Deals: Apple Watch Series 10 for $99 or AirPods 4 from $84 with elevated trade-in offers, chargers, and more

While pre-orders on the Apple Watch Series 10black Apple Watch Ultra 2AirPods 4, and more are now live, today we spotted some seriously notable ways to score some deals via trade-ins. Firstly Best Buy is offering $300 on good condition Series 9 (41mm and 45mm) against Series 10 pre-orders – that yields a price as low as $99 for Apple’s latest. This same kind of thing is available for AirPods 4 too – you can score $45 off your pre-order via AirPods 3 trade-ins, which delivers the lowest price we have tracked yet. All of that, loads of exclusive offers on new iPhone 16 gear, and more await down below.

How to get a deal on Apple Watch Series 10

Score Apple Watch Series 10 at $99 with Best Buy’s elevated Series 9 trade-in values ($300 off)

Let’s talk about how to get a deal on Apple Watch Series 10. Now officially revealed and up for pre-order, the new Apple Watch Series 10 with a new design – the first since 2021, thinner case, larger screen, and new watch faces. But let’s go over how to score one without paying full price. As we detailed in our pre-order post, folks with Amazon or Best Buy store credit/gift cards can now leverage it against one of the shiny new Apple Watch models, but Best Buy is now stepping in with elevated trade-in values that can net you the new Series 10 starting at just $99. Head below for more details. 

But with Best Buy’s elevated trade-in values right now, you can score the new Series 10 for $399 and get $300 back for a Series 9 – that’s a total of $99 for a new Apple Watch Series 10.  

Follow these steps to ensure you get this:

  1. Navigate to the Apple Watch Series 10 listing page, and add the configuration you want to your cart. 
  2. Then navigate to your cart, and hit the “Check Trade-In Value” button. 
  3. Follow the on-screen prompts – enter Apple and Series 9 in the appropriate menus – and choose “Good” condition.  
  4. And then hit the “Search” button at the bottom, select your Series 9 from the results, and then “Add it to Cart”
  5. This will then load up your cart with both the new Series 10 and the trade-in, effectively knocking the price down to $99 for the Series 10.

Best Buy now offering AirPods 4 from $84 with AirPods 3 trade-ins (Reg. $129 – $179)

This morning we featured an extremely notable opportunity to trade in Series 9 for Apple Watch Series 10 to score $300 off your purchase. And now we are turning our attention to AirPods 4. As of right now, Apple isn’t even offering trade-ins for me towards its new AirPods 4 when trying to place a pre-order (and neither is Amazon), but Best Buy is. As of right now, with a set of AirPods 3 in good condition, for example, you can knock $45 off your pre-order of the new 4 series buds yielding prices stating from $84, or the lowest we have seen yet. Head below for the details. 

Again, just like the Apple Watch Series 10 trade-in offer we featured this morning, this is how to make it all happen:

  1. Navigate to the AirPods 4 listing page, and add the configuration you want to your cart. 
  2. Then navigate to your cart, and hit the “Check Trade-In Value” button. 
  3. Follow the on-screen prompts – enter Apple and AirPods in the appropriate menus – and choose “Good” condition, “Yes,” and “Yes” in the three options presented.  
  4. And then hit the “Search” button at the bottom, select your AirPods 3 from the results, and then “Add it to Cart”
  5. This will then load up your cart with both the new AirPods 4 and the trade-in, effectively knocking the price down to $84 for the basic model and $134 for the ANC set.

MacBook Air M3 15-inch deals

Save $250 on Apple’s 15-inch M3 MacBook Air today, models with 16GB RAM start at $1,349

While all eyes are on the more mobile and wearable gear Apple debuted at yesterday’s Glowtime event – the new Apple Watch Series 10black Apple Watch Ultra 2AirPods 4, and more all now available for pre-order, the deals on the latest M3 MacBook Air are continuing today. We are still tracking one of the lowest prices ever on a 13-inch model with 16GB of RAM, but today we spotted some deals for folks looking to land some extra real-state with the 15-inch variant. Amazon has now brought back its $250 price drop on the 16GB/512GB model at $1,449 shipped to match the lowest we have tracked. But we do have another option to land a 15-incher with 16GB RAM for even less below. 

If you can make do with the lowest storage tier Apple offers, over at B&H you’ll find the 15-inch model with 16GB of RAM and a 256GB internal SSD marked down to $1,349 shipped. This might only be $150 off the regular $1,499 price tag, but it is also the lowest point of entry we can find on the 16GB models. 

Apple Pencil Pro with Find My on sale down at $115 today via Amazon

We haven’t seen very many price drops on Apple’s new pro-grade Pencil since it debuted alongside the M4 iPad Pro and M2 iPad Air. But today Amazon is offering Apple Pencil Pro down at $114.99 shipped. The regularly $129 top-of-the-line Apple Pencil did fall to $110 for a brief time at Amazon in late July, but today’s deal is otherwise the lowest price we have tracked there since release. 

Made specifically for the new M4 iPad Pro and M2 iPad Air, they are in fact the only machines Apple says are compatible with Apple Pencil Pro (at least for now anyway). You’ll find a detailed breakdown of all this in our Apple Pencil Pro vs USB-C, 2, and 1 feature right here

Apple’s M2 Pro Mac mini with 16GB of RAM returns to $1,150 low, plus M2 model at $499

Update: Amazon is now serving up a $49.01 on-page coupon to knock the latest M2 Pro Mac mini back down to its $1,149.99 low. This is $149 off, matching our previous mention/Prime Day, and the best we can find. Details below in original post.

While the Mac mini lineup is set to receive the M4 treatment this fall – it is very much looking like they will essentially be an iPad Pro inside a small box, we just spotted the return of one of the best prices yet on the current M2 Pro model. The entry-level configurations are $100 off once again from $499, but Amazon just launched a new on-page coupon that drops the regularly $1,299 M2 Pro model down to $1,149.99 shipped. That’s nearly $149 off, marking the return of the Prime Day price and matching the lowest we have tracked on Amazon all year.
