Amazon’s big October Prime Day extravaganza has returned for another year, bringing with it the best Apple Prime Day deals. Earlier this summer, Apple bumped up the price of its MacBooks and iPads, with iPhones and even Apple Watches getting a price hike last month when the tech giant launched the iPhone 18 Pro . Thankfully, Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale (still a mouthful) is here, and there are plenty of deals to be found when it comes to tech from Apple.
I’ve been tracking Prime Day deals for an entire decade, so I know what’s worth your dosh. Right now, the biggest savings can be found on last year’s Apple Watch Series 11 and the Apple Watch Ultra 3. The two-day blitz of deals is exclusively for Amazon Prime subscribers, so you’ll need an Amazon Prime subscription if you want to save.
Amazon Prime Day lasts until 7 October, and your trusty deal hunters here at The Independent will be sniffing out the biggest savings on everything from dehumidifiers and heated clothes airers to Kindles and more. But for Apple, I’ve got you covered. Read more: Best Amazon Prime Day deals, live Apple Watch Series 11 If you’re hunting down a new smartwatch, then Amazon has slashed the price of last year’s Apple Watch Series 11 by a huge £60.
Called the sleekest watch out of the bunch by tech critic David Phelan , it has the most versatile looks: equally suited to a workout at the gym and a dressy evening out. “It has almost all the features and capabilities of Ultra 3, lacking the useful action button and satellite connection but little else,” he said in his Apple Watch Series 11 review . “For me, this is the Goldilocks Apple Watch, and the Series 11 is easily the best iteration yet.” MacBook Pro, 16in, M4 Pro If you need a laptop that will last you years upon years, then Amazon’s slashed the price of the 2024 16in Apple MacBook Pro laptop with its ultra powerful M4 Pro chip by a huge £700.
“The MacBook Pro is astonishingly fast, with enough power not just to run heavy-duty programs but to run them for long sessions,” tech critic David Phelan after testing the laptop. “This is an expensive laptop, but Apple crams in so much, with exceptional components and dizzying power, it offers strong value. While many users will find the more affordable MacBook Air is enough, if you want the best laptop around, this is it.” Apple Watch Ultra 3 For those who want a rugged smartwatch, perfect for hikes, extreme sports and diving, then Amazon’s slashed the price of the Apple Watch Ultra 3 with both GPS and cellular connectivity by £80.
“If you want the biggest display, longest battery life and a convenient extra button, it’s worth spending the extra money on the Apple Watch Ultra 3,” said David Phelan in his Apple Watch Ultra 3 review . “It’s the most powerful and effective Watch, not least thanks to its new display tech and important extras like satellite connectivity.” For more, we’ve found the best Kindle Prime Day deals
