Less Than 12 Hours Left to Score Hundreds Off Apple Products at Best Buy [CNET]

It’s your last chance to save big on popular Apple products, including iPad Air, MacBooks and AirPods.

There’s no question that Apple makes some of the best laptops and mobile phones out there, along with top-rated devices like headphones and smartwatches. But if you’ve done your research, you know that these devices don’t come cheap. So when Apple products go on sale, we take notice. Best Buy’s Apple Sale Event offers you the chance to save hundreds across the entire lineup of Apple products, but today is your last chance to take advantage. The sale ends at 11:59 p.m. CT on Sunday, Aug. 11.

While it’s a good idea to check out the Best Buy Apple sale in full for yourself, we’re going to highlight a couple of the standout deals below. 

First up is one of the best iPad models of recent years, the fifth-gen iPad Air. While a 2024 model was just released, the previous-gen Air still offers impressive processing speeds, an excellent 11-inch display, and a thin and light design that makes it easy to tote around on the daily. And it’s $200 off right now, bringing the price down from $600 to $400. Along with the price cut, you’ll  also get three months free of Apple TV, Apple Fitness and Apple Music and four months of Apple Arcade. There’s also the potential to get up to $250 in trade-in credit if you have a previous gen iPad or similar device to swap in.

If you need even more power, the M2 iPad Pro (6th gen) is available for up to $600 off. It has similarly been replaced by a 2024 iPad Pro model but it still provides ample processing ability, and it’s available in an even larger 12.9-inch size with a gorgeous mini-LED screen. 

It’s also worth taking a look at some of the best MacBook options, including both the M2 MacBook Air and new M3 MacBook Air,
at up to $200 off, with MacBook Pro models seeing as much as $1,000 in savings for My Best Buy Plus members.
