Post-Prime Day Apple Discounts Remain on AirPods Max 2, Macs, and Apple Watch
Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days event has ended, but several Apple discounts are still available. AirPods Max 2 are priced at $429, Apple Watch Series 12 starts at $349.99, and the Mac mini starts at $779.99. Other remaining deals include the Mac Studio at $2,299 and $200 off multiple M5 MacBook Air configurations.
After Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days wrapped, several Apple markdowns stayed live. The AirPods Max 2 remain at $429 in all colors, while the Apple Watch Series 12 starts at $349.99 for 42mm GPS and $399.99 for 46mm GPS, both listed as record-low prices.
Mac deals also persist: the Mac mini starts at $779.99, the M5 Max Mac Studio is $2,299, and many M5 MacBook Air configurations carry $200 savings. MacBook Pro cuts reach $600, and M4 iPad Air models see up to $149 off, with some Best Buy matches.
These lingering discounts may let budget-conscious shoppers, students, and creative professionals buy Apple devices without waiting for another major sale event. Extended availability could blur the distinction between event pricing and everyday pricing, possibly influencing how consumers time upgrades. Retailers may feel pressure to match Amazon’s prices, while Apple could see stronger short-term unit sales but potential pressure on perceived premium pricing. The effect is likely modest, since these are temporary promotions rather than permanent price cuts.
