In today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break we are still tracking a solid deal on AirPods Pro 3 alongside the return of Apple’s 24GB Midnight MacBook Air at $300 off the original price and this M5 MacBook Pro at nearly $300 less than the most affordable model Apple sells. Amazon is also clearing out Apple Watch Series 10 Titanium and Ultra 2 models at $300 off alongside a new all-time low on the medium-size Terra Cotta Alpine Loop and Insta360’s 2026 Spring sale at up to 30% off – Ace Pro 2 8K cam, GO Ultra, X5 action cam, and more. Head below for a closer look.

Amazon just dropped AirPods Pro 3 down to $210 (Within $10 of holiday price)

Apple’s 24GB Midnight MacBook Air back in-stock at $300 off the orig. price via Amazon

Amazon has been getting particularly aggressive with deal pricing on the 15-inch M4 MacBook Air now that the $50 launch deals on the new M5 model are live. And the Midnight 24GB M4 model is now back in-stock at $300 off the original list price. 

Amazon is now offering the 15-inch M4 MacBook Air with 24GB of RAM and 512GB storage starting at $1,299 shipped. While the Silver, Starlight, and Sky Blue models have been live for a couple days again now, the Midnight model just came back in stock at the particularly notable deal price. 

Previous to the new M5 model landing we had never tracked this 24GB M4 model with a discount this deep. Before this deal started to hit at the beginning of the month, this model had never dropped below $1,349, or $250 off the list price. 

While Apple has upped the storage tiers on the new M5 model, you’re still looking at a particular heavy discount here – the most affordable 15-inch 24GB M5 model Amazon sells carries a $1,699 list price and is currently selling for $1,650. And while that one does carry 1TB of storage now, the $1,299 price on the 512GB M4 is still clearly a serious value (effectively $200 less than the new pricing tiers on the M5). 

This M5 MacBook Pro is nearly $300 less than the most affordable model Apple sells now

The new M5 Pro MacBook Pro models are still seeing some launch deals this week, but we wanted to highlight this deal on the most affordable M5 MacBook Pro you can buy – the 512GB variant down at $1,399.99 shipped. This is nearly $300 under the least expensive M5 MacBook Pro Apple sells now. 

Amazon is currently offering the M5 MacBook Pro with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB internal SSD down at $1,399.99 shipped. 

This model launched at $1,599, and is now nearly $200 less than that. But now that Apple has done away with the 512GB storage tier permanently, this is actually nearly $300 under the lowest-priced model in the lineup. 

All of that said, considering Apple now starts the lineup with 16GB/1TB at $1,699, and you can score this model at $1,499.99 right now via Amazon, a realistic regular price on the 512GB model is more like $1,499 – Apple typically charges $200 for storage upgrades. 

But even still, this 512GB model isn’t even available from Apple and there’s no telling how much longer it will remain at retail (the silver model is already out of stock at Amazon). If you’re looking towards the most affordable way to secure some M5 power, this is very much it (on the Mac side of things). 

M5 Pro MacBook Pro launch week discounts

M5 MacBook Pro models up to $200 off

Don’t care about the latest models? Amazon clearing out Apple Watch Series 10 Titanium and Ultra 2 at $300 off

Amazon is serving up some seriously notable clearance pricing on Apple Watch Series 10 Titanium models and Apple Watch Ultra 2 right now. For some folks, only the latest models will do, but for others the differences aren’t worth the much higher price tags and we are currently tracking up to $300 off the original list prices on the Series 10 and Ultra 2 right now. Get in there quick if you’re one of them though – style, color, and size options are already starting to sell out. 

The really notable Apple Watch clearance deals on Amazon right now are coming by way of the higher-end Titanium Series 10 cell models. These configs carried $699 and as much as $799 regular price tags and the Series 11 models are still a whole lot more even at $100 off right now:

There are also still some notable clearance deals live on Apple Watch Ultra 2 at Amazon. While band options are beginning to dwindle, just remember the actual is the same on all of these and at $300 it might be worth just scooping one up while you can and scoring a brand later on. 

Apple’s medium-size Terra Cotta Alpine Loop just dropped again to a new all-time low at 30% off

Apple’s latest small/medium Trail Loop in black just hit its lowest price ever at Amazon

Today’s accessories and charging deals:

Official USB-C Apple Magic Mouse back down at $68 Amazon low today

Amazon now offering $100 off all-new Apple Studio Display and XDR models (Standard and nano texture)

We are still tracking a straight up $100 price drop on the standard glass model, but Amazon is now serving up the first cash discount on the brand new Nano Texture glass Apple Studio Display XDR at $100 off as well. 

Apple Studio Display/XDR deals:

As seen above Amazon is now offering straight up cash discounts on the all-new Apple Studio Display XDR with the Tilt- and Height-Adjustable Stand included. These deals deliver the first and only deals we have seen on the new display outside of the ongoing Best Buy offer for its paid members:

Now these monitors are clearly pro-level Apple accessories and seriously expensive at that – the $100 off isn’t likely to make all that much of difference to the sorts of folks that weren’t already willing to drop this sort of cash on a Studio Display anyway. But with that said, if you are going to be picking one up in the early days, you might as well keep the $100 in your pocket. 

Apple’s 2TB M5 iPad Pro hits Amazon all-time low at $200 off, or open-box at $374 off

The iPad deals are still flying this week, including price drops across the brand new M5 iPad Air lineup, as well as the latest iPad mini from $399 and iPad 11 from $299. But we also spotted a new all-time low landing this morning M5 iPad Pro – the 2TB 11-inch model is now $200 off at Amazon, and even less in open-box condition. 

We did see this configuration with a $150 price drop last month, but things have now dropped down even lower to deliver new Amazon all-time low pricing:

Amazon is now offering the latest 11-inch M5 iPad Pro with the 2TB storage configuration at $1,799 shipped in Space Black And Silver. You’re looking at one of the top of the line 11-inch models that carries a $1,999 list price and is now $200 off via Amazon. 

This deal is also matched at Best Buy right now, but you will find “excellent” condition open-box units on the 2TB 11-inch model down at $1,624.99 shipped right now – that’s $374 off the list with a 1-year Apple warranty included. 

But if you’re looking for something even less pricey, scope out the deals we are tracking this week on the new M5 iPad Air, iPad mini, and iPad 11 below:

iPad 11 from $299

iPad mini from $399

M3 iPad Air Cell from $599

MacBook launch week deals: Up to $320 off Air, $200 off M5 Pro models, Neo from $569, more
