All About Interwebz: Don't miss out on the best deals for Apple M1 Macs and iPad Pro on Prime Day

With Prime Day deals now ongoing, you may be thinking of moving from your Intel Mac or A-Series iPad to an M1 model.

There's plenty of deals on Amazon Prime Day with M1 Macs and iPad Pro devices that may tempt you to upgrade now, and ignore the rumors of the upcoming M1X or M2 chips and the performance improvements they may bring.

As of today, you can reap the benefits of the powerful performance that the M1 chip brings, such as the MacBook Air and the Mac mini, ready for the upcoming update of macOS Monterey.

We've also included the Magic Keyboard attachment for the M1 iPad Pro models here, just in case you want the experience of using it as a laptop, but within an iPad.

If your Intel Mac is wearing a bit thin and you're not interested in what might happen in the next few months, the performance gains you can reap now can make a big difference for a big saving thanks to Prime Day.
