Save up to $200 on Airpods, iPads, watches, and more

Amazon’s latest creation is on Day 3, and while the week-long event is still not as big as Black Friday or Golden Day in tech, we’re still finding some really good discounts on Apple devices. If you are looking for a new iPad, Apple Watch or AirPods, then we’ve made the best Apple deals below right now. In fact, most of these offers aren’t explicitly tied to spring sales, but they still discard many of the Apple (and beats) gadgets, which we recommend for a lower price than usual. As a reminder, Amazon said that the transaction will last until March 31, and the following transactions are not unique to major members.

Apple’s wireless earbuds are far from the richest or longest durable pair that sounds, and this entry-level model lacks wireless charging, find my tracking and onboard volume controls. However, it can still bring you many features that suit you Apple – from quick pairing with iCloud devices to spatial audio to hands-free siri – its lightweight design should fit most ears better than the Airpods of the past. If you really hate the feeling of headphones that stick into the ear canal, they still sound cleaner and more balanced than most open alternatives. Remember, this design doesn’t essentially block too much external noise. This discount tied the lowest price we saw outside of in-store transactions only.

Apple Airpods 4 vs. ANC priced at $149 (retail priced at $30): This version of AirPods 4 is nearly the same as the base model, only it supports active noise cancellation and comes with wireless charging cases. It also supports other listening modes (such as adaptive audio), and if you misplace it, you can find my tracking network in Apple. The ANC is not as effective as a pair that completely seals the ear canal, but it makes the earplugs more useful in noisy environments. We gave the device a score of 86 in the comments. This discount is $11 more than the best price we’ve seen, but its earbuds fall outside.

Apple Airpods Pro 2 costs $170 ($79 off): The AirPods Pro 2 remains Apple’s best wireless earbud set as they offer a full suite of Apple-centric features, powerful ANC, onboard volume control, (usually) comfortable in-ear design, and a warm sound profile that most people should be sure of. They can even be used as hearing aids, and although their six-hour battery life is still not the best, you should only get them if you use Apple hardware in full swing. But if so, we call them the best choice for iPhone owners in the “Wireless Earbud Buying Guide.” We’ve seen the pair drop in prices as low as $154 in December, but the deal has since been priced no more than its best price. Also Best Buy.

Apple Watch Series 10 costs $299 ($100 off): The top choice in our guide to the best smartwatches, Series 10 is a major iterative update with faster charging, slightly smaller profiles and slightly larger display, which, compared to the previous Series 9, says it is still a comprehensive fitness tracker, and there are no other smartwatches that can be integrated with iPhones and other iPhones and other Apple devices. If you want to upgrade from an older Apple Watch (think Schedule 7), that should be a welcome upgrade – remember that the patent controversy locks it in the blood oxygen detection feature on these older models. This $100 discount matches the lowest price for non-cell models we’ve seen for 42mm shells. The same is Best Buy and Walmart.

Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro) for $1,199 ($200 off): It’s still not cheap, but it’s the lowest price for the latest MAC MINI configuration we’ve seen, which includes the M4 Pro chip, 24GB RAM and a 512GB SSD. This particular model is overkill for casual users, but it should be a good option for those who want a compact Mac but can’t pop up for the professional needs of high-end MAC Studio. Last November, we gave the Mac Mini a score of 90 in the comments, praising its performance, pint-size design and port choice, although it may get noisy under load and still lacks an SD card reader. Also in B&H.

If you only need a desktop for basic tasks, the desktop with a standard M4 chip, 16GB RAM and 256GB SSD also dropped to $499. The $100 discount matches the best price we track.

If you especially want a small tablet that is easier to use with one hand, the iPad mini is still the best choice for you. The latest iteration continues to offer a full iPad experience in a compact framework, with a faster A17 Pro chip and a more spacious 128GB of storage in this base model, although it still lacks face ID and is still limited to a basic 60Hz refresh rate. We gave the device a score of 83 in the comments. We’ve seen this $100 drop over the past few months, but it matches the all-time low of the 8.3-inch Slate. Also at Walmart.

Apple iPad (A16) costs $329 ($20 off): The latest entry-level iPad arrived only three weeks ago, but Amazon is currently on sale for $20 less than Apple Direct, which is a nice saving if you plan to grab the tablet early. This is another small update, but now has a faster A16 chip, more RAM and 128GB of storage. It scored 84 in our reviews – if you only need an iPad for media consumption and easier work, that’s still a great value. Also at B&H and Best Buy.

Apple iPad Air 11-inch (M3) costs $549 ($50 off): Much like the deal on the basic iPad above, this isn’t a huge discount, but it’s a great opportunity to save a few dollars compared to buying directly from Apple. The new iPad Air was released the same day as the iPad (A16) and was a similar minor update. The only big addition is the more powerful M3 chip. But if you can swing it, we still prefer the basic model: it has a richer display and is better resistant to glare, its speakers are more robust, it works with Apple’s best accessories, and should perform better in the coming years. If you can find older M2-driven models, you can find higher value, but either way, Air is the iPad we recommend to most people. Also at B&H, Best Buy and Walmart.

Apple iPad Air 13-inch (M3) costs $738 ($61 off): We gave the 13-inch iPad Air a review score of 89 earlier this month. Its display is bigger and brighter than its 11-inch dubbing. Otherwise, the two slates are the same. If you plan to connect your iPad to your keyboard, the extra screen space is great for filming and multitasking. This is the lowest price we see for the 128GB model. Also at Walmart.

Apple iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) costs $1,099 ($200 off): The iPad Pro is more important than the tablet most people need, but it’s The final iPad is for those who can tolerate their price tags. It’s very thin, its OLED display is one of the best monitors we’ve seen on consumer devices, and its M4 chip can handle almost anything you’ve ever done on your iPad. It’s also the only Apple tablet with a facial ID, and in addition, it has a better speaker setup than the iPad Air. We gave 84 points in the comments, and the only real downside is that everything is expensive. This deal doesn’t really reduce that — another one we’ve seen multiple times in recent months — but it still links the all-time lows of the 13-inch model.

Beat

Beats Pill scored 83 points in last year’s review and currently has a place in our guide to the best Bluetooth speakers. It’s not the best value on the market, it may struggle with the largest amount, but usually pulls out the power without sounding unbalanced. A stylish and waterproof design, plenty of battery life and the ability to play lossless audio on a USB-C cable. The deal is the best price we tracked for $2. Also at B&H, Best Buy and Walmart.
