Deals: M5 iPad Pro up to $287 off, M5 MacBook Pro $250 less than new entry config, iPad Air $250 off, more

Today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is headlined by M5 iPad Pro up to $150 off at Amazon, but we do have a chance to land the most affordable 13-inch at up to $287 off right now as well. And while Apple just raised the entry price on M5 MacBook Pro, you can score the most affordable 512GB model at $250 less alongside as much as $250 off M3 iPad Air models ahead of the M4 launch, and a rare chance to score black Apple Woven USB-C Cables from $7.50 each. All of that and the now live Apple 2026 Spring Collection accessories await below.

M4 iPad Air is here, but M3 models are up to $250 off right now

The new M4 iPad Air has been announced with some arguably minor upgrades, deals across the Wi-Fi Cell M3 lineup are flying now, and we have a couple more discounts to highlight. Stock on the more affordable Wi-Fi only M3 iPad Air has been dwindling quickly over the last week or more, but we just spotted a chance to score some of the lowest prices on the least pricey 13-inch models at Amazon starting from $649 shipped512GB model is still carrying a deep $250 price drop too.

Again there are plenty of deals across both the 11-inch and 13-inch Cell models with at least $150 in savings – select models are even $250 off still:

M3 iPad Air 11-inch

M3 iPad Air 13-inch

***Note: this Gray 512GB model is still seeing a deep $250 price drop right now at Amazon.

However, stock at the less pricey Wi-Fi only variants has been hard to come by at a good price lately, and, frankly, still is. But Amazon is now offering the base model 13-inch M3 iPad Air down at $649 shipped, That’s $150 off the $799 list price and on par with the deals we have tracked on this model during Black Friday last year. 

Apple just raised the entry price on M5 MacBook Pro, score the most affordable model at $250 less right now

Alongside today’s reveal of the all-new M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook machines, Apple also quietly announced that it will no longer be selling M5 MacBook Pro with 512GB of storage – it will now start at 1TB. That means the starting price of the most affordable M5 MacBook Pro just went up to $1,699, and it also potentially delivers some added value to the 512GB M5 MacBook Pro you can still score right now at $1,449

The 512GB configuration for the base model and most affordable M5 MacBook Pro is already gone from the Apple site, and there’s no telling how much stock is left at retailers like Amazon and others. 

The 16GB M5 MacBook Pro with 512GB of storage Apple no longer sells carried a $1,599 list price – $100 less than the new starter price. However, over at Amazon right now you’ll find this model sitting down at $1,449 shipped. That’s $150 off the original list price and $250 less than the new entry point. 

The only times we have seen this 512GB variant go for any less than this was during Black Friday 2025 and there’s no telling what might happen with stock as Apple pushes the new 1TB entry model onto store shelves – the M5 Pro and M5 Max pre-orders begin tomorrow 

There is very much a chance we see the new 1TB M5 MacBook Pro go $200 off or even more than that, but chances are it won’t be until much later this year before we see it hitting the same prices as the 512GB model is today, if at all. We can’t know for sure of course, but you’re looking at summer Prime Day at the earliest and Black Friday 2026 as the most likely if we had to venture an educated guess. 

For all of the details on today’s new Apple reveals, head straight over to 9to5Mac or scope out some highlights below:

M5 iPad Pro up to $150 off at Amazon, but the most affordable 13-inch is $287 off right now (Open-box, Apple warranty)

The M4 iPad Air is set go up for pre-order tomorrow morning, but we have some deals to scope out on the latest M5 iPad Pro for folks looking to go pro-grade in 2026. We are looking at $150 off some of the mid-tier storage configurations at Amazon right now, but we also happen to spot one of the more compelling deals yet on the most affordable 13-inch offering at up to $287 off the list price. Details below. 

M5 iPad Pro 11-inch:

M5 iPad Pro 13-inch:

As you can see in the list above, pricing on brand new condition models are sort of all over the place. You’ll find a notable $150 price drop on the 1TB 11-inch model as well as the 13-incher, but we wanted to highlight an open-box offer at Best Buy today as well:

It is now offering “excellent” condition 13-inch 256GB models down at $1,011.99 shipped. This regularly $1,299 config is sitting down at $1,199 in brand new condition at Amazon where it has never sold for less than $1,149, or $150 off. 

However, with the open-box option that ships with a 1-year Apple, warranty you’re looking at $287 off, or much closer to $300 off the list price and best deals we can find from a reputable source in this condition.

Amazon has all Apple Watch Series 11 cell models at $100 off right now, more from $299

Alongside this week’s new iPad and iPhone release schedule (there’s still more to come), Amazon has decided to drop the price on the latest AirPods 4 with ANC by 35% and knock $100 off just about every Apple Watch Series 11 model it carries. This includes all of the base GPS-only variants, but you’ll also find the same deals landing across the 42mm and 46mm GPS + Cell models as well. 

Alongside the $100 discounts on the base variants starting from $299 shipped right now, the most affordable aluminum case GPS + Cell models in both sizes are also seeing the same price drops – this incudes all four case colors of each as well:

For those looking towards Apple’s higher-end titanium case GPS + Cell models, the deals are live there as well. We have seen some of this configurations go for even less than this in one-off sale events on select colors and the like, but all of them are $100 off right now:

These deals are all, of course, just for folks looking to land one of the more upgraded Series 11 configs as all of the base variants are marked down right now and at significantly lower price points:
