Apple’s latest iPad is the iPad Pro with the new M5 chip (we called it “perhaps the most impressive device Apple sells” in our review). Although it is only weeks old, it already contains $50 discount on the basic configurationUp to $949. As for other iPads, we’re seeing a discount on the standard iPad with the A16 chip Which brings it down to $299. A range of other Apple gear is also on sale, and we’ve included those discounts below. There aren’t nearly as many hot deals as there were on October’s Prime Day — we’re assuming most of the really big discounts are backed up for Black Friday — but until then, these are the best iPad deals we could find, along with other Apple discounts that are worth your time.
Best iPad offers
Apple iPad Pro (M5, 11-inch) for $949 ($50 off): Apple’s newest iPad was released earlier this month and is already seeing a $50 discount. That makes the model with 256GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity $949 instead of $999. Both the silver and black colors are currently discounted. We gave the new iPad Pro a score of 85 in our review and called it more powerful and capable than ever. It has an amazing display and the build is amazing. It’s powerful enough to do anything a laptop can do, but it’s almost impossibly thin and portable. However, this is probably overkill for most people, and the cost is almost prohibitive. This discount makes it a little easier. Also in Best buy and Walmart.
Apple iPad (A16, 256GB) for $399 ($50 off): This deal isn’t the lowest it’s ever been for the standard 256GB iPad model, but it takes $50 off Apple’s list price. Also in Best buy.
Apple iPad Air (11-inch, M3, 1TB) for $949 ($150 off MSRP): The latest iPad Air is a relatively minor update, with the only major addition being the more powerful M3 chip. However, we still recommend the Air over the base model in our iPad buying guide: its screen is laminated, richer in color, and better at resisting glare (although it’s still 60Hz); The speakers are more powerful. It works with Apple’s best accessories and should hold up to perform even better in the coming years. This deal is only for the model maxed out at 1TB of storage, but it ties the lowest price we’ve ever seen.
Best Apple Offers
Apple Mac mini (M4) at $499 ($100 off): Apple’s latest mini-desktop has a smaller overall footprint, a faster M4 chip, 16GB of RAM as standard (finally), two front-facing USB-C ports, an additional Thunderbolt 4 port, and the ability to power three external displays. However, it does not have any USB-A ports. We gave the M4 Pro model a review score of 90. This deal is for the entry-level version that has the base M4 chip, 16GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD – we’ve seen it drop to $469 in the past, but that’s still a good saving. Walmart.
Apple Pencil Pro for $99 ($30 off): The top option in Apple’s confusing lineup, the Pencil Pro supports pressure sensitivity, wireless charging, tilt detection, haptic feedback, and Apple Double tap and tap gesturesamong other perks. It’s a great tool for more complex drawing and note-taking, but the catch is that it is Compatible only With the M4 iPad Pro, M2 and M3 iPad Air and the latest iPad mini. We’ve seen this deal quite often throughout the year, but it represents a nice discount compared to buying from Apple directly. Also in Walmart.
Apple MacBook Air (13-inch, M4, 512GB) for $999 ($200 off): Apple’s latest MacBook Air is a top pick in our guide to the best laptops, earning a score of 92 in our review. It’s not a major overhaul, but the design is still thin, lightweight and exceptionally well built, with long battery life and a top-notch keyboard and trackpad. Now it’s a little faster. (Although we’d still like more ports and a higher 60Hz refresh rate.) This discount ties the all-time low for the model with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD.
Apple Watch Series 11 (GPS, 42mm) for $389 ($10 off): The latest flagship Apple Watch only hit store shelves last month, but Amazon is already selling it for $10 off. It doesn’t show up as a percentage discount, but you’ll see some models listed at $389 instead of Apple’s suggested retail price of $399. If you’re new to Apple wearables or ready to upgrade from a Series 9 or earlier, this is a good model to pick up. However, if you’re coming from the 10 Series, there’s not much need to upgrade as the only major change from last year’s model is a slightly larger battery and a tougher display.
Apple Watch SE 3 (GPS, 40mm) for $240 ($9 off): There’s a similar hidden discount for the latest budget model, the Apple Watch SE 3, at Amazon. Normally priced at $249 — again, not a huge discount, but better than nothing if you’re looking to jump in early, Apple gave this model some much-needed updates over its predecessor, including an always-on display, faster charging, better sensors, and the same processor you’ll find in the new Apple Watch Series 11.
