Apple's September Event is only a few days away. You might want to wait until the date itself to see details on any new devices. However, these sales from Amazon, Walmart and more are a great opportunity to make a saving and upgrade your phone, laptop, headphones or tablet.

Right now the 13-inch MacBook Air (M1/256GB) is $649 at Walmart ($50 off.) This is an older model, but it's one of the cheapest MacBook deals I've ever seen and is great value for money.

You can also get the AirPods Max for $399 at Amazon. This $150 discount brings Apple's premium headphones down to their lowest price ever. We think they're the best headphones for iPhone users due to their excellent sound quality, top-notch active noise canceling features and seamless pairing with Apple devices.

Below you'll find all my favorite Apple deals. For more sales, check out the deals I'd buy in Amazon's weekend sale.
