The Best Apple Watch Deals
The Apple Watch Series 11 adds a few worthwhile upgrades to the already top-notch wearable. In addition to 5G support, the improved battery life lasts for nearly two days. Additionally, WatchOS 26 introduces helpful new features, including a convenient wrist flick gesture and timely suggestions. It's just as visually stunning as its predecessor and boasts the same impressive line-up of sensors. For iPhone users, it's our Editors’ Choice pick with a rating of "Outstanding."
The latest in Apple's budget smartwatch lineup, the Apple Watch 3 SE now offers advanced features including an always-on display, on-device Siri processing, ovulation estimates, sleep apnea detection, and wrist temperature sensing — while still keeping the price low. It uses the same power-efficient chip as the Series 11 and boasts an even more impressive 2-day battery life. The trade-off? A slightly less impressive display and lack of certain health features like blood oxygen saturation, ECG, and hypertension monitoring. It's a highly capable Apple smartwatch, especially at a sale price of $269.
The Best iPad Deals
Apple's latest iPad Pro looks very much the same as previous models, only it's now even faster, thanks to the M5 chip. In addition to the stunning OLED screen, this premium lightweight tablet is a graphics powerhouse and features a new set of radios. It feels luxuriously high-end to use and remains our Editors' Choice for creative professionals, so don't miss your chance to pick one up for $100 less.
The Best AirPods Deals
Even though they look nearly identical to the previous model, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 add AI-based smart features like hearing protection, live language translation, heart rate monitoring, and fitness tracking to the mix. The sound quality remains top-notch, combining rich, well-balanced audio quality with outstanding active noise cancellation technology. They're our new Editors' Choice pick for Apple users, and we think they're completely worth the upgrade.
The AirPods 4 are Apple's most affordable wireless earbuds, and right now, you can pick up a pair for just under $100 (or add noise cancellation for an additional $48). They deliver excellent audio performance with strong bass and crisp highs. For an open earbud design, they're our top pick, even without ANC. Our reviewer especially liked their seamless iOS connectivity and hands-free Siri controls, which even include head gestures, going as far to say, "Their sub-bass capabilities are a game changer for open earbuds, and the overall audio balance is solid thanks to Apple's Adaptive EQ."
The Best MacBook Deals
Apple's latest MacBook Air remains our Editors' Choice pick for ultraportable laptops, thanks to even faster M4 processing, an improved 12-megapixel webcam, and a quiet, fanless design. As with previous models, the overall user experience is a pleasure for both work and play, particularly with the Liquid Retina display and responsive keyboard. Moreover, in testing, the battery lasted an impressive 20 hours. You certainly won't be disappointed with this laptop, especially with a $200 discount right now.
Recommended by Our Editors
While Apple's latest MacBook Pro might look nearly the same as its M4-powered predecessor, it takes a huge leap forward in terms of power, capability, and overall performance. In addition to the new and more powerful M5 chip, it boasts enhanced processor cores, increased memory bandwidth, and significantly improved AI and graphics capabilities. It sets a new standard for base-level power and is the first ultraportable MacBook that can even handle serious video gaming, earning it our Editors' Choice award.
The Best Apple Pencil Deal
The Apple Pencil Pro is rated "Outstanding" for its host of advanced features, making it our Editors' Choice pick for serious digital artists and creators. In addition to tilt and pressure sensitivity, the Apple Pencil Pro adds squeeze and delete functions to the palette, along with a new barrel roll gesture and haptic vibrational feedback. Plus, it charges wirelessly and magnetically attaches to more recent iPads. Don't miss your chance to grab this high-end digital stylus for under $100.
The Best Beats Deals
The Beats Studio Pro are wireless, over-ear headphones that offer a rich, well-balanced sound complete with head-tracking spatial audio. You can listen to your favorite tunes via wired headphones (for high-res audio playback) or through Bluetooth in either noise-cancelling or transparency mode. We found their seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem to be especially noteworthy, along with their comfortable, cushiony fit and premium accessories. While we originally rated them as "Good," at a sale price of $179.95 (that's a 50% discount), they're a more than good pair of noise-cancelling headphones, especially for iOS users.
The Beats Solo 4 don't offer noise cancellation, but they deliver a satisfying, sculpted sound with enhanced bass and crisp highs. The over-ear design is comfortable for extended use, and features such as hands-free Siri and one-touch pairing enhance the overall user experience. While we find the original price a bit steep for what they offer, the 40% discount brings the price to $119.99, making them a solid choice for fans of the Beats aesthetic and sound quality.
The Beats Studio Buds are a good budget-friendly option for wireless noise-cancelling earbuds. While they're significantly cheaper than AirPods Pro 2 (especially with this 34% discount), they offer similar features, including active noise cancellation, Spatial Audio, and one-touch pairing for iOS and Android devices. The overall audio output is solid with powerful bass and crisp highs, too. As you might expect, the noise cancellation is less impressive, but for the under-$100 price point, it's a great value.
Featuring sophisticated Bluetooth technology, solid audio, and roughly 12 hours of battery life, the Beats Flex earbuds offer affordability without sacrificing performance — and that's not even considering the 30% discount! Unlike most true wireless earbuds on the market, the Beats Flex have a neckband-style design (which might even keep you from accidentally losing an earbud). Per our 2020 review, "the Beats Flex deliver a commendable user experience and solid audio for anyone who wants added bass depth with balance," and these buds are just $40 right now.
