Apple to continue iPad price adjustments tied to AI component costs
Given the explicit mention of AI data center expansion and memory chip shortages driving price increases for iPads and Macs, it's plausible Apple will continue to adjust pricing for these devices in response to ongoing AI-related component costs and demand.

However, Amazon Prime Day immediately followed with significant discounts on the iPad Air, starting at $299. This suggests a potential strategy of initial price increases followed by promotional sales to manage inventory or stimulate demand.
