Mac and MacBook deals

Why we like it

Check out Mashable’s official review of the 2021 MacBook Pro.

This is not an everyday laptop, so it doesn’t come at an everyday price — but it is down to the lowest price we’ve ever seen it. For multitaskers who want room-filling speakers, a battery life that’s built to last, and the workflow that only a 16-inch Liquid Retina XDR display can provide, the 2021 MacBook Pro is the way to go.

iPad deals

Why we like it

$30 off might not seem like a lot. But consider that this iPad rarely drops below $309, is within $10 of its lowest price ever, and is the best tablet for most people. If you won’t be using your iPad for heavy-duty tasks like video editing or photo rendering, this could be the deal for you — snag it from Amazon or Walmart just in time for back to school season.

Check out Mashable’s official review of the iPhone 13 Mini.

Like most phone deals on this list, having a decent trade-in is essential to scoring the most bang for your buck. So why the iPhone 13 Mini? Well, you likely won’t need a brand new phone to get the price tag as close to $0 as possible, you’re not trading-in for an outdated model, and you get at least 128GB of storage, nice battery life, and cinematic mode without the huge price tag. You can also grab this deal at AT&T.

Apple Watch deals

Why we like it

The Series 7 is just $20 above the historic low price we saw it hit on Prime Day, at both Amazon and Walmart. Apple’s latest smartwatch, with its blood oxygen and ECG sensors, support for bike workouts, and ample screen space, is by far the best the brand has to offer.

Check out Mashable’s official review of the AirPods Max.

Are the only over-the-ear AirPods ridiculously expensive? Yes. But do they offer excellent audio quality, active noise cancellation, and 20 hours of battery life all in one stylish package? Also yes. It’s not the lowest price we’ve seen these headphones hit, but with all the colors at $70 off, it’s still a decent deal that allows for some choice.
