Today’s best deals are kicking off with the return of $100 price drops on both the 42mm and 46mm Jet Black Apple Watch Series 10 with offers starting from $299. Next we quickly touch down with a new all-time low on the 256GB iPad mini 7 at $144 off alongside a notable open-box offer with a full Apple warranty that has the most affordable M4 iPad Pro at up to $190 off the going rate. Those offers join deals on Apple Magic Mouse, portable SSDs for iPhone, and more.
Jet Black Apple Watch Series 10 returns to Amazon low at $100 off ahead of Memorial Day, deals from $299
As part of its Memorial Day sale, Amazon has brought back some of its all-time low pricing on Apple’s latest gear and next up is Apple Watch Series 10. While not all configurations are seeing the $100 price drops, you will once again find both the 42mm and the 46mm Jet Black models starting from $299 shipped (select colors only). Details below.
Back in late April we saw most of the Apple Watch Series 10 configurations drop $100, just like we have here today on the Jet Black case and select others. This is on par with the lowest price we have tracked at Amazon and all major retailers online, outside of a few very limited and YMMV deals in-store. Previous to that, just after Series 10 launched last fall, the best we had tracked for the Black Friday and holiday season last year was at $70 off.
As you can see from the list above, only the base model, and likely most popular configurations are seeing the $100 price drops right now – the Wi-Fi + Cell and select titanium models are now $30 above our previous mention.
While it very much seems like the early Memorial Day deals on the base models are just a sign of things to come – for the most part this year, all models usually see the same price drop – it’s hard to say whether or not Amazon will bring back the full sweep of $100 discounts across all configurations at this point.

Apple’s most affordable M4 iPad Pro is now up to $190 off (Open-box w/ full warranty)
While we have seen some sizable price drops on the higher-end configurations of Apple’s M4 iPad Pro– some has high as $250 and even $300, the deals on the more affordable models are never quite as deep. Typically more like $100 off and sometimes as much as $150 when Amazon decides to get aggressive with on-page coupons, usually during holiday events, but Best Buy open-box listings with full Apple warranties are now up to $190 off on the most affordable model. Details below.
Again, you can score the 11-inch M4 iPad Pro with the 256GB storage capacity at $100 off right now at Amazon, and rarely at $150 off, but never quite as low as Best Buy is offering right now.
For folks who don’t already know the drill, we are only featuring the very best “excellent” condition units here, those that are said to work and look like new while shipping with a full 1-year Apple warranty – here’s how pricing works out right now on the most affordable M4 iPad Pro model:
These are both the best prices we can find on an open-box unit from a dealer as reputable as Best Buy, not to mention the full Apple warranty here. They are also covered under Best Buy’s official Return & Exchange Promise.

Today’s accessories and charging deals:
All four colors of the new 11-inch iPad (A16) have now dropped back down to $299 shipped
Update: While we did see the yellow and pink colorways very briefly drop to $278 or so, those deals were very short-lived and never landed on the silver and blue options. All four colorways are now back down at $299 shipped via Amazon. Details below in the original post.
Previously limited to just the blue and yellow colors, Amazon is now offering all four shades of Apple’s new iPad (A16) down at the $299 shipped all-time low. It might not be the powerful M4 iPad Pro or the M3 series iPad Air (also now at all-time low pricing), but this is a brand new iPad that just released a couple months ago at under $300.
You’ll now find all four colorways of the base model 11-inch iPad running on the A16 chip with a Liquid Retina Display, 12MP front and back cameras, Touch ID, and 128GB of storage down at $299. That’s $50 off the regular $349 list price and the lowest we have tracked to date. Today’s deals mark the first time we have seen all four models at under $320 anywhere online.
The same thing goes for the upgraded 256GB and 512GB models that are both now $50 off in all four colorways. These are the same prices we have been tracking lately on these two, but again, you’ll now find all four colorways in-stock at the discounted rate.
For some, the new iPad A16 is just too underpowered to consider, despite the particularly notable price we are featuring here today, and we get it. For others however – those that just never use Apple Intelligence anyway and just need a casual tablet experience for couch browsing, video chatting, and road trips – it’s a chance to score a brand new iPad release for a whole lot less. This is $100 under the best deal we have ever tracked on the iPad mini 7 and $200 below the current all-time low we are tracking on the most affordable M3 iPad Air.
Our launch coverage over at 9to5Mac details the new iPad (A16) completely.
Apple’s latest USB-C AirPods Max now nearly $80 off for Memorial Day, or up to $130 off open-box w/ 1-yr. warranty
As part of the Amazon Memorial Day sale, and just after the highly-anticipated launch of the new Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones, you’ll now find Apple’s latest USB-C AirPods Max over-ear headphones marked down to $479.99 shipped. Regularly $549, this is on par with our previous mention at nearly $80 off the list price. Head below for more details and a chance to save even more on some open-box listing.
Reports from over the weekend sourced from a trusted Apple analysts suggest the AirPods hardware upgrades might not be coming until next year, with a proper AirPods Max revision getting potentially held off until sometime in 2027. That’s not great news for fans of Apple’s premium over-ears, but it does also mean that an investment now will leave you with Apple’s latest and greatest for a couple years or so.
While we did see a short-lived opportunity earlier this year to land a set at $99 off, they do no often drop below the $480 we are seeing here today – all of the latest USB-C colors are now on sale.
We are also tracking some opportunities to save on almost all of the latest USB-C colorways in “excellent” open-box condition courtesy of Best Buy. They are said to work and look like new with a full 1-year Apple warranty included.
Anyone buying a new set of over-ear headphones right now should definitely have the new Sony WH-1000XM6on their radar. After getting a chance to test them out ahead of the world wide debut last week, I can confidently say they are easily the most exciting release in the headphone world for some time. They are now available for purchase and all of the details you need are waiting right here.
