To kick off a new week, we’re back with a collection of notable discounts headlined by Apple’s official MagSafe Battery Pack at a new low of $74. That’s alongside a return to the best Amazon price on the latest 13-inch M1 MacBook Air at $149 off and this Apple flash sale at Best Buy. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
Apple’s official MagSafe Battery Pack is down to a new low
Verizon Wireless is now offering the official Apple MagSafe Battery Pack for $74. While you’d typically pay the retail price of $99 at every other retailer, including Amazon, today’s offer amounts to a new all-time low. There’s 25% in savings to be had from the usual going rate with today’s offer also undercutting our previous mention by $10.
Serving as a perfect companion to your new iPhone 13 or existing iPhone 12, the Apple MagSafe Battery Pack arrives to dish out some extra power while on the go. It can refuel your handset at 5W speeds from the internal battery, though steps up to offer the full 15W MagSafe charging speeds when plugged into a USB-C cable. It has a slick white plastic shell that will work with everything from Apple’s mini handsets all the way up to its Pro Max releases. Dive into our first impressions post for a closer look.
Save $149 on Apple’s latest 13-inch M1 MacBook Air
Amazon is now discounting Apple’s latest 13-inch M1 MacBook Air 256GB to $850. Normally fetching $999, you’re looking at a match of the Amazon all-time low with $149 in savings attached. The upgraded 512 GB model is also seeing the same $149 discount, which brings it down to $1,100.
Bringing M1 to a fan-less build that’s perfect for taking on-the-go or using away from the desk, Apple’s latest MacBook Air delivers all of the performance gains you’d expect. Centered around a 13-inch Retina display, there’s also a pair of Thunderbolt ports supplemented by Wi-Fi 6 as well as 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM.

Best Buy kicks off the week with Apple flash sale
