The week's juiciest Apple sales, including a $200 iPad — an all-time low

Over 10,000 Amazon shoppers bought these earbuds in the past month, so it may be an understatement to say they're a customer favorite. Released just this year, they come with more features than you may expect given their tiny package: active noise cancellation, transparency mode, USB-C charging and a snug, customizable fit. 

"The noise cancellation amazed me," one shopper wrote. "I have a window A/C unit to cool my office and when I put these in, I thought it turned off. It took me two or three times of taking them in and out of my ear to realize the headphones were eliminating the sound."

Named the best headphones for Apple die-hards by our senior tech writer, Rick Broida, these combine style and performance in a unique package (literally) — they come in a special carrying cover as opposed to a case. 

"Best headphones ever," wrote one impressed reviewer. "Recently had a root canal done, and didn't hear a thing (my dentist said that was a first in his experience). They cancel the noise I don't want to hear and provide superb sound for music I do want to hear."

Don't let its release date fool you — though this iPad first burst onto the scene in 2021, it's still one of the best tablets on the market, ideal for everything from working to playing. At nearly 40% off, it's at its lowest price ever.

"The battery life is great for note-taking," one reviewer wrote. "It's super light to carry around and the space gray color I chose is so sleek and classy. It took me about five minutes to set it up."

Broida dubbed this iPad the best overall tablet of 2024, so if you're looking for the cream of the crop, grab it now while it's on sale. It comes with a one-year warranty, boasts up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge and has a 10.9-inch screen and 64GB storage.

"[It] seamlessly pairs with the rest of my Apple devices," one impressed shopper wrote. "Build quality is great as all Apple devices are. ... Charges via USB-C and includes a nice braided charger. Screen is great, speakers are clear and battery is long-lasting."

If traditional iPads are a bit too cumbersome for your daily routine, the smaller, more approachable iPad mini may be right up your alley. It's only 8.3 inches wide, and it's compact enough to hold with just one hand. Grab it for just a few bucks above the lowest price it's been all year. 

"I never realized how much I needed an iPad until I got this. The mini is so cute and it fits in my medium-size purse. There's nothing it can't do that the newer or bigger ones can't. Easy to travel with. Easy to use and high performance," wrote one fan.

If a sleek design is at the top of your tablet wish list, the latest iPad Air is the perfect fit. Equipped with Apple's powerful M2 chip, it offers all-day battery life, a stunning 12-megapixel camera and a liquid retina display that makes movies and TV shows pop. And now's the time to pounce: It's currently the lowest price it's ever been.

"The screen resolution is really beautiful," wrote one impressed shopper. "It's lighter in weight than my old one and a little thinner. The camera takes gorgeous pictures."

Though it was released a couple of years ago, this MacBook Air is just as lightweight as its newer cousins and doesn't skimp on power thanks to its M2 chip. Need more incentive? It's the lowest price it's ever been!

"Eighteen hours of battery life is not just marketing. The speed of the M2 is snappy and can handle much more than I thought it would," raved one shopper. "The new screen is gorgeous. Trackpad is the best on the market bar none."

This model, powered by Apple's ultra-fast M3 chip, was released this year, so we're surprised to find it on sale — especially at a $249 discount (with the on-page coupon). It's also one of the thinnest and lightest laptops you'll find, so can you really go wrong?

"I am in love with this laptop," said one reviewer. "[It's] a complete game changer. I am usually a PC guy but I ended up getting a Mac to change things up. ... The M3 chip is also insanely fast and the extra RAM definitely helps me browse more things at once. ... Would recommend completely!"

Work in a design-intensive field? Simply prefer a large monitor? Feast your eyes on the 2023-released Apple iMac desktop computer. You'll get a roomy 23.5-inch display and a color-matched Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse. It's a one-stop shop for productivity. It's the lowest it's ever been.

"The optimal family computer," one impressed reviewer wrote. "This machine is so fast compared to anything I've ever worked on. ... It's like going from a Pinto to a Ferrari!"

If you're guilty of being a little (or very) forgetful, an AirTag may just be that piece of tech you didn't know you needed. It doesn't feel or look too "techy." In fact, it's completely uncomplicated. Just attach it to whatever you tend to misplace often or need to keep track of, like your wallet, keys or luggage. You'll always know where it is using the "Find My" app on your phone. It's among our picks for the best Bluetooth trackers on the market.

"I use these for everything as a chronic misplacer," one shopper admitted. "My most recent purchase was for my cat's collar because she hides all over the house. It provides great peace of mind!"

Despite its sleek, minimal design, the Magic Mouse does so much thanks to its multi-touch surface that lets you swipe, scroll and more. Wireless and rechargeable, you can take it with you on the go. Snag it at the most affordable price it's ever been.

"This is the best addition to any MacBook Pro ever!" one shopper wrote. "It makes using your MacBook more convenient and easy to navigate than using the pad that is built into the laptop."

If you've been waiting for an Apple Watch to go on sale, this deal has your name written all over it. The 2023-released SE has everything you need, from trackers for your heart rate and steps to crash detection. This is only $20 more than its all-time low.

"The durability is outstanding," said one five-star reviewer. "I was a bit careless and forgot the watch in my pants when I was doing laundry. Luckily, after a 40-minute wash and a 50-minute dry on high heat, the watch worked perfectly fine."

If you have a little more to spend, this Apple Watch is worth the investment. Released this year, it boasts an always-on Retina display and comes with useful features like ECG apps, a fitness tracker and more. 

"I was like, 'What's the hubbub about these watches?'... until I got one," this five-star reviewer said. "I am one that really needs in-your-face reminders and this thing reminds me by giving me a vibration so I never miss my reminders. I really like that."

When a recent Apple release goes on sale (especially at an all-time low), we get excited — and this is exactly the case for the Apple Watch Ultra 2. This souped-up smartwatch has a black titanium case and comes with different colored loop bands (depending on which option you choose). It has a larger face than standard Apple Watches and functions as a fitness tracker, GPS and more.

"Not only is this thing a beast with battery life, [but] I am finding more features that I didn't even know it had," one shopper wrote.
