Best Apple Device Deals

The Apple AirPods Pro 3 are the best wireless earbuds for iPhone users. They fall to this price quite frequently, but WIRED readers continually purchase them, and this deal is still better than paying full price. They have detailed sound, great noise cancellation and transparency modes, a built-in heart rate sensor, and live translation.

The AirPods Max 2 are sleek, stylish, and on sale for a match of the second-best deal we've seen. They've dropped to $399 a couple of times, but this deal is still worth considering if these are the headphones you want. The battery life could be better, and we wish there were custom EQ options, but we like them overall.

The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 are some of our favorite workout earbuds thanks to their comfortable fit, appealing style, and punchy sound. They’ll stay put even if you’re sweaty, and the transparency mode and noise cancellation mean you can hear exactly as much of your surroundings as you want to.

The MacBook Air remains the best laptop we’d recommend for most people. It strikes a great balance of features, power, and price, offering enough performance for both work and play. The portable, sleek design and excellent battery life make it an easy recommendation for just about anybody. And in terms of price, this is the best deal we’ve seen on the M5 MacBook Air since June.

The standard 11-inch iPad avoided a price hike this year and remains a great tablet for families. It’s perfect for kicking back with a movie, game, or book, and it can be relied upon to keep the kids amused.

The new M6 Mac Mini is very fast and can easily serve as a local, agentic AI machine. But it also has a more mainstream appeal as a starter computer, complete with 16 GB of RAM, the powerful M6 chip, and 512 GB of storage. Amazon has the best deal on the very latest model, bringing the price to a new low since its release. The Mac Studio is also on sale, if you really want to dive in deep on running local AI models.

These are the best trackers for folks with an iPhone, and you can use them to keep tabs on your keys, travel luggage, bike, or whatever else you worry might go missing. The location of each AirTag is marked clearly in the Find My app. They also make great stocking stuffers.

The GPS-only version of this Apple Watch is a very solid deal if you don't need cellular connectivity or the large band. The Apple Watch SE is our top budget-friendly pick; it costs less than the higher-end models but leaves out some of their features. I'm surprised that every version isn't discounted, but we hope to see other configurations drop in price over the event.

Unlike the Magic Mouse, Apple's Magic Keyboard is a beloved Mac accessory. Mechanical switch enthusiasts won't appreciate the shallow travel, but the tick-tack typing of the keyboard makes it a fast and comfortable keyboard to type on. And importantly, it gives you the macOS layout right out of the box. The non-Touch ID model is on sale for Prime Day, which makes it $70 cheaper than the version with a fingerprint reader.

Best MagSafe and Accessory Deals

As Apple purges the ports on its MacBooks, you might want to plug in a handy USB hub. This Plugable device is our favorite because it offers 140 watts of power delivery, every port you need, including 10-Gbps USB-C, and can support a secondary screen, up to 4K resolution at 60 Hz. It also boasts a robust metal chassis with clearly labeled ports.

I loved the Backbone One when I reviewed it, and I still think it’s the best mobile gaming controller. It makes it very easy to play games on my iPhone for hours at a time. I especially love it for traveling, whether on a plane or to my parents’ house for the holidays. It has a solid app and excellent controls, plus pass-through charging. This price is close to the best we’ve seen.

This slots into the bottom of your iPhone via the rotating USB-C connector and provides enough power to charge it up at least once. It’s a good alternative to a MagSafe power bank if you want something faster and more efficient than wireless charging.

The best MagSafe power bank has a built-in kickstand and can charge your phone wirelessly or via the included USB-C cable. The capacity isn’t massive, but it’ll still fully charge most phones at least once. The display lets you know how much juice is left at a quick glance.

Top pick in our guide to the best Apple 3-in-1 wireless chargers, this classy-looking tree has a lovely weighted base and spots to charge your iPhone (with support for StandBy mode), Apple Watch, and any AirPods with a wireless charging case.

This is the best Apple 3-in-1 travel charger because it is so compact when folded. It can charge your iPhone or Qi2-certified phone at up to 15 watts on a magnetic pad that can adjust to your preferred angle. A second pad charges AirPods or other wireless earbuds, and there is a fold-out Apple Watch charger.

This hard-wearing, fast-charging pick from the best USB-C cables can deliver 240 watts to charge any Apple gadget. It also has a tough, braided nylon exterior made from 100 percent recycled plastic, and comes with a lifetime warranty.

This neat little Apple 3-in-1 charger has space for your Apple Watch, AirPods, and iPhone (in any orientation, including StandBy mode). It also comes with a wall adapter, travel adapters, and a cable, all of which are unfortunately rare inclusions in this product space.

One of our favorite MagSafe wallets, the stylish Smartish Side Hustle clings to your iPhone magnetically and has a cutaway to make it easy to pop out your cards, saving time at the register. This price is the lowest we’ve seen.

I especially like the version of this MagSafe wallet that has Find My compatibility, but the basic version is good as well. Nearly every iteration is on sale. The wallet has space for two cards comfortably and can double as a kickstand or tripod for your daily fit checks.

Best Apple Case and Watch Band Deals

Bandolier’s elegant, classy products feel a lot more luxurious than most iPhone accessories. This case turns your iPhone 17 into a crossbody device, and I especially like it for dinner or shows when I don’t want to set my phone down, or my outfit doesn’t have pockets. My Bandolier accessories show no sign of wear after three months of continuous use.

Our favorite silicone Apple Watch band has a pebbled leather look, but it’s softer, and it’s waterproof. Durable enough for workouts and water sports, but also smart enough for the office, the two-tone design is reversible.
