Alongside the ongoing AirPods Pro 3 deal and the new Amazon all-time low on AirPods Max 2, today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is headlined by Apple’s new mid-range 256GB 13-inch M4 iPad Air hitting a new all-time low at nearly $110 off. We also have clearance pricing live on M4 MacBook Air 16GB/512GB at nearly $400 off list price and the return of all-time low pricing on the 24GB M5 MacBook Pro at $300 off the original launch price joined by some accessory deals – Apple USB-C Charge Cables from $6.50 and Apple’s AirTag Loop down at just $6. Head below for a closer look.
Update 5/4: All of the AirPods Max 2 colors have now hit new Amazon all-time lows starting at $509 shipped.
It’s not a giant price drop or anything, but if you are looking to land a brand new set of Apple’s next-generation AirPods Max 2 the Midnight and Starlight models have now hit a new Amazon all-time low.
Amazon is now offering Apple’s AirPods Max 2 down at $509.99 shipped. This deal is only live on the Midnight and Starlight colorways, but we are talking about a new Amazon all-time low and the best price we have tracked in brand new condition since release.
We are starting to see deal pricing on the new M4 iPad Air lineup drop even lower this week, and fortunately not just on the most expensive models. The most affordable configuration in the lineup hit its best price yesterday and now we have the 13-inch 256GB model dropping to a new Amazon all-time low at nearly $110 off.
Amazon is now offering Apple’s new 13-inch M4 iPad Air with the 256GB storage capacity down at $789.99 shipped in all four colors.
Regularly $899, you’re looking at just shy of $110 off and the best price we have tracked on this model. Up until now, really only the most expensive 1TB variants have hit the $100 off range, but today we are getting a mid-ranger model that hits right in the sweet spot for me on the iPad Air lineup – I probably don’t need 512GB, and I certainly don’t need the 1TB (unless there is a wild deal on one), and the 128GB leaves a little too much to be desired for me.
Again, we are also tracking the best price to date on the entry 11-inch model if the 128GB works for you, and you’ll find an updated list of deal pricing across the lineup below:
Deals on the new M5 MacBook Air are rolling this week as the entry model is now at its best price in most colors alongside $150 price drops across the entire lineup. But, while most of the M4 clearance deals have dried up now, this 15-inch 16GB/512GB model popped up this morning at nearly $400 off its original list price.
Amazon is now offering this 15-inch M4 MacBook Air with 16GB of RAM and the 512GB storage capacity down at $999.97 shipped.
This model launched at $1,399 and is now $399 off the original list price.
While Apple has, in fact, effectively lowered the price on the upgraded storage tiers on the new M5 lineup, this is still a notable discount. The 16GB/512GB 15-inch M5 carries a $1,299 list price and it is currently down to an Amazon all-time low at $1,149.
To put that in perspective, today’s clearance deal is $399 off the its original list price, as well as coming in at $299 less than the MSRP and $149 less than the current deal price on the most comparable M5 MacBook Air:
The M5 chip is certainly better, faster, and newer, and there are some other enhancements on the new M5 machines, but they do look essentially identical and if you don’t need the latest, this is a solid clearance deal for a 15-inch 16GB/512GB model that released last year.
Here’s how pricing across the M5 lineup breakdown right now:
Alongside a host of notable price drops at up to $300 off on the 2026 M5 Pro and M5 Max lineups, one of the better deals we have tracked this year on the more affordable M5 MacBook Pro is now live again and back in stock at Amazon – the 24GB/1TB at $200 off the list price and $300 off its launch price.
Amazon is now offering Apple’s 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM and the 1TB internal SSD down at $1,699 shipped. This is the same Amazon all-time low we featured late last week, but it quickly went out of stock and is now back once again.
This particular machine debuted in late 2025 at $1,999 and is now $300 less than that. It effectively saw a price drop by way of Apple upgrading the storage capacity tiers on the M5 lineup as of March 2026 – it now carries an $1,899 sticker price and is seeing a straight up $200 discount at Amazon right now.
While B&H has been rather competitive with Amazon over the last week or so on the latest MacBook lineup, it is charging $1,750+ for this configuration right now.
This one did see some notable price drops during the Black Friday and late 2025 holiday season last year, but the deals maxed out at $1,749 leaving the recent offers as the very best prices we have tracked to date on the mid-range M5 machine.
My Mom is totally happy with some flowers, maybe a cheap bottle of wine, and a visit, but if you’re looking to treat yours this year, or whomever you consider to be Mom, Apple’s ultra casual iPad 11 is a super sweet option. Pricey for a simple gift, sure, but not so wildly expensive either, and you can score one in any color at $299 today via Amazon.
If your Mom is a power tablet user, the base iPad 11 (A16) isn’t likely to be all that exciting. But when it comes to just having a fun and yet capable web-browsing and video chat-ready option, it is a great way to surprise Mom with an awesome Apple gift this year.
Regularly $349, Amazon has all four down at $299 shipped right now, which is on par with the best deals of the year and a great chance to land one ahead of this weekend’s big day.
Again, it’s certainly not the most powerful option, but if Mom is a just casual user, interested in a reliable tablet experience that runs Apple’s padOS for chatting with friends and family, browsing the web, making embracing posts on social media accounts, or doing some light banking, I would argue it is actually the best iPad you can get. There’s really no need to pay iPad Air prices for something this simple – the iPad 11 is roughly half the price and can likely do everything Mom needs it to.
