Welcome to day 3 of Amazon Prime Day 2025. As someone who covers tech deals for a living, even I'm impressed — these Apple discounts are no joke. We're seeing all-time lows on AirPods, iPads, even the Apple Watch Ultra 2. The wildest part? Most of them are still in stock. In some instances, the discounts exceed $100 compared to Apple Store prices. Tariffs who?
Most AirPods models are now at their lowest prices ever, including the new 4th-gen version, the ones with ANC, and my personal favorite, the AirPods Pro.
These prices could change quickly, so if something catches your eye, don’t overthink it… or you might end up waiting until Black Friday.

The newest iPad is an ultra-light, thin tablet that's powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag with room to spare, and right now it's at a lower price than we've ever seen. With a spacious 11-inch Liquid Retina display, you're swiping and scrolling in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before it feel like an old tube TV. It's also our pick for the overall best iPad for most users.
If you've got a habit of toggling among a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages simultaneously, you're in for a treat. This iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. And if you're into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame.

Are traditional iPads a bit too cumbersome for your daily routine? The smaller, more approachable iPad mini may be right up your alley. At only 8.3 inches, it's compact enough to hold with just one hand.
"A powerhouse in a compact form, designed for busy professionals and families who need both portability and performance," wrote one erudite enthusiast. "Whether you're managing work tasks, staying connected with loved ones, or entertaining the kids, this tablet handles it all effortlessly."

If you don't like that feeling of having something wedged in your ear and don't need active noise cancellation, these buds are the way to go. How are they different from the previous generation? The shorter stem gives them a cleaner look, and the new quick-press controls mean no more fumbling to pause your tunes or take a call. Plus, they fit better and stay put, so you won't have to keep adjusting them while you're at the gym or running to catch the train. And as of right now, they're at a new all-time low price.

Been meaning to try these best-in-class 'buds? They boast active noise cancellation, which shuts out the world so you can immerse yourself in music or whatever makes you happy. Adaptive Transparency mode allows you to listen to your tunes but also hear any important noises from your surroundings — and this is a new all-time low price for these earbuds.

Thanks to AirTags, I can track my bags from drop-off to the plane to the luggage carousel. And even when the worst happens, and my bags end up in Orlando when I'm in Michigan (true story), I know where they are and how to find them.
"First, we bought one Apple AirTag for my husband's wallet. Then we bought a second one for his car keys," said this repeat buyer. "Now, we have a four-pack, which is cheaper, for our golf bags and checked roller bags."
If a sleek design is at the top of your tablet wishlist, the latest iPad Air is the perfect fit. Equipped with Apple's powerful M3 chip, it offers all-day battery life, a stunning 12-megapixel camera and a liquid retina display that makes movies and TV shows pop.
"The screen resolution is really beautiful," wrote one impressed shopper. "It's lighter in weight than my old one and a little thinner. The camera takes gorgeous pictures."
Do you prefer a more open-ear design without silicone earbuds but still want ANC? These AirPods 4 are for you. Personally, I find the open-ear design more comfortable, though you do sacrifice a bit in the noise-cancellation department compared to the AirPods Pro 2, which have silicone tips to fully isolate you from your surroundings. That said, the AirPods 4 allow you to remain aware of your surroundings during runs, walks or your commute.
Yahoo Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida describes the ANC as "surprisingly effective," saying it's "at least 80% as good as it is on the AirPods Pros." AirPods 4 with ANC also share the Pros' H2 chip, spatial audio, Personalized Volume, Conversation Awareness, Head Gestures and wireless charging case with speaker, to name just a few features.
If you're all in on Apple but earbuds aren't your thing, the AirPods Max deliver in a big way. These over-ear headphones pack a serious punch with spatial audio, giving listeners a fully immersive sound that feels like they're right in the middle of the action.
Active noise cancellation keeps out distractions, but when you need to stay aware, just switch to Transparency mode. With up to 20 hours of battery life and plush memory foam ear cushions, these are built for comfort and long listening sessions, buyers say. And, just like with the AirPods Pro 2, switching between devices is smooth and seamless.
There's something about editing photos on an iPad that feels closer to the darkroom than a desktop — the touchscreen turns it into a hands-on craft. If you plan on using your iPad for more than casual internet browsing, the iPad Pro may be worth the investment. This version has all-day battery life, a crystal-clear ultra Retina XDR display, and even Apple intelligence. If the 11-inch display is a bit too small for your needs, it also comes in a larger 13-inch display that's $200 off.
"This has gotta be one of the best tablets ever made in this world," one buyer proclaimed. "It feels so sleek and futuristic."
If you're in the market for a smartwatch, you can't go wrong with the Series 10, especially at this price. There are loads of features that make it worth checking out, but some of the best are its sleep and fitness tracking abilities. Pair that with other advanced health options like monitoring your blood oxygen level, taking ECGs and you have a device that feels fine-tuned to help keep you healthy. It's a great workout companion and can track your steps taken and more.

This updated version of the MacBook Air features the latest generation M4 chip, meaning you'll get a much more powerful computer with everything else you love about the Air, including its outstanding 18-hour battery life and gorgeous 13.6-inch screen.
Looking for the best of the best? Speaking as someone who has used one every workday for the past 13 years, a MacBook Pro is likely exactly what you're looking for. This one was released just a few months ago and comes with some of the latest features, like Apple Intelligence and the advanced M4 chip. It also has a 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display, one of the crispest of the entire MacBook lineup.
"This laptop will last a decade. The battery lasts forever. I do mild development work for my job, and this laptop is capable of handling all the Python code without issue," said this snake handler. "This is perfect for students, professionals and more."
