Wednesday’s best deals: Apple MagSafe Charger drops to $33, latest iPad Air $50 off, more

We’re at the halfway point in the workweek, and all of today’s best deals are headlined by the second-best offer to date on Apple’s official MagSafe charger at $33. That’s alongside a notable iPad Air discount for $50 off and a clearance event on the latest Intel 4K iMacs at $399 off. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

Take MagSafe for a spin with Apple’s official Charger at $33

Amazon currently offers Apple’s new MagSafe Charger for $33. Down from $39, today’s offer is still one of the first notable discounts we’ve seen, marks the lowest we’ve seen over a month, and is the second-best price to date.

If you picked up one of Apple’s latest handsets last fall or anytime since, the new MagSafe Charger from Apple is certainly worth bringing into your kit. Delivering a magnetic design that will snap onto the back of your iPhone 12, it provides up to 15W of power without having to plug in a cable. 

Latest iPad Air arrives at the second-best price to date

Amazon is currently offering the latest 10.9-inch Apple iPad Air Wi-Fi 64GB for $549. Normally fetching $599, today’s offer amounts to $50 in savings, beats our previous mention by $1, and is the second-best price to date. You’ll also be able to lock-in the same $50 savings on higher-end storage capacities as well as Wi-Fi + Cellular models

If you don’t need all of the power of the new M1 iPad Pros, going with Apple’s latest iPad Air provides a similar overall experience but at an even more affordable price, thanks to today’s discounts. You’re looking at a 10.9-inch edge-to-edge Liquid Retina display with support for Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard accessories. Powered by the new A14 Bionic processor, there’s also the grand return of Touch ID in the power button alongside up to 256GB of storage, USB-C charging, and up to 10-hour battery life. 

Amazon clears out Apple’s latest Intel 21-inch 4K iMac with $399 discount

Amazon is offering the 2020 21.5-inch iMac i5/8GB/256GB for $949. That’s down $150 from the usual fare, marking a new all-time low and one of the best-priced iMacs we can find. As one of Apple’s last desktop iterations without the upgraded M1 processor, you can save a ton over the newer models and still walk away with a premium machine. Powered by a dual-core Intel i5 chip, you can take advantage of 2.3GHz processing speeds that’ll boost up to 3.6GHz for gaming and streaming. The 1080p display is complemented by integrated Iris Plus Graphics 640. And rounding out the hardware, you’ll find twin Thunderbolt 3 ports, the FaceTime HD webcam, and a Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse 2 included in the box.

HealthKit-enabled eufy smart scale hits $20

eufy’s official Amazon storefront has the Anker Smart Scale C1 for $20. Typically fetching $33, you’re looking at nearly 40% in savings with today’s offer matching our previous mention for the best price to date. Anker’s eufy smart scale is a great way to get the most out of your workouts and exercise routine thanks to a variety of sensors. It even pairs with Apple Heath and Google Fit to bring the data into your preferred ecosystem.

meross 2-in-1 HomeKit Dual Smart Plugs hit all-time lows from $14

The official meross Amazon storefront is offering its 2-pack of HomeKit Dual Outlet Smart Plugs for $25. If the 2-pack is overkill for your needs, you can score a single one of these plugs on sale for $14. Regularly up to $34, this is up to 35% off the going rate and among the lowest prices we have tracked yet at Amazon. These no hub-required outlets are a simple way to add some additional plugs to your HomeKit rig, but they are also compatible with Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant, and SmartThings setups. Alongside voice command support, the design allows you to get two, spaced-out plugs per wall outlet. This effectively doubles your receptacle options, all with smartphone control, scheduling, and more.
