The 10th Gen iPad and iPad Mini Hit Record-Low Prices on Amazon for Black Friday
We’re here to remind you that Black Friday is one of the best times of the year — if not the best — to save big on top-rated Apple tech on Amazon since Apple rarely hosts its own sales.
For the biggest shopping holiday of the season, Amazon is slashing prices on both the latest Apple models and tried-and-true options from past generations, with savings of up to $400 on MacBooks, iPads, Apple Watches, and AirPods.
Whether upgrading your existing gadgets or gifting a loved one a new pair of AirPods or their very first Apple Watch, it’s an excellent time to secure significant savings on big-ticket tech. Ahead are the best Apple deals on Amazon worth shopping this Black Friday.
Black Friday iPad Deals
Whether you plan to use it for work or play, there’s no denying that Apple’s range of iPads are incredibly useful pieces of tech. Currently, the 10th generation iPad and the iPad Mini are at record-low prices. Both models use Apple’s powerful Bionic chips and feature Liquid Retina displays, albeit with screen sizes that cater to different needs. Meanwhile, shoppers seeking a tablet with Apple’s signature Home button can save 39% on the 9th generation iPad, a deal that rivals this model’s Prime Day discount.
Black Friday MacBook Deals
We’re seeing some of the most significant savings this Black Friday on MacBooks, with discounts of up to $400. With a $250 price cut, the 2022 MacBook Air is currently at its lowest price ever, making this the most budget-friendly Apple laptop on sale. Shoppers looking for a top-of-the-line laptop can save $400 on the 2023 MacBook Pro, complete with 1 TB of storage, Apple’s blazing-fast M3 chip, and up to 22 hours of battery life. And the editor-tested 2024 MacBook Air has dropped below $1,000 for the first time since its release, just in time for the holiday shopping season.
Black Friday Apple Watch Deals
Apple’s smartwatches are among the most sophisticated in the wearable game, especially because they pair seamlessly with iPhones. For a wallet-friendly watch, score the Apple Watch SE for just $190. Although it’s technically Apple’s entry-level wearable, it still gets the job done when tracking fitness and delivering timely notifications.
If you’d rather shop deals on Apple’s latest models, we recommend snagging the Apple Watch Series 10 or the Ultra 2 this Black Friday. Not only does the Series 10 boast the slimmest profile of any model in Apple’s range, but it can charge up to 80% in just 30 minutes, making it Apple’s fastest battery yet.
You can also save 10% on the cellular version of the Series 10, which allows you to go completely phone-free. Meanwhile, the battery on the Ultra 2 can last for up to 72 hours, making it a solid option for anyone who loves to camp or spend time outdoors. It’s worth mentioning that both models feature advanced health metrics, including ECG, temperature sensing, sleep tracking, and heart rhythm.
Black Friday AirPods Deals
While there are plenty of headphone deals to shop this Black Friday, we’re perhaps most excited about the slew of price cuts we’ve found on AirPods. The best deal we’ve seen so far is a 24% discount on the AirPods Pro 2, which boasts intelligent noise control settings, a customizable fit, and a sweat- and water-resistant build. Now is also an excellent time to save on the over-ear AirPod Max headphones. Although the discount varies depending on color, we suggest shopping these popular headphones any time they dip below $450. Finally, shoppers eager to snag the latest model can save $10 on the AirPods 4, which was redesigned with comfort in mind.
When shopping for Apple deals, we recommend hitting the checkout button as soon as possible. Apple products often sell out quickly during big sale events like Black Friday.
