Apple AirPods are on sale at Amazon for Prime Day
Amazon's a good bet for finding everyday savings on Apple AirPods. The best deals we spotted were on two of the line's latest iterations, the Apple AirPods Pro and the Apple AirPods Max, but you'll even save money on a set of second-generation Apple AirPods.
Apple AirPods (2nd generation): $100
Just about anyone will love these budget-minded Apple AirPods. They're not the latest model, but they're still one of the most sought-after earbud models on the market.
Retailing for $159 at Apple, they're on sale at Amazon right now for $100. These AirPods boast more than 24 hours total listening time (with the wireless charging case), a foolproof, one-tap setup for Apple device owners and a low-latency wireless connection (for full immersion when consuming movies and music).
Apple AirPods (2nd generation), $100 (reduced from $159)
Apple AirPods with MagSafe case (3rd generation)
The latest generation of Apple AirPods are a nice upgrade over the second-generation model. They support 3D spatial audio with dynamic head tracking. You get more listening time, too -- up to 30 hours with the included MagSafe charging case.
Apple AirPods (3rd generation), $179
Apple AirPods Pro: $170
Upgrade your old AirPods to the Apple AirPods Pro. Compared to older models, these AirPods fit active noise cancelation technology, water resistance and hearing health tracking in a more-compact, better-fitting design. They're also lauded for their great sound quality.
Now at $200, the Apple AirPods Pro are a great deal for those with some flexibility in their budget.
Apple AirPods Pro, $170 (reduced from $249)
Apple AirPods Max: $449
Buy the sweet, immersive Apple AirPods Max direct from Apple, and you'll pay $549; buy the wireless, over-the-ear headphones via Amazon, and you'll pay $449.
Apple AirPods Max, $449 and up (regularly $549)
The best Apple MacBooks deals at Amazon
The Apple MacBook Air is Apple's most basic, most affordable laptop. But in Apple's world, of course, affordable doesn't mean cheap. The "cheapest" Apple MacBook Air, for instance, runs about $1,000. The good news is, Amazon regularly has big deals on the Apple MacBook Air -- and on brand-new laptops, not just refurbished ones (though, yes, you can definitely get deals on refurbished ones, too).
13" Apple MacBook Air, 8GB RAM, 256GB storage: $779
This light, thin Apple MacBook Air with a 13.3-inch screen packs a punch thanks to its Apple M1 chip. It boasts 8GB of memory and 256GB of storage, and delivers up to 18 hours of battery life. Listed at $999 on Apple, you can get it for $779 at Amazon.
