Prime Day Apple deals 2022 — best sales right now
Save big on Apple devices this Prime Day
Prime Day Apple deals are among the most sought-after discounts during Prime Day. This year they promise to be extra enticing as there are many new Apple devices for Amazon to discount.

Likewise, their predecessors — the M1 MacBook Air and M1 MacBook Pro — are bound to undergo epic discounts if not from Amazon, then from competing retailers like Best Buy or B&H Photo.

AirPods
AirPods w/ Charging Case: was $159 now $89 @ Amazon

Apple Watch 3 (GPS/38mm): was $199 now $149 @ Walmart
It's hard to recommend the Apple Watch 3 these days given that it won't run the next version of watchOS. However, if you want the cheapest Apple Watch around — this is it. The waterproof watch offers heart rate notifications, workout detection, Apple Music, and Siri support for a low price.
MacBook Air and MacBook Pro
MacBook Air (M1): was $999 now $899 @ B&H Photo

Macs
Apple Mac Mini M1: was $699 now $659 @ Amazon
The Mac Mini marries great value with potent performance. It sports Apple's epic M1 chip, which smokes Intel's Core i3 and Core i5 processors in most tasks. With a small form factor, strong performance, and support for two large monitors. It features Apple's M1 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD.
iMac 21.5" (2020): was $1,099 now $799 @ Amazon

Apple TV
Apple TV 4K (2021): was $179 now $109 @ Amazon
The current-gen Apple TV supports high-frame rate HDR streaming as well as support for multiple users.
