Where to buy the new iPad Air
If you want to buy the iPad Air directly from Apple, you can order on the Apple US or Apple UK site. There won’t be any discounts available, though Apple does offer occasional carrier deals and trade-ins.
Of course, Apple isn’t the only place you can buy an iPad Air, the usual resellers around the world will also be stocking the new model including the following. You can see the best prices at these resellers in live price comparison boxes below.

KRCS often is the first to discount new products
iPad Air education discounts
Apple offers students and staff in higher education discounts on the iPad Air in its Education Store. Apple isn’t the only retailer that offers student discounts, however. In the U.K., KRCS offers up to 10 percent off for qualifying students.
University students and teachers can also save on the iPad Air with Apple’s Education pricing.

U.S. carrier deals
Verizon: Save $100 with an Unlimited plan and up to $200 when you buy with an iPhone.

iPad Air refurbished deals
The deals you will see above are generally from Apple resellers rather than Apple itself; the company rarely reduces prices. Apple does, however, sell reconditioned iPads in its refurbished store. So you can grab a bargain that way.
The iPads in Apple’s refurbished store may be ex-display stock, or they may have been returned to Apple due to a fault, but they are fully reconditioned now and come with a full year’s warranty. It’s not like buying secondhand.
The U.S. refurbished store has a selection that includes:
Standard iPad (8th and 9th generation)
iPad Air (4th generation)
11-inch iPad Pro (2nd and 3rd generation)
12.9-inch iPad Pro (4th and 5th generation)
iPad mini (5th and 6th generation)
Compared to the original price, you can save as much as $320 on a 12.9-inch iPad Pro.
In the U.K. you’ll find a similar selection of iPads available from Apple’s refurbished store. You’ll find the following:
Standard iPad (9th generation)
iPad Air (4th generation)
11-inch iPad Pro (2nd and 3rd generation)
12.9-inch iPad Pro (5th generation)
iPad mini (5th and 6th generation)
There are savings of £480 on a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, compared to the original price.
There is a large refurbished market for the iPad Air. We’d recommend taking a look at these refurbished resellers for iPad Air offers:
