Current rumors suggest that Apple may not release an iPad Air 3 with significant upgrades in the fall. A new deal on the 128 GB iPad Air 2 slashes the price by more than $100 off Apple's current price.
As we get closer to Apple's expected September launch of its Force Touch-equipped iPhone 6s and 6s Plus release, attention has also shifted to Apple's next-generation iPads. We recently reported details on the iPad mini 4, which, unlike last year's iPad mini 3, will receive a significant update in terms of design and the slate's internals.
The iPad mini 4 is expected to feature an all new design that more closely resembles the company's current flagship iPad Air 2 and will be ultra thin at 6.1 mm. The tablet is also expected to use the same fully laminated display with an anti-reflective coating as its larger sibling, which will improve its view in direct sunlight.
Apple is also widely expected to debut its long-rumored 12.9-inch iPad Pro/Plus for users who want a more powerful and larger iPad, which will certainly benefit from the new split-screen multitasking feature that will debut as part of iOS 9. The company has already confirmed that the feature will make its way to the iPad Air 2 upon release. The feature allows users to run two apps simultaneously side-by-side, bringing multi-window support to iOS, something Samsung has long offered on its Galaxy Tab tablets.
There have been rumors that Apple may or may not release an iPad Air 3 in the fall, and reports suggest that if it does, the tablet will only feature minimal upgrades compared with the iPad mini 4 and iPad Pro/Plus. If the rumors prove true, you might want to consider a new deal on the 128 GB iPad Air 2.
You can score a 128 GB Wi-Fi iPad Air 2 for $589.99 on eBay for a limited time, which is a significant savings over Apple's current price of $699. The iPad Air 2 is available in choices of space gray or gold and includes free shipping with your order.
