While it is officially Mario Day 2026 over at 9to5Toys with the Switch game deals and new product announcements flying, it is also the last day at all of the brand new MacBook pre-orders ahead of release tomorrow. Today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is highlighting your last chance at up to $100 in FREE gift cards with pre-orders on the new MacBook Pro, M5 MacBook Air, and MacBook Neo (here’s our hands-on review), but we also spotted a $100 price drop on Apple’s new base model 1TB M5 MacBook Pro as well. As for iPad, we have up to $100 off the new M4 iPad Air, but we also spotted a giant $350 price drop hits this 1TB M3 iPad Air and an even deeper $400 discount on Apple’s 13-inch M5 iPad Pro cell model. Hit the jump or a closer look.

Apple’s new base model 1TB M5 MacBook Pro is $100 off at Amazon today ($200 under orig. price)
Giant $350 price drop hits this 1TB M3 iPad Air at Amazon today, M4 models up to $100 off
The new M4 iPad Air has arrived, at least in pre-order form with up to $100 off at Amazon ahead of delivery day tomorrow. But we happened to have just spotted a major $350 price drop on this 1TB M3 iPad Air model to deliver a new Amazon all-time low.
Amazon is now offering this 1TB 13-inch M3 iPad Air down at $949 shipped. Regularly $1,299, this is $350 off the original list price and the best we can find. This particular configuration has never sold for less than $1,149 before today at Amazon.
For comparison’s sake, the comparable M4 model with the same specs otherwise is now selling for $1,199, or $100 off the list price ahead of deliver day tomorrow.
By and large, the M3 iPad Air lineup has never really seen any wide-ranging sales at better than $150 off. There have been, much like today, a few one-off configurations that see special sale prices, and this is generally a good time to pull the trigger if the config works for your needs. But catching any M3 iPad Air, even now, at more than $150 or $200 off is particularly notable.
As of right now, stock across the M3 lineup is dwindling quick. We did already feature some discounts across several of the Wi-Fi + Cell models, but Amazon is clearly looking to get rid of at least some of its remaining stock with a giant $350 price drop like this.
Here’s how pre-order deals work out across the M4 lineup – there’s no telling what might happen with these prices as delivery day approaches tomorrow (March 11):
M4 iPad Air 11-inch
- 11-inch M4 iPad Air 128GB $559 (Reg. $599) – also matched at Best Buy
- 11-inch M4 iPad Air 256GB $649 (Reg. $699)
- 11-inch M4 iPad Air 512GB $839 (Reg. $899)
- 11-inch M4 iPad Air 1TB $1,019 (Reg. $1,099)
M4 iPad Air 13-inch
- 13-inch M4 iPad Air 128GB $749 (Reg. $799)
- 13-inch M4 iPad Air 256GB $839 (Reg. $899)
- 13-inch M4 iPad Air 512GB $1,019 (Reg. $1,099)
- 13-inch M4 iPad Air 1TB $1,199 (Reg. $1,299)
Apple’s 13-inch M5 iPad Pro cell model just went $400 off at Amazon
Amazon is now offering some notable cash discounts on the brand new M4 iPad Air at up to $100 off, and we just spotted this M3 model with a sizable $350 price drop, but if you’re looking for a banger M5 iPad Pro, this one is $400 off at Amazon today.
Amazon is now offering the 1TB 13-inch M5 iPad Pro with the nano-texture glass down at $1,799 shipped.
That’s certainly still a pricey tablet, but we are talking about one of the most powerful on the planet with the glass upgrade, Wi-Fi + Cell action, and a giant $400 price drop here. This one would cost you $2,199 shipped at Apple.
Over at Best Buy, this same configuration is selling for a whole lot more at $2,099 currently.
Clearly a close to maxed out 13-inch M5 iPad Pro isn’t for everyone, but this is Apple’s latest and greatest pro-grade tablet sitting at the best price we have tracked on Amazon. Previous to today, we have never tracked this model at less than $2,032 on Amazon.
But this model is also clearly overkill for plenty of folks out there, and understandably so. A much more universal appealing option here is the new latest M4 iPad Air that will start delivering to doorsteps across the country tomorrow. And we are already tracking some notable straight up cash discounts across the lineup courtesy of Amazon with no trades needed, and no strings attached.
