AirPods 4 just dropped again at Amazon, now down at $90 (Within $1 of Prime Day)
Amazon has now knocked the latest AirPods 4 back to $89.99 shipped – that’s within $1 of the Prime Day all-time low from last month – alongside the AirPods 4 ANC model down at $139.99 shipped. Details below.
Today’s deal on the base set is $9 under our previous, post-Prime Day mention to deliver the lowest price we can find online. This set fell to $89 during the 4-day 2025 Prime Day festivities in early July, and is now within $1 of the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon to date. There have been some one-off and extremely YMMV-type deals for a touch less than this, but just about all of them came from less than stellar retailers and very few had a chance at them even if they wanted to.
The AirPods 4 with ANC have also dropped down another $9 from our previous mention at $139.99 shipped. This is certainly a solid price for these buds, but we did see them fall down to $119 all-time low during Prime Day.
The AirPods Pro 2 are remaining at the same $169 we featured previously – that’s $80 off the $249 list price.
It’s nearly September now, and that means new Apple gear is landing very soon. We aren’t sure exactly what is inbound, but at this point it does appear we will be waiting much longer than a couple weeks for the new AirPods Max, and that AirPods Pro 3 could be on the docket. Scope out more of the latest from 9to5Mac below:
Amazon slashes $100 off the prices of just about all iPad mini 7 models today, deals from $399
Now joining the rest of the early Apple Labor Day deals, Amazon has now once again knocked $100 off just about all iPad A17 Pro configurations. This includes the base model of Apple’s latest miniature tablet experience starting down at $399 shipped from the usual $499 and carries through most storage options and colors from there.
As you can see in the list below, today’s deal slashes $100 off the list prices across all storage configurations:
If, for whatever reason, you would rather head to Target to score these deals – maybe you have some free store credit or a gift card in the holster, they are at very close to the same price there right now with $99 in savings:
These deals land as the some of the best prices of the year, second to only the Prime Day offers where we saw all three configurations drop $120 for the first time since release in fall 2024.
While we have see these $100 price drops more than a few times since launch, we are talking about the most affordable point of entry into the current-generation iPad lineup that can support Apple Intelligence here, and the only model that’s going to deliver that ultra-manageable 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display experience. That, of course, joins the 12MP Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage, USB-C connectivity, Wi-Fi 6E, and compatibility with Apple Pencil Pro.
Amazon all-time lows across the M3 iPad Air lineup are back: Land $150 off most affordable configs from $449
Amazon is now once again offering its very best prices to date on the Wi-Fi-only M3 iPad Air models. This includes the most affordable 11-inch right through to the higher-end 1TB 13-inch at $150 off the list prices with deals starting from $449 shipped. Details below.
Apple’s latest M3 iPad Air lineup did see some price drops for Prime Day this year, and some notable offers at that. They all dropped $120 to deliver the best we had tracked at Amazon to date. However, shortly after that, nearer the beginning of August, Amazon took it up a notch to deliver $150 off the entire lineup and we are once again seeing these all-time low prices today.
While we did track a giant $360 price drop on the more pricey 1TB 11-inch Cell model last week, none of the more universally appealing configurations in the lower storage tiers, or just those without the $150 Cell upgrade have seen deals that deep.
The $150 off for the more popular configs are now at the ready again and you can browse through the deal pricing below:

Still live: Amazon knocked the M4 Mac mini down to $499 shipped
We are still tracking a number of notable discounts on the higher-end upgraded configurations of Apple’s latest M4 Mac mini you’ll find down below, most of which are particularly rare offers. But Amazon is stepping in this morning with a deal on the most affordable M4 Mac mini configuration down at $499 shipped.
The base model M4 Mac mini carries a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU alongside 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD at $599. It delivers some serious value for folks who just don’t need any more power than that, and now even more so with a $100 discount down to $499.
Today’s deal is the best price we have tracked in months on Amazon and lands on par with most of the deals we have seen this year. Back in late June it did go for $30 less than this, with a few very short-lived drops into the $488 – $495 range before that, but it’s hard to deny the value of landing a current-generation M4-equipped Mac at $499 either way.
Amazon has also dropped the price on the 16GB/512GB model down to $689 shipped from the regular $799 list price for $110 in savings – this is matching the lowest price we have tracked at Amazon on this config.
As mentioned above, this deal on the most affordable variant is also joining a host of discounts on higher-end Mac mini configurations courtesy of authorized dealer B&H right now – these are configurations you can’t even buy on Amazon and setups we don’t see on sale nearly as often:
