Bây giờ là thời điểm tốt nhất để mua các sản phẩm Apple #AppleSale
Apple mang lại sự kết hợp ấn tượng giữa thiết kế đẹp mắt và các tính năng thân thiện với người dùng trong các thiết bị của mình, từ chiếc iPhone 16 mới đến chiếc iPad Pro mạnh mẽ và chiếc MacBook Pro được yêu thích của biên tập viên. Mặc dù đây là những sản phẩm tốt nhất khi nói đến sự tích hợp mượt mà giữa phần cứng và phần mềm, chúng không phải là rẻ. Nhưng với một chút kế hoạch và kiên nhẫn, bạn có thể mua được một thiết bị Apple với giảm giá, vì chúng thường xuất hiện trên thị trường vào một số thời điểm trong năm. Ví dụ, trong suốt Tháng Deal Lớn trước đó, chiếc Apple Watch Series 10 mới phát hành đã được giảm giá 25 đô la.
Để có giá trị tốt nhất về các sản phẩm Apple, bạn nên đợi đến Prime Day hoặc Black Friday. Những sự kiện này thường mang lại những ưu đãi tốt nhất cho mọi thứ từ AirPods, iPads, Apple Watches và MacBooks, đôi khi giúp bạn tiết kiệm hàng trăm đô la. Bạn có thể tìm thấy các ưu đãi nhỏ hơn – giữa 5-10% – suốt cả năm. Nhưng các ưu đãi quan trọng từ 10-25% hoặc hơn thường xảy ra trong những “ngày mua sắm” quan trọng và sau khi sản phẩm mới được ra mắt. #PrimeDay #BlackFriday

Apple offers a trademark impressive blend of elegant design and user-friendly features in its devices, from the new iPhone 16 to the powerful iPad Pro and the editor-favorite MacBook Pro. While these are among the best when it comes to seamless integration between hardware and software, they’re not exactly cheap. But with some planning and patience, you can snag an Apple device at a discount, as we typically see its gadgets go on sale at certain times of the year. For instance, during Prime Big Deal Days earlier this month, the just-released Apple Watch Series 10 was already $25 off.
For the best value on Apple products, it’s a good idea to wait until Prime Day or Black Friday. These events generally offer the best discounts on everything from the AirPods, iPads, Apple Watches, and MacBooks, sometimes saving you hundreds of dollars. Yeah, you can find more modest deals — between 5-10% off — throughout the year. But the significant deals of 10-25% off (or more) typically occur during those major “shopping holidays” and after new product releases. Here’s how you can best go about saving on new and old Apple gear.
Shop Older Apple Products (After the Latest Releases)
Apple has a fairly predictable annual release schedule. For instance, for the past ten years, Apple has released new iPhone and Apple Watch models at the beginning of fall. If you’re in the market for a new smartphone, this is the perfect time to take advantage of carrier promotions, which can subsidize the cost of a new iPhone by hundreds of dollars. For instance, AT&T is offering the iPhone 16 Pro for as low as $0 per month if you meet the right criteria, like if you have a suitable device to trade in and are enrolled in the provider’s unlimited plan.
More importantly, the release of new Apple products generally results in retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart dropping the price of older models. A few years ago, I saved $400 on a MacBook Pro with M1 chip after Apple introduced upgraded models. Even though the configuration I got was by then a year old, the laptop has held up admirably for work and play, proving that the average user doesn’t always need the latest and greatest.
If you don’t mind skipping out on a few new features, this strategy of waiting for the piggyback sales that follow the annual debuts is solid. New Apple releases, particularly Apple Watches and laptops, are typically iterative, so you don’t miss out on much by being a generation (or two) behind. Pretty much anything in Apple’s product lineup that’s 12-24 months old, including Macs, iPad Pros, and iPhones, should hold up for several years despite being “outdated.”
Wait For Prime Day and Black Friday
We’ve been covering Prime Day and Black Friday for years, and we’ve found that these events consistently feature the best deals on both new and old Apple products. During this fall’s Prime Big Deal Days, for example, Amazon dropped the price of the AirPods Max by 27%, while the MacBook Air with M3 chip was a couple hundred dollars off. We also spotted discounts on the AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) and the iPad Mini (6th Generation).
Last year during Black Friday, the Apple Watch Series 9, which at the time was only a few months old, was already discounted to $329 — a $70 drop. We saw even steeper sales on the older Apple Watch Series 8, AirPods, and iPad, including the iPad Mini and iPad Pro. It’s not uncommon to also find savings on the iMac, Studio Display, and Apple accessories, including wall chargers, EarPods, and cables.
Be on the Lookout for Smaller Discounts Throughout the Year
While you can typically find the best savings on Apple products during major events and shortly after new product releases, there are smaller sales throughout the year. The price of the AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) have been hovering around $189 at Amazon all year, though we saw them as cheap as $168 during Prime Day over the summer. If you were to buy them directly from Apple, you’d pay $249.
Similar deals occasionally crop up at various times, which we try to highlight in our weekly coverage of the best sales and deals.
Speaking of, discounts directly through the Apple Store are rare, though students can save via its Education Store portal. You can also trade in your older Apple devices for credit toward a new purchase. However, the trade-in value depends on the older device’s model and condition.
Apple Products to Check Out
As luck would have it, we’re coming up on another of those deal windows right now. Apple introduced the iPhone 16 Series, Apple Watch Series 10 Series, and the AirPods 4 with active noise cancelation last month. These devices represent the latest in the brand’s lineup of premium devices, with new features powered by AI, a Camera Control button in the iPhone, and a 30% larger screen in the Apple Watch. If you didn’t catch them on sale during Prime Big Deal Days, there’s a good chance you can find them when Black Friday kicks off at the end of November.
The 16 Pro features a faster processor, larger display, and a more powerful triple-camera setup than its predecessor. If you take many pictures, the camera control button and picture quality alone make it worth the upgrade, writes senior tech editor Stefan Vazharov. You can read more about the iPhone 16 Pro in our full review.
The Apple Watch Series 10 features a thinner design and 30% larger display than the Series 9. It has a new S10 chip, voice isolation for clearer calls, and a depth gauge and water temperature sensor. Additionally, Apple packed in new sleep apnea-detection features, using the Watch’s accelerometer to monitor disturbances while you sleep.
The AirPods 4 bring active noise cancelation to the open-ear design. Not only that, but Apple tweaked the contour of the earbuds, making them more comfortable. As an AirPods 3 owner, I loved this new design and think the ANC does a respectable job of blocking out ambient noise. Read Vazharov’s full review to see why the 4 is a worthy addition to Apple’s AirPods lineup.
The newest iPad Pro is the most significant revamp since it debuted in 2018. It boasts a beautiful OLED display, a powerful M4 chip, and an thin design. Apple has “perfected the traditional tablet with the latest iPad Pro…” Vazharov says in his review. “Its standout design and build, class-leading hardware, supreme performance, and industry-leading platform experience are second to none…”
The latest MacBook Air features the same great ultraportable design of the previous version. The difference this year is the new M3 chip, which makes the computer more powerful. That being one of the relatively few upgrades, Vazharov says in his review that it’s still the best new laptop for the money and a no-brainer upgrade option for anyone with an M1-equipped laptop or older.
The Pro is the highest end MacBook and the ideal choice for content creators thanks to the speed and efficiency chops of the M3 Pro and M3 Max processors. That helps the laptop achieve an impressive 22 hours of battery life, too. If you or someone you know prioritizes power and performance to edit photos, videos, or graphics, this is the machine to get.
