While your phone is likely by your side all day, there are some tasks it's not especially great at — like watching your favorite show, for example. It's hard to pick up on the fine details on the Great British Bake Offfrom a small phone screen. Your shows and movies deserve to be streamed on something bigger, brighter, and better than your phone. And how about something that can also double as a mobile work station? If this sounds up your alley, check out today's deal at Amazon.

As of Feb. 5, the 13-inch M2 Apple iPad Air (128GB, Space Gray) is on sale for $689 at Amazon, down from the usual price of $799. That's a 14% discount that takes $110 off the list price. It's also the lowest price we've ever spotted at Amazon. Beware this tablet might come with delayed shipped, with dates going into the beginning of March for some areas.

When it comes to shopping for the best iPads, Mashable ranks the M2 iPad Air as the best option for most people. "It will be your new go-to device for streaming, reading, or creative projects. And if you plan on using your tablet as a substitute for a laptop, it'll work for that, too," explains Mashable Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino.

While the M2 version the iPad Air is no longer the thinnest (that award now goes to the M4 iPad Pro), it still packs in the features for the price. In Mashable's testing, the M2 iPad Air got over 13 hours of battery life.

The 13-display uses Liquid Retina for an impressive screen experience, meaning it'll be great for streaming your shows while cozy on the couch.
