Deals: M2 iPad Air $100 off, M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard all-time lows, Beats Solo 4 $100 off, more

3 weeks ago 5

Joining today’s worldwide debut of the new M4 iMac, we have a host of fresh price drops on a series of other 2024 Apple releases. Alongside ongoing offers on the new iPad mini 7, Amazon has now launched a wide-ranging sale event on the M2 iPad Air featuring straight up $100 price drops across the most accessible configurations in the lineup. Those offers sit alongside new all-time lows on the M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard, huge $100 price drops on the 2024 Beats Solo 4 headphones, black Apple Watch Ultra 2 deals from $682, charging gear, and more. Head below for a closer look in today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break. 

Score an M2 iPad Air for the same price as a mini 7 – Amazon knocks $100 off all models starting at $499

Apple’s latest M2 iPad Air managed slip by the fall Prime Day without seeing any major price drops, but Amazon is now offering straight up $100 discounts across the most affordable models in the lineup. The M2 Air deals haven’t been nearly as deep as some of the M4 iPad Pro models that have seen $150, $200, and even more in savings since release back in May, so a $100 deal on the more accessible M2 models is actually quite notable. This undercuts the summer Prime Day offer by $50 on most models to deliver the lowest prices we can find starting from $499 shipped – that means you’re getting an 11-inch M2 iPad Air for the same price as the new iPad mini A17 Pro (although they are also seeing some slightly price drops right now).

Black Apple Watch Ultra 2 with black Trail Loop now at $731 (Reg. $799), or open-box Alpine config at $682

After seeing Apple’s new black Ultra 2 drop to the $730 all-time low for Prime Day, Amazon is giving folks another shot today alongside a particularly notable offer at Best Buy. Firstly, Amazon has the black titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2 with the matching Black Trail Loop on sale for $730.89 shipped. Regularly $799, that’s within $0.89 of the all-time low and the best price we can find anywhere in brand new condition right now. Just be sure to head below for a chance to score one for even less. 

If you don’t mind going with an open-box unit, Best Buy’s excellent condition listing with the full 1-year Apple warranty is now down at $681.99 shipped. This is for the black Ultra 2 with the Dark Green Alpine Loop at $117 off the regular price tag. Today’s open-box offer is $35 under our previous mention and the best we have seen on this combo. 

Those who might have their eye on the Natural Titanium color instead will also still find the configuration with the Blue Ocean Band marked down to $680 shipped in brand new condition alongside other band options on sale at $700

First Amazon deal drops Apple’s new 2024 green Trail Loop down to the $86 all-time low

M4 iPad Pro

Apple’s new M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard just hit Amazon all-time low pricing from $232 (Reg. up to $349)

Amazon is now offering the best price ever on the new 2024 13-inch Apple M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard case starting from $231.48 shipped. You’re looking at Apple’s regularly $349 keyboard case seeing what could be described as quite a sizable markdown that delivers up to 34% in savings. The black model isn’t seeing quite as a deep a deal at $287.31 shipped, but we are still talking about new Amazon all-time low pricing on both colorways here.

Folks rocking an 11-inch M4 iPad Pro are also in luck as the black model has now dropped again to sit at a new $252.11 Amazon all-time low, down from the regular $299 list price.  While we have seen the white 11-inch model go for less than this once before today, this is the best price we have seen on the popular black variant. 

Latest Beats Solo 4 with spatial audio, 50-hr. battery return to $100 Prime Day low at 50% off (Reg. $200), more

Amazon has now launched a wide-ranging Beats headphone sale featuring solid price drops across a number of models from Beats Studio Pro and Beats Fit Pro to Studio Buds+, Kim K models, and the 2024 Beats Solo 4. That latter of which released earlier this year at $200 and they are now down $99.99 shipped in various colors. You’re looking at a straight 50% in savings here to match both the lowest price we have tracked and the recent Prime Day offer. 

Back in April at review, we said the “most iconic Beats headphones just got better” and now, fast forward to late October, they are now back at the lowest price we have tracked with a massive 50% price drop. 

How to get a deal on Apple Watch Series 10

NOW EVEN LOWER: Apple Watch Series 10 42mm in Jet Black just dropped again to a new $367 all-time low

We have been tracking some notable deals on the new Apple Watch Series 10 this week, and the 42mm Jet Black just dropped again to a new all-time low. Folks looking to scoop up the larger 46mm model can still do so at the $399 all-time low in various colorways, but the base model 42mm Jet Black variant has now dropped to $367 shipped at Amazon. Regularly $399, this is the very best price we have tracked to date anywhere on what is arguably the most popular colorway of Apple’s latest-generation wearable – it is, in fact, subsequently the lowest price on any Jet Black Apple Watch to date. 

NOW EVEN LOWER: Score Apple’s brand new 2-meter 25W MagSafe Charger at the $38 low

Amazon has now dropped the previous-generation 15W official Apple MagSafe Charger down to the lowest price we have tracked there at $27 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. This one carries a regular price at $39 and is now over 30% off the going rate – there have been a few fleeting price drops elsewhere for less, but this is the Amazon low. While the 1 meter model has jumped up in price now, folks looking to supercharge their wireless charging power for iPhone 16 will find the new 2-meter 25W Apple MagSafe Charger on sale for $38 shipped. That’s 20% off and matching the lowest price we have ever tracked.

iPad mini 7

New iPad mini 7 sees very first cash discount today starting at $484, or from $239 with trade-in

While we saw one configuration drop below MSRP yesterday, the entry-level 128GB configurations of Apple’s brand new iPad mini 7 are now seeing their very first price drops at Amazon. As per usual, these early deals on the brand new Apple release aren’t particularly deep, but you can land any color right now at $484 shipped – the lowest price we have tracked to date outside of the Best Buy trade-in values that can net you one for $239 with a mini 6 flip. 

All three storage configurations in all four colors are now seeing light markdowns at Amazon that deliver the best cash discounts to date:

  • iPad mini A17 Pro 128GB $484 
  • iPad mini A17 Pro 256GB $589 
  • iPad mini A17 Pro 256GB $779 

Amazon clears out iPad mini 6 with solid $149 price drops and deals starting from $350

Latest Apple M3 MacBook Air gets in on the deals today from $850 ($249 off, within $1 of all-time low)

Just after seeing a new all-time low land on the previous-generation M2 MacBook Air, Amazon has now decided to get busy with the latest model. The regularly $1,099 entry-level M3 MacBook Air in select colors now has an on-page coupon to drop the already marked down list price to $849.99 shipped. That’s $249 off the going rate and within $1 of the lowest we have tracked on these machines. This deal was one of the major highlights of the summer Prime Day event and subsequent back to school sales, but now’s your chance to jump in.

Apple’s M2 MacBook Air just hit its best Amazon price ever in new condition at $700 (Orig. $1,099)

This one might not last long folks, but Amazon just served up a sizable $149 on-page coupon on Apple’s M2 MacBook Air. On top of already being marked down, the regularly $999 configuration is now selling for $699.99 shipped brand new. This one still typically sells for $999 at places like Best Buy (it was originally $1,099 at release) but it is often on sale for $849 or $899. We recently saw it selling for $749 shipped via Amazon and other retailers, but today’s deal is $49 less and marks the lowest price we have tracked for it in brand new condition at Amazon. 

For further comparison, we have never seen the latest base model M3 MacBook Air sell for less than $849 shipped – it is currently selling for $899, or $200 off the regular $1,099 price tag.
