Go Carbon Neutral with the new Apple Watch SE 2
Amazon is now offering the second-ever chances to save on the new Carbon Neutral version of Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen. Pricing this time around starts at $219 shipped for the GPS 40mm style, dropping from the usual $249 price tag in the process. This is $30 off, marking the second-best discount we’ve seen, and a rare chance to save on one of Apple’s latest releases. Not to mention, the added benefits of the environmentally-friendly promise. The larger 44mm models are also on sale, dropping down to $239 from its $279 price tag.
Apple Watch SE 2 arrives as a more affordable take on the company’s flagship wearables with much of the same design. Running watchOS 9, you’re looking at the ability to track everything from runs to heart rate and sleep, with a new onboard compass also supplementing the fitness journey. There’s also crash detection and more packed into the Retina Display-backed build with added water resistance for handling daily wear in the shower or tagging along on swims.
AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C down to $200
We’re tracking a pair of discounts today on the new AirPods Pro 2. Starting off, Amazon has the new and improved USB-C version down at $199.99 shipped. You’d more regularly pay $249, with today’s offer saving you $49 and marking the third-best price we’ve seen. This set has gone for $11 less just once before and is within $1 of the second-best price. If you can still live with a Lightning port, the original pair of AirPods Pro 2 are down to $189, saving you an extra $11 and matching the all-time low. Head below for the full rundown.
Even though USB-C is now found on the charging case to go alongside MagSafe support, it really is the software features rolling out today that make AirPods Pro 2 the best earbuds yet from Apple. Now outfitted with Adaptive Audio that dynamically adjusts noise based on your surroundings, the AirPods Pro 2 also can automatically turn on Transparency mode when it detects your talking to someone.
The earbuds also deliver all of the same features as the original pair, as the new AirPods Pro 2 now arrive with some improvements like enhanced audio playback to pair with the upgraded ANC and new adaptive transparency mode tech. There’s still Spatial Audio support, as well as Hey Siri integration, just all packed into a refreshed charging case with USB-C, Find My features, a built-in speaker, and lanyard loop. All of that is powered by the latest Apple H2 chip, as well.
elago’s magnetic aluminum iPad stand packs iMac vibes
elago’s Magnetic iPad Stand is going on sale for one of the first times ever. The brand’s official Amazon storefront is now dropping the accessory down to $94. It’s down from the usual $110 going rate and is marking a very rare chance to save. We first saw this iPad upgrade hit the scene nearly a year ago, and now it’s seeing one of the only price cuts so far – not to mention a new all-time low. We adored it in our Tested with 9to5Toys review, and my iPad has been practically glued to the stand since.
elago’s magnetic iPad stand brings iMac vibes to your tablet, working with everything from the iPad mini 6 all the way up to 12.9-inch M2 iPad Pros. It relies on a magnetic sticker that’s included in the box for connecting to the back of your tablet, but can also pair with a companion case that offers a more seamless experience. The stand is made from metal and has a hinge on the magnetic connector that lets you adjust the angle.
Save $150 on the new Beats Studio Pro
The all-new Beats Studio Pro are seeing one of the first discounts ever today. Courtesy of Amazon, these new headphones drop down to $199.99 shipped across all four of the different colorways. Each one would normally cost you $350, with today’s offer landing at $150 off. It’s the second-best price cut we have seen so far, landing within $20 of the all-time low from the beginning of the month’s fall Prime Day sale. Our hands-on review walks you through what else to expect, too.
The just-released Beats Studio Pro arrive as a new flagship in the lineup with an over-ear listening experience and all the bells and whistles you’d expect from that front runner status. Centered around active noise cancellation, there’s also a companion transparency mode to go alongside the even more exciting inclusion of Personalized Spatial Audio and Dynamic Head tracking.
Amazon clears out Apple’s FineWoven iPhone 15 cases
Amazon is now offering new all-time lows on Apple’s just-released FineWoven iPhone 15 cases. These new covers enter to replace leather in the official lineup, and now start from $30.93 shipped after you’ve clipped the on-page coupon. Each style is down from the usual $59 price tag and marking the best discounts we have seen so far – although these are only the second price cuts since launching last month. We take a hands-on look at the whole experience over at 9to5Mac, but if there has ever been a time to try out the new material for yourself – it’s now.
Apple’s new FineWoven cases wrap your iPhone 15 in an entirely new finish meant to replace leather. The new microtwill material is made from 68% post-consumer recycled materials, and has a soft touch finish to it that comes in different colors. There’s MagSafe support as you’d expect, as well.
