Amazon’s early Labor Day 2026 sale features discounts across much of Apple’s lineup, from AirPods and iPads to accessories and the latest MacBook Pros. The savings range from $19 on a four-pack of AirTags to $500 on an M5 Max MacBook Pro, and the timing is especially notable with Apple’s iPhone 18 event also on the horizon. If you're shopping the ecosystem while waiting for the next iPhone, these deals are worth considering. For more deals we’ve vetted across tech, home, and other categories, follow the rest of our Labor Day coverage throughout the holiday weekend.

Amazon has all three current AirPods options discounted, starting with the standard AirPods 4 at $99, down from $129. They’re the least expensive pair here and keep Apple’s open-fit design, which is a better match for people who don’t like silicone ear tips. The AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation are $149 instead of $179 and keep that same fit while adding ANC, making them the more useful upgrade for commuting or travel.

The AirPods Pro 3 are the most full-featured option at $199, down from $249, but they’re also a different kind of earbud. Their silicone tips create a tighter seal, so they’re the better choice if stronger noise cancellation is more important than the open feel of the AirPods 4. They also add features such as Adaptive Audio, hearing-health tools, and heart-rate sensing during workouts, which give them more appeal for people who use their earbuds heavily throughout the day.

Also discounted are the over-ear AirPods Max. The newer AirPods Max 2 are $479, down from $549, while the original AirPods Max are $429 instead of $549. That makes the older model the better value if you mainly want Apple’s over-ear design and active noise cancellation for less, while the Max 2 are the better fit if you’d rather pay $50 more for the newer generation.

These 2026 M5 MacBooks are up to $500 off during Amazon’s early Labor Day 2026 sale

Amazon has two of Apple’s 2026 MacBook Pro configurations on sale, with the bigger discount going to the M5 Max model. The version with 48GB of unified memory and a 2TB SSD is $4,499, down from $4,999, which is a substantial cut if you actually need that level of performance for video editing, 3D work, development, or other demanding workloads. For everyday browsing, writing, and office work, though, it’s far more machine than most people need. The M5 Pro model is the more realistic choice for a wider range of buyers at $2,354, down from $2,499. It comes with 24GB of memory and a 1TB SSD, so there’s still plenty of room for heavier creative and technical work without jumping all the way to the M5 Max price. Apple introduced both models in March 2026.

But if you don’t need a MacBook Pro, the 13-inch 2026 MacBook Air with the M5 chip is also on sale for $1,499, down from $1,599. It’s the more practical option for people who want a current Mac for everyday work, school, travel, and lighter creative tasks, especially if you don’t need the extra performance or higher-end hardware that comes with the Pro models.

These iPads are up to $100 off for Amazon’s early Labor Day 2026 sale

with A16 chip Apple iPad 11-inch $399.00 at Amazon $449.00 Save $50.00 Get Deal Get Deal $399.00 at Amazon $449.00 Save $50.00 Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro) $569.00 at Amazon $599.00 Save $30.00 Get Deal Get Deal $569.00 at Amazon $599.00 Save $30.00 Apple iPad Air 13-inch (M4) $849.00 at Amazon $949.00 Save $100.00 Get Deal Get Deal $849.00 at Amazon $949.00 Save $100.00 Apple iPad Pro 13-inch (M5) $1,399.99 at Amazon $1,499.00 Save $99.01 Get Deal Get Deal $1,399.99 at Amazon $1,499.00 Save $99.01 SEE 1 MORE

The 11-inch iPad with the A16 chip and 128GB of storage is the more straightforward buy at $399, down from $449. It’s the less-expensive option and should cover the basics comfortably, whether that means streaming, reading, video calls, schoolwork, or using a keyboard for lighter productivity. The iPad mini with the A17 Pro chip and 128GB of storage is $569 instead of $599, and the appeal here is really the smaller size. It’s easier to hold for reading, carry while traveling, or use for quick notes, but you’re paying $170 more than the 11-inch iPad at the current sale prices.

