Many prices are similar to what I saw at Best Buy during Black Friday and Cyber Monday of this year.Apple MacBook and Mac dealsApple MacBook Air 13” (M2)4.9-star average rating from 102 reviews at Best BuyIf you travel or work remotely, this is one of the best laptops for the price. It’s compact and lightweight, meaning it will never weigh down your bag or backpack as you go. It also gets up to 18 hours of battery life — more than enough to go without a charge for a couple of days, in my experience.Apple MacBook Air 15” (M2)4.9-star average rating from 654 reviews at Best BuyIf your laptop is your main workstation, and you deal with lots of large files, this is a deal to check out. It’s the 15-inch version of the MacBook Air with a whooping one terabyte of internal storage built-in — more than enough for photos, videos, games and anything else. It has a large, 15-inch display that’s well-suited to creative work, plus up to 18 hours of battery life.Apple Mac Mini (M2 Pro)4.8-star average rating from 229 reviews at Best BuyThis may be an older version of the Mac Mini, but it has Apple’s M2 Pro chip inside, which has more powerful CPU and GPU performance than most M2 and M3 MacBooks. It’s also tiny at 7.7-inches across, meaning it’s easy to fit onto almost any desk setup. It has plenty of ports on the back to plug in computer monitors, keyboards and other accessories.Apple iPad dealsApple iPad (10th Generation)4.9-star average rating from 16,345 reviews at Best BuyThe 10th generation iPad is a go-to tablet for multiple members of the NBC Select team. NBC Select commerce editor Cory Fernandez uses his iPad as a travel companion, watching movies and TV shows on flights. It also comes in four bright colors.Apple iPad (9th Generation)4.9-star average rating from 29,469 reviews at Best BuyThis is the lowest-priced iPad on the market. While it runs slower than other models, it is still perfectly suitable for basics like streaming TV, video chatting with friends and following cooking recipes.Apple iPad Air 11” (M2)4.9-star average rating from 600 reviews at Best BuyThis iPad is a good fit for creatives and professionals looking to use accessories like the Apple Pencil Pro or Apple Magic Keyboard to get work done. It has an anti-reflective, laminated screen with improved color depth and contrast compared to the 10th and 9th generation iPads.Apple AirPods dealsApple AirPods Pro 24.8-star average rating from 17,837 reviews at Best BuyiPhone owners: these are some of the best wireless earbuds you can buy. We’ve tested them on calls, commutes, flights, workouts and more — they consistently deliver excellent sound quality, noise-canceling and transparency modes. They have up to six hours of battery life alone and up to 30 hours with the charging case.Apple AirPods Max (Lightning)4.7-star average rating from 15,366 reviews at Best BuyApple recently released a USB-C version of these headphones, hence the discount on this older Lighting-port version. NBC Select editorial projects manager Rebecca Rodriguez has used these over-ear headphones for over two years — they are the best headphones she’s ever owned, but work best if you own other Apple devices.Apple Watch dealsApple Watch Series 104.8-star average rating from 184 reviews at Best BuyThis is the latest Apple Watch, and it’s one of our favorite smartwatches. The screen is brighter when viewed at off-angles, meaning it’s been easier for me to check the time and notifications at a glance, without directly turning the watch to face me. It has all the great features I loved from the Apple Watch Series 9, including the Double Tap gesture and Precision Finding. Beats dealsApple acquired Beats in 2014, and has sold the brand’s products in its stores since.Beats Studio Pro Headphones4.7-star average rating from 7,432 reviews at Best BuyThese are fully featured over ear headphones that cost much less than Apple’s AirPods Max yet still have active noise cancellation, transparency mode, Apple Spatial Audio and fast USB-C charging. They have up to 24 hours of battery life with noise cancelling on (more than AirPods Max), and up to 40 hours with it turned off.Beats Studio Buds4.3-star average rating from 10,189 reviews at Best BuyLooking for headphones under $100? Like Apple AirPods, the Beats Studio Buds are small, lightweight and easy to fit in a pocket or purse. They have noise-cancelling and transparency modes, plus a button on each earbud to answer calls, skip songs and more. They are compatible with both Apple and Android devices.Best Apple Shopping Event sales at Best BuyUp to 25% off select Apple accessoriesUp to 20% off select Apple Watch bandsUp to 20% off select Mac-compatible accessoriesUp to 40% off select external storage for Apple devicesWhy trust NBC Select?I’m a reporter for NBC Select who has covered deals and sales for over two years.
