Apple discounts don’t come around often, so when Amazon cuts up to 28% off AirPods, Macs, and more, I pay attention. I picked five deals worth your money, from earbuds that track your workouts to a tiny desktop that fits under your monitor.

AirPods Pro 3 – $179 (28% off)

This is the deal I’d grab first. Apple says the noise cancellation removes up to twice as much noise as the AirPods Pro 2, and built-in heart rate sensing tracks your heart rate and calories across 50 workout types. Live Translation is a fun bonus for travelers, and the $70 saving makes it all easier to justify. AirPods Pro 3 are one of the best pairs of wireless earbuds, and at this price, they’re an instant buy for me.

Apple Watch Series 12 – $349.99 (12% off)

It’s rare to see discounts on the latest Apple products, and that’s what make this more enticing. The Apple Watch Series 12 launched just a month back, and you can get a cool $50 off on it this Prime Day. 

Apple says it has the most accurate heart rate sensing in a wearable, taking background readings every five seconds and checking your HRV as often as every five minutes. It also tells you how ready you are for the day based on your activity, vitals, and sleep, and a 15-minute fast charge gets you up to 12 hours of use.

iPad mini – $499 (17% off)

The iPad mini is the most portable way to get the full iPad experience. The A17 Pro chip handles Apple Intelligence, and with Apple Pencil Pro support, it makes a great digital notebook that slips into almost any bag. At $100 off, the base 128GB model is a solid pick for reading, notes, and travel.

For students, the MacBook Air M5 is the device to get. The M5 chip keeps multitasking smooth, and up to 18 hours of battery life means you can get through a full day of classes without hunting for an outlet. The $200 discount is also the biggest dollar saving on this list.
