With a built-in LED light, the Waloo Mini LED Base Bluetooth Speaker is perfect for kids. It’s compact, sturdy and extremely affordable. And its soft LEDs sync to the rhythm of the music being played music.

That makes it perfect for pumping up playtime. But it’s also great for bedtime: Soothing lullabies can be accompanied by gentle lights to help a little one drift off to sleep. As mentioned, the price on this speaker won’t keep anyone up, either. Regularly $34, you can get the Waloo Mini LED Base Bluetooth Speaker for just $19.99.

If you or someone you know could use a smaller iPad, and you missed Amazon Prime Day, now’s the time to get the lowest-ever prices on iPad mini 6 at the mega retail site. My sister-in-law, for example, wishes she could grab something no bigger than her old, basic iPad, with its 9.7-inch screen. iPad mini 6’s 8.3-inch screen might just work for her.

If your business can’t afford a marketing team, it’s up to you to become an expert. From social media to search engine optimization, you can learn digital marketing on your own with the information-packed courses in the 2024 Meta Marketing Bundle.

You don’t need a brand-new Apple Watch if the only issue is sucky battery life. What you do need is this Apple Watch keychain charger, and a two-pack costs just $32.97. That’s a 36% discount off the regular price of $51.98, and it beats Amazon’s price on the same Apple Watch accessory.

It’s that time of year again — back to school time. So the person who spends all your money — you and/or your beloved child — needs expensive new gadgets. Good thing Amazon offers its typical iPad 10 back-to-school deal — $299 ($50 off). And you can pick any model of Apple’s basic tablet, actually, with or without cellular coverage and up to 256GB of storage. They’re all $50 off. Click on the links below to snag these deals.

Looking for a sleek and reliable Apple laptop that won’t break the bank? You’re in luck, because we have a deal on a grade-A refurbished 13.3-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar from 2016. Yes, it’s on Apple’s vintage list, but it’s only $399.99.

Apparently now’s the time to upgrade to a powerful 16-inch MacBook Pro with an M3 Pro or M3 Max chip. Major retailers Amazon and Best Buy currently offer the same big-time deals on the killer laptops — $500 off. And it doesn’t matter what set of memory and storage specifications you go for, each machine is five Benjamins cheaper than normal.

Love your laptop but hate its small screen? You can easily triple your screen real estate on the go with the super-portable Maxfree S2 14-inch triple monitor for laptops.

Artificial intelligence is a versatile tool, but it takes skills to use ChatGPT and AI services for more than receiving a basic answer to a basic prompt. If you want to study the fundamentals of ChatGPT, review effective AI art tools, learn to use AI to boost your productivity, and find out how it can help you professionally, check out the 2024 ChatGPT and AI Super Bundle.

This pack of four classes includes 4.5 hours of video lectures and study guides that will get you acquainted with common AI tools. Learn AI with this educational bundle while it’s on sale for $29.99, marked down from $341.

If you buy enough stuff on the internet, you cultivate a healthy skepticism when deals sound too good to be true. That’s especially true when it comes to name-brand tech — like, for instance, when you see Beats headphones on sale.

Audio gear from Beats (a company Apple acquired for $3 billion a decade ago) has been popular for so long that third-party sellers have made a cottage industry out of Beats knockoffs.

But there’s nothing like the real thing, and Cult of Mac Deals has limited stock of authentic Beats Studio Pro headphones for just $179.99. That price is almost half off the MSRP of $349. And that discount is possible because these Beats headphones, released in 2023, are “new open box” inventory.

Best Buy just launched its Great Summer Sale with a variety of Apple deals — including up to $600 off M2 iPad Pro models. Now that M4 iPad Pro has been out a while, they must be clearing out their inventory of the older-but-still-great tablet.

Need a PC for work or play? This open-box HP Pavilion looks and works like brand-new, but definitely doesn’t come with a brand-new price tag. It’s also distinctive-looking, with a snow-white case that sets it apart from the boring black, gray and beige computing crowd.

It’s not as colorful as an iMac, naturally, and it doesn’t come with a monitor. But it also won’t set you back more than a grand like the iMac will (even at record-low sale prices). For a solid PC on the cheap, grab an HP Pavilion desktop computer for just $349.99.