The larger iPads are discounted as well, including the 13-inch iPad Air with the M4 chip and 128GB of storage, which is $849 (originally $949), and its Wi-Fi + Cellular version is also $100 off. It’s the more sensible pick if you want extra room for multitasking, drawing, or using an iPad with a keyboard without paying Pro prices. But if you’re set on a Pro, the 13-inch iPad Pro with the M5 chip and 256GB of storage is also $100 off at $1,399, down from $1,499, with the cellular version discounted by $83.

You can save up to $140 on these Apple Watches during Amazon’s early Labor Day 2026 sale

GPS + Cellular, 42mm Apple Watch Series 11 $609.00 at Amazon $749.00 Save $140.00 Get Deal Get Deal $609.00 at Amazon $749.00 Save $140.00 with AppleCare+ (2 Years) Apple Watch SE 3 $288.00 at Amazon $298.00 Save $10.00 Get Deal Get Deal $288.00 at Amazon $298.00 Save $10.00 with AppleCare+ (2 years) Apple Watch Ultra 3 $878.00 at Amazon $898.00 Save $20.00 Get Deal Get Deal $878.00 at Amazon $898.00 Save $20.00 SEE 0 MORE

The 42mm Apple Watch Series 11 with GPS + Cellular is discounted to $609 from $749—its lowest price yet, according to price trackers. It’s the one I’d choose if you want a current Apple Watch with cellular connectivity, so that you can make calls, send messages, stream music, or track workouts without keeping your iPhone nearby, while still getting the broader health and fitness features of Apple’s standard flagship watch.

The 40mm Apple Watch SE 3 with GPS and two years of AppleCare+ is $288, down from its original $298. The $10 discount is modest, but it’s the least expensive option here and already includes two years of AppleCare+, making it the more practical choice for someone who wants the core Apple Watch experience without paying for cellular connectivity or the higher-end hardware of the Series 11.

At the other end, there's the 49mm Apple Watch Ultra 3 with GPS + Cellular and two years of AppleCare+ for $878, down from $898. At just $20 off, this is more of a specific-use-case buy—its larger titanium case, 100-meter water resistance, depth gauge, Action button, and dual-frequency GPS are more useful for endurance training, hiking, diving, and other outdoor activities than for everyday smartwatch use.

Save over $30 on Apple accessories

Apple AirTag (2nd Gen, 4-Pack) $79.99 at Amazon $99.00 Save $19.01 Get Deal Get Deal $79.99 at Amazon $99.00 Save $19.01 Apple Pencil Pro $97.00 at Amazon $129.00 Save $32.00 Get Deal Get Deal $97.00 at Amazon $129.00 Save $32.00 SEE -1 MORE

The second-generation AirTags are the more broadly useful accessory deal here, with a four-pack down to $79.99 from $99 and sitting at its lowest price yet, according to price trackers. A pack of four is especially handy if you want to spread them across luggage, keys, backpacks, or other things you tend to misplace, instead of paying for each tracker separately.

The Apple Pencil Pro is a more specific buy at $99, down from $129. It makes the most sense if you already use a compatible iPad for handwritten notes, drawing, photo edits, or marking up documents, since those are the situations where the extra precision and controls actually get used. For everyone else, the AirTags are the easier deal to recommend because they solve a simpler everyday problem.

Amazon Labor Day Deals FAQs

When do Labor Day sales start?

Early Labor Day sales have already started. More retailers are likely to start their own sales leading up to the holiday on Monday, Sept. 7.

Are Labor Day sales worth it?

Labor Day has traditionally been a good time to find deals in many categories, but whether they're worth it or not depends entirely on what you're looking for. Compared to sales like Black Friday or Prime Day, Labor Day falls short on volume and quality of discounts, but you might still find a good price on tech or kitchen appliances that will match those holiday prices—or even beat them. (We use price tracking tools to let you know if a deal is worth it or not.)

What other stores have Labor Day sales?

So far, Home Depot, Amazon, and Wayfair have started their early Labor Day sales. Target, Walmart, and Best Buy are likely to follow. (Lifehacker will be rounding up deals for all of these sales.)
