You don’t have to be a diehard Apple fan to know that deals from the brand don’t come around all that often. While it’s still possible to find some Apple sales throughout the year, your best bet for scoring the biggest savings is striking when the shopping holiday iron is hot.
Usually, that would be in July for Amazon Prime Day or in November for Cyber Week, but this year, Amazon threw us a curve ball — the Prime Early Access Sale. The PEAS is a two-day event running from Oct. 11 to Oct. 12, bringing exclusive savings for Prime members. If you have a Prime account, it’s essentially a second Prime Day, and a chance to snag discounted Apple tech before the holiday rush kicks into high gear.
Now that the sale has officially started, the deals are rolling in, with plenty of new all-time lows from Amazon and other retailers. So you don’t have to sift through them on your own, we’ve rounded up the deals that are actually noteworthy (i.e. the iPads and MacBooks that have been sitting at the same « sale » price for the past four months won’t be on this list). Check back often, as we’ll be keeping track as pricing and availability change, all the way through the event.
We’re updating this page constantly, so check back often. All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a strikeout were either sold out or no longer available at their sale price when we last looked. Anything marked with a 🔥 has dropped to an all-time low price.

Why we like it
Check out our full review on the M2 MacBook Air.
The latest MacBook Air is a redesign done right, with a larger screen, impressive power thanks to the M2 chip, and solid battery life. If you’ve been waiting to upgrade, the Air is definitely worth a second look, and it’s at a record-low price. If you don’t need the latest processor, the M1 Air is also at a killer all-time low price.

iPad deals
Why we like it
We consider the standard iPad the best iPad for most people, and at $269 it’s by far at its best price ever (its previous all-time low was $279). With a decent amount of storage, a nice 10.2-inch display, and an A13 Bionic chip, this iPad will carry you through notetaking and YouTube binges with ease. It is worth noting that there is speculation Apple will announce the iPad 10 soon, so if you’re not super into the dated design, you might want to hold enough, but $270 for an iPad is awfully hard to beat.

AirPods deals
Why we like it
Check out our full review on the AirPods Pro 2.
Finally, the AirPods Pro got an update, and it was worth the wait. With improved active noise cancellation (on what was already impressive ANC on the first gen), and improved battery life, these are some of the best, if not the best, headphones Apple has to offer. And they just hit an all-time low price.
