The official Week 3 Black Friday deals are now in full swing, with up $400 off MacBook models, the first notable discount on Apple Watch Series 11, and the ongoing AirPods 4 offer at the $85 all-time low. Stock is quickly dwindling on the M4 MacBook Air deals at $250 off, but we do now have all-time low pricing on the M5 MacBook Pro at up to nearly $150 off the list price, as well as Powerbeats Pro 2 at up to $138 off. All of that, alongside the lowest prices yet on select 2025 Apple Watch Ultra Alpine and Trail Loop models, awaits below.

Apple Watch Series 11 cell models just hit Amazon all-time lows at nearly $50 off

While we caught some deep deals on Apple Watch Series 10 as part of the early Black Friday festivities, this morning Amazon is kicking off week 3 with the best prices ever on the new Apple Watch Series 11 GPS + Cellular models at nearly $50 off in both the 42mm and 46mm sizes. Details await below.

While we have already spotted some $49 price dropson the 2025 Apple Watch SE 3, as well as $99 discounts on the Ultra 3 Apple just released in September, today’s deals mark the first notable chance to save on Apple Watch Series 11.

Outside of some very light launch deals, discounts on the Series 11 lineup have been slight at best. But this morning Amazon has knocked a solid $50 off select GPS + Cellular configurations to deliver new all-time lows and the best prices we have tracked to date:

All-time lows hit Apple’s 2025 Ultra Trail Loop designs at nearly 20% off

Apple’s 2025 Light Blue Alpine Loop with black finish hits Amazon all-time low pricing at nearly 15% off

Now even lower: Apple Pencil Pro hits one of its best prices ever at $63 via Amazon Resale (52% off list)

Update: This Amazon Resale deal has returned and at an even lower price: Grab an Apple Pencil Pro down at $62.65 shipped. Details below in the original post.

The official Apple Pencil Pro – Cupertino’s latest and greatest iPad writer – carries a $129 list price and almost never drops below $100 in brand new condition. However, we just caught a compelling opportunity to land one over at Amazon at just over $67 shipped. Details await below. 

Coming courtesy of the official Amazon Resale program, you’ll now find “Used: Like New” Apple Pencil Pro units sitting down at $67.39 shipped on Amazon.

That’s nearly 48% under the $129 list price and one of the lowest prices we have ever tracked from a reputable source. While I guess for some throwing down the extra $33 is worthwhile just to grab a brand new one, and understandably so, if you’re looking for the lowest price possible this Amazon Resale offer is a compelling one. 

This is also rated among the highest-quality Used” products Amazon Resale delivers, and comes “backed by Amazon’s 30-day return policy.”  

All of our products go through a quality check by us prior to being sold. We thoroughly test the functional and physical condition of each item and give the product a specific grade before selling it. We also inspect our products for missing accessories and packaging damage. Based on our quality check, each item will be assigned one of the four evaluations to describe its overall condition: “Like New”, “Very Good”, “Good”, and “Acceptable”.

Apple Pencil Pro has been available on Amazon and other retailers at $99 for a quite a while. So long and often you can make an argument that $99 is really the regular price for one at this point. That said, it will still run you $129 from Apple, and we haven’t seen it sold on Amazon for any less than $99 once all year long – the last time it dropped below that was ahead of Black Friday last year and it wasn’t anywhere near as low as we are tracking here today. 

Just as a quick reminder, Apple Pencil Pro is compatible with the new M5 iPad Pro machines as well as the following:

  • iPad Pro 13-inch (M4)
  • iPad Pro 11-inch (M4)
  • iPad Air 13-inch (M2 and M3)
  • iPad Air 11-inch (M2 and M3)
  • iPad mini (A17 Pro)

Heads-up: Best prices ever on Apple’s 2025 M4 MacBook Air selling out quick – $250 off, but not for much longer

Apple’s most affordable Space Black 16GB M5 MacBook Pro configs have dropped to new Amazon lows at nearly $150 off

The Week 3 Black Friday deals have now begun at some retailers while big-time early sales are set to end later today at Walmart and Best Buy, but we are either way now tracking the best prices ever on Apple’s latest M5 MacBook Pro. Amazon is now offering the two most affordable 16GB configurations with prices approaching $150 in savings.

