Knock as much as $70 off the iPad Professional Magic Keyboard
I like the iPad Professional’s Magic Keyboard, however don’t love its price ticket. And it not often goes on sale for various bucks. So if you would like one (and it’s best to) in your M4 or M5 iPad, run to reap the benefits of this deal: Amazon is promoting the 11-inch mannequin for $249 ($50 off) and the 13-inch mannequin for $279 ($70 off).

If you happen to don’t have an Apple Watch or have an older mannequin, I like to recommend grabbing one.

Apple’s ANC earbuds are an excellent worth at their MSRP of $179. They had been an ideal deal at $119 throughout Amazon’s October Prime Day sale. However I’m merely blown away by Amazon’s Black Friday worth of just below $100. That’s not only a whole lot for an Apple product—it’s most likely the very best pair of earbuds you will get for this worth. So for those who want a pair, go seize one.
AirTags are beneath $16 for the primary time ever
A four-pack of AirTags has been on sale at Amazon for $65 for a few weeks (which is a superb worth), however they’ve knocked a few bucks off in the present day, bringing the entire to $63. That’s not an enormous financial savings, however it’s notable as a result of it means that is the primary time you will get an AirTag for lower than $16—$15.75 to be precise. AirTags are Apple’s most underrated product and I might suggest the bundle at its $99 common worth, however for this worth, you may need to get two units.
Apple Pencil USB-C is $49… possibly
I’ve been chasing this deal since Wednesday, and it retains coming and going. However for those who catch it on the proper time, the Apple Pencil USB-C, which is often $79, is all the way down to $49. It’s lacking a few of the bells and whistles that you simply’ll get with the Apple Pencil Professional—most notably, strain sensitivity and haptic suggestions—however it’s nonetheless an ideal iPad companion.
The most cost effective iPad is loopy low cost now
Hear, I like the iPad Professional and the Air, however pound for pound, the common-or-garden A16 iPad is simply nearly as good.

OLED, Face ID, and the M5 are nice and all, however for $274, you’ll have the ability to do all the identical stuff for 1 / 4 of the value. Go neglect FOMO and seize one, and also you received’t remorse it.
Walmart’s loopy AirPods Professional 2 deal continues to be accessible
Earlier this week, Walmart slashed the value of the AirPods Professional 2 to an unheard-of $139, a financial savings of $110 off the unique $249 MSRP. Sure, they’re the older era. However they’re additionally actually freaking good and have lots of what you’re getting within the AirPods Professional 3, from the H2 chip to noise cancellation, listening to safety, and stay translation. You received’t get a heart-rate sensor, but when you have already got an Apple Watch, there’s no want for it anyway. So save over $100 and seize this deal from Walmart earlier than it’s gone without end.

The brand new M5 MacBook Professional is simply $1,349
There’s only one Mac that has an M5 chip, and it solely arrived in October, so I didn’t anticipate to see any actual important financial savings on it. I used to be fallacious: Amazon is knocking $250 off all configurations, so you will get it as little as $1,349, the most affordable we’ve ever seen the entry-level Professional. The M5 chip impressed us after we examined it, and I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase one over an Air.
