Deals: M4 Mac mini $491 all-time low, Powerbeats Pro 2, M4 Pro MacBook Pro up to $400 off, iPad mini $399, more

It’s a busy day in Apple deals. Joining the ongoing price drops on , we are now tracking a new all-time low on the most affordable alongside the best prices to date on a number of configs at up to . Those offers join the first chance to save on brand-new (or less if you go open-box) and the return of all-time low pricing on Apple’s latest lineup at with deals from . All of that and more awaits below in today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break .

Amazon isn’t playing around this morning with the Mac deals – it just dropped several to the best price ever and now’s the M4 Mac mini’s turn. Over this past weekend we saw some of the upgraded configs drop in price, but we just spotted the – this is the lowest price we have ever tracked online.

Apple’s M4 Mac mini lineup starts with the 16GB model that boasts a 256GB SSD and carries a list price at $599. It dropped to $514 yesterday but is now down even lower than that for the best we can find.

Previous to today, the best deal we had ever tracked on Amazon for this configuration was $499, or $100 off the going rate. And considering how affordable (at least my Apple standards) this machine already was after getting the 16GB treatment, scoring one at $100 is no joke. But now, we are looking at over to deliver a new Amazon all-time low.

You’ll find the updated pricing across the lineup down below – the 24GB/512GB model has now jumped up in price (we recommend waiting for a lower number on that one), but the most affordable variant and the M4 Pro are now at more than competitive lists.

We spotted some notable price drops on Apple’s this past weekend after pricing remained mostly stagnant through April. But Amazon has decided to get particularly aggressive this morning, knocking those deal prices down even lower across several different models including the most affordable base that is now starting down at it with the Space Black variant sitting . Details below.

This is a regularly $1,599 configuration that, previous to the last couple days, had never dropped below $1,390 at Amazon. With today’s deal, you’re looking at $227 in savings and a new Amazon all-time low – the silver model dropped to $1,385 this past weekend but has since sold out.

The same situation has now also hit some of the upgraded models on the lineup, including both the elevated M4 varaints and the M4 Pro machines as well:

  • 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro 16GB/512GB | All-time low
  • 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro 16GB/1TB | All-time low
  • 14-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro 24GB/512GB
  • 14-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB | All-time low
  • 16-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB | All-time low
  • 16-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro 48GB/1TB | All-time low

You’re looking at the best Amazon prices ever on the most affordable 14-inch models, while the least pricey M4 Pro variant is now within $8 of the frankly wild doorbuster deal we featured late last year for a day. We have over $400 in savings the higher-end 16GB variants as well. Considering these machines just released in late October 2024, and we are still several months at best away from a on Apple’s pro-grade laptops, it’s hard to imagine it getting all that much better than this anytime soon.

Alongside the ongoing across the latest lineup, Amazon has now brought back its all-time low pricing on the most affordable, latest-generation . Regularly $499, you can now land all four colors on Amazon to match our previous mention and the lowest we have tracked to date.

Not only are we also seeing the Wi-Fi + Cell models of the entry-level 128GB model , dropping from the regular $649 , but the $100 discounts are also hitting the rest of the lineup, including the 256GB and 512GB variants.

While Apple has unleashed its new 11-inch entry-level iPad since the latest mini arrived back in October, the mini is the most affordable model in the current-generation lineup that can support Apple Intelligence. The new 11-inch comes packed with the A16 chip and, while a wonderful casual machine considering you can all-time low right now, the latest mini is a more powerful Apple tablet and comes in with that ultra-manageable 8.3-inch Liquid Retina Display you won’t find elsewhere in the lineup. Not to mention the 30% jump in CPU power, 25% better graphics performance, and upgraded storage capacity tiers.

Just for comparison’s sake, here’s how the all-time low pricing shakes out on the new 11-inch iPad right now:

We are finally getting the very first chance to save on the new earbuds in brand-new condition. We featured a few chances to score an open-box set for less on the black set, but Amazon is now offering . Regularly $250, this is a straight up $50 off the going rate and the first deal on Amazon.

Today’s Amazon all-time low pricing marks the first time we have seem the lauded new Powerbeats Pro 2 drop in price outside of the open-box offers at Best Buy.

You’ll find this same deal in brand-new condition while pricing on the open-box listings have now dropped even lower as well, but only on the black colorway – they are now down at .

The AirPods 4 carry regular prices at $129 and $179, respectively. Today’s deals are notable as well – the standard set is now on par with the lowest we have tracked on Amazon since release last fall while the ANC set is at back at the best new price of the year.

There have been some notable offers on AirPods 4 in certified Best Buy refurbished and open-box condition over the last month or so that have mostly come and gone, but for folks looking to score a brand new set, today’s deals should be on your radar.

We did see the AirPods Pro 2 with some fantastic price drops over the holidays last year, falling right down to $153 for a brief time at Amazon, but the $170 price point we have here today is within $1 of the best we have tracked since then if you’re still looking to score a new set.

This morning we wanted to touch down on the iPad Air – the latest M3 models on Amazon and we are starting to see some new all-time lows on last year’s M2 variants with at least 2x the savings. While for some, event considering the previous-generation models is out of the question, especially when the latest iterations are at the best prices to date, others might not even notice the difference between the two and would rather reap the extra savings. The details await below.

At a glance the M3 iPad Air is very much the same as the M2 model – we are not talking about the same sizable, generational leap like we saw from the M2 iPad Pro to the fancy new M4 iPad Pro here. The M3 is certainly a faster machine than the M2 but beyond that, it has the “same colors with the same displays that use the same cameras and have the same storage tiers for the same price,” as we over at 9to5Mac . They are also both running M series chips that both support Apple Intelligence.

So what’s the real difference here? Well, not a whole lot outside of the price and the slightly faster processing action the M3 delivers that perhaps only some folks will even notice.

Now let’s take a rundown of the discounts pricing we are tracking on both – do you want save $100 on the brand new M3 iPad Air that just released a couple months ago, or $200+ on the M2 iPad Air that is likely the same thing for most folks? Or should you just save up and score an M4 iPad Pro instead? Okay so that last one is quite a jump in price, but it is something to consider here.

Every single one of the storage capacity configurations on the M3 iPad Air are now $100 off – these are the best prices we have tracked on these machines in brand new condition since release.

While stock is beginning to seriously dwindle at Amazon for the M2 iPad Air, you can, however, score as much as $250 off for select Wi-Fi + Cell configurations, and $200 off standard models. While not all of them are in stock, one of the highlights here his the mid-range that is now down at – that’s the original $899 list price – and the , or $250 off the regular $1,049 list.

If you are looking to go pro, here are the .
