To start, you can save with some solid deals on AirPods, including the AirPods with Charging Case at $139.95, down from $159.95. This is around the same price we're seeing at all of the major Apple resellers this week, and just about $10 off from the lowest price tracked.

The AirPods with Wireless Charging Case is $169.95, down from $199.00, which is also hitting around the same price at places like Adorama and Amazon. If you want the standalone Wireless Charging Case for AirPods, that accessory is $69.00, down from $79.00 at B&H Photo.

Moving to Apple Watch Series 5, you'll find an average $15 discount on most models during B&H Photo's Apple Shopping Event. That means 40mm Aluminum devices start at $384.00 and 44mm Aluminum devices start at $414.00. This event also includes Nike+ and cellular models on sale, as well as $20 off Modern Buckle bands.

For iPad, there are numerous discounts on a variety of models. The 7.9-inch iPad mini from early 2019 is seeing a lowest-ever price on the 256GB Wi-Fi model, priced at $499.00, down from $549.00. Likewise, the 256GB cellular model is on sale, this one priced at $629.00, down from $659.00.

There are sales on two of the newest 2020 iPad Pros: $1,049.00 for the 256GB Wi-Fi 12.9-inch iPad Pro and $849.00 for the 256GB Wi-Fi 11-inch iPad Pro, both $50 off. Lastly, you can save on quite a few 2018 models; we collected a lot of these sales in a separate post this morning.

Head to B&H Photo to browse the full Apple Shopping Event, which also includes sales on MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac mini, and Beats headphones. We track weekly deals on all of these products in our dedicated Best Deals guides for iPad, MacBook, and AirPods.

I need the standalone ear pieces as mine barely give me 2 hours of use now. I have a newish wireless charging case.
 
Pretty good discounts, love B&H - hoping their people are ok since they're at the epicenter of this thing :rolleyes:
 
You must be rich for buying Apple stuff in the middle of what can be the biggest economic crisis since 1929.
 
Just ordered a set of AirPods 2 for my wife from B&H. Given she’s now working from home, just a room away from my office, I needed to get her off of speaker phone, so I can hear my phone calls.
Maybe she’s just trying to recreate the office experience so you don’t miss it too much 😀

What do you mean? What’s happening?

What do you mean? What’s happening?

It’s payback for her putting up with my LOUD phone calls from years ago when we worked together. That and the fact that she’s now doing so many Zoom calls with colleagues, and doesn’t have headphones to use with her rMBP. So hopefully these will help quiet things down a bit. I’ve been wearing my Plantronics BackBeat Pro 2’s a lot lately, which helps somewhat (w/ANC), but it’s still distracting when we’re both on calls at the same time.

I'm not surprised. It's costing them money every day they are sitting on their shelves. I'm sure they can use the money.
 
Avoid B&H at all costs. I bought a Mac Mini from them it was a lemon. They refused to take it back because I had opened the box. What a joke! They told me to call Apple. All Apple stores are closed and Apple will not allow you to mail in desktops and some other devices. So even if you must buy here check first on the return policy and check with Apple if you can mail it in for repair. I am out $800 and am using my 2014 mini which works slower than a sloth. I will never buy from B&H again given during this time they will not work with their customers.

Since Apple is not accepting mailing in devices for repair during this time, it doesn't matter where you bought it from. I've bought online from B&H many times and never had a problem.

What do you mean? He stated that the Mac mini was DOA. If this was amazon or best buy I could have easily mark it as bad and ask for a return and refund. Or even a quick exchange. I don’t see why you can’t return a Hardware after it is opened. This is mostly why I stopped shopping at some of these guys. Their return policy are strict and some are impossible to work with.

Actually it does, because Apple and most other online retailers are in fact accepting returns.

Not sure what repairs have to do with this since it is for a new computer, not something purchased long ago where the return window is closed.

Yeah, I'll never order from B&H again. I had to call them on the phone when they sold my father the wrong camera. Discounts are nice, sure, but I'd rather go anywhere else. Any BigBox still do price-matching?
 
"Apple Shopping Event"? Isn't every time you got to the store a shopping event? Do they really mean "Sale"? Like a discount event? Is the issue that the relevant wording is forbidden in Apple-speak?
 
I'm waiting for their $500 off Mac Pro sale to reappear. And yes, while some have lost their jobs, other are working overtime because they are in critical industries. I'm a writer for law enforcement and business resilience and article requests are coming in fast and furious.

Do you mean Macbook Pro? $500 off Mac Pro is um....not as great.
