The 2020 iPad Air normally costs $749, but it’s discounted to $599.99 at Amazon. The price appears to be $649.99, but if you add one to your cart, the final price for this lightweight 256GB tablet will add an extra $50.
Alternatively, the 128GB configuration of the 11-inch model of the 2021 iPad Pro normally sells for $800, but it’s currently $699.99 at Amazon and Best Buy. This is the lowest price we’ve seen for this tablet since Black Friday.
Both models have roughly the same display size. The iPad Air has a 10.9-inch screen, while the Pro’s 11-inch screen is slightly brighter. The display on the Pro also has a slightly higher resolution, but both models still include True Tone technology, which optimizes the temperature of the display based on your viewing environment.
The Pro also has a wider and more powerful camera array, with an additional 10MP ultra-wide lens and a 12MP ultra-wide front-facing camera. That’s compared to the single 12MP wide-angle lens and 7MP front-facing camera on the Air.
Arguably the biggest difference between these two tablets is their processors. The 2020 iPad Air features the A14 Bionic chip, which is starting to show its age, while the Pro has Apple’s M1 CPU. While it’s no secret that the M1 vastly outpaces older Apple processors, the 2020 iPad Air is still a gorgeous tablet with plenty of power for mobile apps. But for anyone planning to use the tablet as a laptop replacement, the iPad Pro will be a better choice.

If you’re in the market for a pocket speaker, the JBL Go 3 is $29.95 at Amazon and $29.99 at Best Buy, and it’s available in a variety of colors. Normally $49.99, this tiny speaker weighs less than half a pound and is just 1.6 inches thick, making it easy to slip into a pocket or bag. The built-in loop also allows it to be easily attached to a carabiner or keychain.
The Go 3 is a resilient speaker with IP67 weather resistance that can handle just about anything but long swims in deep water. The five-hour battery can be charged via USB-C and can even be used as an external battery for other devices. However, it only supports media playback via Bluetooth.

Perfect for pool or beach use, the JBL Go 3 may not be as versatile as the larger models in the JBL range, but it’s still a great option for a pocket-friendly Bluetooth speaker.
The latest model of the Razer BlackWidow Gaming Keyboard, the BlackWidow V3 Pro, is currently discounted to $139.99 at Amazon and Best Buy, matching the best price yet for this $229.99 mechanical gaming keyboard. This discount applies to models with yellow linear switches and models with clickable green switches.
The biggest change to the BlackWidow V3 Pro is wireless connectivity. The keyboard can be paired with devices using Bluetooth or the included 2.4Ghz wireless dongle and lasts up to 13 hours on a single charge. If you’re charging or using the keyboard in wired mode, the V3 Pro uses a detachable USB-C connection that’s also compatible with custom cables.
These changes aside, this keyboard will look and feel familiar to anyone who has used a BlackWidow model before. The V3 Pro even includes the same magnetized wrist rest and dedicated media playback buttons as its predecessor.

The Polk Audio MagniFi 2 normally costs $499, but Amazon has discounted it to $299.99, its lowest price ever. MagniFi 2 is 37 inches wide and features a wireless 100-watt down-firing subwoofer. Equipped with four full-range drivers and a pair of tweeters, MagniFi 2 delivers superb sound quality for almost any environment.

If you need extra coverage, the MagniFi 2 can also connect to other Chromecast-enabled speakers in your home, but Apple users should note that the soundbar unfortunately lacks any sort of AirPlay connectivity.
