So far, Apple Prime Day deals aren't great... but there's still hope

iPad Pro (12.9-inch, 2022): Was $1,099 now $1,049 at Amazon
Save $50: Unfortunately, the bigger savings on the highest-end configurations of the newest and most powerful iPad Pro had gone when we last checked, but there's still this tasty saving if you want the 128GB entry configuration.

iPad Air 5th-gen (M1,2022): $749 $699 at Amazon
Save $50: This deal isn't quite what it was a few days ago (it was $70 off, a record-low), but still saves you $50 on the latest iPad Air, which was only released in March and feels more like an iPad Pro than ever – it even has the same chip.

iPad mini 6th-gen (2021) 256GB: From $649 to $599 at Amazon
Save $50: The biggest price drop on this iPad mini only applies to the Starlight colour model. There are still smaller savings to be had on the other vibrant colours though, and on the 64GB configuration. The lowest price we've seen on this model is a whopping $60 less than this saving so it may be worth holding out for more of a discount.

iPad Pro 11 (M1, 2021) 2TB WiFi + cellular: £1,899 £1,370 at Amazon
Save £529: The top iPad Pro configurations with cellular connectivity and 2TB of storage are hugely expensive, but this is a huge 28% discount. This isn't the lowest price we've ever seen it since it was briefly reduced to just £1,200 in January, but it's a great saving if you need a Pro with these high-end specs.

NEW MacBook Air (M2, 2022) 256GB: $1,099 $979 at Amazon
Save $120: B&H has a nice saving on the M2-powered MacBook Air, which was only released in July 2022. When we reviewed this one, we found its performance to be on par with the 13-inch MacBook Pro. We have seen this reduced to $200 previously, but we still think this is a reasonable deal.

NEW MacBook Pro 14.2-inch (M2, 2023) 512GB: $1,999 $1,899 at Amazon
Save $100: This latest M2-powered MacBook Pro was released in January, and it already had a price drop in this pre Apple Prime Day deal. The discount has gone from $200 to $100 – but if you were going to buy one anyway, this is still a nice saving (otherwise it might be worth waiting for Prime Day itself. This model has an M2 Pro chip, 512GB of storage, and a 10-core CPU with 16-core GPU. 

MacBook Pro 16-inch (M1 Pro, 2021) 1TB: $2,699 $1,899 at B&H
Save $800! Possibly the best pre-Prime Day deal we've seen, you can save a staggering amount on this MacBook Pro M1 2021 model in Space Gray over at B&H. Be quick, as we don't think the stock will last very long at this bargain price, the discount has already gone down by $50.

MacBook Pro 16-inch (M1 Pro, 2021) 1TB: $2,699 $2,398 at Amazon
Save $300: Note that this is the same MacBook as the above deal with $850 off. The only difference; is the colour. It's still a substantial MacBook deal from Amazon, but nothing on the one above from B&H, so this is only worth considering if you prefer the silver model or if the other deal sells out.

MacBook Pro 14-inch (M1 Pro, 2021) 1TB: $2,499 $1,999 at Amazon
Save $500: Get $500 off the 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD 2021 MacBook Pro 14-inch, which boasts super performance and practical portability. It's cheaper than its larger 16-inch sibling above and the more compact size could be an advantage for those that want a laptop they can carry on the go.

MacBook Air (M1, 2020) 256GB: $899 $869 at Amazon
Save $30: We need to be clear about this deal – the retail price given as $999 is not right. This amazing laptop (my favourite of all time), came out in 2020, and you can regularly get it for $899, so I'd say the saving here is more like £30. Is that still worth it? Well, actually I expect better discouints on this model come Tuesday and Wednesday, so I'd hold out. 

NEW MacBook Air 15 (M2, 2023) 256GB: $1,299 $1,199 at Apple Education
Save $100: Apple's newest MacBook Air, released just last month was quite a surprise, adding a larger 15-inch device to the Air range. On such a new laptop, we're not seeing any general deals as yet, but if you're a qualifying student, you can save $100 at the Apple Education store.

NEW MacBook Pro 14.2-inch (M2, 2023) 512GB: £2,149 £1,998.42 at Amazon
Save £150: This latest M2-powered MacBook Pro was released in January, and we've already managed to find a price drop on Apple's latest product that's only £7 off its lowest ever price. This model has an M2 Pro chip, 512GB of storage, and a 10-core CPU. 

