We’ll cut right to the chase: Amazon Prime Day 2023 is downright one of the best times of the year to save on Apple products. Of course, there are other Prime Day deals to shop, like fashion and luggage, but we’re particularly excited to see the Apple deals rolling in since Apple as a brand never has sales of its own. Right now, we found a MacBook Pro for $800 off and the Apple Watch Series 8 is down 30% to just $310. The AirPods Max are also down below $500, which is rare for the trendy but expensive headphones.
Below, we’ve curated a list of all the best Prime Day 2023 Apple deals you can shop now on Apple Watches, AirPods, MacBooks and iPads. If one of these deals are on the gadget that you’ve been looking for, we recommend going ahead and buying it now since Apple products tend to sell out fast and, by the way, will only run July 11 and 12. That said, we’ll be updating this list as the official sale roars on, so you can save this article and check back for the latest deals.

The Series 8 was our pick for the best Apple Watch on the market thanks to its ability to track your sleep, heart rate, activity and more. Improvements to the Series 8 from the Series 7 include a longer battery life, faster charging and an internal temperature sensor.
The Watch SE is down to the lowest price we’ve seen it, at $199. It offers the standard wearable features, like sleep and heart rate monitoring, activity tracking and then some. You’ll lose the blood oxygen monitoring the Series 8 offers, and other smaller updates like that. It’s a great option if you’re just breaking into the world of smart watches.

With AirPods Pro, you can switch between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode to control how much outside noise you let in. The earbuds come with three pairs of silicone tips for a customizable fit, an impressive 30 hour battery life when paired with the wireless charging case, and an undeniably impressive audio experience (in an upgrade from the 1st Generation AirPods Pro, the 2nd Generation has Apple’s H2 chip).
You won’t get Active Noise Cancellation with the standard AirPods, but you will get a solid pair of true wireless earbuds. They deliver up to 24 hours of listening time when paired with the charging case, in-ear detection so they’ll pause and resume play as you take them out and put them in, plus they seamlessly pair with your other Apple devices. To boot, they come at a $90 price tag that’s much more budget friendly than other AirPods models.
The 3rd Gen update to classic AirPods brings about a longer battery life that’s comparable to AirPods Pro (up to 30 hours) and a charging case that’s MagSafe compatible. The earbuds still have the single fit design (versus the rubberized tips of the Pro models) but still pack Personalized Spatial Audio and dynamic head tracking for an immersive sound experience.
Apple’s version of on-ear headphones, AirPods Max have memory foam ear pads, an up to 20 hour battery life, Active Noise Cancellation—and they’re good-looking, too. You can enjoy spatial audio and dynamic head tracking, which Apple describes as creating a theater-like sound experience. The headphones also have on-ear detection so your music will pause and play as you take them off and put them back on.

Apple 2020 MacBook Air (256GB)
Now 25% Off
Apple 2022 13-inch MacBook Pro (256GB)

A mega discount on a MacBook, this 2021 Pro model is $800 off. The laptop features full terabyte of storage, so if you’re working with large files it’s an excellent option. The model seeing the steepest discount has a 16-inch Liquid Retina display that creates clear and crisp images. The up to 17 hour battery life will carry you throughout your commute, work day and beyond. It’s one of the biggest discounts we’ve ever seen on an Apple laptop.
This is the lowest price we’ve ever seen on the MacBook Air, so if you’re shopping with a tighter budget for your new Apple laptop, you’ll want to take note. It’s lightweight and slim, so it’s easy to slip into your backpack or briefcase without adding any bulk. The solid battery life (up to 18 hours) has you covered all day long.
In 2022, Apple launched this 13-inch MacBook Pro, giving users who like the features of the Pro a smaller and more portable option. The 256GB of storage is good for everyday use and it’s definitely more affordable when compared to the newest MacBook Pro models. The Retina display, up to 20 hour battery life and 3-pound weight make it a solid laptop choice if you’ve been looking to upgrade.

Am I the only one still nostalgic about Apple’s home button? It might feel like a thing of the past, but if you’re still a fan of the feature, grab this iPad while it’s under $300. The tablet has Apple’s home button, yes, but it’s also packed with the A13 Bionic chip for high-quality graphics display on its Retina screen. Oh, and the tablet has an up to 10 hour battery life. It’s a solid intro iPad if you’ve been waiting to get your hands on an iPad without overspending.
This tablet might be just a quarter of an inch thick (making it one of the easiest pieces of tech I own to pack on trips or bring while commuting), but it packs a punch thanks to Apple’s M1 chip. If your iPad is going to replace your laptop while you travel and commute, you’ll want to opt for the Air as it weighs just a pound, adding virtually no weight to your backpack or carry-on.
One of the more colorful iPads on the market, the 10th Gen iPad has a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display for streaming videos and using your favorite apps. An upgrade from the 9th Gen, this Apple tablet features the A14 Bionic chip, that works to deliver an improved and faster performance, making gaming and higher demand functions more seamless. It’s compatible with Apple Pencil (1st Gen).
Even more portable than the iPad Air, the iPad Mini has an 8.3-inch screen that makes the device Apple’s smallest tablet, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t offer comparable function to the bigger models. The A15 Bionic chip gives the device an up to 10 hour battery life and a speedy performance. It’s a quarter of an inch thick and weighs 0.65 pounds, so you’ll hardly even notice it’s in your briefcase or backpack while you commute or travel.
