Today’s best deals include the latest MacBook Air on sale for $899 alongside $1,300 off Apple’s refurb Retina 5K iMac Pro. Plus, Anker’s latest iPhone accessory sale starts from $17. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

Latest MacBook Air hits $899

Amazon is offering the Apple MacBook Air i3/8GB/256GB for $899. That’s $100 off its sticker price and is a match for the lowest Amazon offer we have tracked.

Having relied on a MacBook Air for a couple of years, I can vouch that it’s an exceptionally well-crafted laptop. The latest model boasts a 13.3-inch Retina display with support for True Tone which adjusts color and intensity of your display to match the ambient lighting in your space. Owners are bound to love its adoption of Apple’s new Magic Keyboard which is paired with the convenience of Touch ID. Stereo speakers offer up wider sound that trounces what’s commonly found in the competition. Check out our hands-on review to learn more.

Apple’s refurb Retina 5K iMac Pro $1,300 off

Woot is offering Apple’s 27-inch iMac Pro 3.2GHz/32GB/1TB for $3,600 in certified refurbished condition. Having originally retailed for $4,999, right now Apple will sell you a refurbished model for $649 more with today’s offer slashing up to $1,300 off and dropping the price to match our previous mention for the all-time low.

iMac Pro delivers a 27-inch Retina 5K display and comes backed by an 8-Core Xeon 3.2GHz processor, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD to earn the Pro nomenclature. Throw in the Radeon Pro Vega 56 graphics card, and you’ll be set for video editing, all-around content creation, and more. There are also four Thunderbolt 3 and four USB 3.0 ports as well as 10Gb Ethernet and SD card slots. Includes a 1-year warranty.

Today Anker is kicking off its latest Amazon sale headlined by the Anker Soundcore Liberty Air 2 True Wireless Earbuds at $80. Typically fetching $100, today’s offer is good for a 20% discount and brings the price down to match our previous mention for the all-time low.

Down from $699, a price you’ll find direct from Sonos and B&H, today’s offer saves you 24%, comes within $8 of our previous mention for the all-time low, and is one of the best we’ve seen otherwise. Sonos Playbase enhances your home theatre’s audio with a unique design that rests underneath your TV, taking up less space than the average soundbar. An internal audio array looks to deliver room-filling sound with six midrange drivers, three tweeters, and a woofer. Plus, smart capabilities bring AirPlay 2, whole-home playback, and more into the mix. Inputs include optical and Ethernet.
