If you were disappointed that you missed out on any decent Apple deals during the last Black Friday or Prime Day, Presidents’ Day has come through with the good stuff. Compared to the Apple store’s usually skippable price drops through sale seasons, third-party retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart can offer you far better prices for the same high value the brand is known for.
All the new products Apple could release in March: iPhone 17e, iPad Air, MacBooks
Pro tip: Opt for a last-gen model to save the most. Walmart has an Apple Watch Series 10 with cellular connectivity on sale for $200 off, which makes it the same price as a non-cellular Series 11. The big-box store is also selling first-gen AirTags for only $17 a pop. They sold out on Amazon earlier this week after falling to the same price there.

Why we like it
The non-ANC AirPods are some of our top budget earbuds. They connect seamlessly with iPhones, sound great, and last for up to five hours at a time. (Their included charging case offers up to 30 total hours of juice.) Amazon and Walmart both have them on sale for $99, or 23% off. They’re 99 cents pricier at Best Buy.

The previous version of Apple’s flagship wearable has a thin, bright OLED display, fast charging, and tons of built-in health sensors, including a blood oxygen monitor. It supports all the latest watchOS 26 features like Workout Buddy, Sleep Score, and hypertension notifications. Compared to the newer Series 11, the only “upgrades” the Series 10 lacks are a slightly better battery life and more scratch-resistant glass.

With a speedy processor and a long battery life, the M3 iPad Air is our favorite Apple tablet for most people. (The regular iPad is pokier and better for kids, while the iPad Pro is overkill.) “It will be your new go-to device for streaming, reading, or creative projects,” writes Mashable’s Samantha Mangino. The base model with 128GB of storage is on sale for $489.99 on Amazon, which is its lowest price since Black Friday. It’s nearly $60 more expensive at Best Buy.

Apple’s current MacBook Air is an exceptional value at full price, so it’s a no-brainer recommendation whenever it goes on sale. It features a nice 12MP webcam, a snappy keyboard, and a crisp display, and its M4 chip is miles faster than any other Windows laptop at its price point. It also comes in a slightly pricier 15-inch size if you want a bigger screen and better audio quality. That one’s on sale for $150 off at Amazon, too. (Both versions are $50 more expensive at Best Buy, so stick with Amazon.)

Why we like it
The original AirTag has fallen to its lowest price ever in the wake of its successor’s release last month. They’re very similar Bluetooth trackers; the newer one just adds a bigger tracking range and a louder speaker. If you need a couple extra for your keys, wallet, or pet, you can snag a four-pack on sale for only $64 at Amazon and Walmart (another all-time low). That works out to just $16 per AirTag. For reference, Best Buy is selling them individually for $24.99 and bundled for $69.99.
