Apple's latest iPad Air just dropped to a record-low price — get $100 off
If you've been in the market for a new tablet for watching movies, scrolling social media or doing a little work from the couch, we have great news: the iPad Air is just $499 right now. That's $100 off the base model in all colors: space gray, blue, purple and starlight. Wondering what the differences are between a smartphone, a desktop computer and an iPad, and what exactly you might need from an Apple tablet? We have you covered — check out our guide to the best iPad of 2025. Apple tech rarely goes on sale, so when the prices drop, it's worth taking a look, especially when you can save $100. It's the lowest price ever for this model! You might be thinking, "I've got a phone. I've got a laptop. Why do I need a tablet?" This iPad is a sweet spot between the two, especially for anyone who's craving extra computing power that the regular iPad and the iPad mini don't offer. Need a little more than the touchscreen and onscreen keyboard? It's compatible with both the wireless Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil (the first version), so writing and drawing are a breeze. Reading and watching videos on the iPad's 11-inch screen is much more enjoyable than on your phone as well. "You know how a Corvette will get you where you're going, fast and in style, the same way a Lamborghini will? That's my take on the iPad Air, " says Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida. "Ultimately, the Air makes a good choice for anyone seeking a pro-level iPad without the Pro's price." (The Pro, if you're wondering, starts at $899 on sale — ouch.) The latest iPad Air is so new that it's still amassing Amazon reviews — but a whopping 86% of them are a perfect five stars. "I use this daily for reading books, email, typing/writing and many more daily activities," said this Apple enthusiast. "I was concerned that the screen was too small, but it is so clear and bright. I am amazed and the size is perfect for my needs. The battery life is great and even using it on a brighter setting, it lasts more than a day." An entrepreneur found that the newest iPad was perfect for their business. "I recently upgraded to the 2025 iPad Air ... and it has exceeded my expectations. The M3 chip makes everything incredibly smooth — whether I'm running multiple apps for my small business, sketching ideas for custom cakes or streaming content." "Familiar yet faster and more powerful. I purchased this to replace my 8th generation iPad," said another repeat buyer. "I'm an amateur photographer and wanted the extra power and speed of the M3 processor for editing very large photos in the field. On my older iPad, some of the large files caused the unit to close the Photoshop app unexpectedly. I have had no problems with this iPad Air M3 with any large files. What I love the most about it is it is a painless transition from my older iPad. It just has extra speed and power. I'm new to Apple Intelligence but really look forward to incorporating it in my photo editing." While the iPad Air is more powerful than the regular iPad and the iPad mini, it still pales next to the iPad Pro. "I have a 2019 iPad Pro 11 first-gen, so the specs are not impressive with the new iPad Air," cautioned a four-star reviewer. "That being said, it is as snappy as it gets." Speaking of critiques, here's what Broida had to say: "As for performance, the Air will more than satisfy the vast majority of users. Only if you're capturing and editing a lot of video should you consider going Pro." But he added, "If you already own an Apple Pencil 2, it won't work here. For shame, Apple." (The first-gen Apple Pencil is compatible, however.) The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication. If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)

Bloody Handprints, 3 Slain Sisters: What We Know About Missing Dad Accused of Killing Them
Travis Decker is wanted after being accused of murdering his three young daughters The sisters - Paityn Decker, 9, Evelyn Decker, 8, and Olivia Decker, 5 - were found dead on Monday Decker remains at large as local authorities continue to search for him in WashingtonTravis Decker remains at large as police in Wenatchee, Wash., and the surrounding area continue their multi-day manhunt for the missing father suspected of killing his three young girls over the weekend. Paityn Decker, 9, Evelyn Decker, 8, and Olivia Decker, 5, were found dead on Monday, June 2 near the Rock Island Campground in Chelan County, Wash., after authorities tracked down their father's abandoned car near where their bodies were discovered, PEOPLE previously reported. Decker, a former military man, remains on the loose according to local authorities, who provided a description of the father over the weekend as the search began. Here's what we know. The Wenatchee Police Department said in a statement over the weekend that Paityn, Evelyn, and Olivia were all supposed to be with their father for a planned visitation over the weekend. 'The visitation was part of a parenting plan, but he has since gone outside the parameters of it which is not normal and cause for the alarm,' police said. The girls were last seen on May 30 and found dead on Monday, June 2, two days after police first launched their public manhunt. Police have said the 32-year-old Decker has former military experience and should be approached carefully, PEOPLE previously reported. 'It is unknown whether Decker is currently armed, but he may pose a significant risk,' police said in a statement in recent days. The Wenatchee Police Department said in its May 31 missing persons alert that Decker has recently been 'homeless and living in his vehicle or at various hotels/motels or at campgrounds in the area.' At 5-foot-8 and 190 pounds, Decker was last seen wearing a light shirt and dark shorts. He was also most recently wearing his black hair in a ponytail, according to police.

Authorities discovered Decker's pickup truck near the Rock Island Campground in Leavenworth, Wash., where the three sisters' bodies were discovered, local Fox 13 reported. According to the outlet, investigators found two bloody handprints on Decker's truck while inside there were items like a blanket, food, and car seats for the girls. Police also discovered a wallet on the center console of the vehicle, according to Fox 13. Court documents obtained by the outlet also say that Decker's cell phone activity showed "he drove to and left the same campground a day prior to the kidnapping.' Decker has since been charged with three counts of first-degree murder and one count of kidnapping, police have said. He is also facing custodial interference charges. A GoFundMe page set up for the girls' mother, Whitney Decker, has described the girls' deaths as 'heartbreaking.' "We are heartbroken to share that the girls have since passed ... the pain of this loss is immeasurable," organizer and friend Amy Edwards wrote. "I've known Whitney for years, we're both dance moms and theater friends [and I've] had the privilege of teaching Whitney's girls." The GoFundMe has raised nearly $400,000 in recent days. Edwards says the 'funds raised will go directly to Whitney to help cover final expenses, support time off from work, and give her space to heal without financial pressure.' 'Thank you for keeping Whitney and her girls in your hearts,' the family friend added. Read the original article on People
