Those of you looking for a new iPadOS experience are also in luck, as Apple’s mini yet mighty iPad mini 6 falls to $400. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

Apple’s 15-inch M2 MacBook Air now $200 off

Apple’s latest 15-inch M2 MacBook Air is falling to its best price ever today. Courtesy of Amazon, the 256GB version of the most recent macOS debut now lands at $1,099 shipped across all four colorways. Down from $1,299, you’re now not only looking at a new all-time low, but also a $200 discount. It’s $100 under our previous mention and the first time we’ve seen anywhere close to this kind of offer. We offer a taste of what to expect in our hands-on coverage, which is only made better by the savings today. 

The shiny new addition to the macOS roster arrives as the new 15-inch M2 MacBook Air. It takes everything that has made the 13-inch counterpart one of the most loved machines ever from Apple and sizes it up to a 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display with 500 nits of brightness, P3 wide color, and the new aspect ratio with notched webcam. It’s still a compact build that is as slim as they come while still sporting Apple Silicon performance and 18-hour battery life.

Apple Studio Display

Apple Studio Display all-time lows arrive from $1,280

Woot today is now discounting an assortment of Apple Studio Display models to some of the best prices ever. Well, as long as you don’t mind bringing home an open-box model. Everything kicks off with the standard Studio Display with tilt adjustable stand at $1,280. Delivery will run you $6. Down from its typical $1,599 going rate, today’s offer amounts to $319 in savings. It is well under our previous mention, clocking in as a new all-time low at an extra $100 off.

Arriving as a new, more affordable version of the Pro Display XDR, the new Apple Studio Display is designed to pair with the new Mac Studio and all of the other M1/M2 machines. Measuring 27 inches, the 5K monitor is packed with the latest features from Apple including a 12MP FaceTime camera backed by Center Stage. The studio-quality mics and 6-speaker sound system are balanced by the A13 chip. Around back there is a single Thunderbolt 3 port with 96W host charging, as well as three downstream USB-C ports for connecting in peripherals and the like.

Apple can now replace internal battery of iPad mini 6 rather than the entire device

Apple’s mini yet mighty iPad mini 6 falls to $400

Apple’s latest iPad mini 6 is landing at its third-best price to date today courtesy of Amazon. Now selling for $400 in several styles, you’re looking at $99 in savings. This is within $1 of the second-best price, and $20 of the Prime Day mention – though this is the first chance to save in nearly a month. Apple’s latest compact iPadOS experience arrives as the latest iPad mini 6. It may be the smallest one in the lineup, but still delivers many of the signature features you’d expect like an edge-to-edge 8.3-inch Retina display and Apple Pencil 2 support. Throw in the A15 Bionic chip and Touch ID in the power button to complete the package.

I’ve been a huge fan of the form-factor myself since picking one up, though you don’t have to take just my word for it. Our hands-on review notes just how perfect its size is without sacrificing on performance, as well. 

Samsung’s just-refreshed M8 Smart Monitor on sale

Earlier this fall, Samsung refreshed its popular M8 Smart Monitor with a new 2023 version and now one of the first chances to save has arrived. Courtesy of Amazon, the Samsung 32-inch 4K M80C Monitor drops to$596 with its iMac-inspired design in tow. Down from $700, you’re looking at a new all-time low with $104 in savings attached. It’s only the third offer so far since first hitting the scene back in May, too. 

Samsung’s new iteration of the M8 monitor arrives with much of the same design and feature set as last year’s model. There’s still the sleek form-factor that makes this more like an iMac than a secondary monitor, housing a 32-inch 4K panel in the process. The smart functionality is another major perk, with onboard AirPlay 2 integration being joined by access to all of the popular streaming services, built-in access to Microsoft Office, and even video calling features with a detachable webcam. New this time around though is HDR 10+ support for the screen, as well as the ability to configure it in a portrait orientation with a pivoting stand. Our launch coverage further breaks down what’s new, as well.

Level’s invisible HomeKit smart locks now start from $146

Amazon now offers the Level Bolt HomeKit Smart Lock for $146Normally fetching $199, today’s offer lands as one of the best discounts of the year. It specifically undercuts Prime Day, with the $53 in savings today beating our previous mention by an extra $11. Standing out from all of the other models on the market, Level Bolt arrives as the Invisible Smart Lock thanks to its in-door design that hides all of the motorized deadbolt features out of sight. Most other offerings have large casings or housings that hang off the back of your door, but Level Bolt looks to keep the install looking as though it’s still traditional hardware. That unique design pairs with support for a variety of smart home features headlined by HomeKit integration on top of Ring, using a smartphone app, or just pulling out the old school key. We found it lived up to the novelty in our hands-on review
