Amazon has begun rolling out discounts on a range of Apple products, offering early savings ahead of the official kickoff of its Prime Big Deal Days sale. While the event is set to officially begin on October 6, customers can already find reduced prices on popular items, with some deals matching or exceeding previous lowest-ever pricing. These early discounts do not require a Prime membership to access.
Among the featured deals are the latest AirPods Pro 3, which are available for $179, marking a $80 reduction from their manufacturer's suggested retail price. This represents the lowest price point for these earbuds since their release last year, noted for their effective noise cancellation, rich sound, and improved fit.
The Apple Watch Series 12 also sees a $50 discount, bringing its price down. This model boasts enhanced heart rate sensing capabilities and integrates AI-powered Siri features, including on-the-fly transcription and daily summaries.
For those seeking a more budget-friendly smartwatch option, the Apple Watch SE 3 is also discounted by $50, available for $199 instead of its usual $249. This entry-level model provides essential features such as workout tracking and sleep analysis.
Significant savings are also available on Apple's Mac lineup. The M5 chip-equipped MacBook Air 13-inch laptop is $200 off, returning it to its previous price point before a recent increase. This deal offers a substantial saving on the current year's model.
Additionally, the iPad mini is available with a $100 discount. This compact tablet is recognized for its convenient form factor and offers a more affordable alternative for those interested in similar screen real estate to larger, more expensive devices.
For users who prefer over-ear headphones, the AirPods Max 2 are included in the sale with a $120 reduction, representing a 21% discount. These headphones are highlighted for their comfort and robust noise-cancellation features.
Desktop users can also benefit from a $120 discount on the latest Mac Mini, equipped with an M6 chip. This compact desktop computer offers considerable power while maintaining a small physical footprint on a desk.
