The Best Apple Deals You Can Shop Ahead of Amazon Prime Day

Like with its counterpart Black Friday, the window for Amazon's annual sale (twice annual if you count October's Prime Big Deal Days) keeps growing. Here we are, in mid-June, talking up the best deals to get before this summer's Prime Day, which runs July 8 through 11. For those paying attention, that's a whole extra day of shopping this year. We are probably a year or two away from the full-on transformation to Prime Week.

Anyway. We all know what the top-dollar items are each year. Say it with me folks: Apple products. The tech giant notorious for never running direct discounts always has some of its best and newest stuff discounted during Prime Day. This July is no exception, and for those eager beavers, the deals have already started early.

This year's best Apple deal has got to be our favorite earbuds, the AirPods 4, down to $99. But with the AirPods Pro 2 down to just $169 from $250, it's hard not to want to take the better deal. Other highlights include $150 off a $1,000 2025 MacBook Air and an 11th-generation (read: 2025) iPad for 300 bucks. The deals aren't plentiful yet, but there are already some big winners. Remember, this is just the beginning. But seriously, pick up some AirPods.
