We are starting the week off with a solid $50 price drop on AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods Max 2 at $120 off, but today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is headlined by MacBook Pro. We are now tracking a massive $600 price drop hits Apple’s 24GB M5 Pro to deliver one of the best MacBook deals of the year alongside a host of other configurations you’ll find below. You also still have a chance at M6 Mac mini all-time lows at up to $150 off if you’re quick (they are starting to disappear), a series of discounts on Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro cases, and this deal on Apple Pencil (USB-C) for your iPhone Duo. All of that and more awaits below.

Massive $600 price drop hits Apple’s 24GB M5 Pro (One of the best MacBook Pro deals of the year)

We caught more than our fair share of notable Mac deals for Prime Day last week, not the least of which new all-time lows on the M6 Mac mini that are still live right now. However, the price just plummeted on Apple’s most affordable 2TB M5 Pro MacBook Pro at Amazon – it is now $600 off the list price. 

Amazon is now offering the 14-inch 2TB M5 Pro MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM and 2TB of storage at $2,399 shipped. 

This is a regularly $2,999 machine now seeing a straight up $600 price drop to deliver the lowest price we have tracked in months, fall Prime Day included. 

That was effectively the same price it dropped to for the summer Prime Day event too and that was before the official price hikes hit the MacBook lineup in and around the same time. 

It is also very much worth noting that this is actually $200 under the pre-price hike MSRP. After official price hikes hit loads of tech tech out there in the last 3 to 6 months, most the deals are just dropping things back to the previous list prices, but this would have been a good deal even before the price increases. 

We did see the more pricey 24GB/2TB 14-inch M5 Pro with the 18-Core/20-Core setup at $500 off a number of times over the last couple months, but this is a much less expensive machine that is now seeing an even deeper deal – easily one of the best MacBook deals of the year if you ask me.

M6 Mac mini all-time lows starting to disappear, get in there at $150 off while you still can

The up to $150 price drops on the new M6 Mac mini lineup have been quite popular around here, and while Amazon has given us an extended shot at the Prime Day lows, they are starting to jump back up – get in there while you can. 

Amazon offered between $120 and $150 off the new M6 Mac mini lineup for fall Prime Day (this also includes the new higher-end M5 Pro model as well). As of this morning, prices are starting to jump back up on some of them and you might want to get in on the action before they are all gone:

The 24GB M6 Mac mini and the M5 Pro model have already now jumped back up in price and there’s no telling when they might return. At the time of writing, we are, however, still catching some notable discounts on the most affordable model and the mid-range 16GB/512GB configuration (as well as the new Mac Studio you see above at the all-time low). 

These aren’t the just light early adopter deals we saw previously either. It would have been entirely possible for Amazon to just knock $50 to $100 off these machines at most, and they might have been just as popular a pickup, but at $120 to $150 off, these are seriously notable discounts that might been gone any minute. 

Don’t pay full price for iPhone Duo-ready Apple Pencil (USB-C), Amazon has it for less

Here are all of Apple’s official iPhone 18 Pro cases sitting at Amazon all-time lows from $39

As Prime Day pricing starts to jump back up on Apple gear, we are taking stock of the all-time low prices still live across the official Apple iPhone 18 Pro/Max case lineup starting from $41.50 shipped – this Olive 18 Pro Silicone model has actually dropped even lower to $39.

There are several color options that have jumped back up or gone out of stock now, but there are just as many or more that are still sitting at the Amazon all-time lows. These deals are the first solid discounts we have tracked since the new case colors debuted alongside the iPhone 18 Pro lineup last month, and you’ll find them waiting below if you’re looking for an official first-party solution for your new 18 Pro:

You can still score the 2026 AirPods Max 2 at $120 off (All colors)

The hangover Apple Prime Day deals are still flying, with M6 Mac mini all-time lows and Apple Watch Series 12 deals, but some of the prices are starting to jump back up now. Amazon’s AirPods Pro 3 price has gone up $20 (still a pretty solid deal) and we wanted to make sure the AirPods Max 2 deal at $120 off was front and center while it is still rolling. 

Amazon is currently offering Apple’s 2026 AirPods Max 2 over-ear headphones down at $429 shipped. This is the same price we tracked for fall Prime Day this week and it is still live on all five colorways. 

As you might know, the current-gen AirPods Max cary a $549 list price. This is a premium set of headphones with some of the better ANC you can buy and a truly premium build – the latter is, perhaps, where Max 2 really standout from the competition if you ask me. 

Today’s deal delivers a solid $120 in savings and delivers one of the lowest prices we have tracked to date. Only once previous to today have they sold for less – that was a limited-time offer at $399 this past summer – and this is only the second time we have seen them down this low otherwise. 

It’s hard to say for sure how long this offer might stick around for considering fall Prime Day is long gone now. If they do make it into the weekend at this price which is certainly not a guarantee, chances are this deal will be gone when you wake up on Monday morning.
