Alongside the ongoing AirPods Pro 3 discount back at holiday pricing, today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is headlined by an M5 MacBook Air deals at just $50 more than this M4 MacBook Air 512GB ($300 off original list) and all of this week’s Apple Watch deals: Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Series 11 are up to $100 off from $299. We also have the brand new M4 iPad Air at up to $100 off with deals starting from $551, and Apple’s least pricey current-gen iPad back at $299 and the first discount on the brand new black metal Satechi 25W 3-in-1 MagSafe Stand. Head below for a closer look at the details.

This week’s AirPods Pro 3 deal is now live, back at $200 holiday pricing

Late last week we reported an upcoming deal on Apple’s flagship AirPods Pro 3. That deal went live early yesterday morning and appears will remain as we move into a new work week.

Amazon is now offering AirPods Pro 3 down at $199.99 shipped. Regularly $249, this was the discount advertised last week, delivering holiday worthy pricing as we move deeper into the spring. 

M4 MacBook Air 512GB is $300 off at $899, but same M5 model is just $50 more right now

Alongside a re-stock on some of the 15-inch M4 MacBook Air models, we just spotted this 13-inch M4 MacBook Air with 16GB of RAM and the 512GB storage down at $899 shipped – but you can score the same M5 model for just $50 more right now as well.

We have tracked several notable deals on M4 models since the new M5 lineup arrived last month. While options quickly sold out at clearance pricing, some have now returned and are now joined by this particularly notable deal on the 16GB/512GB 13-inch – this is $300 off the original list price. 

The clearance deals on the less pricey 13-inch models have been hard to come by and we suspect this deal on the Sky Blue model will be very soon as well.

Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Series 11 are up to $100 off this week with deals from $299

Alongside this week’s deal on AirPods Pro 3, the Apple Watch price drops are also flying. The hangover and quite rare discounts on a few different Apple Watch Ultra 3 models are also now joined by an extensive selection of Apple Watch Series 11 price drops starting back down at $299 lows ($100 off). 

I, as many 9to5Toys readers will already know, am a big fan of the look and feel of Apple Watch Ultra on my wrist. It is certainly a sizable investment, but one I have very much appreciated and now that Ultra 3 models are seeing nearly $100 discounts, it might be time for an upgrade to the latest model.

While not all band configurations are seeing the solid discount, the one-size fits all Ocean Bands are, much like the high-end and particularly gorgeous Milanese Loop setups:

For those not so enamored by Apple’s high-end Ultra model, the latest Series 11 models are a much more budget-friendly solution and one that is, arguably, just as feature-rich considering the way most folks use them. 

As of this week, Amazon is delivering $100 price drops on just about every configuration it sells starting down at the 42mm base models from $299 and moving right up into the higher-end configurations. We have seen the pricey Titanium models and the odd one-off band option go for less, but you are by and large looking at a match of the best deals to date on the most sought-after variants:

Brand new M4 iPad Air up to $100 off with deals starting from $551

This morning we are checking back in with Apple’s brand new M4 iPad Air lineup. Amazon is delivering configurations at up to $100 off and, on the more affordable end of the spectrum, various colors have now returned to all-time low pricing alongside deals from $551 shipped. 

The iPad Air, much like the MacBook lineup, delivers the best value in Apple tablets if you ask me. You’re landing an M-powered machine that is likely more than capable enough for all but the most power-hungry of users, and one that comes in at a whole heck of a lot less than the M5 iPad Pro (or even the previous M4 models for that matter). 

Pricing has remained discounted, if not relatively stagnant, but there are select models and colorways that have now dropped down even lower or back to the best we have tracked since release last month.

For those of you looking towards an even more casual and affordable solution, the current-generationiPad 11 has now dropped back down to $299, landing over $250 under the lowest-priced M4 iPad Air. Details on those offers await right here. 

Apple’s least pricey current-gen iPad is back down at $299 today

We are catching a nice batch of mid-April Apple deals this week, including AirPods Pro 3 back at holiday pricing and straight up $100 price drops on Apple Watch Series 11, among others. However, you can also add Apple’s most affordable current-generation iPad to that list as it has now dropped back down to $299 at Amazon. 

Amazon is now offering the 11-inch iPad (A16) down at $299 shipped in most colors. 

Regularly $349, and certainly a deal we have tracked more than a few times, pricing jumped back up much closer to full list after the March spring sales. Today, we are getting another chance at the lowest prices of the year. 

The latest iPad 11 is certainly not for power users, or really anyone willing to drop the $552+ for the latest iPad Air. But it can be a wonderful option for the family or just to give the kids some iPad experience without spending a fortune. All of that said, I also think it can be a useful and relatively affordable (by Apple standards) option for just about anyone, be it as a travel companion, for road trips, or just some light browsing while binging Netflix or something like that. 

First deal hits new black metal Satechi 25W 3-in-1 MagSafe Stand today

Satechi finally unleashed its first 3-in-1 Qi2 25W Charging Stand last week, and it is gorgeous. Today, we are getting our first deal on the new model as a new on-page coupon has popped up on Amazon to drop the price down to $116.99 shipped. 

The brand new 3-in-1 Foldable Wireless Charging Stand is now available on Amazon down at $116.99 shipped after you clip the on-page coupon. It just launched last week at $130 and is now seeing the first chance at savings and a subsequent Amazon all-time low price. 

If any of you saw my hands-on review of this unit recently, you’ll know there were a few notable takeaways – this thing is supremely gorgeous with a Space Black metal design, smooth curves, and a solid build. The magnet however left a lot to be desired for me, but that is only because I happen to receive a fault early run unit. My colleagues who also received one said the magnet is great and Satechi assures me the unit I received does not reflect the commercially available units. 

All of that said, you are very much looking at one of the more attractive 3-in-1 units out there, and now it boasts Qi2 25W action on the main MagSafe pad alongside the usual AirPods charger in the base and the pop-out Apple Watch charger around back. It also ships with a 45W USB-C power adapter in the box.

Today’s accessories and charging deals:

Recently upgraded 32GB/1TB M5 MacBook Pro drops back to Amazon low, more up to $200 off

We are still tracking $150 off the more affordable end of the new 2026 M5 Pro MacBook Pro lineup and as much as $200 off the upgraded 16-inch models as we move into this week. However, the less pricey M5 MacBook Pro models Apple just upgraded with higher storage tiers are also dropping back to the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon since that time. 

M5 MacBook Pro

While the deals on the new entry 16GB/1TB M5 MacBook Pro aren’t quite as low as we were tracking on this config previous to the storage increase last month, Amazon all-time low pricing is now once again live on the 32GB model and the 24GB/1TB is sitting back very close to the lowest price of the year now:
