If you’re in the market for a top-end 11-inch M4 iPad Pro, Amazon just dropped the 2TB model down to a new all-time low at $1,829 shipped.

For comparison’s sake, Best Buy is offering this model on sale for $1,899 with an additional $50 off for Plus and Total members, which still isn’t as good as the Amazon deal. 

AirPods 4 are now live once again down at $114 Prime shipped

$114
Justin Kahn -

Apple’s flagship AirPods Pro 2 landed at particularly notable $170 to kick-off Best Buy’s Black Friday deal season this morning, and now it’s time for the latest AirPods 4. While did see a wild price at $90 yesterday for this set, it sold out in less than a minute of us posting. Woot’s price on the base-model AirPods 4 at $114 Prime shipped (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise) doesn’t seem to stick around for long either, but now’s your chance at one of the lowest prices we have tracked to date. These regularly $129 Apple buds are the latest release in the lineup, and frankly, yesterday’s $90 deal at BrandsMart was probably mostly a ploy by the retailer to pull in views – it seemed as though it really only had a few sets up for grabs at $90, if that.

But for others it presents an opportunity to score what was very much a top of the line machine just a few years ago with a serious deal, and that’s what we are looking at right now. Best Buy is offering the 13-inch M1 MacBook Air down at $509.99 shipped. This is no M3 machine, nor is it an M2, but we are talking about a perfectly good casual laptop that carried a sticker price at $999 originally and still sells for $759 in refurbished condition from Apple.

But that’s only if you don’t plan on trading in a Series 9 for one – we are currently seeing Series 10 drop as low as $99 for the entry level models.

There is one major distinction in the iPhone case market this year for the launch of Apple’s series 16 handsets, Camera Control. With the introduction of the new multi-gesture Camera Control button, case makers couldn’t simply just resize last year’s models in order to get their covers up for sale as fast as possible, they also had to decide how they were going to handle the extra functionality and hardware changes this new camera button ushered in.

Best Buy now offering AirPods 4 from $84 with AirPods 3 trade-ins (Reg. $129 – $179)

Apple
$45 off $84

This morning we featured an extremely notable opportunity to trade in Series 9 for Apple Watch Series 10 to score $300 off your purchase. And now we are turning our attention to AirPods 4. As of right now, Apple isn’t even offering trade-ins for me towards its new AirPods 4 when trying to place a pre-order (and neither is Amazon), but Best Buy is. As of right now, with a set of AirPods 3 in good condition, for example, you can knock $45 off your pre-order of the new 4 series buds yielding prices stating from $84, or the lowest we have seen yet. Head below for the details.

Pre-orders Glowtime

Apple’s 2024 Glowtime event ushered in a series of new hardware from the new iPhone 16 with the Camera Control button to the AirPods 4, both with and without noise cancellation, right through to the stealthy new black Apple Watch Ultra 2. And all of it is now available for pre-order. While you can, obviously, get it all straight from Apple with the usual trade-in action at the ready, folks with Amazon and Best Buy credit in the holster, or perhaps some gift card money from all of the notable promotional deals and bundles we have been featuring over the last few months, can also now leverage it to score lower prices on pre-orders there. The AirPods 4, the updated AirPods Max, and the new Apple Watch Ultra 2 in black are ready to go there  as well.

Rare deal has Apple’s M4 iPad Pro-ready black Magic Mouse down at $85 via Amazon

Justin Kahn -
Apple
Reg. $99 $85

Amazon is now offering another rare chance to score the official black Apple Magic Mouse down at $84.99 shipped. Deals aren’t exactly generous on the regular $99 Apple Magic Mouse, so any time we see anything more than $8 or $9 it’s worth a mention. This is nearly 15% off and matching the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon all year outside of a very brief drop to $80 for Prime Day this year – it jumped back up in price very quickly. Beyond that, only once has it dropped this low across all of 2024. Just so we are on the same page here, this is indeed a notable price for the black model, but you can regularly score the white model Magic Mouse for less than this – it is currently just under $68 on Amazon.
