It might not be the best Apple Watch money can buy right now, but it isn’t all that far off this year’s Apple Watch Series 9 in terms of features and functionality. It still has an always-on display, lifesaving health features and a whole lot more to offer.
The M2 iPad Pro is the fastest iPad ever made and the gorgeous Liquid Retina XDR display ensures apps, games, and videos look stunning. Right now this 512GB model is available with a $100 discount to boot.
These AirPods Pro might have the old Lightning connector but they still sound great and have Apple’s H2 chip for instant device pairing and switching. They also feature much improved active noise cancelation compared to the previous model.
The AirTag is a great way to make sure that you never lose your keys, bag, purse, or just about anything else. And with four of them in this pack, you can put one on all those things you can never seem to find.
