The Best Prime Day Deals on Apple Devices
Apple makes some expensive technology, so it makes sense to save money whenever possible. While the company’s refurbished store is always a great place to start shopping, you might prefer a brand new Apple device. Amazon can help you with that: The online retailer has some great deals on Apple Watch, iPad, and AirPods for Prime Day 2023, so you can grab some new products while keeping a little extra money in your wallet.
Like every year, Prime Day 2023 lasts two days (July 11 and 12). If you’re interested, don’t forget to pull the trigger before the items disappear from stock.
Apple Watch
If you’ve been waiting to buy a new Apple Watch until a good deal was struck, this could be your moment. On Amazon, all Apple Watch Series 8 models are on sale for $100 off. Whether you’re interested in 41mm or 45mm, a cellular or GPS-only model, aluminum or stainless steel, each iteration of the Series 8 will cost $100 less.
The biggest proportional savings will be for the smaller 41mm GPS-only Series 8, which will drop from $399 to $299.
- Apple Watch Series 8 41mm GPS : $279.99 (was $399)
- Apple Watch Series 8 45mm GPS : $309.99 (was $429)
- Apple Watch Series 8 41mm Honeycomb (Aluminum) : $379.99 (was $499)
- Apple Watch Series 8 45mm Honeycomb (Aluminum) : $409.99 (was $529)
- Apple Watch Series 8 41mm Cellular (Stainless Steel) : $579.99 (was $699)
- Apple Watch Series 8 45mm Cellular (Stainless Steel) : $629.99 (was $749)
Amazon also has deals on the 2nd generation Apple Watch SE, though not as great. You can buy this watch for $50 off whether you choose GPS or Cellular models. The good news is that this watch is cheaper than the Series 8 as it has slightly smaller displays, doesn’t have an Always-On display, doesn’t have ECG and blood oxygen monitors, doesn’t have a U1 chip for enhanced Find My capabilities, and can. t fast charging. Otherwise, it’s the same watch, so it’s extremely functional at a lower price:
- Apple Watch SE 40mm GPS : $199.99 (was $249)
- Apple Watch SE 44mm GPS : $229.99 (was $279)
- Apple Watch SE 40mm Cellular : $249.99 (was $299)
- Apple Watch SE 44mm Cellular : $279.99 (was $329)
ipad
Amazon is not offering any Pro deals on the iPad this year, nor is the Air on sale. However, there are still some solid savings here on the iPad. You can get the 64GB iPad 10, the latest generation of the standard iPad, at $70 off, and the 256GB at $80 off (whether you choose the cellular or Wi-Fi-only models). iPad 10 features a modern form factor with a 10.9-inch edge-to-edge display, efficient A14 Bionic chip, and USB-C port, making it a modern iPad at a more reasonable price:
- iPad 10 (64GB ): $379.99 (was $449)
- iPad 10 (256GB) : $529.99 (was $599)
- iPad 10 (256GB Cellular) : $679.99 (was $749)
Amazon also has discounts on the previous generation iPad 9. Despite having an old-school form factor, a lower quality display, and a slower chip, the iPad 9 is still a great tablet in 2023. You won’t find a better tablet for $249 (or even $379 if you want more storage):
- iPad 9 (64GB) : $249.99 (was $329)
- iPad 9 (256GB) : $389.99 (was $479)
- iPad 9 (64GB Cellular) : $379.99 (was $449)
- iPad 9 (256GB Cellular) : $519.99 (was $609)
If you’re looking for something smaller, the iPad mini 6 is also on sale. It’s actually the most powerful iPad ever with its A15 Bionic processor and has a better display than an iPad 9 or 10, albeit taking up less space. The problem is that it’s usually a bit pricey, starting at $499 for 64GB, so offers like this are more than welcome:
- iPad mini 6 (64GB) : $379.99 (was $499)
- iPad mini 6 (256GB) : $529.99 (was $649)
- iPad mini 6 (64GB Cellular) : $529.99 (was $649)
- iPad mini 6 (256GB Cellular) : $679.99 (was $799)
AirPods
Prime Day has discounts on second and third generation AirPods from Apple. This means you can choose between the classic AirPods design or, for an extra $60, you can get the company’s latest iteration. If you want features like Spatial Audio, sweat and water resistance, improved audio and microphone quality, more touch controls and longer battery life, go for the 3rd generation. However, the biggest discount is on the 2nd generation, making them the most affordable way to break into Apple’s wireless earbuds ecosystem:
- AirPods (2nd generation) : $89.99 (was $129)
- AirPods (3rd generation) : $139.99 (was $169)
