Apple may have an iron grasp on the general population, but when it comes down to it, their products look good, work well, and stay cutting-edge — so of course, people love ’em. Whether you build your calendar around Apple events or just want solid tech no matter the brand, Apple’s got you covered. Sure, they’re a little notorious for their high prices, but we’ve rounded up the best deals on iPads, AirPods, MacBooks, and more to help you save where you can.

iMac and MacBook deals

Why we like it

The M3 MacBook Air has dropped to a new record low, just in time for the back to school season. This deal beats its former low by about $50, offering an 23% discount on a laptop with one of the best chips you can find in a MacBook, along with an 18-hour battery life, WiFi 6E support, and the ability to connect up to two external displays with the laptop lid closed. Of course, it also has the signature portability of the Air line, making it great for working at home or taking on the go. This price also puts it just $50 above the M2 MacBook Air with the same specs, offering a bit more future proofing without a huge price bump.

iPad deals

Why we like it

Though it’s still $20 away from its record low price, you’re still saving $50 on a tablet released just over a couple of months ago. The M2 chip gives a zippy upgrade to 2022’s Air, and offers starting storage of 128GB compared to the last gen’s 64GB. Considering this was one of our biggest gripes with the 2022 Air, we’re happy to see that this change came without a price jump.

Apple Watch deals

Why we like it

If you’re looking to get an Apple Watch on the cheap, you’ll want to check out this Apple Watch SE deal at Walmart and Amazon. This smartwatch is more on the basic side, without an S9 chip (and therefore Double Tap), an ECG sensor, and a display that maxes out at 1,000 nits of brightness (as compared to 2,000 nits). However, it can still act as a heart rate monitor, and of course, the ability to download a whole host of apps.

AirPods and Apple accessories deals

Why we like it

Check out our full review for the USB-C AirPods Pro.

Simply put, AirPods are expensive, but we think the ones most people should invest in are the AirPods Pro. They provide some of the best noise cancellation on the earbuds market, plus work well within the Apple ecosystem. You’ll get about six hours of battery life per charge, and enjoy well-rounded sound and spatial audio. At $189.99, they’re still $20 away from their lowest price ever, but $60 off their full price is still a pretty solid deal for the AirPods Pro.
