From there, we move over to one of the lowest prices we have tracked yet on Apple Pencil (USB-C) as well as the Belkin BoostCharge Pro Apple Watch Charger and plenty of other power gear to keep you juiced up for less. Head below for a closer look.
Best Back to School Apple deals – MacBook Air $799, iPads from $300, AirPods, more from $23
Apple refurb 24-inch M3 iMac with the 10-core GPU now nearly $500 off starting from $1,000
Just about all Macs in the lineup are set to receive the M4 treatment this fall, if not sometime in early 2025, but Woot is stepping in with a deep refurbished deal on the the latest 24-inch M3 iMac today at $999.99 Prime shipped. A $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise. This is the 256GB model with the 10-core GPU upgrade that regularly fetches $1,499 brand new and is currently on sale at $1,299 from Amazon – you’re saving $499 with today’s Woot deal. Nice. But even if you compare today’s deal to the base model 256GB/8-core GPU, this is still $300 under the new price and $149 under Amazon’s current sale listing. Ships with a 90-day Woot warranty.
Save up to $600 on Apple’s M2 iPad Pro: 512GB Wi-FI + Cell at $899 ($800 less than the same M4 model)
We have been watching the M4 iPad Pro listings like a hawk for the last few months to ensure the best possible prices are front and center for folks on Apple’s latest and greatest, but Best Buy is also now offering hundreds in savings on the previous-generation M2 iPad Pro models as well. One notable option we spotted was on the 11-inch M2 iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular model with 512GB of storage down at $899 shipped. You’re looking at regularly $1,299 iPad seeing a deep $400 price drop here. It’s clearly no M4 iPad Pro, but it is also drastically less pricey – a 512GB Wi-Fi + Cell M4 carries a $1,699 MSRP and will cost you $1,574 on sale at Amazon right now.
- 12.9-inch M2 iPad Pro 1TB $1,299 (Reg. $1,799)
- 12.9-inch M2 iPad Pro 2TB $1,699 (Reg. $2,199)

Score the current Apple Pencil (USB-C) for iPad 10, M2 iPad Air, M4 models, more from $58 today
Amazon has once again dropped the lowest-price, current-generation Apple Pencil back down to the $69 shipped low. Regularly $79, Apple Pencil (USB-C) is the least pricey point of entry into the Apple stylus lineup and it has now returned to its lowest price yet on Amazon. Just keep in mind, we also just spotted the “excellent condition open-box” listing at Best Buy today marked down to $57.99 shipped. The open-box option ships with the same 1-year warranty and “includes all original parts, packaging and accessories (or suitable replacement).”
Here’s how discounted pricing works out across the lineup right now:

Belkin BoostCharge Apple Watch Charger in black or white back to Amazon 2024 low at $45 (25% off)
Amazon is now offering the Belkin BoostCharge Pro Apple Watch Charger starting from $44.99 shipped in black and white. Regularly $60 and currently fetching as much directly from Belkin (unless you buy two of them), this is a solid 25% in savings and the best price we can find. Today’s deal is a few bucks under our previous and lands on par with the lowest we have tracked on Amazon across 2024. While the heads-up 3-in-1 tree-style MagSafe stations remain a popular solution, if you’re looking for a simple, clean, and dedicated charger for your Apple wearable, this is a solid option from a brand we have featured around here for years.

M3 MacBook Air deals are flying right now, but here’s the lowest price on a 16GB model at $1,149
Deals on the M3 MacBook Air roll on with the best prices we have tracked across the lineup, starting from the 8GB 13-inch right through to the higher-end 15-inch models. But the offer we spotted today from B&H is delivering the lowest price of entry into the M3 models with 16GB of RAM. While Amazon is offering the 13-inch configuration with 16GB of RAM and the 512GB SSD down at $1,250, or $150 off the going rate, over at B&H you can score this machine with a 256GB SSD down at $1,149 shipped. That’s also $150 off the $1,299 list price and the lowest point of entry for a 16GB machine.

Sony’s beloved XM4 ANC Headphones just fell back to the $198 Prime Day low (Reg. $348)
We saw some seriously fantastic price drops on headphones for Prime Day, and now, joining the $149 discount on Apple’s AirPods Max, arguably the best one is back. Amazon is now offering the Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones at $198 shipped. They are indeed the previous-generation set, but they are also easily among the most beloved headphones on the internet. Regularly $348, this is a massive $150 price drop landing on par with the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon yet. They just about never drop below $228 outside of extremely fleeting offers at around $208 at places like Adorama, and even those offers don’t stick around for very long. Today’s deal is only the second-time we have seen this set at the lowest price of the year on Amazon.
