Alongside the ongoing pre-order deals we spotted on the new AirPods Pro 3<\/a> and Apple Watch Series 11<\/a>, today\u2019s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is starting off with details on the best pre-order savings opportunities for the new Apple Watch Ultra 3<\/a>. Next we have Apple\u2019s 15-inch 16GB, 24GB, and 32GB M4 MacBook Air configs at $200 off<\/a> alongside some even lower prices on iPhone 16 Pro<\/a> and 15 Pro Max <\/a>for folks not upgrading \u2013 you can land these at up to $750 less<\/a> than the new 17 equivalents right now. Everything else, including the new Satechi 25% off sitewide sale<\/a> exclusively for 9to5 readers, awaits below.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Best Buy knocks $50 off Apple Watch Ultra 3 for members or $300 w\/ trade, but this offer might be even better<\/p>\n

Pre-orders have now landed on the new Apple Watch Ultra 3<\/a>, alongside the savings opportunities we featured on the new Apple Watch Series 11<\/a> and AirPods Pro 3<\/a>. Amazon now has listings live<\/a> on the latest flagship Apple wearable, but Best Buy is now offering a $50 off <\/a>to its members alongside some trade-in options \u2013 it just might not be the best option.<\/p>\n

Much like we saw on the AirPods Pro 3, Best Buy is now offering its Plus and Total members a straight $50 discount on the new Ultra 3<\/a>. This isn\u2019t store credit you receive after the fact or enhanced trade-in value, but rather just a promotion for its members that will drop the regularly $799 pro-grade Apple Watch Ultra 3 down to $749.99 shipped<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now you will obviously have to be a paid Best Buy member to actually take advantage of this deal, but it is by and large the only game in town when it comes to straight up cash discounts for those who are (outside of the limited educational offers and the like).<\/p>\n

With that said, My Best Buy Plus and Total members can also double down on this offer with Best Buy\u2019s trade-in values as well. But you might only want to take advantage of this if you happen to already have some store credit on your account you can use as well.<\/p>\n

As of right now, Best Buy is offering us $250 credit with Apple Watch Ultra 2<\/a> trade-ins, $185 with Apple Watch 1<\/a>trades, and $180 when trading up from Apple Watch Series 10<\/a>. But here\u2019s the thing\u2026<\/p>\n

Over on the official Apple Store, we are getting better quotes \u2013 typically speaking Best Buy offers more than Apple, but even with the FREE $50 credit Apple will knock even more off your Ultra 3 with an Ultra 2 trade-in. With a 2024 Apple Watch Ultra 2 configuration (the Natural with the Tan Alpine Loop to be exact), we are getting the following:<\/p>\n

So even with the extra $50 credit Best Buy amounts to $300 with an Ultra 2 trade, Apple however will send you up to $335 back against your Ultra 3 purchase.<\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s 15-inch 16GB, 24GB, and 32GB M4 MacBook Air configs are $200 off today<\/p>\n

We had a good long run of $200 off price drops on Apple\u2019s latest M4 MacBook Air at Amazon, but that time has come and gone now. However, B&H has brought back a few different 15-inch models with the same $200 price drops alongside upgraded specs<\/a> that might be of interest for folks looking towards a more powerful setup without getting into the M4 MacBook Pro lineup.<\/p>\n

There are some MacBook Pro variants you can land for less than the M4 MacBook Air deals we have here today, but Apple is expected to be upgrading the Pro lineup to M5 this year and you\u2019re certainly going to be a paying a whole lot more for these sorts of RAM and storage specs on the M4 Pro.<\/p>\n

As of right now, pricing has simmered on the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air at B&H as well, alongside some of the base model 15-inchers. But there are a few notable and upgraded configs back down at $200 off<\/a> the list prices:<\/p>\n

All three of the configurations above are either undercutting Amazon or just aren\u2019t offered there at all.<\/p>\n

But when you start getting up into these sorts of prices, deals or otherwise, on the M4 MacBook Air, it is important to understand how that stacks up with the M4 MacBook Pro \u2013 it does have a better display and it is the pro machine for a reason.<\/p>\n

A 16GB\/512GB Pro<\/a> is selling for $1,429 on Amazon right now \u2013 $230 more than the comparable Air above, and you\u2019re going to pay at least $1779 at Amazon right now for a 24GB\/1TB setup<\/a>. Again, that is the MacBook Pro, so it\u2019s hard to draw direct comparison, but it is a good idea to at least understand how things stack up before you pay the upgrade tax on the Air.<\/p>\n

It is also readying its new Ostand Q3 Air with a 360\u00b0 rotatable integrated stand, and both of them are seeing some exclusive discounts for the launch period:<\/p>\n

Alongside 3-packs of screen protectors starting from just $10, the new ESR iPhone 17 case lineup has arrived with discounts as well. Its Cyber Tough Magnetic lands in a number of different colors with a flip-out metal camera array protector that doubles as a kickstand while the Classic Hybrid Magnetic model provides a more minimalist clear treatment with the same metal kickstand feature.\u00a0<\/p>\n

M4 Pro MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM and 1TB SSD now $400 off the list price<\/p>\n

While yesterday\u2019s 24-hour deal on the 24GB\/512GB<\/a> has jumped up $100, B&H is offering an equally as notable $400 price drop<\/a> on the 16-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro <\/a>with the 1TB SSD upgrade. Details below.<\/p>\n

Over at B&H, you will now find the 16-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro<\/a> with 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage down at $2,299 shipped<\/a>. This is a regularly $2,699 configuration with a deep $400 price drop for the lowest price we can find.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re looking at another authorized, fully legit configuration you can\u2019t buy at Amazon. For the record, it is charging just $50 less than this for half the storage on the 16-inch M4 Pro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

B&H has been one of the best sources for landing deals on the 16-inch M4 Pro models all year long. While we have seen $300 off a few times on Amazon and nearly $400 for a couple very brief deals mid-year on the 24GB\/512GB, when it comes to the upgraded 1TB model B&H is where it\u2019s at and it\u2019s at $400 off the list price right now.<\/p>\n

While perhaps not as niche as the $400 price drop we featured yesterday on the 48GB model<\/a> \u2013 that one is on sale at the same price the model we are featuring today would run you at full price, all 16GB M4 Pro MacBook Pro are at least a little bit less universal than the less pricey 14-inchers. That said, we are going to be well into 2026 before the new M5 models Apple is expected to reveal this fall drop this low, and a 24GB\/1TB M4 Pro is going to remain a powerful machine well beyond that in my opinion.<\/p>\n
