If you’ve been waiting to take the plunge and don’t want to wait until Black Friday, here are the best Apple deals we found during the Prime Big Deal Days event. I’ll update this post if I find anything new. As a refresher, the sale runs until the end of today. You must be a Prime member to view some of the deals.
The best Apple deals on Prime Day
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd generation) $169 ($80 off MSRP): These are the best noise-cancelling wireless earbuds we’ve seen yet from Apple, which we think are the best choice for iOS users. This is the cheapest price.
Apple AirPods Max $395 ($154 off): This matches the lowest price ever for Apple’s over-ear noise cancellation, but this price only applies to older Lightning-based models and not newer versions with USB-C. does not apply to However, if you can stomach the outdated charging port and slightly bulky design, the older model still offers clean sound and top-notch ANC.
Apple AirPods 4 for $119 ($10 off): This modest discount has been available for a few weeks, but it’s still worth highlighting considering Apple just launched new wireless earbuds last month. We gave this pair a review score of 88, praising the improved fit, comfort, and overall sound quality. However, this model does not include active noise cancellation or wireless charging.
Apple Watch SE (2nd gen, GPS) for $170 ($79 off): It’s been around a bit longer, but the entry-level Apple Watch is still a great choice for first-time smartwatch buyers, as long as you can live without one. An excellent choice. It has a larger always-on display and more advanced health features of the more expensive Series 10. This is one of the lowest prices we’ve ever looked at for a 40mm model. The larger 44mm version is also $200 off.

Apple Watch SE (2nd generation, GPS + Cellular) for $220 ($79 off): If you need more than Wi-Fi, the 40mm and 44mm versions of the Apple Watch SE with cellular support are also cheaper than usual. They are $220 and $250. each.
Apple MacBook Air M2 (13-inch) for $749 ($250 off): Another generation back, the M2 MacBook Air offers most of the same benefits as the latest model, but with a slightly faster chip, dual external Except for monitor support, which was improved. Base model storage speed. This discount will match the lowest price confirmed to date. Before you pull the trigger, see if you can live with 8GB of RAM. If you need even more storage, a 512GB model is also available for an additional $200.
Apple MacBook Air M3 (13-inch) for $849 ($250 off): But if you don’t mind paying more for these upgrades, the latest and greatest MacBook Air is also an extra $100 off. We’ve seen this discount several times before, and this is comparable to the lowest price ever for an entry-level model. In general, we think the M3 Air is the best laptop for most people.
Apple MacBook Air M3 (15-inch) $1,044 ($255 off): The 15-inch Air is 0.5 pounds heavier than its 13-inch counterpart, but it has a more robust speaker system and the added weight is worth it May be used if additional screen space is required. Although this trade is only $5 above the previous low, this is still the highest price we have tracked. Note that this is the base model with 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSD. Even configurations with twice the memory and storage start at $1,423.

Apple iPad (9th generation) for $199 ($130 off): This model is technically out of production, and we’ve seen this discount for most of the last couple of months, but again… $199 is a great price for an iPad that: Still perfectly suitable for casual media consumption. You’ll have to put up with thicker bezels, an outdated home button, and just 64GB of storage, but you’ll get (almost) the same clean software and rich app library as other Apple tablets.
Apple iPad mini (6th generation) on sale for $350 ($149 off): To be clear, Apple is expected to release its long-awaited refresh by the end of the year, so the iPad is now on sale. It’s not a good time to buy a mini. But if you’re not interested in owning the latest, and just want a (relatively) cheap small iPad, this is about 30 less than the typical street price of an 8.3-inch slate over the past few months. The dollar is cheap.
Apple Pencil Pro $96 ($33 off): This is the biggest price drop ever for Apple’s top-of-the-line stylus. Before you take the plunge, make sure you own (or plan to buy) the latest iPad Air or iPad Pro.
Apple MagSafe Charger (25W) for $32 ($7 off): While not a huge discount, this is the lowest priced of the company’s latest MagSafe chargers, and it supports iPhone 16 (and up to 25W on iPhone 16) Now supports wireless charging speeds (with a suitable power brick).
