We’ve rounded up the best Apple deals on Apple Watches, iPads, iPhones, and MacBooks, as well as some must-have Apple accessories to pair with your new device.
Many remember Apple for its leading role in the personal computer revolution (maybe you even used one of those beige-colored Macintosh PCs yourself), but in 2021, this brand is better-known as a maker of iconic mobile devices — which is not to say that the Mac lineup isn’t still loved by many, ourselves included. Apple gadgets have always sat on the more expensive end of the price spectrum, but if you’re a fan, you know they’re worth the cost. Just because you appreciate great design doesn’t mean you can’t also appreciate a good bargain, though, and to help you find some, we’ve collected all of the week’s best Apple deals and sales right here. The 2021 Black Friday deals and sales have already started dropping, too, with many retailers offering Black Friday price guarantees so you can be sure you’re getting the best deal. Because chips are in short supply right now, you should snatch up any early Black Friday Apple deals that catch your eye before stock dries up completely. Smartwatches never became the next smartphones, but the Apple Watch is the one smartwatch that has managed to enjoy widespread popularity. Apple updated its WatchOS-powered smart wearable last year, releasing the excellent — and pricey — new Apple Watch Series 6. The Apple Watch Series 6 refined everything we loved about previous models, bringing the design to near perfection with great software, a vibrant always-on display, and an excellent set of health and fitness-tracking features. We’ve also seen some fantastic discounts in the wake of the Series 6 release that bring it closer in price (or even cheaper than) the now-discontinued Series 5, making now a particularly perfect time to buy one if you’ve been on the fence and waiting for a deal. With the Apple Watch Series 7 launching in a few weeks, we can expect even better deals on the Series 6 soon. Apple just announced the new 9th-gen iPad 10.2, and aside from incremental hardware changes, the 2021 model isn’t really re-inventing the wheel. Yet given how good these tablets are and the value they provide, that’s just fine with us, and there’s never really a bad time to score the new 10.2-inch iPad at a discount as retailers offer them on sale pretty much year-round. When it was first on the market, our review team named the 7th-gen 10.