You know the school year approaches when big retailers start slashing prices on iMac, a top pick for students. Currently, Amazon offers what appear to be a return to the lowest prices we’ve seen on the 2023 edition of the all-in-one desktop machine with M3 chip. And B&H Photo follows suit on one of the models. See below and get ready for class with a powerful new machine.

Apple’s vaunted AirPods Max noise-canceling over-ear headphones list for a wallet-bruising $549. They’re sometimes discounted a bit, but not usually like today’s deal on Amazon: $382.70, or 30% off. But it looks like you have to get the pink ones to grab the best deal. Or you could find lesser discounts on other colors, or even opt for the still-deeply-discounted Beats Studio Pro.

PC deals alert! While we’re firmly on Team Apple, it’s hard to suggest that PCs don’t hold their own, especially in terms of processing power versus price. Whether you’re an Apple fan who relies on a PC to play games more effortlessly or a professional who wants to ensure their work device is compatible with PCs at the office, we have a few PC deals that might give your Mac a run for its money.

Amazon Prime Day officially ran July 16 and 17, but it’s not over yet, as Amazon extended many big bargains on Apple products. Tons of goods from Apple and others are discounted. See our selection of the best deals on AirPods (and Apple subsidiary Beats), AirTags, Apple Watch, iPads, MacBooks, Mac mini and more below. Return to this page for updates (and beware that deals can change suddenly with supply fluctuations, so you may click through to find updated pricing or sold-out items in some cases).

UPDATE: Amazon extended a host of Prime Day deals on Apple products into Thursday and Friday and even into Saturday, so you can still shop many of the items below!  Items with full strikethroughs represent deals no longer available.

Learning to edit video can be exciting because of all the tools available to you. However, it also can be daunting for beginners. You could trial-and error your way through the basics with apps like After Effects and Davinci Resolve, or you could get a little help from the pros with this video editing training bundle.

The 2024 Video Editing Master Class Bundle is a collection of guides for some of the biggest video editing apps around. It covers Adobe After Effects, Canva, Davinci Resolve, CapCut and Filmora. And it’s on sale right now: You can get the whole thing while it’s marked down to just $50.

If you’re not yet all in on USB-C, the Waloo Portable Foldable Charging Dock is a great way to keep your iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods topped off at home or on the road. The compact multi-charger comes with two built-in Lightning connectors and an Apple Watch charging puck. It’s a little bigger than your iPhone, folds flat for easy transport, and costs a shockingly low $14.99.

FolderFort is an affordable alternative to Google Drive. And with this limited-time deal, this cloud storage service is even easier on your wallet. Right now, you can get 1TB of cloud storage with a lifetime FolderFort subscription for just $69.97 (regularly $251.64).

Unlike Google Drive, with FolderFort, you only pay once, and you’re set for life. And when it comes to pricing, there’s no comparison. Google Drive charges nearly half that much per year, for one-fifth the storage. And Apple One bundles — which admittedly add in things like Apple TV+ and Apple Music — cost even more.

It takes a lot more than wanting to be Billy Joel to become a piano player. You need passion, time, motivation and an excellent instructor (and, uh, a piano). But traditional piano lessons might not fit into your schedule. Plus, they can get expensive if you’re serious about learning. Luckily, if you buy a piano lesson app like Skoove, you can learn how to play piano by yourself.

Skoove lets you practice with hands-on piano lessons and AI software that listens to your playing. Get all this and more in a lifetime subscription for only $120 (regularly $300). That’s the lowest price found on the web! But you must use code SAVENOW by July 21 to get this price.

Whether you want to get more from your travels or boost your career opportunities, speaking an additional language is one of the most rewarding ways to do it. And the most convenient way to learn? With an award-winning language-learning app like Babbel.

The Babbel app teaches you a new language with short daily lessons that take only 10 or 15 minutes that you can take on your iPhone or Mac. Right now, you can grab a lifetime subscription to every single language on the app for only $139.97 (regularly $599). That’s a 76% discount on this incredible software, but this price drop only lasts until July 17.
