10 unmissable Apple deals that arrive before Christmas – AirPods, iPads, AirTags, and more

Need a stocking stuffer? Walmart has the best-selling Apple AirTag 4-pack on sale for $69.99. If you know someone who tends to misplace things, attach the AirTag to anything you don't want to lose or keep track of, such as a backpack, and your iPhone will locate the item. Arrives before Christmas

If you haven't heard, wired headphones are all the rage, which is why Apple's EarPods for $15.96 is such a great deal. A slim, high-quality design, clear sound, and a comfortable fit are just a few of their standout qualities. This model works with all devices that have a Lightning connector – which is iPhone 14 and before – so if you've got a newer iPhone, you'll instead want the USB-C version ($16.99 at Amazon). Arrives before Christmas

The AirPods 4 are Apple's cheapest AirPods, and you can find them on sale for $74 - just a few dollars shy of the record-low price we saw during Black Friday. The AirPods 4 feature a new design for all-day comfort and feature Apple's H2 chip, which supports personalized spatial audio and voice isolation. You also get a redesigned case with 30 hours of battery life and support for USB-C for wireless charging. Arrives before Christmas

Walmart has the AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation in stock and on sale for $139. The AirPods 4 feature a new comfortable design, handy controls, and Apple's H2 chip, which supports personalized spatial audio and voice isolation. Arrives before Christmas

Walmart has a rare $50 discount on the new Apple Watch SE 3, making it an excellent bargain at just $199. The Apple Watch SE 2 currently holds the position as the best budget smartwatch, but the SE 3 more than matches it – and it's a smarter buy.

One of Walmart's best holiday deals is a $100 discount on the brand-new Apple Watch Series 11. The thinnest Apple Watch yet, with a wraparound LTP3 OLED display, it's a great-looking watch with Apple Intelligence-powered smarts and a boosted battery compared to previous Apple Watches, clocking in at 24 hours of average use. Arrives before Christmas

Apple's latest base iPad is on sale for just $299 at Best Buy, which is only $25 more than the record-low price. The most significant upgrade for this model versus the previous generation is the newer A16 chip for faster performance, but you'll also get double the storage as standard (128GB instead of 64GB). Other features include a sharp 11-inch Liquid Retina display and solid 12MP front and back cameras, which make this iPad the best iPad for casual streamers and scrollers. Arrives before Christmas

Amazon's $999.99 deal on the 11-inch cellular iPad Pro is the best on the internet right now. In our iPad Pro (2024) review (albeit for the 13-inch model), we describe Apple's 2024 flagship tablet as "the impossibly thin king of iPads – and maybe all tablets." Naturally, that level of quality comes at a premium, but this is a great time to snag a discount. Arrives before Christmas
