Best Apple Watch Memorial Day Deals
Apple Watch SE Second Gen, 40mm GPS ($219, originally $249 at Amazon)
While this is the entry-level Apple Watch, it easily packs the most value for the price. At a discounted price of $219, the SE delivers on everything you’d expect from an Apple Watch and then some.
Apple Watch Series 8, 41mm GPS ($329, originally $399 at Amazon)
If you’re after something a bit more feature-filled, the Apple Watch Series 8 steps things up with more health features, an always-on display, longer battery life, and larger sized options at 41mm or 45mm. Ahead of Memorial Day, it is down to its lowest price ever at $329.
Best AirPods Memorial Day Deals
AirPods Max ($449.99, originally $549 at Amazon)
Leading the pack is Apple’s over-ear masterpiece, AirPods Max. These headphones are down to the lowest price ever at $449.99, just about $100 off the $549 MSRP. Like AirPods Pro, these fast-pair with an iPhone and sync across all your Apple devices for easy switching. Playback sounds great with any genre thanks to custom drivers and two Apple H1 processors. Best of all though, they offer excellent active noise cancellation and transparency modes.
AirPods Second-Gen ($99, originally $129 at Amazon)
AirPods for under $100 is once again a reality—Amazon has AirPods second-generation down to just $99 flat. These sport Apple’s original design for true wireless earbuds with longer stems. Additionally, second-generation AirPods won’t fully seal off your ear, but offer 24 hours of battery life with recharging in the case and easy setup.
AirPods Third-Gen ($159, originally $169 at Amazon)
If you like earbuds that don’t fully seal off your ear, but want a more modern design and the ability for Spatial Audio playback, AirPods third-generation are the pair for you. Currently, they are down to just $159, a $10 discount from the MSRP, and undercut AirPods Pro. They boast a similar design with a molded plastic head that fits comfortably in most ears and offer better sound quality over standard AirPods.
AirPods Pro Second-Gen ($199, originally $249 at Amazon)
Our friends at SI called Apple’s second-generation AirPods Pro must-have earbuds in the full review last year. These true wireless earbuds offer a deep integration with Apple devices paired with excellent noise cancellation. Kicking things up a few notches further, the new Transparency mode is the best we’ve tested and these make any genre sound good.
Best Apple TV Memorial Day Deals
Apple TV 4K, 64GB ($125.99, originally $129.99 at B&H Photo Video)
While it’s only a $4 discount off the Apple TV 4K, it makes one of the best streaming players a bit more affordable. You can see our full review here and B&H Photo is discounting Apple’s latest streaming box to just $125.99 with free shipping.
Best iPad Memorial Day Deals
9th Gen iPad ($269.99, originally $329 at Amazon)
Whether you want an iPad just for streaming, video calling with friends, or even doing a little work, the 9th Gen iPad is up for the challenge. iPadOS still runs smoothly and swiftly thanks to the A13 Bionic processor. It’s back down to the lowest price ever, just $269.99, on Amazon right now.
10th Gen iPad ($399, originally $449 at Amazon)
Just released last Fall, the 10th Gen iPad comes in four fun colors, boasts a more modern build, and speeds things up with the A14 Bionic chip. Most interestingly, it’s the only iPad in the lineup that moves the front facing camera to a spot on the long side. This makes this iPad especially fit for FaceTime and other video calls. It’s $50 off at $399 in any of the colors for the 64GB, Wi-Fi model.
6th Gen iPad Mini ($399.99, originally $499 at Amazon)
Now for the same price, you can also get an iPad Mini, which is more portable and just as powerful. Even more so for $399, it’s the 64GB Wi-Fi model that comes in four colors with the A15 Bionic chip and support for the second-generation Apple Pencil. The 8.3-inch size makes this the perfect digital notebook.
5th Gen iPad Air ($499.99, originally $599 at Amazon)
The iPad Air is one of my favorite picks in the entire iPad lineup. It boasts a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display in some fun color, supports the newest Pencil, and is powered by Apple’s M1 Chip. That means you can do more advanced multitasking and intense tasks like run Final Cut Pro on this iPad. It even pairs with the Magic Keyboard for a laptop-like experience.
Best Mac Memorial Day Deals
@jakekrol The #MacMini is still as compact as ever, but it now features the #M2 or #M2Pro chip. It’s also the most affordable #Mac at $599. Just bring your own peripherals. #apple #pc #computer #macos #tiny #mini #applestuff #tech #technology #consumerelectronics
Mac Mini with M2 ($499, originally $599 at Amazon)
The M2 Mac Mini is normally the best value in the entire Mac lineup, but it’s an even better deal right now. At a full $100 off at just $499 it’s the cheapest way to get a new Mac and you get a crazy amount of power from Apple’s new M2 chip. Just remember to pair this with a display, keyboard, and mouse or trackpad. If you need more storage over 256GB, you can get the upgraded model with 512GB of storage at $679. That higher-end configuration is $120 off.
MacBook Air with M1 ($799.99, originally $999 at Amazon)
The M1 MacBook Air doesn’t boast the new design like the M2, but rather keeps the iconic wedge design in an ultra-portable build. It comes in Gold, Silver, and Space Gray as well. Most importantly, it’s powered by the M1 Chip, which removes the need for a fan and stretches the performance. It will even last for days on standby. Amazon’s currently taking $200 off the price at just $799.99.
