Apple Presidents Day 2026: Massive Savings on AirPods, MacBooks, and More

The official Presidents Day sales are now live through today, and Apple enthusiasts are in for a treat with deep discounts across the entire product lineup. From AirPods and Apple Watches to MacBooks and iPhones, retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H Photo are offering some of the best prices we've seen since the holiday season.

AirPods Deals: Max Models at $150 Off

Amazon has refreshed its stock of the latest USB-C AirPods Max with all five colors now sitting at the holiday pricing of $449 shipped, or $150 off the $549 list price. This represents one of the best deals we've seen on Apple's premium over-ear headphones.

Beyond the AirPods Max, you'll find the AirPods Pro 3 at $210 (regularly $249) and AirPods 4 models starting from $100 (regularly $139-$179). These prices have been stable throughout the day, making them reliable options for those looking to upgrade their audio experience.

Mac mini with 24GB RAM: A Rare Configuration

B&H Photo is offering a compelling discount on the most affordable 24GB M4 Mac mini you can buy at $100 off. The configuration includes 256GB of storage and 24GB of RAM for $699 shipped, down from its regular $799 price. This is particularly noteworthy because you can't get this specific configuration at Amazon or other major retailers.

The 24GB RAM configuration is the most affordable setup you can buy with that amount of memory, and while the 256GB storage might seem limiting, it's generally easy to supplement with external storage solutions you might already own. The RAM, however, is not as easily upgradeable, making this deal especially attractive for users who need that extra memory headroom.

iPhone 16 Pro Models Up to $630 Off

Amazon's Renewed Premium program is offering significant discounts on iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max units, with savings up to $630 off the original new prices. These are the highest-quality refurbished units available, backed by a 1-year warranty.

Here are the current deals:

• iPhone 16 Pro 256GB: $649 (Orig. $899)
• iPhone 16 Pro 512GB: $819 (Orig. $1,299)
• iPhone 16 Pro 1TB: $869 (Orig. $1,499)
• iPhone 16 Pro Max 512GB: $929 (Orig. $1,399)
• iPhone 16 Pro Max 1TB: $989 (Orig. $1,599)

While the 512GB models are at their lowest prices to date and well below the original list prices, the 1TB models offer exceptional value. For just $50 more than the 512GB versions, you get double the storage - an upgrade that would typically cost $200.

Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra Deals

The entire lineup of Apple Watch Series 11 models is available at $100 off, starting from $299 for the 42mm GPS model. This represents the lowest prices we've tracked since release and might not last through the end of the day.

42mm Apple Watch Series 11: $299 (Reg. $399) 46mm Apple Watch Series 11: $329 (Reg. $429) 42mm Apple Watch Series 11 Cellular: $399 (Reg. $499) 46mm Apple Watch Series 11 Cellular: $429 (Reg. $529)

For those seeking premium options, Apple Watch Ultra 2 models are available at $250 off in brand new condition, with prices starting at $549. The new Apple Watch Ultra 3 is also seeing discounts of up to $150 off on open-box excellent condition units.

M5 MacBook Pro Discounts

As we head into President's Day weekend, authorized dealer B&H is offering some of the best deals on Apple's latest M5 MacBook Pro models. While Amazon is offering up to $200 off, B&H is delivering even deeper discounts on upgraded configurations.

Early President's Day M5 MacBook Pro deals:

• 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro 16GB/512GB: $1,449 (Reg. $1,599)
• 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro 16GB/1TB: $1,599 (Reg. $1,799)
• 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro 24GB/512GB: $1,549 (Reg. $1,799)

• 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro 32GB/1TB: $1,899 (Reg. $2,199)

The 24GB configuration with 512GB SSD is particularly noteworthy as it's the most affordable setup you can buy with 24GB of RAM and one you cannot purchase at Amazon. The 32GB models are also seeing substantial $300 discounts, making them attractive options for power users.

iPad mini 7 at $100 Off

Following the trend of Series 11 Apple Watch discounts, the latest iPad mini 7 is also available at $100 off across all configurations and colors. Amazon is offering:

• iPad mini 128GB: $399 (Reg. $499)
• iPad mini 256GB: $499 (Reg. $599)
• iPad mini 512GB: $699 (Reg. $799)

This discount applies to all three storage options and all four available colors, making it a great time to pick up Apple's compact tablet.

What Makes These Deals Special

Several factors make this year's Presidents Day sales particularly attractive:

Limited-time pricing: Many of these deals represent the lowest prices we've seen since the holiday season, and with the sales ending today, they may not return until Black Friday.

Configuration availability: Some deals, like the 24GB Mac mini and certain MacBook Pro configurations, are only available at specific retailers, making them unique opportunities.

Premium product discounts: High-end products like the AirPods Max and Apple Watch Ultra are seeing substantial discounts, making premium Apple technology more accessible.

Refurbished quality: The iPhone 16 Pro deals through Amazon Renewed Premium offer like-new quality with warranties, providing significant savings without compromising on quality.

Final Thoughts

The Presidents Day 2026 sales represent one of the best opportunities of the year to purchase Apple products at discounted prices. With deals spanning the entire product lineup and significant savings on premium configurations, there's something for every Apple enthusiast.

However, with the sales ending today and some deals already showing limited stock, interested buyers should act quickly. The combination of deep discounts, unique configurations, and the quality assurance of authorized dealers makes this a particularly compelling sales event for anyone in the market for Apple technology.

For the latest updates and additional deals as they become available, be sure to check the official retailers' websites and authorized Apple dealers throughout the day.
