Amazon’s latest Big Spring Sale is into its final day, and while the week-long event hasn’t been as big on tech as Black Friday or Prime Day, it’s still served up a few genuinely decent discounts on Apple devices. If you’re looking for a new iPad, pair of AirPods or Beats speaker, we’ve rounded up the best Apple deals going on right now below. In truth, most of these offers aren’t explicitly tied to the Spring Sale, and more than a few have expired since the sale began. Still, a number of Apple gadgets we recommend remain available for lower prices than usual. As a reminder, the deals below are not exclusive to Prime members.

Apple’s wireless earbuds are far from the richest-sounding or longest-lasting pair out there, and this entry-level model lacks wireless charging, Find My tracking and onboard volume controls. But it still gets you a host of Apple-friendly features — from fast pairing with iCloud devices to spatial audio to hands-free Siri — and its lightweight design should fit most ears better than past AirPods. If you truly hate the feeling of headphones that jut into your ear canal, they still sound a bit cleaner and more balanced than most open-back alternatives as well. Just keep in mind that this design inherently won’t block much outside noise. This discount ties the lowest price we’ve seen outside of select in-store only deals.

Apple AirPods 4 with ANC for $149 ($30 off MSRP): This version of the AirPods 4 is nearly identical to the base model, only it supports active noise cancellation and comes with a wireless charging case.

The ANC isn’t as effective as what you can get with a pair that fully seals off the ear canal, but it makes the earbuds a little more useful in noisy environments all the same. We gave the device a score of 86 in our review. This discount is $11 higher than the best price we’ve seen, but it’s about as low as the earbuds have fallen outside of that.

Apple AirPods Pro 2 for $170 ($79 off): The AirPods Pro 2 remain Apple’s best set of wireless earbuds, as they offer the full set of Apple-focused features, strong ANC, onboard volume controls, a (generally) comfy in-ear design and a warm sound profile that most should find agreeable.
