11 best Apple deals at Best Buy
Apple AirPods (3rd Generation):was $169.99 now$139.99 at Best BuyThe latest set of Apple deals at Best Buy has the AirPods 3 discounted to $139.99 – that equals the cheapest price ever. These premium earbuds offer long battery life and convenient wireless charging thanks to the MagSafe case that provides more than 30 hours of total listening time (or 6 hours on one charge). These are excellent everyday buds for iPhone users with good audio performance, easy connectivity and a slick design, according to ourApple AirPods 3 review.
Apple AirPods (2nd Generation):was $129.99 now$89.99 at Best BuyThe older 2nd generation Apple AirPods are also on sale right now at Best Buy if you want to spend a little less, but they have been $10 cheaper than this in previous sales. Also, compared to the latest model, you miss out on wireless charging support and have to compromise with a shorter battery life of up to 5 hours (24 hours total with the charging case). We’d suggest paying the extra to get the newest ones, but can’t deny this is good value for a pair of Apple’s premium earbuds.
Apple AirPods Pro 2:was $249.99 now$189.99 at Best BuyThis is a great low price for the latest generation Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C support – but they have been $10 cheaper earlier this year. As well as that more universal connection option, Apple’s newest premium earbuds come with sought-after improvements to audio quality and noise cancellation. In ourAirPods Pro 2 review, we said that these upgrades ensured they were a big step up compared to the originals and helped them truly compete with other high-end buds.
Apple Watch Series 9:was $399 now$299 at Best BuyThe Apple Watch 9 is down to its previous record-low price in this weekend’s Best Buy sale. We discovered that it is more powerful than ever in ourApple Watch 9 reviewthanks to the S9 SiP chip, which delivers a brighter display and 18 hours of battery life. You also get advanced health and safety features, GPS technology, and a new double-tap feature that allows you to use your Apple Watch without touching the display.
Apple Watch SE 2 (GPS, 44mm):was $299 now$199 at Best BuyAt under $200, this is a great price for Apple’s entry-level and budget-friendly smartwatch, although it is currentlydown to $189 at Amazon. We said in ourApple Watch SE 2 reviewthat it’s a respectable mid-range smartwatch boasting good performance, impressive battery life, and a helpful suite of features. Just note that it lacks the temperature sensor and ECG sensor found in higher-end options like the Apple Watch 9.
iPad 10.2 (2021):was $329.99 now$249 at Best BuyThe iPad 10.2 has been available at this record-low price for a few months now but it remains a great deal. This Apple tablet may be slightly older tech, but the 10.2-inch Retina display and A13 Bionic chip ensure excellent picture quality and superior performance to this day. If you need an entry-level slate for web browsing, streaming videos, light admin work or playing basic games then this can do it all without issue. Right now, when it comes to powerful and affordable tablets that offer excellent value for money, nothing else can beat the Apple iPad 10.2 at this price.
iPad Air (M1, 2022):was $599 now$399 at Best BuyBest Buy has the previous-generation iPad Air available for a record-low price right now. As we said in our four-stariPad Air (2022) review, this model neatly sits in the middle ground between power and affordability while still offering many of the same features and capabilities as the more expensive iPad Pro. With an attractive 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display and M1 chip inside you get excellent picture quality plus fast performance. Even though there’s a new model available, this discount makes it a great affordable tablet for creative tasks, gaming, and general everyday use.
Apple iPad mini (2021):was $499 now$399.99 at Best BuyThis discount brings the most recent iPad mini to within $20 of the record-low we saw in July last year. The much-improved 8.3-inch tablet delivers a similar performance to the last-generation iPad Air but in a much smaller form. There are also significant upgrades to the processing chip and cameras, as well as all-day battery life that make it a solid option for those that need a portable everyday tablet.
MacBook Air 13-inch (M2, 2022):was $1,099 now$849 at Best BuyBest Buy has a decent $150 discount on the MacBook Air M2 this weekend - just be aware that it’s currently anextra $20 cheaper at Amazon. Even though the newer M3 model is now available this is still up there as one of the best laptops you can buy according to ourMacBook Air M2 review. We were particularly impressed with the stylish design, clear display, impressive performance, and long 18-hour battery life. For those needing a premium powerhouse for creative apps such as photo editing, video editing and more intense workloads, it’s a smart investment at this price.
MacBook Air 13-inch (M3, 2024):was $1,099 now$999 at Best BuyThe latest MacBook Air is down to $999 at Best Buy – just $10 more than the record-low. The brand-new model was released earlier this year and runs on the powerful M3 chipset, making it a great buy for creatives and anyone after a high-end device. Our five-starMacBook Air 13-inch M3 reviewpraised its excellent performance, lengthy 18 hours of battery life and slick fan-less design. We think it’s thebest laptopyou can buy right now if you’ve got a decent budget for a portable and powerful machine.
