    AirPods, Apple Pencil (USB-C), MacBook Air, AirTag 2, more 9to5Mac

    Alongside the ongoing pre-order discount on the new Apple TV 4K, Amazon has now brought back the 20% price drop on AirPods Pro 3 and is still offering Apple Pencil (USB-C) down at $69 (or even less). Today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is headlined by the lowest price ever for AirTag 2 and Apple’s least expensive M5 MacBook Air at $200 off with a FREE 70W charger upgrade. Just be sure to scope out the new Twelve South Airfly View that launched today, as well as its Airfly Drive CarPlay adapter that is now back in-stock, and this cool little gadget that can transform your previous-gen Apple Watch into a retro-inspired handheld device. 


    Amazon’s AirPods Pro 3 deal is back at 20% off

    We have had an extended run of deals on Apple’s best earbuds lately, and after jumping back up closer to full price yesterday, Amazon has decided to keep the ball rolling with a solid20% discount on AirPods Pro 3. 

    Amazon is now offering Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 down at $199.99 shipped. That’s actually $1 more than they were through last week, but we are still talking about a solid 20% discount here at nearly $50 off the list price. 

    With iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo now out in the wild, if you’re looking to side-step the newer and more entry-level AirPods 5 at $129 and $149 with the Wireless Charging Case, the higher-end and more feature-rich AirPods Pro 3 remain atop the lineup of Apple buds. Regularly $249, they are now at the ready on Amazon with a solid discount. 


    iPhone Duo users clearing out Apple Pencil (USB-C) at Apple Store, score one from $59 on Amazon instead

    The iPhone Duo is here and if you’re still looking to elevate the experience with Apple Pencil, the only compatible model is the USB-C variant and you can land one at Amazon down at $69 right now. More than a couple staffers have been reporting little to no stock availability at local Apple brick and mortar locations, so we just wanted to touch base to ensure folks know you can easily grab one at Amazon with relatively speedy delivery still and at a lower price – there are even Amazon Resale units at under $60 right now. 

    Amazon is offering Apple Pencil (USB-C) down at $69 shipped right now. While that is only $10 off list, and a price we have been tracking for quite some time, with the newfound popularity ushered in by iPhone Duo and stock scarcity at select Apple locations, this offer has become more enticing than ever for some. 

    iPhone Duo supports Apple Pencil with USB-C, “allowing users to take notes, sketch, or mark up documents on either display.”

    As we mentioned previously, you can also secure one for even less than this now sitting down $58.78 shipped. While stock appears to be low here, Amazon does seem to have received more since we last checked in so you can still score one of you’re quick

    Head over to this page, and select “Other sellers on Amazon” link below the Add to Cart button – this is where you’ll find the best quality Used: Like New option down at $58.78 shipped.

    Amazon’s 2026 Apple TV 4K pre-order discount is still live

    Unlike the new Apple HomeView, it looks like Amazon is actually going to be holding on to the early pre-order discount on the new Apple TV 4K for now. But you might want to get in there sooner than later before the delivery times slip even further. 

    As of the time of writing, Amazon is still delivering the brand new Apple TV 4K down at $289.99 shipped. 

    That’s clearly not a massive deal and you could just score the new Siri Remote for a fraction of the price to upgrade your existing Apple TV setup instead, but the light deal is indeed still live as of this morning. 

    The full price pre-order listing directly from Apple has slipped even further on our end, as it is now no longer able to deliver the new Apple TV 4K until the first week of December. 


    Apple’s least expensive M5 MacBook Air is $200 off with FREE 70W charger upgrade (Best price in months)

    While we are still tracking a solid$200price drop on Apple’s 24GB M5 MacBook Air over at Amazon, it is yet to bring back the $200 Prime Day discount on the most affordable model. B&H, however, is now offering a particularly compelling offer on Apple’s least expensive M5 MacBook Air – you’ll now find it at $200 off with a FREE 70W charger upgrade thrown in as well (the official Apple charger too). 

    B&H is now offering the 13-inch M5 MacBook Air with 26GB of RAM and the 512GB SSD down at $1,099 shipped. 

    This is a regularly $1,299 configuration at $50 less than Amazon is charging right now to deliver $200 in savings and a deal on par with the fall Prime Day offer we featured. 

