The Best Early Black Friday Apple Deals

[MacRumors]

Black Friday is already next week, taking place on Friday, November 24. Early Black Friday deals have been in effect since October, so we are firmly in holiday shopping season and you can get great deals across Apple's product and accessory lineup.

Note: MacRumors is an affiliate partner with some of these vendors. When you click a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small payment, which helps us keep the site running.

Because of this, we're highlighting all of the best early markdowns on Apple products and related accessories that you can already buy today. Some of the best include low prices on AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C, MacBook Air, iPad, and more. More information on these sales can be found in our Black Friday Roundup.

Of course, there is a chance that we could see better deals arrive on these products as Black Friday gets closer. This is a risk anyone has to take while shopping during the holidays, so with that in mind, many of the deals shared below are currently their best prices ever seen.

Best Headphones and Earbuds Deals

AirPods 2

One of the first and best discounts of the Black Friday 2023 season is on Apple's AirPods 2, which is down to just $69.00 at Walmart right now, from $129.00. This is a new all-time low price, and it beats the deal we've tracked throughout the year by about $30.

Update: this deal has expired.​

AirPods 2 for $69.00 ($60 OFF)​

AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C

Apple's AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C/MagSafe Charging Case is another great deal this season. The earbuds are available for $199.99 on Amazon, down from $249.00, which is a second-best price. We expect the $189 price tag to return before the end of the month if you're willing to wait for a return of that all-time low price.

Update: this deal has expired.​

AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C) for $199.99 ($49 OFF)​

Beats Studio Pro

The Beats Studio Pro just launched this past summer, and we've already begun to track a steep 43 percent markdown on Amazon. You can get these noise canceling wireless headphones for $199.95 in multiple colors, down from $349.99.

Update: this deal has expired.​

Beats Studio Pro for $199.95 ($150 OFF)​

Beats Studio Buds

Amazon has the Beats Studio Buds+ for $129.95, down from $169.95. These upgraded earbuds feature two distinctive listening modes with active noise cancelation and transparency mode, up to 36 hours of listening time, and four pairs of silicone tip sizes.

Update: this deal has expired.​

Beats Studio Buds+ for $129.95 ($40 OFF)​

If you want to save a bit more money, you can get the Beats Studio Buds for $99.95, down from $149.95 on Amazon. The main difference in these is a slightly lesser battery life at 24 hours total.

I don’t see any FineWoven cases for $35.40

 

[deebinem]

I'm not going to argue that it isn’t “getting old in age" in perception but simple email and web browsing? Hell, the used one I just got recently is running Ryujinx (Nintendo Switch), crushing Traktor Pro 3 in terms of CPU, upscaling my PS2 games to 2K (AEtherSX2) without even getting warm, and I haven't even started exploring running multiple AudioUnit synths at once in something like Logic or Ableton so I WOULD argue that it is so much more capable than just a simple consumption machine especially coming from an Intel based older machine.

EDIT: but at this point, I think it really should drop to something like $599 for a base 8/256

Absolutely agree. It also plays games substantially better than anything sporting Intel's integrated graphics. Really love the machine.

Holy, mother of g..d…. When everyone front runs black Friday, it’s pretty telling. “Move it or lose” is probably what retailers have been telling their store managers.

It makes sense for all companies try to clean their old inventory 😊 to make rooms for new one and for tax reason too.

 

[svish]

Good discounts. Looking forward to seeing even more discounts in the coming days/weeks

 

[Bryan Bowler]

Nice discounts, but regarding the "FineWoven" cases...I wouldn't buy one even if it was only a dollar!

I'm looking for a roundup of Black Friday deals like this for UK. Anyone know a place to find that?

 

[Morod]

B&H Photo has the M2 Mac Mini 256GB for $549 and the M2 Mac Mini 512GB for $699. No affiliation.

 

[burgman]

I'm looking for a roundup of Black Friday deals like this for UK. Anyone know a place to find that?

I assume one looks for Boxing Day deals since Thanksgiving and Black Friday are unique American holidays.

The UK doesn't exist. Stop spreading rumours.

Seriously, even though MacRumors has a UK writer working for them, their US-only focus is baffling. I'll bet that 10-20% of their traffic comes from the UK. Maybe even more.

The best prices on Apple stuff in the UK is usually Costco. This is all year round. Even if you have to spend £25 buying an online membership, you'll still save a lot of money and it's free P&P. Every now and again they run a special offer where things are even cheaper. They did this recently with 2nd gen AirPods, bring them down below £100.

You often get an extended warranty, too.

 

[Brooklyn_mac_user]

Beware the OWC deal on the HomePod Mini. It says it's supposed to be new but I just got it and it's clearly used. It was paired with another account and was scuffed and dirty.

 

[stlredbird]

Picked up the Airpods deal. Fyi apparently Best Buy won’t match any black friday deals, but Target matched it. (My Walmart was sold out)

 

[yoheywut]

No AppleTV 4K discounts?

 

[MrMojo1]

Waiting to see if there are better Iwatch deals.
The sport loop versions were $430 for 45 Lg size but $420 @Costco.
Maybe hold off until next year to see if the rumour for the newer Iwatch to include the blood pressure monitoring system is true or not. Cheaper to get a batter replacement for the S5.

 

[Jumpthesnark]

Apple Studio Display is $150 off at Costco through Nov. 27, so $1350 for the standard glass tilt model. https://www.costco.com/apple-studio...-adjustable-stand-2022.product.100948087.html

No AppleTV 4K discounts?

Apple TV 4K is in a sense already discounted. When they introduced the fourth generation last year, the new retail prices were $50 lower (even with twice the storage) than the third generation's had been. Whether Apple offers gift cards this year on TV 4K (they didn't last year given the price drop) remains to be seen.

Folks in the UK:

Costco has reintroduced its deals on AirPods. You can get the 2nd gen basic AirPods for £90, for example, compared to £130 at Amazon. The discounts are applied at the checkout, which is a little unusual, but works out fine.

Other AirPod models are reduced by around £15 on the already slightly discounted prices. Almost certainly makes them the cheapest place to buy brand new AirPods right now.

There are other deals on Mac stuff although I'm unsure how good, because I don't follow those prices. But the site has become treacle-slow when you search for Apple...
