Windows. Creatives have been asking for the iPad release ever since, especially because files created in the new Affinity app cannot be opened in the older V2 iPad apps.

Affinity already has Photo, Designer, and Publisher apps on iPad, but the new release combines those tools into the same unified app that Canva launched on desktop last year.

Apple’s “Pro and Tell” October 28 event: Everything we expect from touchscreen MacBooks to a new iMac
Prepare for a touchscreen MacBook that costs around $3,000.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind. 

The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).

Apple will only give you the fastest iPad mini chip if you pay $999, or more
The full A20 Pro experience on Apple’s new iPad mini is reserved for buyers spending at least $999.
Apple iPad mini with 6-core CPU

Apple has just launched its latest iPad mini with a notable set of upgrades, including an OLED screen, improved speakers, and a more resilient build. It also gets a new chip, and the whole package costs $200 more than its predecessor. But if you look closely at Apple’s online store, you’ll realize that $699 isn’t enough to get you the most powerful version of the A20 Pro chip inside this tablet. In fact, even if you pay $800 for the 256GB model, you still won’t get the beefiest variant. Only when you jump to the 512GB trim, which costs an absurd $999, do you get the most powerful flavor of the A20 Pro.

The $999 model gets more than extra storage
