Amazon Prime Day is live now through June 26, and this year's sale is an especially important one for Apple users: Apple products are about to get price hikes because of the global RAM shortage. With that in mind, the Mashable Shopping team is monitoring the best Prime Day Apple deals extra-closely to flag any worthwhile discounts on Apple Watches, AirPods, iPads, and MacBooks.

So far, there are several notable Apple deals. The top offers from the first 12 hours of Prime Day include some record-low prices on the AirPods Max 2, the Apple Watch Series 11, the M4 iPad Air, and the M3 MacBook Air. (Pro tip: Other past-gen models that are still in stock are also getting deep discounts.)

Most other Apple products are still anywhere from $9 to $100 away from their all-time lows. We're still holding out hope for further price drops on AirPods and the latest M5 MacBook laptops. So, if you're unbothered by the possibility of these products selling out, it's worth waiting a few more days to see if they get even cheaper. Amazon has been known to improve its Apple deals midway through Prime Day.

Over the next few days, we'll continue to update this page with the best Prime Day Apple deals multiple times a day. For what it's worth, we're also checking prices at other major retailers like Best Buy and Walmart to make sure you're truly getting the lowest prices available on all things Apple. If they manage to beat one of Amazon's deals, we'll note that and link to the competition.

Note: Products marked with a 🔥 are at their lowest-ever price.

Best Prime Day AirPods deal

Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirPods Max 2 🔥 $399 at Amazon
$549 Save $150   Get Deal

Apple's stylish over-ear headphones were updated in April with the H2 chip, which brings better noise cancellation and support for software features like Adaptive Audio, Conversation Awareness, and Live Translation. This Prime Day, Amazon has them marked down to just $399 in all five colors — that's a 27% savings and their lowest price ever (by a lot). This is a shockingly good deal, considering the original AirPods Max took several years to hit the same price. Only Walmart's managed to match it so far.

The Apple Watch Series 11 has a new record-low price for Prime Day. Amazon marked it down to just $279, which is 30% off its usual $399 MSRP. (It was $20 more expensive during Amazon's Big Spring Sale a couple of months ago.) Apple's latest flagship wearable supports features like hypertension notifications and Sleep Score. Compared to its predecessor, it has a more scratch-resistant display and a longer battery life. Choose from four different case and band combinations, including one with the new space gray finish.

Best Prime Day iPad deal

$599 Save $80   Get Deal

The M4 iPad Air is our favorite Apple tablet for most people, especially artists and other creatives, combining a beautiful design with laptop-level performance at a reasonable price. Right now, it's more reasonable than usual: The 11-inch base model with 128GB of storage has fallen to a record low of $519 for Prime Day, which is 13% off its regular sticker price. (Pick up an on-sale Apple Pencil or Magic Keyboard while you're at it, too.) If it sells out on Amazon, you can score the same deal at Best Buy.

Best Prime Day MacBook deal

$1,299 Save $500   Get Deal

At $799 (or 38% off), this 13-inch MacBook Air from 2024 is a very strong option for budget laptop shoppers. Compared to the MacBook Neo, which is only $100 less with the same amount of storage, it offers faster multi-core performance and premium features like a haptic touchpad, a backlit keyboard, and Thunderbolt 4 ports. This is another Prime Day Apple deal I'm kind of surprised to see: "Cheap older MacBooks" is usually Best Buy's territory. (It also had some M3 MacBook Airs on sale at the time of writing, but they were all refurbished models.)

Best Prime Day AirTag deal

$99 Save $10   Get Deal

Here's our first-ever discount on the second-generation AirTag, Apple's recently updated Bluetooth tracker. It doesn't look any different from the original version that launched in 2021, but it has a louder speaker and a much wider range. Grab an $89 four-pack for the best value (normally $99) — that works out to $22.25 per AirTag. If you only need one or two, you'll pay $24 for them individually during Prime Day (typically $29). Best Buy and Walmart were matching both of those deals, FYI.
