Apple Deals

What we like: Our top pick for the best smartwatch for iPhone owners. Offers the best combination of style, health and fitness features, app selection, battery life, and price of any smartwatch for any platform. Large active screen area and more premium features than previous models.

Other things to know: Battery easily lasts for a day on a charge, but if you’re doing anything demanding you may find your watch in Power Reserve mode by the end of the day. Deal for the 45 mm face size, Aluminum Case, and Sport Band in Midnight or Starlight. Recurring discount.

What we like: Our top pick for the best three-in-one charging dock for an iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods. Easy to use and good-looking. Offers the fastest possible wireless charging speeds. Props up your phone and watch for easy viewing. Comes with its own wall charger.

Other things to know: DC plug is more difficult to replace than a USB-C charger. Has a large footprint. Stand is not height- or angle-adjustable. Two-year warranty. We've found Belkin's customer support to be reliable and responsive.

What we like: Our top iPad tablet pick. The cheapest iPad Apple sells. Ditches the Home button and offers more color options, faster processing power, better rear cameras, USB-C, and an improved FaceTime camera over the 9th-gen iPad, which has been discontinued. Retains the 10-hour battery life of its predecessors.

Other things to know: No headphone jack or home button. Swaps out Lightning port for USB-C. Supports only the 1st-generation Apple Pencil and its USB-C variant. The cheapest 68 GB option doesn’t provide much base storage but 256 GB is too much for most people.

What we like: Another good option from our guide to buying a MacBook. A higher-powered alternative to our MacBook pick, best suited for those who need the extra processing power. Comes with Apple's fantastic pro-level XDR Display (1,600-nit peak brightness), intended as a display for creating content rather than watching it.

Other things to know: About a pound heavier than the MacBook Air and quite a bit thicker. Comes with M3 Pro processor, 18 GB RAM, and 512 GB SSD. Matches the best price we've seen for this configuration.

What we like: Our pick for the best cloth-covered USB-C to Lightning cable. Can charge Lightning-powered devices at top speed. Made of a thick, double-braided Kevlar material that seems less prone to wear or snag than the more common nylon.

Other things to know: Lightning is an obsolete standard, making this cable even less worth splurging on. Five-year warranty. Deal price includes shipping.

What we like: Our recommendation for an inexpensive iPad stand that folds for easy carrying in a backpack or bag. Compatible with iPad Air, iPad Mini, Surface Pro, and various phone models. Complements a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Other things to know: Lowest price is for the grey model.

What we like: Our pick for the best Bluetooth tracker for iOS users leverages Apple’s huge network of devices to find lost goods. Impressively accurate. Replaceable coin battery. If you lose an AirTag (or an item containing or attached to one), you can use the Find My app to see its location or ask Siri to trigger an audible alert.

Other things to know: Doesn’t have any way to ring your phone. No built-in method of attaching to anything. The four-pack typically offers a better price per tracker—but if you only need one, this is a decent, though recurring, sale price.

What we like: Our budget pick from our guide to the best MacBooks. Still enough processing power, memory, and storage for most day-to-day work. Approximately 14-hour battery life. Lightweight with solid construction, a comfortable keyboard, and industry-leading customer support.

Other things to know: M1 processor is starting to show its age after three years. Comes with 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, 13.3-inch Retina display, one 3.5mm jack, and two Thunderbolt 3 ports.

What we like: Our top pick for the best stylus for drawing on higher-end iPads. Offers best-in-class accuracy and speed. Features pressure sensitivity along with tilt recognition and palm rejection. Charges magnetically through your iPad. Offers a convenient double-tapping feature.

Other things to know: Only compatible with iPads that have USB-C ports (and not the most recent 10th generation iPad); doesn’t work with older iPads. 

What we like: Our pick for an iPad stylus that is better for note-taking than drawing. A snap to set up, it writes smoothly, and its palm rejection works well. Seven hours of battery life. Plus, it works with every iPad made after 2018.

Other things to know: Lacks pressure sensitivity, which is important for drawing and painting. Charges via USB-C, but doesn't come with a cable.