Amazon got off to an early start, as expected, with the Apple’s M5 MacBook Pro offering $50 price drops near the end of October shortly after released. We specifically warned readers not to buy one at that time, but we are now looking at solid price drops with over $120 in savings on the most affordable model and nearly $150 off the 16GB/1TB model in Space Black – these are new Amazon all-time lows and the best deals we have tracked online for Apple’s only Mac carrying the new M5 chip:

Question: It is Black Friday, aren’t they still going to drop even lower?

Answer: Yes, maybe. 

Anything can and might very well drop lower as we approach Thanksgiving 2025 and the subsequent Black Friday weekend. We were targeting both of these two machines at $150 off for Black Friday this year and that might very well happen, but they are also already very close to that right now. 

Based on our extensive experience, and last year’s October M4 MacBook release, we expect both of these configurations to be $150 off for Black Friday – this is what happened last year and it wasn’t until Christmas Eve 2024 before we saw the most affordable M4 go for any better than that. If you’re looking to make sure you get one of these under the tree, the prices we have here today are quite respectable, even for this time of year – but they could, of course, go for less between now and then.

But for those looking towards the more affordable M4 MacBook Air, just about every model in the entire lineup is now sitting at the best, and very much Black Friday-worthy, price:

Most affordable Apple Watch Series 10 models hit all-time lows in early Black Friday sale at $150 off, deals from $249

Most affordable new Midnight Apple Watch SE 3 now live at the $200 Amazon all-time low, more

We caught our very first deal on Apple’s new Midnight 44mm Midnight SE 3 wearable the other day. It went completely out of stock before making a return yesterday – it is still live at the moment – and now the most affordable Midnight model in the new collection is live at its $199.99 all-time low.

Amazon is now offering the 40mm Apple Watch SE 3 in the Midnight colorway down at $199.99 shipped. Regularly $249, this is nearly $49 off and the best price we have ever tracked. 

While this one did drop to the same $200 we have here now at a few days ago, it almost immediately went out of stock and remained unavailable until this morning. Considering almost no one had a chance at this deal earlier in the week, today’s offer is effectively the first chance to score a notable price drop on the most affordable Midnight Apple Watch SE 3 – the most affordable 2025 Apple Watch – and a new Amazon all-time low.

This year’s new Apple Watch SE model is the most compelling model Apple has ever released if you ask me. It is, by and large, for just about anyone but the most hardcore users, effectively an Apple Watch Series 10 with less color options. It runs on the same S10 chip and finally supports an always-on display (a must-have for me) as well as double-tap and wrist-flick gesture support. It’s clearly not a Series-grade Apple Watch, but starting at $200 it’s awfully close and much more affordable – the most affordable Series 11 starts at $389 on Amazon.

Apple Watch SE 3 features:

  • HEALTH ESSENTIALS — Temperature sensing enables richer insights in the Vitals app and retrospective ovulation estimates. You’ll also get a daily sleep score, sleep apnea notifications, and be alerted if you have a high or low heart rate or an irregular rhythm.
  • GREAT BATTERY LIFE — Enjoy all-day, 18-hour battery life. Then charge up to twice as fast as SE 2 and get up to 8 hours of battery in just 15 minutes.
  • ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY — Now you can read the time and see the watch face without raising your wrist to wake the display.
  • A GREAT FITNESS PARTNER — SE 3 gives you a healthy number of ways to track your workouts. With real-time metrics and Workout Buddy powered by Apple Intelligence from your nearby iPhone, you’ll hit your goals like never before.
  • STAY CONNECTED — Send a text, take a call, listen to music and podcasts, use Siri, and get notifications. SE 3 (GPS) works with your iPhone or Wi-Fi to keep you connected.
