All of Monday’s best deals are now up for the taking, thanks to our pals over at 9to5Toys. On tap to start the week, a new all-time low has arrived on Apple Pencil 2 at $85. That’s joined by much of the same best price ever status on Apple Watch Ultra at $702. Not to mention, Apple’s new M2 MacBook Air with MagSafe now at $199 off. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
Apple Pencil 2 falls to new all-time low of $85
After Apple just launched Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro on iPadOS devices last week, Amazon today is rolling out a fitting markdown on the companion Apple Pencil 2. The popular accessory has been deemed a must-have by practically any iPadOS user, and now you can score an even better price. Typically fetching $129, right now the stylus drops to $85 at Amazon. That’s stacking up to $44 in savings alongside delivering a new all-time low. This is an extra $4 below our previous mention and the first time it has dropped below $89.
Compatible with everything from the just-released iPad Air 5 to the Pro models and even Apple’s compact iPad mini, Apple Pencil 2 elevates the experience be it for drawing, taking handwritten notes, or just getting more precise input. Its refreshed design magnetically snaps onto the side of your device for storage and also in order to recharge for a streamlined package. There’s also the unique new hover features that are rolling out to the new M2 models.
Apple Watch Ultra falls to new Amazon all-time low of $702
Amazon is now offering the best price ever on Apple Watch Ultra. Right now, the titanium case with yellow Ocean Band is resting at $702 from the usual $799 going rate. Not only is this $97 off the going rate, but a new all-time low. It’s $28 below our previous mentions and still one of the first-ever chances to save.
Apple Watch Ultra arrives as the most capable wearable ever from Apple with an even more rugged design that the usual Series 8 offerings, or any of its predecessors for that matter. Everything about that improved feature set is packed into a titanium case that encircles the larger 49mm screen that’s the brightest Always-On Retina display yet. A more distinct side module encompasses the Digital Crown and customizable action button, rounding out the form-factor change with 100-meter water-resistance. Then there’s all the actual features like 36-hour battery life, dual-frequency GPS, and everything else you can read about over in our coverage.
Apple’s new M2 MacBook Air with MagSafe now $199 off
Amazon is now offering the second-best price to date on Apple’s latest M2 MacBook Air. Available in both Space Gray and Silver styles, today’s offer lands on the 256GB configuration at $1,000. These are both down from the usual $1,199 going rate with $199 in savings attached. While we’ve seen pricing land at $1 below today’s offer once before, the discounts here arrive as the second-best chances to save yet. We’ve only seen a $1,000 going rate twice before, too. Those who need even more storage in their portable machine will also find the elevated 512GB capacities getting in on the savings. Also clocking in at $199 off, three styles of the larger capacity models sell for $1,300.
Apple’s all-new M2 MacBook Air comes powered by its latest in-house chip and pairs with a refreshed form-factor. The 13-inch Liquid Retina Display sports a 500-nit brightness to complete the P3 wide color support and pairs with a 1080p FaceTime camera with three-mic array and Spatial Audio-enabled speakers. Though the real highlight has to be the return of MagSafe charging, which pairs with other I/O like dual Thunderbolt ports. Learn more about the entry-level configuration’s performance.
Beats Studio Buds deliver ANC and ‘Hey Siri’ support at $94.50
Ahead of the new Plus version expected to launch later this month, Amazon is beginning to clear out the Beats Studio Buds. While we’ve seen most of the colorways down at $100 already this spring, the more recent Moon Gray stylings are now marked down to $94. Typically fetching $150, this is not only a nearly $56 discount, but also $6 under our previous mention and the lowest since the very beginning of the year. Pricing did start at $90 back in January, but this is the second-best discount of the year and the lowest price since.
Beats Studio Buds arrive as some of the brand’s latest workout companions, delivering a true wireless form-factor that’s ideal for tagging along on workouts as well as your typical daily wear, with active noise cancellation joining the feature set on top of a transparency mode. Other notable inclusions like Hey Siri support, a compact charging case with USB-C that brings battery life up to 24 hours, and IPX4 water-resistance complete the package. Dive into our hands-on review for a closer look. Then head below for a more affordable pair of Beats earbuds that are also at the second-best prices to date.
Save up to $449 on cert. refurb iPhone 13
Through the end of the day, Woot is now offering certified refurbished iPhone 13 from $550 for unlocked models in five different colors. Shipping is free for Prime members, with a flat $6 fee applying in any other case. Down from its original $799 going rate, today’s offer arrives with $249 in savings attached. It’s a match of the all-time low for only the second time and is the best price in a month, too. There’s also added savings on higher capacity models, with the 512GB configuration sitting at $650 from its usual $1,099 price tag, delivering $449 in savings along the way.
The now previous-generation iPhone 13 arrives as an even better value thanks to the discount today, and comes powered by the A15 Bionic chip. Alongside notably improved battery life compared to predecessors, there’s also that same squared-off design as last time around to pair with the Super Retina XDR display with a smaller notch. There’s also an upgraded camera experience with its more recent Cinematic mode and improved sensors, too. Includes a 90-day warranty. Dive into our coverage over here for a closer look at how the previous-generation experience holds up these days
