Amazon Prime Day 2021 is winding down — and with it are the slowly disappearing tech deals. Among the hundreds of thousands of products going on sale during Prime Day across multiple retailers are Apple products: The Apple AirPods Pro are 25 percent off and currently the best Apple Prime Day deal on Amazon, while other less notable discounts include the Apple Watch Series 6 and the 2020 Apple iPad, which have been at a slightly reduced price for the majority of June. While Apple products rarely go on sale — and some of the brand’s products don’t see many notable deals even on Prime Day — many retailers have matched Amazon’s Apple prices, including Target, Walmart and Best Buy, and have prepared for their own iterations of Prime Day sales.
To ensure the quality of these sales, we’re checking deal prices against price trackers like CamelCamelCamel, Honey and others.