    To sweeten the deal further, B&H is also throwing in the upgraded charger as well. If you were to configure this MacBook at Apple, you would get the choice to upgrade to the 70W Power Adapter for an additional $20 – B&H is throwing it in for FREE here and that’s why the listing carries a regular price at $1,319. 

    So not only is B&H matching Amazon’s best fall Prime Day offer on this configuration, but it is also adding in the faster charger for essentially free of charge – Amazon does not offer this option at all.


    The TechPod RePod has to be one of the more compelling ways to repurpose your old Apple Watch. For around $50 with the Amazon deals right now, these things effectively bring your Apple Watch back to life, transforming it into a functional and retro-inspired handheld. 

    While not all models are discounted on the brand’s Amazon storefront, they do all carry a $60 list and many of them have on page coupons to knock the price down to $50.99 shipped right now. You can also save an extra 5% if you purchase two of them. 

    There are RePod sizes to support just about all previous-generation Apple Watch models, going right back to Series 4, through the SE models, and right up through to Series 10 and 11. They might be one of, if not, the most interesting way to bring your old Apple wearable back to life I have seen yet.

    RePod might also be one of the more compelling gifts for the Apple Watch enthusiast in your life this year, alongside some cool new bands or something. 

    We have seen products like these previously, but the clean look, relatively affordable price tag, and aluminum build on the RePod has certainly caught my eye. 

    The RePod is made of a CNC-machined aluminum frame with a functional scroll wheel that mechanically turns your Apple Watch’s Digital Crown (for scrolling and volume adjustment in supported apps). 

    Once you pop your Apple Watch inside CNC-machined aluminum frame, you can use the functional scroll wheel to mechanically turn your Apple Watch’s Digital Crown (for scrolling and volume adjustment in supported apps). The touchscreen on the watch remains functional and there is a cutout on the back so you can charge the Watch up using the Apple charger without removing it from the metal case.

    Twelve South unveils next-gen Airfly View with built-in display

    Just after the reveal of its new AirFly Drive CarPlay and Android Auto wireless adapter for your ride, today Twelve South is ready to upgrade your audio experience in the air. Ready to connect directly to the in-flight entertainment system, the all-new Airfly View adds a built-in display to what was already the one of, if not, the best wireless audio transmitters for your wireless buds and headphones.  

    Twelve South unveils new Airfly View

    Anyone familiar with the previous Airfly transmitters is going to be right at home here again. A staple in packing lists and best of travel accessory guides for years now, Twelve South is bringing its Airfly into the next-generation with the same level of simplicity, but with a new built-in display so you can actually see what’s going on. 

    Airfly started with one narrow problem: wireless headphones, and the wired jacks still bolted into airplane seatbacks, gym treadmills, and older cars. It has been solving that simply ever since. Airfly View keeps the same simplicity and puts every step on screen.

    Airfly View is available starting today in Black and Coastal blue with an included international airline adapter and zippered hard-shell travel case at $79.99.


    It’s back: Popular new Airfly Drive CarPlay and Android Auto wireless adapter delivering as soon as this weekend

    Twelve South Airfly Drive CarPlay and Android Auto wireless adapter has been one of the more popular tech releases around here over the last month or so, and it’s back. Shipping times started to slip well into December on the popular black model, but Amazon is now listing both it and the white for delivery as soon as next week. 

    Today’s accessories and charging deals:


    Apple’s mid-range M6 Mac mini models now up to $150 off

    While we are still tracking a $120 price drop on the most affordable configuration, Amazon is now offering a straight up $150 off the mid-range 16GB/512GB model and has now dropped the price on the 24GB variant as well. 

    The mid-range model mentioned above is now down another $1 to land at the lowest price we have tracked since launch ($150 off). This one has been sitting at $950 since the fall Prime Day sales started up, but Amazon has just today brought back a notable deal on the upgraded 24GB config as well. 

    Amazon is now offering Apple’s 2026 M6 Mac mini with 24GB of RAM and the 512GB SSD down at $1,179 shipped. 

    This is a $1,299 config that, unlike the two others mentioned above, quickly jumped to full price shortly after the fall Prime Day event. It is now within $30 of of the lowest price we have tracked (and the only other discount since launch) to deliver to lowest price we can find online and a solid $120 off. 

    There is a chance we see this model return to the $1,149 low in the coming weeks as we move into Black Friday season, but we can’t say for sure. If you can hold out until late November, we recommend doing so, but if not this is a solid deal nonetheless.
