11 Great Apple Deals on MacBook, iPad and Airpods (April 2025)

There is a lot of uncertainty over the cost of electronic products, such as smartphones, tablets and laptops, in the coming months due to newly imposed tariffs by the Trump administration. Price will most likely It’s rising, but it’s too early to say how much it is. If you plan to upgrade your Apple MacBook, Apple Watch, iPad, or other Apple hardware as it’s on the last leg, now is a smart time. Fortunately, there are a lot of Apple deals – I have expected them to make sure they are real discounts and not fakes.

Deal on MacBook and Mac desktop

This is Apple’s latest MacBook Air (9/10, Wired recommended). It has the same chassis as the previous models, including a 13.6-inch LCD screen (60 Hz refresh rate), two USB 4/Thunderbolt ports, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a MAGSAFE port for charging. Apple upgraded its webcam to 12 megapixels to make it a clearer, clearer 1080 pixel resolution during video calls. You’ll also get an M4 chip that offers excellent performance for daily tasks and longer battery life, and supports two external monitors (even if the laptop screen is on).
If you want a bigger screen but don’t want to spend money on a 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro, the latest 15-inch MacBook Air (9/10, Wired recommended) is also on sale. It has the same features as the smaller version, including a powerful M4 chip (with a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU) and good battery life (we achieved up to 20 hours in local video playback). Larger screens offer a more comfortable viewing experience, with larger fonts and more space to provide features such as side-by-side split screen mode.
It’s a small discount, but the MacBook Pro comes with a better mini LED screen (with a 120 Hz refresh rate), more ports (three USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4, HDMI, HDMI, SD card slot, a high-resistance headphone jack and a MAGSAFE charging port), as well as support for three external monitors. This deal works on the M4 chip, which is the same deal you find on your MacBook Air. But you can also upgrade to an M4 Pro or M4 Max chip for more power.
If you’re looking for a desktop computer, the Mac Mini (8/10, wired recommendation) is a great small PC. It is not only the most affordable option of any Apple desktop, but it is also the most compact option – you can travel easily if you want to take it to the office and plug it into a work peripheral. Powered by an M4 chip, it comes with a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU, which is perfect for basic tasks. The model sold also crashed storage space to 512 GB. You can also upgrade to the M4 Pro for improved processing power, although it is not for sale.

This is Apple’s latest basic iPad. It has the same design as its predecessor, with a 10.9-inch liquid retina (IPS LCD) display, a touch ID sensor integrated into the side power button, a USB-C port, a 12-megapixel rear camera, and a 12-MP selfie camera in landscape mode. The company upgraded the processor to an A16 chip (the same one found in the iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, which Apple says is almost 30% faster than the 10th-generation model and 50% faster than the 9th-generation version with the A13 Bionic chip. However, it is worth noting that it is not support for Apple Smart. We haven’t tested it yet.
The latest iPad Air (7/10, wired review) has an M3 chip, meaning it has features like Ray Tracing, Mesh Shadows and Dynamic Cache to help with Power Graphics-intensive tasks, the first time this model has. It also packs smooth performance, fixed battery life (I managed to get over 7 hours of web browsing and watching TV), and supports a new magic keyboard case (apart from other accessories like the Apple Pencil (USB-C) and Apple Pencile Pline Pro). While it comes in 11-inch and 13-inch screen sizes, I prefer streaming content and using it as a secondary display for work.
Airpods and Apple Watch deals

If you don’t want Airpods, these are our favorite alternatives. They are equipped with noise reduction, support for spatial audio and transparent modes. You can also get good battery life – up to 9 hours per charge plus a 27-hour charging case. The Studio Buds+ is also one of the most comfortable earbuds we’ve tested, with the physical buttons on the external earbuds being very easy to control.
AirPods Max with USB-C (8/10, wired recommendation) has nearly the same features as the original Lightning port version, which comes with built-in controls for volume, playback and tuning noise controls (you can loop between noise cancellation and transparency modes). Apple added lossless audio support for this model in April. Prices in the past have dropped.
Beats Fit Pro (9/10, wired recommendation) is perfect for workouts. They have good noise cancellation, solid microphones and good high-fidelity sound. These are especially great for gym stability – they have soft silicone tips and soft fins so you don’t have to worry about tweaking them during the workout. You can also get six hours of battery life and another 18 hours in the charging case.

The Apple Watch SE is an excellent entry-level smartwatch. You won’t get advanced health tracking, but it’s not only for logging in to workouts, steps, sleep, and heart rate. With home setup supported, this is also a great option if you are on the market to buy your child’s first wearable. It is compatible with WatchOS 11, so you can access features like Vitals apps and training loads.
Apple is offering deals for its Apple TV+ streaming service. (Even streaming services may be affected by Trump’s tariffs, so this may be worth it.) Instead of the standard subscription price of $10 per month, the service costs $3 per month for three months. It can be used for all new and existing customers. However, there is a warning for existing customers: If you qualify for a three-month free Apple TV+ (if you purchased a new Apple device), or if your subscription is charged through a third-party or mobile carrier, it won’t be exploited. The promotion will end on April 24.
