Amazon’s fall Prime Day sale has brought some nice discounts on Apple devices, from the AirPods Pro 2 to the Apple Watch SE to the latest MaxSafe charger.

Refreshingly, the sale runs until October 9, and you’ll need to subscribe to Prime to check out some of the deals.

  • Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) for $169 (MSRP $80 off): This is the lowest price for Apple’s noise-canceling wireless earbuds, which we consider a great choice for iOS users.

  • Apple AirPods Max for $395 ($154 off): That’s about as high as ever for Apple’s over-ear noise-cancellers, though this price only applies to the older Lightning-based model, not the new revision with USB-C. If you can live with the outdated charging port and somewhat bulky design, the older model still offers clean sound and excellent ANC.

  • Apple AirPods 4 for $119 ($10 off): This modest discount has been available for a few weeks now, but it’s still a highlight since Apple launched its new wireless earbuds only last month. We gave this pair an 88 review score, praising its improved fit, comfort and overall sound quality. However, this model does not have active noise cancellation or wireless charging.

  • Apple Watch SE (2nd gen, GPS) for $170 ($79 off): It’s a little long in the tooth, but the entry-level Apple Watch remains a great choice for first-time smartwatch buyers, so you can always live without the larger display and advanced health features of the more expensive series. 10. This is one of the lowest prices we’ve tracked for the 40mm model; big 44 mm variant Similarly $200 off.

  • Apple MacBook Air M2 (13-inch) for $749 ($250 off): It’s a generation old now, but the M2 MacBook Air offers the same benefits as the latest model, with a slightly faster chip, dual external monitor support, and improved Storage speed In the basic model.

  • Apple MacBook Air M3 (13-inch) for $849 ($250 off): If you’re willing to pay more for those upgrades, the latest and greatest MacBook Air is discounted by another $100.

  • Apple MacBook Air M3 (15-inch) for $1,044 ($255 off): The 15-inch Air is half-a-pound heavier than its 13-inch counterpart, but it has a more robust speaker system and might be worth the extra heft if you need more screen space.

  • Apple iPad (9th gen) for $199 ($130 off): This model is technically discontinued, and we’ve been seeing this discount for the past couple of months, but it reiterates that $199 is a great price for an iPad that’s still perfectly suited for casual media consumption. You’ll have to put up with thick bezels, an antiquated home button and 64GB of storage, but you’ll get the same clean software and extensive app library as (almost) any other Apple tablet.

  • Apple iPad Mini (6th Gen) for $350 ($149 off): To be clear, it’s a bad time to buy an iPad mini, just like Apple Expected to launch A long overdue update before the end of the year. But if you don’t care about owning the latest and just want a smaller iPad for (relatively) cheap, it’s $30 less than the typical street price of the 8.3-inch slate in the last few months.

  • Apple Pencil Pro for $97 ($32 off): This is the biggest drop to date for Apple’s top-end stylus; Before taking the plunge, make sure you own (or plan to buy) one of the latest iPad Airs or iPad Pros.
