Apple Labor Day sales live — save big on MacBooks, iPads, AirPods and more ahead of Apple event
Huge discounts on AirPods, iPads, MacBooks and more this Labor Day weekend

Labor Day weekend is finally here, and retailers aren't holding back with huge discounts on all the best Apple products. You can usually bet Apple's premium brand will come with an equally eye-watering price tag, but right now, you can find some standout Apple Labor Day deals up for grabs at Best Buy and Amazon. With Apple revealing its big iPhone 17 event is set for September 9, we might see even more deals roll out next month. Still, there are plenty of great Apple discounts just waiting for you to hit "add to cart."
We're seeing up to 30% off select devices across Apple's entire lineup — like iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, Apple Watches, and AirPods — so there's no better time to snag that coveted Apple item you've been eyeing. One of my favorite deals is $300 off the new 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M4 chip at Amazon, the lowest price yet for one of the best laptops currently on the market. If you're searching for a great pair of earbuds, the AirPods 4 have also dropped down to a record low of $89.
Below, I've rounded up all the best Apple Labor Day deals I could find this holiday weekend. If you're interested in even more ways to save, be sure to check out this week's best Amazon promo codes.

The best new iPads, including iPad mini 7, all get to benefit from the new features in the Apple Pencil Pro — like the squeeze and barrel roll features. Not to mention all the classic Apple Pencil capabilities like pressure sensitivity, low-latency and tilt support.
The AirPods 4 boast a new design as well as Apple's H2 chip, which delivers clearer calls with Voice Isolation, and a new, hands-free way to interact with Siri. The AirPods 4 also have USB-C charging and include up to 30 hours of listening time. In our AirPods 4 review, we said the Editor's Choice earbuds bring Apple's wireless earbuds lineup into the modern day with Pro-level features for less.
The AirPods Pro 2 are Apple's best wireless earbuds. Our AirPods Pro 2 review found excellent sound quality, great noise cancelling performance and immersive Spatial audio.
The AirPods Max are Apple's flagship headphones, and despite a recent USB-C update they've remained mostly the same since their initial release. They're a weighty, well built pair of headphones that sound really good — earning 4 stars in our review — but they're starting to get a bit long in the tooth at this point.
The base model Mac mini M4 is a big step up from its predecessor and likely enough for most people without any expensive upgrades. It comes with Apple’s powerful M4 chip, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. You also get plenty of ports in a tiny package with three Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-C ports, HDMI and Ethernet.
The iMac M4 delivers all the strengths of the iMac with the added juice provided by Apple's M4 chip, delivering better performance than any iMac to date. However, a lack of meaningful improvements over older models means iMac M3 owners need not rush out to upgrade.
Best Apple Watch deals
The Apple Watch SE (2022) is the best budget Apple Watch and one of the best affordable smartwatches on the market today, even before a discount. For folks with smaller wrists, the 40mm SE is Apple’s lightest and easiest-wearing smartwatch. It also offers the same battery life, water resistance and many of the same features as the pricier Series 10.
Apple’s newest model is also on sale for $70 off. Featuring an outrageously thin case design and highly visible touchscreen, the Apple Watch Series 10 is my favorite full-featured smartwatch. For this deal, you can select from a couple of different case and strap styles, including all-black on a black silicone strap, rose gold on a white silicone strap, and rose gold on a plum Sports Loop.
Best iPad deals
The 2025 iPad features a larger 11-inch (2360 x 1640) screen, A16 CPU, 12MP rear/front cameras, USB-C connectivity, and Magic Keyboard Folio ($249) support. The base model features 128GB of storage, which double the capacity of its predecessor. It's available in 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB capacities.
The new iPad mini is already getting a discount, and any price cut to this small tablet is welcome. We're big fans of its incredibly portable design and long battery life (it lasted 10 hours in our battery life tests.) It comes with speedy performance thanks to Apple's A17 Pro chip, and has a gorgeous 8.3-inch (2,266 x 1,488) Liquid Retina display. You also get 12MP cameras on the front and back and Wi-Fi 6e support. In our iPad mini 7 review, we said it delivers the full iPad experience in a tiny size.
The 2025 iPad Air packs Apple's M3 processor, an 11-inch LED (2360 x 1640) display, 128GB of storage, a 12MP rear camera, and a 12MP front camera. The tablet features a more powerful 8-core CPU, which makes the M3 up to 35% faster for multithreaded CPU workflows than the iPad Air M1. There's also a 9-core GPU on board with 40% faster graphics performance. In our iPad Air M3 review, we called it "the best Apple tablet for most people."
Price check: $449 @ Best Buy
This larger size iPad Air sports the same M3 processor, but it's coupled with a 13-inch LED (2732 x 2048) display. Otherwise, it packs the same 128GB of storage, 12MP rear camera, WiFi 6E support, and a 12MP front camera. The new CPU and larger display should make this iPad a favorite for gamers.
The 11-inch iPad Pro packs Apple's latest M4 processor paired with a stunning 11-inch Tandem OLED (2420 x 1668) display. The new M4 processor features 9 CPU cores and 10 GPU cores. In our iPad Pro 2024 review we said it could very well be the most stunning tablet ever made.
At 5.1mm thick, this is one of the thinnest iPads Apple has ever made. It packs Apple's new M4 processor, a 13-inch Ultra Retina XDR display, and 12MP camera.
Best MacBook deals
The new MacBook Air is powered by Apple's latest M4 chipset. The new Mac upgrades the camera from 1080p to 12MP with Center Stage support. The M4 chipset also supports dual external monitors, even when you have the laptop's lid open. It packs a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display (2560 x 1664), Apple's M4 CPU w/ 10-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD. In our MacBook Air M4 review, we said the Editor's Choice laptop is irresistible thanks to its speedy performance, sharper camera, and lower starting price.
Prefer a bigger screen? The 15-inch model is also on sale. It packs a 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display (2880 x 1864), Apple's M4 CPU w/ 10-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD.
Thanks to its M4 chip, the new MacBook Pro offers up to 2x faster Neural Engine performance for AI tasks and 2x faster ray tracing compared to the old M3 models. As we said in our MacBook Pro 14-inch M4 review, you also get a sharper 12MP Center Stage webcam and extended battery life of over 18 hours in our testing.
