Check out our full review of the M1 MacBook Air.

Even with the new crop of MacBook releases this year, the M1 MacBook Air from 2020 remains a purchase-worthy part of Apple's lineup. Most people won't need the power of an M1 Pro chip for day-to-day tasks — for that, a standard M1 works just fine. It's lightweight, portable, and boasts about 15 hours of battery life. Best of all, though, is its affordability, especially in a line of laptops known for being the opposite. The lead-up to Cyber Week brought about the return to the record-low pricing we've only seen a few other times throughout the year, and Amazon's sustained it in the lead-up to the holidays.

Why we like it

Just a couple of weeks ago, the 10th gen iPad dropped $30 to a new low price, but that record has already been beaten, thanks to this $50 price drop. The latest standard iPad offers a much-needed redesign, including the landscape front-facing camera. For iPad seekers who really only need the basics, we still recommend the 9th gen iPad, which you can grab for over $100 less. If you want a slightly stepped-up entry-level tablet, the 10th gen is available for $50 off at Amazon and Best Buy, though only the latter has it available in every color option.

Check out Mashable's official review of the iPhone 13 Mini.

The iPhone 14 is a hot ticket item this holiday season, but the iPhone 13 is by no means outdated. Its new MSRP is $100 cheaper on Apple's website, or you can snag a new 13 mini for free if you open a new line at Verizon on an unlimited plan.

Why we like it

Who wouldn't appreciate a sparkly new Apple Watch this holiday season, especially if it's one of the brand's latest? In addition to the ECG, blood oxygen, and sleep sensors from past generations, the Series 8 also comes loaded with temperature sensors for ovulation tracking and crash detection to keep you as safe as possible in moments of emergency. The biggest downsides are that as of Dec. 15, this deal is only available in the midnight colorway and is due to arrive after Christmas — but we're sure whoever your giftee is wouldn't mind waiting an extra day or so.

Why we like it

Check out our full review of the AirPods Pro.

The AirPods Pro were some of the first buds to prove that no, you actually don't need to double the size of your head via over-the-ear headphones to get pretty decent active noise cancellation. That claim to fame originally came with a $250 price tag, but thanks to the release of the new gen and some holiday deals, you can grab them for only $179. It's not the lowest price ever, but it's still a decent deal if you're not willing to shell out the extra $50 for the newer gen.
