there’s no denying that Apple devices are expensive. And it doesn’t help that they hardly ever go on sale. But thanks to Amazon’s annual Prime Day event, a number of Apple products are currently discounted, including MacBooks, Apple Watches, MagSafe accessories, and more. We’ve rounded up all the best deals below, but remember, Prime Day ends in a few hours (11:59 pm PT on July 13, to be exact).
The WIRED Gear team tests products year-round. We sorted through hundreds of thousands of deals by hand to make these picks. Crossed-out products are out of stock or no longer discounted. Our Amazon Prime Day coverage page has the latest stories, and our Prime Day Shopping Tips will help you avoid bad deals. You can also get a one-year subscription to WIRED for $5 here.
Updated July 13: We’ve updated pricing and retailer availability throughout.

Apple’s 14-inch MacBook Pro (8/10, WIRED Recommends) comes with upgrades on the inside and out. It has an industrial look, with a boxier chassis, tons of ports (including a MagSafe port for charging), a beautiful 14.2-inch display with ProMotion (increasing the frame rate to 120Hz), and a 1080p webcam. Under the hood, the M1 Pro offers excellent performance that can handle nearly any task you throw at it. The discount applies to the 1 terabyte model, but the 512-gigabyte version is also on sale for $1,799 ($200 off).
The 16-inch MacBook Pro (512 gigabytes) offers the same features as the 14-inch version. But since it’s ginormous, it’s not the easiest MacBook to travel with and barely fits in most of my backpacks. Still, the extra screen real estate is great, especially if you spend most of your time staring at a computer for work on the go. This model frequently fluctuates in price and has dipped lower to $2,111, but this is still a solid deal.
The Apple Watch Series 7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is our favorite smartwatch for iPhone users, and it’s currently at the lowest price we’ve ever tracked. Compared to the Series 6, it has a 20 percent larger display (complete with a full-size QWERTY keyboard), stronger glass, and more water and dust resistance. It’s an excellent choice if you want to upgrade your much older Apple Watch or you’re in the market for your first one. The smaller 41-mm version is also on sale for $279 ($50 off).
We consider the Apple Watch SE (8/10, WIRED Recommends) the best option for most people. It comes equipped with a Retina display, an S5 chip (which is faster than both the Series 3 and Series 5), fall detection, and more memory. That’s in addition to the standard health- and fitness-tracking features, like heart rate monitoring and workout modes. But since it’s an entry-level tracker, you won’t get the more complex features included on the Series 7, like the always-on display, ECG monitor, or SpO2 sensor.
The Apple TV 4K (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is a great streaming device for those who are loyal to the Apple ecosystem. It packs an A12 Bionic chip for faster performance (and support for HDR of up to 60 fps), easy-to-navigate menus, and a redesigned remote that’s much more intuitive to use. It’s also at the lowest price we’ve seen.
We like the AirPods Max (8/10, WIRED Recommends) for multiple reasons. They’re extremely fashionable, offer excellent sound and noise cancellation, and integrate seamlessly with iOS devices. They’re also one of the most expensive wireless headphones out there. They dipped to $323 briefly back in April, but this is still a good deal.
They might not come in Cupertino White, but these Beats Fit Pro are associate editor Parker Hall’s favorite Apple-made headphones for most people. They come in many colors, are extremely comfortable, and sound great, plus they instantly pair with all of your Apple devices, just like standard AirPods would (but with a much cooler look). You should definitely buy them over the AirPods Pro.

There are plenty of third-party MagSafe chargers on the market, including ones that are currently on sale, but you’ll get the fastest wireless charging possible with Apple’s very own. It attaches to the back of your iPhone 12 or iPhone 13 magnetically and recharges your device at 15 watts. WIRED reviews editor Julian Chokkattu says his only complaint is that the cable is a bit too short.
The MagSafe Duo is perfect for those with an iPhone and an Apple Watch. With a spot for each, you can use the Duo to charge both devices simultaneously. It also folds together seamlessly, making it ideal for travel. And it’s compatible with AirPods (only the ones with support) and Qi-certified devices.
Apple’s official case with MagSafe is a nice option for your iPhone. It has accurate cutouts for ports, clicky buttons, and a slim profile. We also like that it keeps the camera module flush so your iPhone won’t rock back and forth when it’s flat on a surface. The case also comes in a leather version. You can find more great iPhone 13 accessories here.
If you prefer a trackpad to a standard mouse for your Mac or iPad, the Magic Trackpad is a wonderful accessory—I’ve especially enjoyed using it with the Mac Studio and Studio Display. It pairs automatically to your device, offers about a month’s worth of battery life, and comes with support for Apple’s full suite of Multi-Touch gestures. It’s confusing, but this is the newer version of the Magic Trackpad 2.
