The topic Deals: M5 MacBook Air up to $219 off, iPad Air $300 off, 24GB M5 MacBook Pro, Apple… is currently the subject of lively discussion — readers and analysts are keeping a close eye on developments.
This is taking place in a dynamic environment: companies’ decisions and competitors’ reactions can quickly change the picture.
The AirPods Pro 3 deals are flying alongside AirPods 4 from $99, but today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is headlined by some seriously notable M5 MacBook Air deals – Midnight 24GB 15-inch up to $219 off and this new low on the base 15-inch M5 MacBook Air at $170 off. We also have the best clearance prices yet on the M3 iPad Air lineup up to $300 off, Apple’s 24GB/1TB M5 MacBook Pro dropping back to its best Amazon price ever ($250 off launch), and the Titanium Apple Watch Series 11 hitting the Amazon all-time low at up to $160 off today (plus deals from $299). Head below for a closer look at the details.
The wonderful authorized Apple dealers over at B&H are not playing around this week with the M5 MacBook Air deals. While most of its offers on the standard configurations are the same we have featured at Amazon for the last couple weeks off and on (Amazon still has the best deal on the most affordable base model 13-inch), it has some seriously banger deals on 15-inch models at up $219 off. Details below.
Alongside the base 16GB/512GB model we highlighted this morning at $20 less than Amazon ($170 off), B&H also a couple 24GB 15-inch M5 MacBook Air deals with as much as $219 slashed for the list price, coming in well below Amazon:
The M5 MacBook Air comes standard, both from Apple and places like Amazon with Apple’s 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max. You can however upgrade to the 70W USB-C Power Adapter or the 35W Dual USB-C Port Compact Power Adapter for $20 extra when configuring your order at Apple – Amazon, for example, does not offer this customization option.
All of that said, and aside from the fact that these B&H deals include the more pricey charger, this is a regularly $1,699 machine that is currently $1,549 at Amazon ($150 off). So…not only are you getting the more expensive charger option, but you’re also paying $50 less than you would at Amazon for the same M5 MacBook Air. The only caveat here, if you want to call it that, is that B&H is only offering these deals on the Midnight colorway.
If you’re into the 15-inch 24GB, these are easily the best deals we have seen, and arguably the best M5 MacBook Air deals since release.
We have tracked a resurgence in M3 iPad Air clearance deals this week, with various models now sitting down at the best prices we have tracked to date. While deals on the brand new M4 models roll on, you can land as much as $300 off the original list prices on the M3 iPad Air right now, which is likely more than good enough for most folks. Scope out the offers down below.
As you can see below we are tracking new all-time lows on a trio of 11-inch models and a straight up $300 drop from the original list price on the 1TB 13-inch model:
Many of these same models were $200 off in and around the release of the new M4 iPad Air model. Since then prices have been creeping down on select storage capacities and colors as Amazon looks to clear out stock of the now previous-generation iPad Air. While we did feature some of these deals previously, the 256GB is $50 less now and there are some additional (or different) color options available on the others.
While there are some improvements on the M4 iPad Air for sure, I would bet that most users wouldn’t even be able to tell which model they have in there hands. Sure, there are loads of techie folks that would, and those that very much do make use of and appreciate the faster and more powerful M4 chip, but for me, and many other, the M3 Air is perhaps the best buy in iPads right now (at prices like these).
We just spotted the 24GB/1TB M5 MacBook Pro dropping to its lowest price on Amazon, but it has now fallen again to land back at the best price we have tracked to date there at $150 off – or $250 off its launch price. Details below.
We have started to see deeper up to $200 price drops on the 2026 M5 Pro models (you’ll find those below), but anything in the $150 range for the more affordable current-generation MacBook Pro is a solid discount.
Amazon has now has the 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM and the 1TB SSD down at $1,749 shipped. This is slightly below our previous mention, on par with last year’s Black Friday deals, and matching the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon since release in late 2025.
While this model carries a $1,899 list price now, it is also worth mentioning that it launched at $1,999. Apple upgraded the storage tiers on the M5 lineup just as the new M5 Pro launched last month and effectively lowered the price on this 1TB config. Today’s deal is $250 under the launch price, and $150 off the new MSRP for the lowest we have tracked.
Here are the best deals live right now on the more powerful M5 Pro lineup:
If you ask me an Apple Watch Series 11 from $299 is a near-perfect Mother’s Day gift. It, of course, depends on the Mom, but with the deals flying right now it is a great time to wrap Apple’s latest wearable around Mom’s wrist. And while the base models from $299 are still $100 off, we just spotted some new all-time lows landing on the GPS + Cell Titanium variants at up to $160 off too.
Let’s take a look at the base aluminum case models first. The standard editions are $100 off to match the lowest we have tracked, but keep an eye on that 46mm GPS + Cell below – that’s the best deal to date and arguably the best Apple Watch price drop since September:
Now, it’s on to the new lows landing on the high-end variants this morning – the top offers with the Milanese Loops are at the best price we have tracked to date on Amazon with up to $160 in savings:
