Apple’s latest 512GB M2 Mac mini falls to new all-time low at $109 off

Amazon is now offering a new all-time low on Apple’s latest M2 Mac mini. Notably dropping the 512GB version down to $690, you’d more regularly pay $799. Today’s offer amounts to $109 in savings while beating our previous mention by $10 in order to land at the best price ever. Those who can get away with less storage will also find the entry-level 256GB capacity at $549, down from $599. 

Apple’s all-new M2 Mac mini refreshes a beloved form-factor to feature its latest-generation of in-house silicon. There’s that same compact build that has made previous versions so popular amongst first-time Mac owners, as well as streamlined workstation users and homelabbers alike. The improved performance of the M2 chip also pairs with dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, a pair of USB-A slots, an HDM output, and Gigabit Ethernet. You’ll also find Wi-Fi 6E, and at least an 8-core CPU backed by a 10-core GPU and 256GB of storage. We detail what to expect from the experience in a recent hands-on review, too.

Save $50 on Apple’s all-new 10.9-inch iPad in four fun colors

Amazon and Best Buy are now offering some of the first discounts to date on Apple’s latest 10.9-inch iPad. Now starting at $399 shipped for the entry-level Wi-Fi 64GB model, you’re looking at $50 in savings courtesy of both Amazon and Best Buy. Multiple colorways are available, and today’s offer marks the first discount we’ve seen since back in December. It’s right down at the all-time low, as well. Elevated storage capacity offerings are also on sale at $50 off, not to mention the Wi-Fi + Cellular models receiving much of the same price cuts.

Apple’s latest 10.9-inch iPad was just refreshed right before winter with a more colorful design and more mid-range specs that make this quite the compelling alternative to the more Pro side of the lineup. Powered by the A14 Bionic chip, the whole experience is centered around a 10-inch Liquid Retina display backed by True Tone. Then packed within that new form-factor are many of the staples we’ve come to expect like Touch ID in the power button, a 12MP UltraWide camera with Center Stage that now arrives in a design that’s dedicated more towards landscape usage, as well as Wi-Fi and 5G for more flexible connectivity. Get a closer look in our launch coverage.

Official Apple Watch bands go on sale from $19

Woot is now discounting a collection of official Apple Watch bands, all of which start at $19. Shipping is free across the board for Prime members, with a $6 delivery fee applying otherwise. Our favorite of the assortment drops the official Apple Watch Milanese Loop Bands to $53. Available in both 45 and 41mm stylings across several colorways, today’s offer is down from the usual $99 going rate to deliver the best discounts of the year. The 46% in savings undercuts our previous $81 mention and provides as one of the lowest prices ever.

Arriving as one of Apple’s most premium Watch bands, the Milanese Loop is something of the company’s most iconic style. Its silver or gold colorways pair perfectly with nearly all of the Apple Watch case colors while delivering on the woven metal look that wraps your wrist in fluid stainless steel mesh. It has a magnetic clasp to get the perfect fit and will elevate the look of everything from Apple Watch Series 8 to Ultra wearables and more.

Anker’s MagGo Slim MagSafe Power Bank complements iPhone 14 at $35

Anker’s official Amazon storefront today is now discounting a pair of its MagSafe power banks headlined by the new MagGo Slim Battery Pack at $34.99 shipped in two styles. Normally fetching $60, this is one of the first times we’ve seen it drop to the all-time low. It’s 42% off, and the best we’ve seen since back in January. Packing 5,000mAh of juice into a refreshed design, the newest Anker MagSafe Power Bank is more compact than before in order to live up to its slim naming scheme. The colorful designs output 7.5W charging speeds much like the official offering from Apple, with a 20W USB-C port rounding out the package. You can get some additional insight in our recent hands-on review, too. 

Outfit your M2 Pro MacBook Pro with Satechi’s USB4 Pro Hub Max

Perfect for upgrading your new M2 Pro MacBook Pro setup, Satechi’s official Amazon storefront now offers its Pro Hub Max USB-C Hub for $75. Typically fetching $100, you’re looking at 25% in savings and the second-best price of the year. This is $5 below our previous mention in a spring sitewide sale a week or so back, and the lowest we’ve seen in months.

As one of the more feature-packed USB-C adapters from Satechi, its recent Pro Hub Max arrives with an array of eight different ports. Plugging right into the side of your Pro/Max MacBook Pro (be it the new M2 model or existing M1 releases), it notably features a pair of USB-C ports (one of which has 96W charging and 6K display support) there’s also a USB-C data slot, 4K60Hz HDMI, and a legacy USB-A port. Not to mention a pair of SD card readers, a 3.5mm audio jack, and a Gigabit Ethernet input to round out the package. You can get a closer look our Tested with 9to5Toys review, too.
