The M1 iPad Air has just got its first ever price cut — Daily Deals

(Image credit: Future)

The first M1 iPad Air discount is here! Get £25 off the latest tablet featuring Apple's super-powered chipset right now.

Previously, I've written about how the M1 iPad Air is pointless at its full price, as it would make more sense on paper to just get the M1 iPad Pro (by the way, you can save £50 on the Pro right now).

So, to see the first of many savings on the Air is encouraging to say the least, as it starts to answer the critiques in my piece. Plus, with Xbox Series S down to its lowest ever price and a huge SanDisk portable SSD saving, today's a good day to save big.
