As a long-time PC enthusiast and former Android blogger, I have to admit that Apple’s iPad is truly the top tablet in the market. In fact, I have one on my desk right now, right under my main monitor.

If you’ve been eyeing an iPad for yourself, now is a great time to make the purchase. Walmart is offering a fantastic deal on the 10.9-inch 5th-gen iPad Air from 2022, priced at $399, which is $200 off the retail price. While this model may not have the largest screen size, it does come packed with the powerful M1 processor, the same one found in the latest Arm-powered MacBook Air. Additionally, it offers 64GB of storage on the base Wi-Fi model.

It’s important to note that the discounted iPad Air is only available in purple. If the color isn’t your favorite, consider purchasing a skin or case to personalize it to your liking. Despite the color limitation, this iPad Air features a USB-C port for data and storage, a 12MP rear camera, and a fingerprint reader integrated into the power button.

Deals on iPads like this tend to sell out quickly, and this one is already experiencing fluctuations in availability based on location. If you’re interested in taking advantage of this offer, it’s best to act fast before it’s gone. Keep an eye on the Walmart website for restocks if the device is currently out of stock.