NEW MacBook Air 15-inch (M2, 2023) 512GB: £1,599 £1,449.97 at Amazon
Save £149: This latest M2-powered MacBook Air was released just two weeks ago, and we've already managed to find a price drop on Apple's latest product. This current low price applies to the Midnight colour model only, but there are still savings to be had on the other colour choices too. If you've been sitting on the idea of getting the latest MacBook Air, now is the time. 

NEW MacBook Air 15-inch (M2, 2023) 256GB: £1,399 £1,269.97 at Amazon
Save £129: This latest M2-powered MacBook Air was released just two weeks ago, and we've already managed to find a price drop on Apple's latest product. If you've been sitting on the idea of getting the latest MacBook Air, now is the time. 

Apple Watch Series 8 at Amazon US: $399 $379
Save $20: The Apple Watch Series 8 is the latest version of Apple's standard wearable. Along with the larger screen introduced with the Series 7, it features temperature sensing and blood oxygen tracking. This is a small saving but it was bigger a couple of days ago ($70 off) so we'd recommend holding out for more.

Apple Watch SE (1st gen) at Walmart: $279 $149
Save $130: For a budget option, look no further than the Apple Watch SE. This deal knocks $130 off the price of the 1st gen model, which, although it doesn't pack an always-on display, is still a hugely feature rich wearable.

Apple Watch Ultra (GPS + cellular, 45mm) £849 £819 at Amazon
Save £30: Apple's heavy-duty rugged smartwatch is a pricey piece of kit and sadly it doesn't tend to come in for very big discounts, but something is something at least. We'll be hoping to see bigger discounts this Prime Day, but we're not holding our breath.

Apple AirPods Max: $549 $449.99 at Amazon
Save $99: This is a welcome discount on Apple's over-ear headphones, but they were previously reduced to $429. But still, this is a great discount.

Apple AirPods: $129 $99 at Amazon
Save $30: For inner ears, Amazon has -23% off Apple standard AirPods (2nd-Gen), taking the price down to a very reasonable $99.

Apple AirPods: $249 $199 at Amazon
Save $50: Want active noise cancellation and customizable spatial audio? For that, you'll need to splash out on the pro-version of the earbuds, but fortunately, Amazon has $50 off the latest generation in this sweet Pre-Prime Day Apple deal which matches the lowest price on record.

Apple AirPods Pro 2: £249 £224 at Amazon
Save £25: The new improved versions of Apple's already fantastic noise-cancelling earbuds provide up to 2x-improved noise cancellation and personalised spatial audio. This might seem like a small discount, but it's the best price we've seen in the UK to date.

Apple AirPods Max: £549 £499 at Amazon
Save £50: You can save 9-per cent off various colour variations of the brilliant Apple AirPods Max on Amazon right now. Considering how expensive these Apple headphones are, it's well worth grabbing this discount if you've had your eye on them.

Apple iMac (27-inch, 2020): $1,999 $1,489 at Amazon
Save $510: This 25% off Apple Amazon deal is one of the biggest discounts we've seen on the 2020 27-inch iMac with its retina 5K display (and an extra $10 off has been added in the last day). The price above is for the Intel Core i5 configuration, but there's an i7 version too.

Apple iMac 24-inch (M1, 512GB, 2021): £1,799 £1,692.61 at Amazon
Save over £105: This is a decent saving on the 24in 2021 M1-chipped iMac. This configuration packs an 8-core CPU and 8-core GPU, 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD, but there's also a discount on the 512GB version. You'll have to wait a while for it to arrive.

Apple iMac (27-inch, 2020): £1,999 £1,624 at Amazon
Save £375: This 19% off Prime members-only Apple Amazon sale deal is the biggest discount we've seen in the UK on the 2020 27-inch iMac with its retina 5K display. The price above is for the Intel Core i5 configuration, but there's a similar saving on the i7 version too.

Apple iMac (21.5-inch, 2020): £1,099 £929 at Amazon

Apple iPhone 14 Pro (128 GB): £1,099 £1,034.99 at Amazon
Save £64: This is a small saving on the newest iPhone Pro, but it is over halfway to the lowest price we've seen (which was £999) so it's not a bad one. If you want this now then it's a nice chance to save some cash, but if you can wait you may well save more on Prime Day itself. This saving is on the gold and silver models, though you can get the deep purple and space grey for £5 more.

Kensington SD5700T Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station: $289.99 $251.21 at Amazon
Save $38: This dock is ranking number one in our best dock for MacBook Pro guide. While this isn't the lowest price we've seen, it is still a decent discount and one we'd suggest you go for if you need a brilliant dock right now. The lowest price was $216, so it does have potential to fall lower if you're able to wait.
