AirPods Pro 3, MacBook Air, MacBook Neo, 9to5Mac and more

For today 9to5Toys Lunch break The title is one of the best prices so far live on AirPods Pro 3 down $200 alongside the return of Apple’s 24GB M4 MacBook Air models for $300 off. We also saw Best Buy double down on FREE $50 credits on new MacBook Neo purchases for members, as well as Apple’s most affordable current-generation iPad for $299 and the M3 iPad Air models $200 off actual list prices. Head below for a closer look.

Amazon is now offering its best price on one of, if not the, best wireless earbuds in the world – AirPods Pro 3 down $199.99 shipped.
Normally $249, you’re looking at about $50 off Apple’s in-ear headphones here. This deal brings 20% savings on the newly released AirPods Pro 3 that were released alongside the iPhone 17 lineup, Apple Watch Ultra 3, and Series 11 wearables last September.
While we’re still a week out from the start of Amazon’s 2026 Big Spring Sale, deals are starting to go live and this could be one of them. Yes, there’s a chance we’ll see them go down next week, but it’s unlikely and even if they do, it won’t happen.
Amazon has brought the lowest price of $ 199 on the new AirPods Pro 3 before Christmas 2025 after offering them for $ 229 on Black Friday. It made a valiant, if extremely short-lived, attempt to match Verizon’s $185 store low since then, but almost no one had a chance to get that deal and we have a hard time believing they’ll drop any lower than that next week.
Chances are the deal we have right now is the Big Spring price, though it wouldn’t be surprising to see Amazon drop the price another $1 to $199. We’ll never know for sure, but the only time they sold for less than $199 was when Verizon forced their hand, and we don’t know when that might happen again.

Now live again: Apple’s $300 24GB M4 MacBook Air model slashed from list price at Amazon (More colors)
As we have explained, Amazon is now offering the first cash discounts on the new M5 MacBook Air $50 off almost every setup it sells. You’ll find details on those below, but Amazon is also now on sale $300 off some more M4 MacBook Air configurations and colors for people looking to get a deep discount on the 2025 model.
Amazon is now offering the 15-inch M4 MacBook Air with 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD from. $1,299 shipped. You’ll find this price live on the Sky Blue model while the Silver and Starlight variants sell for just $1 more.
You’re looking at what was a regular $1,599 configuration before Apple introduced the new M5 model last week. Today’s deal is $300 off and it’s the lowest price we’ve ever seen on Amazon – before the M5’s launch this device had never sold for less than $1,349 on Amazon.
Now Apple has upped the RAM and storage on the new M5 model, leaving the standard list price at $1,499 for the new 24GB/512GB, but the M4 is still $200 less than that. Also, there are some cash deals now sitting across the M5 lineup, but it’ll be a while before you see them as low as the M4 is right now — you’ll also want to remember that the only 24GB that Amazon sells has 1TB of storage with a list price of $1,650, and that that won’t drop until $1,299.

- 13-inch M5 MacBook Air 16GB/1TB $1,249 (Reg. $1,299)

Best Buy is doubling down with a FREE $50 credit on a new MacBook Neo purchase for members
While we’re holding some easy open-box discounts on the new MacBook Neo that sold out quickly, the only real deals on Apple’s new game-changing laptop came in the form of Best Buy member offers. During the pre-order phase and after it included a FREE $25 store credit, but now it has doubled and is now offering. FREE $50 credits for purchases.
Amazon is still charging $599 for the full model and $699 for the new 256GB MacBook Neo and the higher-end 512GB model with Touch ID. A few configurations have been released for a few bucks, but nothing particularly compelling (at least not more than the new MacBook at $599 already, anyway).
On top of Best Buy, however, it’s still enticing its My Best Buy Plus and Total members with what’s arguably the best out of the limited EDU discount, as it will now include a FREE $50 store credit with the purchase. Previously only $25 for pre-orders, now we’re offering a double credit:
While I’ve never really liked the idea of paying these merchant membership fees every month, this Best Buy Plus status has proven its worth over the past year or two. There have been very notable benefits with bonus store credit and additional discounts on brand new Apple releases, bonus credit on new TV purchases, and, now, the best deal on a new Apple product release in some time.

Apple’s most affordable current-generation iPad is back for $299
We’re tracking a number of iPad deals this week, including the new M4 iPad Air $200 off M3 Air models, to $100 price drops on iPad mini, and more. But now we’re tracking down the most affordable current-generation iPad you can buy again $299 – Amazon has all four colors on sale.
Amazon is now offering the cheapest iPad 11 on the market $299 shipped and all four colors are now live and in stock at a reduced price again.
This model carries a list price of $350 and is now back for the best price of the year on Amazon.
We’ve seen it drop a touch as low as $275 in the Black Friday range last year, but anything under $299 has been pretty rare. We could see it drop another $20 or $25 at the big sales events of 2026, but anything below $299 is unlikely.




Today’s services and charging deals:

Amazon is offering Titanium Apple Watch Series 10 Cell models for $300 off, up from $199
While the Series 11 deals continue on $100+ discount with deals starting from $299deep price drops on Apple Watch Series 10 models previously found to be popular options here and Amazon are now bringing GPS + Cell models up to now. $300 off actual prices with deals starting from $199. Details below.
As you can see on this special landing page and in the list below there are Apple Watch Series 10 models that are holding deep discounts right now on Amazon. These are probably best for those looking to get a deal on the high-end Titanium case options with GPS + Cell setup, but you’ll also find an affordable regular model starting at $199 right now. While we’ve seen most of these models naturally sell for less than their sticker prices before the Series 11 drops, there are several Amazons that remain low up for grabs right now.
The new Series 11 models that went live last September don’t deal anywhere near this deep yet, and probably won’t until the next generation, but there’s a $100 price drop on a bunch of configurations right now:




This M5 MacBook Pro is almost $300 less than the most affordable model Apple sells now
The new M5 Pro MacBook Pro models are still seeing deals launch this week, but we wanted to highlight this deal on the least expensive M5 MacBook Pro you can buy – the 512GB variant under. $1,399.99 shipped. This is about $300 less than the least expensive M5 MacBook Pro that Apple sells now.
Amazon is currently offering the M5 MacBook Pro with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB internal SSD at the bottom $1,399.99 shipped.
This model launched at $1,599, and is now almost $200 less than that. But now that Apple has ended the last 512GB tier for good, this is actually about $300 less than the lowest-priced model on the list.
All that said, considering that Apple is now starting the lineup with 16GB/1TB at $1,699, and you can get this model at $1,499.99 right now with Amazon, the actual normal price for the 512GB model is like $1,499 – Apple usually charges $200 for the storage upgrade.
But anyway, this 512GB model is not available from Apple and there is no word on how long it will be on sale (the silver model is already sold out on Amazon). If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to protect the power of the M5, this is a great deal (on the Mac side of things).
