The fall Prime Day Apple are seriously kicking off early today folks. We have AirPods Pro 3 at one of the lowest prices ever and AirPods Max 2 at $120 off joined by all-time low pricing on the M6 Mac mini lineup at up to $150 off and loads of M5 MacBook Air models at $200 off. On top of that, we are now tracking the first solid discounts on Apple Watch Series 12 models and Apple Watch Ultra 4 at up to nearly $100 off alongside all-time lows on a collection of Apple’s new iPhone 18 Pro/Max cases, rare discounts on Magic Mouse, and the first deal on Apple’s brand new Magic Keyboard. Scope it all out below. 

Amazon starts unloading Apple fall Prime Day deals: AirPods Pro 3, MacBook Air, Mac mini $150 off, Magic Mouse, more

Best Buy launches giant Techtober Prime Day sale! Apple, Android, TVs, home goods, games, more up to 50% off

Hello! AirPods Pro 3 just dropped to one of the best prices ever at $179 via Amazon (Reg. $249)

Heads up folks, Amazon is now offering one of the best prices ever on Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 at $179 – fall Prime Day is truly getting off to an early start this year. 

Amazon is now offering the latest AirPods Pro 3 down at $179 shipped. Regularly $249, this is a solid $70 off the list price and easily one of the lowest prices we have ever tracked. 

Apple did just release the all-new AirPods 5, but AirPods Pro 3 remain the flagship, top-of-the-line option, delivering better battery life, as much as 3x better active noise cancellation, built-in hearty rate sensing, and more. 

The new AirPods 5 with ANC and the Wireless Charging Case carry a $149 list price, but you can now score the Pro set for just $30 more as part of this early Prime Day sale. 

AirPods Max 2 just fell back to one of the lowest prices ever, now $120 off (All colors)

Amazon has already dropped the AirPods Pro 3 down at $170 to deliver one of the lowest prices ever, and it has just done the same for the latest AirPods Max 2 – they are now $120 off in all five colors. 

Amazon is now offering Apple’s latest 2026 AirPods Max 2 down at $429 shipped. This price is now live on all five colorways: Midnight, Blue, Orange, Purple, and Starlight. 

Regularly $549, this a straight up $120 price drop and among the lowest prices we have ever tracked. 

Only once before today have we have ever seen the latest AirPods Max 2 drop any lower than $429 in brand new condition – it was during the summer Prime Day when they dropped to $399. 

Heads up! Apple’s brand new M6 Mac mini just dropped to the lowest prices ever at up to $150 off

The brand new M6 Mac mini as well as the high-end M5 Max model have now dropped to all-time low prices at up to nearly $150 off. The Apple deals are flying now with AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods Max 2 already at some of the lowest prices ever, and, surprisingly enough, Apple’s brand new Mac mini is landing with a serious discount starting today.

While we did catch some light $20 launch discounts on the mini lineup, today we are getting the first proper discounts at up to nearly $150 off to deliver the lowest prices ever:

All configurations Amazon sells, outside of the 24GB M6 model, have now dropped to Amazon all-time low pricing. You’re looking at just shy of $120 off on the base and most affordable model, and just under $150 off for the upgraded 16GB/512GB as well as the 24GB M5 Max chip-equipped setup.

Almost all M5 MacBook Air models just hit the best price in months at $200 off in early fall Prime Day sale

Amazon is now offering almost all M5 MacBook Air models at an impressive $200 off the list prices. The fall Prime Day Apple deals are seriously flying already today with AirPods Pro 3 down to one of the lowest prices ever at $70 off and the very first deals on the new official Apple iPhone 18 Pro/Max cases, but Amazon is also now offering the best deals on M5 MacBook Air we have tracked in months. 

Amazon is now offering the 13-inch M5 MacBook Air starting down at $1,099, and the 15-inch model starting from $1,299 – that’s $200 off:

While there are a couple colors on select configs that are out of stock or just haven’t dropped down this low yet, just about all of them are, by and large, at the best prices we have tracked since early June. 

Apple’s new Mac Studio drops to new Amazon all-time low at nearly $200 off today

The fall Prime Day Apple deals are flooding in now. Just after seeing AirPods Pro 3 drop to one of the lowest prices ever and new all-time lows across various M6 Mac mini models at up to $150 off, Amazon has now dropped Apple’s brand new Mac Studio to its best price ever at nearly $200 off.

Amazon is now offering the new Apple Mac Studio with 36GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage down at $2,299.99 shipped. 

Most affordable new Apple Watch Series 12 models hit all-time lows at nearly $50 off today

Alongside AirPods Pro 3 at one of the lowest prices to date, early this morning we spotted Amazon serving up the best prices yet on the new Apple Watch Series 12, but really only on the more expensive Cell models. However, it has started to drop the price on the popular standard versions to deliver new all-time low pricing starting from $350. 

As you can see above, the Cell variants are now joined but the nearly $50 price drops on both the 42mm and 46mm standard models to deliver the lowest price of entry into the new Series 12 lineup we have tracked to date. 

Apple Watch Ultra 4 just hit all-time low pricing at nearly $100 off

The fall Prime Day Apple deals are already flying folks and the brand new Apple Watch Ultra 4 just fell to its best price to date at nearly $100 off. This offers joins AirPods Pro 3 down at $70 off, the first notable discounts on Apple Watch Series 12, and all-time lows on the brand new M6 Mac mini too. 

Amazon is now offering the new Apple Watch Ultra 4 with the Natural Titanium Case and Apple’s all-new Translucent Gray Ocean Band down at $699.99 shipped. 

Regularly $799, this is the first sizable price drop we have tracked since launch last month, delivering just shy of $100 in savings on Apple’s gorgeous new Ultra 4 with the see-through Ocean Band. As of right now, the Black case configuration with the Translucent Black Ocean Band is currently unavailable, but the deal on that one could be on the way shortly – stay tuned. 

That said, there are some other configurations now also sitting down at all-time low pricing with the same $99 discount:

First deals hit official Apple iPhone 18 Pro/Max cases from under $42: TechWoven, Silicone, more

Not only did AirPods Pro 3 just drop down to one of the lowest prices ever at $70 off, but Amazon is also delivering the very first discounts on Apple’s brand new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max cases starting from under $42. 

Amazon is now offering the brand new Apple iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro MaxPro TechWoven case in various colorways down at $50 shipped. 

Regularly $59, this is a solid 15% off, the first cash discount since release last month, and a subsequent Amazon all-time low. 

The same thing applies to the 18 Pro Clear Case down at $41.50 and the Silicone Case with MagSafe for both 18 Pro and the larger 18 Pro Max at the same $41.50 shipped– both options are now at Amazon all-time lows as well.
