Back to school season is in full swing, and you don’t have to rely on the Apple Store’s deals to get the best bang for your buck on a new iPad, AirPods, or MacBook.
In fact, you’re much more likely to get better savings from retailers like Amazon. The below list is our case in point, featuring deals like the 11-inch iPad Air marked down $150 to $649, the AirPods Pro down $80 at $169, and the M4 MacBook Air down $200 to $799 — its lowest price ever.
Check them out, along with the other top TK Apple deals live this week.
Best AirPods deal
Why we like it
Check out our full review of the Apple AirPods Pro 2.
The AirPods Pro 2 are our favorite earbuds for Apple users, providing excellent ANC, sound quality, and connection with Apple devices. Though Apple’s price point is at the steeper end, this deal puts these earbuds at a much more accessible $169 — not quite the lowest price we’ve ever seen them, but still one of the best at $80 off. The only reason we wouldn’t get them? If you want the latest and the greatest earbuds. The USB-C version of these earbuds released back in 2023, and though we think they hold up, there was a possible leak of the AirPods Pro 3 earlier this year.

Best MacBook Air deal
Why we like it
The Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) is going on its third week of sitting at its record-low price. That’s right: You can get the MacBook Air M4 (in any color) for just $799. That’s a 20% discount and a $200 savings. The 15-inch version is our favorite MacBook for most people, so if you don’t mind a slightly smaller display, this price is pretty unbeatable for an everyday laptop.
Best MacBook Pro deal
Why we like it
Check out our full review of the M4 MacBook Pro.
If you’d rather have a Pro, the 14-inch Apple MacBook Pro (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is still sitting at $1,299.00. This is the lowest price we’ve tracked for this model and a full $300 off its list price. Though significantly more expensive than the Air, the Pro is better suited for folks who regularly do more intensive tasks like video editing — the larger built-in storage is also a big bonus for use cases like that.

Mashable Deals
The iPad Air is the best Apple tablet for most people, and for good reason: it has a long battery life, works for streaming and creative projects, has the option between 11-inch and 13-inch displays, and has a powerful M3 processor that basically makes it a touch screen laptop, especially with the addition of a Magic Keyboard. It’s a great note-taking and file organizing machine for students, and at $150 off, it’s back down to its lowest price ever.
