Amazon’s Prime Day sale has pushed discounts across several Apple product lines, including AirPods, Apple Watches, Beats audio gear and the latest base iPad. The offers matter for Apple buyers because The Verge reports some prices are at or near the lowest levels it has tracked during the sale.
The Verge’s Sheena Vasani reported that several Apple deals began before Prime Day formally arrived and remain spread across Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy and Target. The guide says prices have been changing quickly, and at least one record-low AirPods Pro 3 offer has already sold out.
AirPods and Beats lead the audio deals
The AirPods Pro 3 are listed at $180 at Amazon and Best Buy, according to The Verge. Walmart recently offered them for $169, described by The Verge as a record low, but that price was no longer available in the guide.
The Verge says the AirPods Pro 3 include improved noise cancellation, stronger bass and built-in heart sensors that work with Apple’s Fitness app across more than 50 workout types. The standard AirPods 4 are on sale for $99 at Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy, while the AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation and wireless charging are listed at $148.99 at the same retailers.
Apple’s over-ear AirPods Max 2 are available for $399 at Amazon and Walmart, down from $549, according to The Verge. The guide says the newer model keeps the premium design of the original and adds better sound, stronger noise cancellation and Apple’s H2 chip for features including live translation.
Beats products are also heavily discounted. The Verge lists the Beats Studio Pro at $132 at Amazon, $139 at Walmart and $150 at Best Buy, compared with a $350 list price. It also reports Beats Solo 4 at $99.95 at Amazon and Walmart, Beats Studio Buds Plus at $89.95 at Amazon, Best Buy and Target, Beats Powerbeats Fit at $159.95 at Amazon and Best Buy, and Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 at $179.95 at Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart.
Apple Watch and iPad prices fall
The Apple Watch Series 11 has dropped to $279 at Amazon for the 42mm GPS model, down from $399, according to The Verge. The guide calls it a new low and says the Series 11 adds a more durable display, a 5G modem on cellular versions and slightly better battery life than its predecessor.
The Apple Watch SE 3 is also discounted. The Verge lists the 40mm GPS model at $199 at Amazon and $219 at Walmart.
For tablet shoppers, the 2025 iPad is priced at $299 for the 128GB Wi-Fi model at both Amazon and Walmart, according to The Verge. The guide identifies it as one of the featured Apple deals during the Prime Day sale.
Retailer availability may shift
The Verge says it will keep updating its Prime Day Apple deal guide as offers change. Its report also notes that Vox Media may earn a commission when readers buy through Verge links.
