Apple Black Friday sale — 7 early deals I recommend

AirPods: was $129 now $99 @ Amazon
Best Buy has the Apple AirPods with standard/wired charging case on sale for $99. That's one of the best deals we've seen for Apple's entry-level buds. They feature Apple's H1 chip for fast wireless connectivity with Apple devices. Although they've been outshined by newer models, in our AirPods review we said they're a great pair of wireless earbuds that work seamlessly with iOS devices. They're just $20 shy of their all-time price low.

Apple Watch SE 1st gen (44mm): was $279 now $109 @ Walmart
An Apple Watch for less than $110? You bet! When we first reviewed the original Apple Watch SE, we found plenty to like, including reliable heart rate and fitness tracking, a responsive interface and a huge selection of apps. But the price felt a tad high. That's no longer the case, making this a fantastic entry point into the world of smartwatches for just about anyone. And it runs the latest watchOS 10 software. 

Apple AirPods Pro 2 (2022): was $249 now $189 @ Walmart
The AirPods Pro 2 pack Apple's H2 chip to provide 2x more noise cancellation than their predecessors. They also offer Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking for a more immersive audio experience. In our AirPods Pro 2 review, we said they take everything we loved about the original AirPods Pro to the next level.
