Its obvious that Apple products are some of the most sought-after in the tech world that means sales are fewer and farther between than other gadgets, and theyre often the first things to sell out when discounts do arrive. But it would be a mistake to assume youre doomed to always pay full price on things like iPads and Apple Watches. Apple deals do exist, if you know where to look. Engadget keeps track of deals like these on a regular basis, so we can help you there. Below, weve collected the best Apple deals you can get right now on items like AirPods, MacBooks, iPads and more. Arguably the biggest caveat to note about Apple sales is that youre almost never going to see discounts directly at Apple.com. Unless you shop refurbished, youll always pay top dollar direct at Apple, and for some things (like iPhones), that might be best. But youll find more discounts more often if youre willing to shop at retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target and others. Before we get to the deals, we'd be remiss if we didn't mention the new devices Apple launched recently. There are two new iPads, a new entry-level iPad with the A16 chip and 128GB of base torage, and a new iPad Air powered by the M3 chipset. You can order those now starting at $349 and $599, respectively. On the Mac side of things, the MacBook Air got an upgrade to include the latest M4 processor. That's also available to order now starting at $999. Best AirPod deals AirPods 4 with ANC for $169 ($10 off): These buds have ANC, but they dont have the interchangeable ear tips youll find on the AirPods Pro 2. Even so, they have an improved fit over the last version, plus good sound quality and a heap of advanced features. AirPods 4 without ANC for $117 ($12 off): Skip ANC to get the AirPods 4 for a bit less. These have the same design as the models with ANC along with the same advanced features and solid sound quality. Best Apple accessories deals Apple Pencil Pro for $99 ($30 off): The most advanced Apple Pencil includes a gyroscope, plus support for the squeeze gesture and Find My. Its essentially an upgraded version of the second-gen Pencil, complete with pressure support and magnets so it can snap to the side of your iPad for safe keeping. Apple Pencil USB-C for $69 ($10 off): This more affordable Apple Pencil doesnt support pressure sensitivity, but makes for a good stylus overall. If youre a casual note-taker and can handle connected charging, youll save a few dollars by picking this one up. Best iPad deals iPad mini (A17 Pro) for $399 ($100 off): This is the iPad to get if you prefer small tablets, akin to ereaders. The latest mini is equipped with an A17 Pro chipset, an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display and Apple Intelligence. We consider it to be the best small tablet, period, and we appreciate its Apple Pencil Pro support, 128GB of storage on the base model and compact design. iPad Pro (M4, 11-inch) for $850 ($150 off): The most powerful iPad is the iPad Pro, and its the one to get if youre even toying with the idea of using your new slab as a laptop replacement. Both the 11- and 13-inch models have gorgeous displays, thinner and lighter designs, a repositioned front camera and the excessively powerful M4 chip inside. Best Apple Watch deals Apple Watch SE for $169 ($80 off): Those on tighter budgets can opt for the Apple Watch SE and know theyre getting the core Apple wearable experience with few compromises. We consider it to be the best smartwatch for newbies Apple Watch Ultra 2 for $769 ($30 off): Apples most premium smartwatch, the Ultra 2 has a killer 36-hour battery life, a handy Low Power mode for extended use and cellular connectivity by default. It also has a compass app, water temperature gauge and a loud onboard siren that you can trigger in emergencies. Best MacBook deals and Mac discounts MacBook Air (M3, 13-inch) for $899 ($200 off): The M3 MacBook Air builds upon the solid foundation of the M2 model, meaning its more than enough computer for most people. It earned a score of 90 in our review thanks to its speedy performance, sturdy yet sleek design, excellent keyboard and trackpad and good speaker system. If you want a slightly larger display, grab the 15-inch model instead MacBook Pro (M4, 14-inch) for $1,399 ($200 off): Both the 14- and 16-inch M4 MacBook Pros are some of the fastest laptops you can get right now, ideal for content creators, video editors and anyone who needs a notebook that can handle pretty much anything they throw at it. They have bright, bold displays, improved webcams and long battery lives, plus some models have Thunderbolt 5 ports. Mac mini M4 for $529 ($70 off): If you prefer desktops, the upgraded M4 Mac mini is one that wont take up too much space, but will provide a ton of power at the same time. Not only does it come with an M4 chipset, but it also includes 16GB of RAM in the base model, plus front-facing USB-C and headphone ports for easier access. iMac (M4, 24-inch) for $1,179 ($120 off): For an all-in-one solution, the M4 iMac is a good pick thanks to its powerful performanc, standard 16GB of RAM and improved webcam.
