For much of the world, it’s hard to imagine life without the presence of Apple products. Whether you’re someone who anxiously awaits the latest drops and upgrades or you care less about brands but value reliable devices, Apple likely has a place in your arsenal of tech. While we don’t always love how pricey Apple products can be, they’re worthwhile investments – that are also known to go on sale. This weekend, Best Buy has some of the best Apple deals thanks to its Apple Sales Event, which is running until Sunday, June 9.
Always competitive, Amazon is matching some of these prices, too. (In some cases, like that of the Mac Mini, Amazon is offering a better price.)
Best MacBook deal
Opens in a new window
Why we like it
Having a reliable laptop that can multitask well is important for students, professionals, and casual consumers of entertainment alike. With the Apple M3 processor and 8GB of RAM, this 14-inch MacBook Pro speedily moves from task to task without slowing down. While its 8GB RAM is helpful for users who edit photos and videos, it’s still a mid-range laptop, meaning that if you’re an extensive gamer or working on advanced video projects, you may want something more sophisticated. However, for typical use, the MacBook Pro (M3, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) does the job and does it well.
Best iPad deal
Opens in a new window
Why we like it
This Apple iPad Air (5th generation) might not be the newest model on the block, but it’s still an impressive iPad down to a favorable price. Today, you can score the iPad Air (M1, WiFi, 64GB) for $399.99 at Best Buy, scoring $200 off Best Buy’s list price. (Meanwhile, over at Amazon, the same device is on sale for $549.) Best Buy’s deal is only here until Sunday, so we recommend taking action on it sooner rather than later if you’re in the market. While this model doesn’t have the increased storage of its new counterparts, it’s a great option for folks who don’t need as much storage and just want to enjoy a basic iPad.
Best AirPods deal

Why we like it
Best Buy’s Apple Sales Event has plenty of AirPods deals. While the classic earbuds are always a solid choice, today’s promotion brings the pricey Apple AirPods Max down to a more approachable price of $449.99. (Amazon is also matching this price, too.) These high-fidelity, active noise-canceling over-ear headphones offer 20 hours of listening time and a comfortable design that makes them suitable for the long haul. If you love watching videos and movies on the go, these headphones offer great support: when streaming through supported apps, they provide you with a spatial audio experience of your favorite entertainment.
Best Apple Watch deal

Why we like it
If you’re searching for a sophisticated Apple Watch that enhances your health and fitness routines while also offering savvy safety features, then the Apple Watch Series 9 (45mm, GPS) is a worthwhile investment. (Especially since today’s sale puts $100 back in your wallet.) With the S9 chip, you can engage with your Apple Watch without even having to touch the screen, giving you a truly hands-free experience. With support from the Apple Watch S9, you can take your own ECG, receive notification if you have an irregular heartbeat, and collect data on the quality of sleep you’re getting. Plus, with Fall Detection and Crash Detection features, your Apple Watch can call for help even when you can’t.
