All of Thursday’s best deals can be found below, thanks to our fine friends over at 9to5Toys. First on tap are a series of discounts on Anker’s MagGo iPhone 14 MagSafe accessories, which are joined by some fitting spring savings on the official Apple Watch Alpine Loop band at $83. And if your M2 MacBook could use a desktop upgrade, Belkin’s Thunderbolt 4 Dock Pro has dropped to a new $300 low. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
Anker’s MagGo iPhone 14 MagSafe accessories on sale
Anker’s official Amazon storefront today is rolling out the red carpet on some discounts across its MagGo MagSafe charging lineup. Including at-home offerings for the desk and nightstand to portable power banks for taking some juice on the road, everything ships free for Prime members or in orders over $25. A particular standout is delivering the best price of the year on Anker’s MagGo 2-in-1 MagSafe Battery Pack Charging Station at $96. Available in all three colorways, this hybrid accessory typically sells for $120 and is now on sale at the best price of the year. Those $24 in savings undercut our previous $103 mention by $7 in order to land at one of the best prices ever. Delivering a unique 2-in-1 design, this MagSafe-compatible 7.5W charging station also doubles as a power bank. The main MagSafe mount can slide out to deliver 5,000mAh of on-the-go power to your iPhone 14, while a secondary 5W pad below is always available at home for refueling AirPods and the like. Our hands-on review explores all of the perks of that convertible design too.
Alongside the lead deal, today we’re also tracking another highlight on one of the first chances to save on Anker’s new 10,000mAh MagGo MagSafe Power Bank, which drops to $64. Normally fetching $80, today’s offer amounts to the second-best discount yet at 20% off. It comes within $4 of the all-time low set just twice before too.
As one of the latest MagSafe power banks from Anker, the MagGo 10,000mAh offering arrives as its most capable solution for refueling iPhone 14. It sports the expected 7.5W charging rates, as well as a secondary 20W USB-C PD slot for wired devices, all with a kickstand built into the shell for propping up your gear. We also just took a hands-on look at what to expect from the more capable offering and how it stacks up to the rest of Anker’s MagSafe power banks.
Official Apple Watch Alpine Loop band sees spring discount to $83
Just released alongside the new Apple Watch Ultra last fall, the all-new Apple Watch Alpine Loop Band is now seeing a well-timed spring discount. Courtesy of Amazon, you can bring home the unique strap at $83 in the Starlight colorway. Perfect for tagging along on hikes or any other outdoor excursions this spring, today’s offer is down from the usual $99 going rate in order to land at the second-best price to date. The $16 in savings has only been beaten once before when it fell $3 lower earlier in the year. Sporting a unique rugged design that weaves together two layers of woven fabric, the Alpine Loop is designed for Apple Watch Ultra but also works with the larger of Apple’s standard 44 and 45mm wearables. The stitch-free look uses high-strength yarn to deliver the unique top loop look, and a corrosion-resistant titanium G-hook slides into place for securing the band to your wrist.
Belkin Thunderbolt 4 Dock Pro hits $300 low
Amazon now offers one of the best values we’ve seen all year on a Thunderbolt 4 hub. If you’ve been waiting for the right deal to pair that shiny new M2 Pro MacBook Pro with a new workstation upgrade, Amazon is stepping in today to offer the Belkin Thunderbolt 4 Dock Pro for $300. That’s down from the usual $400 going rate to not only save you $100 but also deliver a new all-time low. This clocks in at $16 under our previous mention from the beginning of the year and lands at the lowest price we’ve seen to date. Belkin’s latest Thunderbolt 4 Dock Pro complements your Mac setup, whether you’re looking to expand the I/O of a desktop machine or turn a MacBook into a full workstation. Sporting a 2-in-1 design, there are dual 4K HDMI slots, of which one of them can drive an up-to-8K 60Hz monitor. You’re also looking at Gigabit Ethernet, a front-facing SD card reader, four USB 3.0 slots, and dual Thunderbolt 4 slots. Then there’s 90W power delivery for charging your machine while it drives the hub. Our launch coverage offers a better idea of what to expect.
Twelve South’s new HiRise Pro MacBook stand is a 9to5 favorite
Just after walking away impressed in our hands-on review, Amazon is now offering a chance to save on Twelve South’s new HiRise Pro. This MacBook stand normally sells for $100, but now you can drop the price down to $84. This is one of the very first chances to save across the board, and in particular a new all-time low courtesy of Amazon at $16 off. We last saw it sitting at $88 in a limited-time sale back on April Fools’ Day, which marked it down for the first time.
The HiRise Pro MacBook stand is Twelve South’s latest addition to the lineup and can adjust from 2.5 inches all the way up to elevating your machine 6 inches off the desk, with a tilted design. On top of being able to hold everything from M1 MacBook Airs to 16-inch M2 Pro MacBook Pro models, there’s also an integrated spot in the base that hides below the metal and vegan leather-trimming for putting a MagSafe charger. This helps streamline your workstation with a hidden iPhone 14 charger. Best of all, this is the second chance to save since first hitting the scene earlier this year and is a new all-time low. We further break down what to expect in our hands-on review.
Spring saves take $30 off Eve’s latest Aqua HomeKit faucet with Thread
After first launching back last August, the new Eve Aqua Smart Water Controller is now on sale for one of the very first times. Courtesy of Amazon, the new Thread-enabled model is sitting at $119.96 shipped when clipping the on-page coupon. Down from the usual $150 price tag, you’re looking at $30 in savings as well as one of the first discounts of the year. It’s $10 under our previous mention, a new all-time low, and a well-timed discount with getting your lawn in order on the mind. Packed into a refreshed design, Eve Aqua seeks to automate your sprinkler or outdoor faucet with the help of Siri this spring and beyond. On top of the usual HomeKit integration we see from the brand, there’s also Thread connectivity to complement its Bluetooth capacities. This time around the upgraded build has a brass faucet connector and magnetic valve to improve durability and protect against leaks, all while helping you automate your lawn maintenance system. Go dive into our launch coverage for a closer look at what to expect.
