Apple Watch Series 9 new all-time low at $299, AirPods 3 $140, USB-C Apple Pencil, more

All of Monday’s best Apple deals are now live and headlined by a new all-time low on Apple Watch Series 9. A discount down to $299 comes joined much of the same best-ever price on Apple’s AirPods 3 at $140, as well as the second-ever chance to save on Apple Pencil with USB-C at $69. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

Apple Watch Series 9 styles drop to $299

Amazon is now offering the best discount we have ever seen on Apple Watch Series 9. The savings today land on 41mm GPS styles at $299 each. That’s $100 off the usual $399 price tag and even beating our previous mention by an extra $10 to mark a new all-time low.

Now centered around the new S9 chip, Apple Watch Series 9 arrives with much of the same build as previous models – just with some enhancements. It’ll still provide the same fitness tracking experience as before, but now packs a 3,000-nit screen that can turn all the way down to 1-nit. There’s newfound pinch detection for one-handed interactions with your wearable that just rolled out earlier in the week, as well as a build that is the first carbon neutral release from Apple. 

Apple’s AirPods 3 return to the Amazon all-time low of $140

Apple’s latest AirPods 3 are now getting in on the savings for the first time in nearly 2 months. Courtesy of Amazon, the retailer is offering the earbuds for $140. This is the model with the Lightning-enabled charging case, which drops down from its usual $169 price tag. This is $29 off and matching the all-time low last tracked back in the beginning of December. 

Apple’s latest entry-level earbuds originally launched back in October of 2021 and then were refreshed with a new wired-only charging case last fall that takes much of the same page out of the pro version’s playbook as before. While you’re ditching the silicone eartips, AirPods 3 arrive with much of the same Spatial Audio support, as well as added water-resistance for tagging along on runs or workouts. Circling back to the charging case, there’s no MagSafe charging on this model, with only a Lightning port on the bottom to refuel when you’ve worked through the 30 hours of listening time.

Apple’s 10th Generation iPad drops to $349

Amazon is now offering the best price ever on Apple’s latest 10th Generation iPad at $349 shipped. Today’s discount lands on the Wi-Fi 64GB configuration, dropping it from $449 down to today’s sale price. It’s $100 off and matching the all-time low first set over Thanksgiving Week, while also marking one of the first times we have seen it drop this low. You can also save on the 256GB model at $499, down from its $599 going rate at $100 off. Get a closer look in our launch coverage.

Apple’s latest 10.9-inch iPad was just refreshed right before winter with a more colorful design and more mid-range specs that make this quite the compelling alternative to the more Pro side of the lineup. Powered by the A14 Bionic chip, the whole experience is centered around a 10-inch Liquid Retina display backed by True Tone. Then packed within that new form-factor are many of the staples we’ve come to expect like Touch ID in the power button, a 12MP UltraWide camera with Center Stage that now arrives in a design that’s dedicated more towards landscape usage, as well as Wi-Fi and 5G for more flexible connectivity. 

Apple Pencil with USB-C falls to new all-time low of $69

We’re now tracking the second-ever discount to date on the new Apple Pencil with USB-C. Courtesy of Amazon, you can now bring home the more affordable iPad stylus for $69. This is a new all-time low at $10 off the usual $79 price tag and marking the first price cut since all the way back on Black Friday. That previous discount had it at $71, so now you can save an extra $2. Dive into our launch coverage for a rundown of what to expect.

The new Apple Pencil with USB-C arrives as a more affordable stylus to use with the latest iPads. It sports the same build as the second-generation model that preceded it, just without some of the frills. There’s no magnetic charging, instead relying on the USB-C port that gives the accessory its name. It’ll still connect onto the side of your tablet with a built-in magnet, though, and makes another trade-off with the exclusion of pressure sensitivity.

Opal’s just-released Tadpole USB-C webcam is down to $129

Amazon is now offering one of the first chances to save on the new Opal Tadpole. This new, 4K USB-C webcam just launched last fall, and now it’s down to $129. Available in both white and black designs, each one drops from the usual $175 price tag. It’s 26% off, and now only the second discount. Our last mention was back in December at $140, and now it’s an extra $11 off to hit that new all-time low status. We took a closer look at what to expect from the ultra-portable design in our launch coverage
