Alongside ongoing price drops delivering the best deals of the year on AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4, not to mention an ongoing $180 price drop on the 24GB M4 MacBook Air, we have a fresh batch of deals to scope out today as well. Alongside iPad mini 7 models at $100 off, we spotted a big-time $269 price drop on black Apple Watch Ultra 2 units in refurbished condition – this deal might not last for much longer. Those offers join a $400 price drop on the black titanium 1TB iPhone 16 Pro, the very first deal on Anker’s new 14-in-1 Prime Thunderbolt 5 Docking Station, and much more. Scope it all out down below.
Most affordable iPad mini 7 just dropped back to Amazon low at $399 ($100 off), more
The Apple deals are already flying this morning before we head into the weekend, and next up is the latest iPad mini 7 lineup. Alongside deals on AirPods Pro 2, AirPods 4, and iPad A16 (and much more right here), Amazon has once again brought back its all-time low pricing across Apple’s ultra-compact series 7 iPad mini lineup with deals starting from $399 shipped.
While there are a few colors in the lineup yet to drop back to Amazon lows this morning, just about everything is now $100 off. The regularly $499 128GB model is $399, the $599 mid-range 256GB has fallen to $499, and the maxed-out 512GBvariant has also dropped $100 to land at $699 shipped.
These deals are also matching the lowest prices we have tracked on Amazon to date, outside of a couple outlier configurations that have seen very short-lived dips a touch lower – the 256GB variant has fallen to $489, for example. It is also worth noting that Costco members were privy to as much as $144 in savings on select upgraded configs, but those deals have all come and gone (at the time of writing).
For me, and I think most folks, it is really all about the entry-level model here. The upgraded storage capacity is always a welcomed addition, but most users aren’t leveraging a mini as a work station, so you might as well save the cash and just offload data through the USB-C port, right? Perhaps that’s just me, but either way the deals are flying today and likely though the weekend on Apple’s latest iPad mini 7 – the most affordable model in the current-generation lineup compatible with Apple Intelligence.
Apple’s unlocked black titanium 1TB iPhone 16 Pro is $400 off at Amazon (Renewed Premium)
This one might not stick around for very long – it has been going in and out of stock for a couple weeks – but Amazon is once again offering Renewed Premium 1TB iPhone 16 Pro units at $1,099 shipped. This is an unlocked current-generation Apple handset in the best renewed condition Amazon offers at $400 under the price of buying a new one from Apple – this model costs $1,499 brand new.
While we have seen this particular black titanium model go for less from Amazon, we are only talking about a few dollars difference here. Since the last time we posted this $1,099 offer, stock has been unreliable at best, often times flipping back over to third-party sellers – it is, as of right now, being sold directly from Amazon.
The iPhone 17, or whatever it might be called is on the horizon now, but that in many ways is always the case when buying an iPhone. If you’re looking to score a sweet deal on a heavily upgraded model of what is largely considered to be the best phone on the planet, these official Amazon Renewed Premium offers are easily some of the best deals out there – we almost never track legitimate price drops on brand new unlocked current-gen iPhones.
