Here's a catalog of the best Apple deals available now. You can read on for details about each item and what makes this version special.

AirPods Pro 3 Are $80 Off

Arguably the best Apple deal in the entire sale is Apple AirPods Pro 3 (the latest model) on sale for $179. That’s $80 off MSRP, and the lowest we’ve seen them go since they launched last year. The big selling point for AirPods Pro 3 is the noise cancellation. They also produce full-bodied sound, and they fit more ear shapes than previous models.

Apple Watch Series 12 Is $50 Off

The latest mainline Apple Watch is the Series 12, which Apple boasts features the “most accurate heart rate sensing in a wearable.” So if you want your heart rate sensed, you can’t go wrong here. It also features Siri AI-powered features like the ability to transcribe the last 15 seconds it heard, and to give you a Cliff’s Notes version of your entire day. It’s pretty wild.

Apple Watch SE 3 Is $50 Off

Those who don’t need the latest and greatest in wrist-worn technology can also save $50 off Apple’s entry-level Apple Watch SE3. It normally runs $249, but is available now for $199. It can do things like track your workouts, give you an overnight sleep score, and much more.

Save $200 Off M5 MacBook Air

In June of this year, Apple raised the price of the MacBook Air by $200. This was due to things like RAMageddon and inflation, but it was also a bummer for anyone like me, who had been on the verge of upgrading. Right now, you can get this year’s MacBook Air, powered by the M5 chip, on sale for $200 off. That brings it back down to the previous price – a deal I’ll gladly take in this day and age.

iPad Mini Is $100 Off

If you don’t have have the supersized cashflow to afford the flashy new iPhone Duo, you can get this deal to save $100 off an iPad mini. When open, the Duo is roughly the size of this iPad, so you’re basically getting the same thing for much cheaper (not entirely, but you get the idea). It’s a terrific form factor, and this price makes it a terrific deal as well.

AirPods Max Are $120 Off

Some people don’t like earbuds. They don’t want something jammed in their ears because it’s either painful or uncomfortable. For those people, AirPods Max are an excellent over-ear solution. They’re comfortable, they offer terrific noise cancellation, and they’re on sale for 21% off.

The New 2026 Mac Mini Is $120 Off

People who want a desktop PC but don’t want it to take up a lot of space can save a cool $120 off the latest release of the Mac Mini. This small but mighty machine packs an M6 chip, which makes it powerful, but it keeps a small footprint on your desk.
