Where to buy the iPad Air (2020): Best Christmas Offers

The iPad Air 4 went on sale from 23 October. Despite a design shift to look similar to the latest Pros, the slate was the very first Apple device to come with the A14 Bionic chip, as well as moving Touch ID to the power button.

The new 10.9in iPad Air is an excellent halfway house between the entry-level iPad and high-end iPad Pro – and ideal for those who need some extra power, but don’t want to spend hundreds of pounds on a device that may not replace their laptop. 

If you want to know where to buy the iPad Air 4 before Christmas at the best price, you’ve come to the right place. We’re also looking at the best iPad deals across every model if you want to see other top Black Friday offers.

When was the new iPad Air released?

The 2020 iPad Air was announced at Apple’s 15 September ‘Time Flies’ event. Pre-orders were live from 16 October, with the device officially available from 23 October. 

This followed the same schedule as the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, although we have to wait until November for the Mini and Pro Max. 

What features does the 2020 iPad Air have?

The new iPad Air is a significant upgrade over its predecessor, now sporting a design similar to that seen on the 2018 iPad Pro. A new 10.9in screen size has much smaller bezels, with Touch ID now built into the power button instead of below the screen. However, there’s no Face ID support.

Don’t forget to pick up a case for the Air 4 – see the best ones here.

Impressively, the Air is the very first device to sport Apple’s new A14 Bionic chip, with a serious boost in performance expected over last year’s A12. The single rear camera has also been upgraded to a 12Mp, f/1.8 sensor. 

Elsewhere, the new iPad Air also follows the Pro in shifting to USB-C, while there are new green and blue colour options to add to the existing Silver, Space Grey and Rose Gold.
