Apple AirPods Black Friday Early Deals
Apple’s AirPods are my personal favorites and they feature stellar noise cancellation and a comfortable fit — now available with five ear tip sizes. These comfy earbuds deliver extended battery life and have Adaptive EQ for a personalized sound experience. Plus, the latest earbuds now feature health tools, including heart rate tracking.
These comfortable over-ear headphones combine pro-level Active Noise Cancellation with Transparency mode so you can stay aware of your surroundings. Plus, they feature all-day battery life.
Go old school with the original corded Apple EarPods. The Lightning connector option is currently on sale. Is it a huge discount? Maybe not, but every bit helps.
Apple Watch Black Friday Early Deals
The more compact SE is your best choice if you’re new to the smartwatch game but still want top health-tracking features. It’s lightweight, too, and gives health performance stats, making this a great pick for fitness nuts who don’t want to invest in a hefty smartwatch.
This option comes with advanced health features, including vitals tracking. It’s also still one of the best smartwatches to buy right now, thanks to its lightweight design and waterproof features.
This is the ultimate smartwatch for outdoor lovers. Whether you’re hiking or diving, the Ultra can track it all. It’s definitely bulkier, but if you’re one to head out on a trail or even on a dive, the Ultra is the watch you want.
MacbBook Black Friday Early Deals
Apple’s 2026 MacBook Air features the Apple M5 chip, which will keep your laptop cool and performance-ready over time. Remember those older chips that would make your laptop’s fan act up? Well, not anymore. This option is built for multitasking, from WFH workers to in-office troopers.
This 11-inch iPad can handle all the everyday tasks you throw at it plus so much more. It’s lightweight, portable and packs Apple’s A16 chip. Plus, the colored chassis is fun to look at.
This sleek portable tablet can handle all your daily work tasks and looks good doing it. It’s super portable too, and you can even use it as an e-reader for when you travel.
This Apple iPad Air is much more powerful than the traditional 11-inch iPad and, in my opinion, is the best choice if you want a 2-in-1 device. It packs Apple’s M4 chip, Touch ID and all-day battery life.
The only laptop you need for work, gaming or streaming, and one that’s hard to compete with. In my opinion, MacBooks are built to last the test of time and are the most lag-free devices I’ve ever used. I still own my 2029 MacBook Pro, and she works just fine.
Apple TV Black Friday Early Deals
Apple TV is one of my favorite streaming services, and it gives you access to exclusive movies and TV shows, including “The Morning Show,” “Ted Lasso” and more. Amazon is currently offering a week-long trial so you can check out whether you like the subscription for yourself.
