Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale is now live (it runs October 7-8). It may be better known as October Prime Day 2025, but whatever you call it, it’s a big sale with big discounts for Prime members. Among the many items on sale right now are Apple products. We’re talking things like AirPods, iPads, and AirTags. Below, we’ve hand-picked the best Apple deals available in the sale event, so grab what you want before it ends.
Best Apple Deals in Amazon Prime Big Deal Days
These are the best Apple deals of the bunch. Read on for blurbs about what makes each one worth picking up.
Apple AirPods Pro - 2nd Gen
Apple just released the third generation of its AirPods Pro, but Amazon has 2nd-edition AirPods Pro on sale for $169.99. Or, if you don't mind getting them in "Renewed Premium" condition (think refurbished) you can score a pair on sale for $139.99. Either way, that's a great price on the best earbuds I’ve ever owned (I don’t feel the need to upgrade to the third-gen ones when my second-gen ones work just fine). The noise cancellation shuts out outside sounds nicely, as does the “adaptive noise cancelation,” which kicks in only when it needs to. I love these things.
Apple AirPods 4 - With or Without Noise Cancellation
Some people don’t like the silicon tips in the AirPods Pro and prefer the tip-less plastic of standard AirPods. These are available with or without noise cancellation, and both are on sale for Prime members.
Apple iPad with A16 chip
The baseline iPad is a terrific value at its usual MSRP, which makes this deal even better. It’s a big, gorgeous tablet that has plenty of power for doing all the things most people do on their tablets: stream music and video, check email, scroll social media, surf the web, and play games.
Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro)
Some people feel like the standard iPad is a bit too big and unwieldy. For them, the iPad Mini is just right. It’s comfortably larger than your phone, but it’s light enough to use one-handed. I personally think it’s the ideal size for reading ebooks.
Apple Watch Series 9 and 10
Smart watches have come a long way over the years, but like cars, each new model only has incremental upgrades. While Apple recently released Apple Watch Series 11, the Series 9 and 10 are both worthy pieces of tech in 2025. Grab one if you need one.
AirPods Max Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
If earbuds aren’t your thing, then AirPods Max just might fit the bill. These over-ear headphones offer exquisite noise cancelation. They look and feel great, and they come in an array of colors. They’re also 22% off.
Apple AirTag (4 Pack)
And if you’re constantly losing your keys or your kids, you can simply put an AirTag on them. These ingenious devices help you find whatever you want to keep track of. And while they normally run $25 apiece, Amazon has them on sale in either a 4-pack or a single.
