Apple Watch Series 10, M4 MacBook Air, more 9to5Mac

While we are still tracking one of the best prices ever on Apple Certified Refurb Apple Watch Ultra 2 units as well as Apple Pencil Pro, today’s lineup of Apple deals are (mostly) all about Apple Watch Series 10. Despite the fear of looming price hikes around very corner on the internet, Amazon is now offering 42mm and 46mm Apple Watch Series 10 back down at the lowest price we have tracked to date with $100 off the list prices across several configurations. The deals start from $299 in brand-new condition and as low as $270 on open-box units, ranging up through the titanium models. Those offers join the best deals we have tracked on the 15-inch 16GB M4 MacBook Air and whole lot more you’ll find down below. 

Jet Black Apple Watch Series 10 now starts from $299 ($100 off), or open-box w/ full warranty from $270 ($130 off)

After Best Buy’s ongoing Spring Sale knocked $70 off the Apple Watch Series 10 lineup, Amazon has now undercut those deal prices to bring just about all models back down to all-time low pricing at $100 off. We saw the $70 discounts more than a few times for Black Friday and the holidays last year, but it took until early 2025 before pricing started to drop any deeper than that. At this point we generally recommend holding off on scoring a new Series 10 until the configuration you’re after gets into that $100 off range, and that’s exactly what we have here today with deals starting from $299 shipped on the 42mm and $329 on the 46mm. Details below.

Just to reiterate, we didn’t see $100 price drops online during any of the Prime Day, Black Friday, or holiday offers in 2024. But now, after seeing a few drops at $100 off like we are here today in 2025, this is the new price to beat and a wonderful chance to score a sweet deal on the latest Apple Watch that first debuted last September.

While not every band configuration is marked down this deep right now, you will find the base model 42mm and 46mm with the JetBlack case and Sport band at $100 off alongside the 42mm GPS + Cell variant – we will update this post if additional configurations start to drop.

For the record Best Buy’s open-box listing in “excellent” condition on the 46mm is now down at $298.99 shipped and the 42mm model is going for $269.99 shipped. Both of which ship with a full 1-year Apple warranty and deliver as much as $130 in savings off the list prices.

Apple’s most affordable 15-inch 16GB M4 MacBook Air hits new online low at $108 off, more from $900

While there are still some great trade-in opportunities top flip your older MacBook for the new M4 MacBook Air – you can get one at $550 off with an M3 trade, our continued efforts to uncover the best straight up cash deals for folks without gear to trade rolls on. We are still tracking a chance to score $99 off the base 13-inch model, but we also just spotted a sweet “excellent” condition open-box unit that has the most affordable 15-inch M4 MacBook Air starting at the best price we have tracked online. Details below.

As of right now, Amazon’s brand-new listings on the base model 15-inch M4 MacBook Air with 16GB of RAM and the 256GB SSD are starting at $1,149 (that’s within $10 of the best we have tracked to date) and a great price considering how new this model is.

That said, Best Buy’s open-box listings in “excellent” condition with a full 1-year Apple warranty are now starting down at $1,090.99 for the Midnight model. That’s a $108 off the list price and the lowest price we have tracked online for a new 15-inch M4 MacBook Air. The only deals we have seen for less than this were short-lived brick and mortar in-store affairs.

The other colors aren’t dropping down this low at the time of writing.

Here are the details from Best Buy on these open boxes:

• Apple One (1) Year Limited Warranty
• Geek Squad Verified
• Works and looks like new. Restored to factory settings.
• Includes all original parts, packaging and accessories (or suitable replacement).

For some folks, the $108 isn’t going to be quite enough to warranty going open-box, and we completely get it. But if you are looking for the best price on one of these machines in the early days, it should at least be on your radar.

Here’s how the best brand-new pricing we can find online shakes out across the lineup right now:

• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/256GB $949 (Reg. $999)
• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/512GB from $1,144 (Reg. $1,199)
• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 24GB/512GB $1,329 (Reg. $1,399)

• 15-inch M4 MacBook Air 24GB/512GB $1,524 (Reg. $1,599)

Today’s accessories and charging deals:

It’s back: Apple Pencil Pro returns to one of its best prices to date at $80 (‘New-open box’)

The Amazon deal price for Apple Pencil Pro has now jumped up to $114, it is still fetching the full $129 at Best Buy, and Woot just brought back its particularly notable open-box offer. Alongside Apple Pencil 2 for previous-gen iPads down at $69.99, you’ll now find the latest Apple Pencil Pro on sale for $79.99 Prime shipped (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise).

Regularly $129, getting a chance to scoop up the flagship Apple Pencil Pro with built-in Find My at under $99 has become increasingly rare – we haven’t seen it go for less than that in more than a few months in brand-new condition.

We did catch Best Buy’s open-box listingwith a full Apple warranty drop to $88 for a brief time recently, but that deal has since come and gone. It is now sitting $101.99 – not the sort of open-box number we would recommend jumping on.

However, Woot has now brought back its notable open-box offer to save the day. Landing on par with our previous mention from last week – it sold out quite quickly by the way – it says these units are in “new-open box condition” and “with at least 120 days remaining of the original Apple warranty, and will be packaged in their original Apple packaging.”
