AirPods Pro 3 Nearly $100 Off, M3 iPad Air $250 Off, and More Apple Deals

Today's Apple deals roundup brings some of the best prices we've seen on recent hardware, with AirPods Pro 3 hitting nearly $100 off in open-box condition and M3 iPad Air seeing a deep $250 price drop as stock begins to disappear.

AirPods Pro 3 at Nearly $100 Off

If you're quick, you can score AirPods Pro 3 at $154.99 shipped in "excellent" open-box condition from Best Buy. This represents a $94 discount from the regular $249 price tag and one of the best prices we've tracked to date from a reputable dealer. The open-box units come with a 1-year warranty, making this an attractive option for those willing to consider slightly pre-owned gear.

While Amazon has AirPods Pro 3 listed at $219.99 shipped (a modest $30 discount), the open-box deal at Best Buy delivers significantly more savings. Even the lowest brand-new price we've tracked for AirPods Pro 3 is $185 shipped, making this open-box deal particularly compelling.

M3 iPad Air Sees $250 Price Drop

Apple's M3 iPad Air is seeing stock depletion at Amazon, but not before delivering a substantial $250 price drop on the 1TB model. This deep discount makes the high-capacity configuration more accessible than ever, though availability may be limited as inventory runs low.

M5 iPad Pro Configurations Return to All-Time Lows

Amazon has brought back its all-time low pricing on Apple's M5 iPad Pro, with the 1TB 11-inch cellular model dropping $150 off the list price. The Wi-Fi only variant is also seeing similar discounts. Meanwhile, Best Buy's new 4-day flash sale for Plus and Total members offers an additional $50 off, bringing total savings to $200 on select 11- and 13-inch configurations.

Here's how pricing breaks down at Amazon:

M5 iPad Pro 11-inch:

• 256GB: $799 (Reg. $999)
• 512GB: $1,000 (Reg. $1,199)

Additional Apple Deals Worth Noting

• iPhone 16 Pro Max: Amazon is offering Premium Renewed 1TB iPhone 16 Pro Max units for $949 shipped, a staggering $650 off the original $1,599 launch price. This compares favorably to Apple's official refurbished store, where the same model costs $320 more.

These deals represent some of the most significant discounts we've seen on recent Apple hardware, particularly for the AirPods Pro 3 and M3 iPad Air. As always with open-box and refurbished items, availability may be limited and conditions can vary, so act quickly if you spot something that meets your needs.
