The massive Walmart Event 1 Black Friday sale is now live, the Week 3 Best BuyBlack Friday Doorbusters hit this morning, and your 9to5Toys Lunch Break is here to highlight the best of them. Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 are seeing a major early Black Friday deal down at $139 shipped – one of the lowest prices they have ever been offered for – while Apple Watch Series 10 models have now dropped to new Amazon all-time lows from $249 (alongside the titanium model at $199 off). We also have AirTag down at the $18 Amazon low and a solid $250 price drop on the most affordable 13-inch M4 iPad Pro. All of that and more awaits below.
It’s back! All 2025 M4 MacBook Air models are $250 off again – arguably the best Black Friday deal yet
Early last week, right at the top of the month, one of the best and most notable Apple deals of the year went live – $250 price drops across the 2025 M4 MacBook Air lineup. Those Amazon all-time low prices sadly disappeared, jumping back up closer to full price on most configurations over the last few days, but they are back!
Amazon is now once again offering its best prices to date across the M4 MacBook Air lineup to celebrate Black Friday month 2025. We are looking at straight up $250 price drops across just about every color and RAM/storage configuration Amazon carries, and that includes both the 13- and 15-inch models:
As mentioned above, just about all of the deals listed above across the lineup jumped back up closer to full price earlier this week. Just when it looked like Amazon might have done away with the all-time low pricing here (or at least until later in the month anyway), they have all made a triumphant return back to the best price we have tracked to date.
Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 just hit one of the best prices ever at $139 shipped (Reg. $249)
Update: The Best Buy listing at $120 jumped back up in price very quickly, but the Walmart early Black Friday sale now has them nearly as low down at $139 shipped.
Best Buy is now offering Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 down at the best price we have ever tracked online right now. Typically carrying a $249 list price, you’ll now find them marked down to $119.99 shipped – we are expecting a price match via Amazon any time now (and potentially over Walmart as part of its early Black Friday sale that goes live very soon – 7:00 p.m. ET). Amazon does, however, still has AirPods 4 down at the $85 shipped all-time low.
Apple just replaced the AirPods Pro 2 with the new series 3 model that carries the same $249 list price. But the now previous model remain a compelling set of Apple earbuds, were one of, if not, the best in the business not more than a couple months ago, and are now down at the best price we have ever tracked.
We have only seen AirPods Pro 2 drop down to the previous $149 all-time low a few times – but never anything lower than that outside of extremely limited in-store only offers, or the odd YMMV offer almost no one ever had a chance at.
Most affordable Apple Watch Series 10 models hit all-time lows in early Black Friday sale at $150 off, deals from $249
Update: Amazon has now price matched from $249 on both Apple Watch Series 10 sizes – no Walmart+ required:
As part of the now live Walmart Event 1 Black Friday sale, Walmart is now offering the lowest prices we have tracked online for Apple Watch Series 10. The 42mm model is now down at $249and the 46mm is going for $279 – we are expecting an Amazon price match very soon. These deals at Walmart are only available for Walmart+ members until midnight tonight.
Previous to today we had almost never seen the 42mm go for less than $279 and the 46mm for less than the $310 we are seeing on Amazon right now. Chances are, we will see Amazon price match here very soon, but it might not be until midnight ET tonight when the Walmart sale opens up for everyone, if at it does happen at all.
Both models fell to the previous Amazon lows during the 2025 Prime Day sales at $279 and $310 respectively. But with the early Black Friday sale now live and the new Apple Watch Series 11 now out in the wild we are getting the best prices yet at $150 off the list prices on the most affordable GPS-only models Apple offers.
Apple’s most affordable 13-inch M4 iPad Pro is now $250 off at Amazon – one of the best prices ever
Earlier this week we spotted Costco knocking the most affordable 11-inch M4 iPad Pro model down to its one of the lowest prices we have ever tracked. And today it’s Amazon’s turn. Moving up to the more sizable 13-inch variant, Amazon is now offering the least pricey 256GB model in Space Black at $250 off the original list price – the best we have tracked in over 6 months there, and very close to the lowest price ever.
Amazon is now offering the 256GB 13-inch M4 iPad Pro in Space Black down at $1,049 shipped. This configuration carried a $1,299 list price and is now $250 less than that.
We have seen deeper discounts on the higher-end models, like this 1TB M4 iPad Pro cell model at $300 off, as well as some previous exclusive offers for readers on the 1TB and 2TB nano-texture variants at as much as $500 off, but the most affordable models in the lineup have never really seen deals like that – $250 off on the least expensive 13-incher is quite a notable price.
How does all of this stack up to the new M5 iPad Pro? Well, firstly the new model is by and large the same as the M4, just with Apple’s state-of-the-art, latest-generation M5 chip. That’s not insignificant or anything, but you’re going to be paying much closer to full price for one of those right now. And considering how rare it has been to see the 256GB M4 iPad Pro configurations at $200 off or better, it might be quite a while before we see that on the new model. We can’t say for sure, and it is Black Friday season, but as of right now the comparable M5 machine is roughly $50 off the list $1,299 list price and it’s hard to imagine it dropping a full $250 before year’s end.

M4 Mac mini is the best Apple purchase I have made in years, and they are now up to $110 off
With all of the new M5 talk and fancy new Apple Watch releases, and the all-new AirPods Pro 3, never mind the all-time low pricing on M4 MacBook Air models, one of the best and most value-packed current-generation machines might be slipping under your radar – M4 Mac mini. I have been raving about this machine for a long while now, and with early Black Friday pricing now live, and our recent follow-up video review after 1 year in the lab, we wanted to make sure these deals are front and center.
There’s no denying how convenient a MacBook can be – it is effectively just as good a home office computer as it is a portable solution – but it’s going to cost you a whole lot more than the Mac mini. And while I certainly value the freedom Apple’s battery-powered Macs provide, the M4 Mac mini has been the best and most useful Apple purchase I have made in recent memory.
If you need to be able to pick up and go with your Mac system, then the Mac mini clearly isn’t for you, but if you don’t or you’re just looking to land a solid new at-home setup without completely running up the credit card, there’s simply nothing better if you ask me. You can get the same on-screen macOS experience as the MacBook for $250 less than the most affordable current-generation MacBook, and that’s with the all-time low Black Friday pricing right now.
