The most affordable Apple M5 iPad Pro models have hit all-time lows on Amazon today with nearly $200 off

Today we’re seeing some all-time Amazon lows on Apple’s latest iPad Pro M5 lineup. At this point, it was rare to snag either configuration for better than $150 off, but things are changing this morning. One of the highlights is the nearly 11-inch M5 iPad Pro 1TB model $200 off list price in brand new condition direct from Amazon. But perhaps an even more enticing option is the most affordable 11-inch 256GB, which has now dropped to a new Amazon all-time low. $799.99 shipped – also almost $200 off.

While the 13-inch models aren’t particularly striking prices right now, the three most affordable 11-inch configurations have now hit Amazon’s lowest price of $199 off the lists:

M5 iPad Pro 11-inch:

M5 iPad Pro 13-inch:

In addition to the price drops you’ll find in the lineup above, Amazon is now offering the 1TB 11-inch M5 iPad Pro below at $1,399.99 shipped. This is the regular $1,599 configuration, which now sees a price drop of nearly $200 on the Space Black and Silver models.

Before today, the best deal we tracked on this configuration maxed out at $1,449, or $150 off. However, with the price down nearly $200 this morning, we’re now looking at a new all-time low for Amazon and the lowest price we’ve seen in a brand new state.

Score Black and Natural Apple Watch Ultra 3 $155 off via Best Buy today (“Great Refurbishment”)

While we’ve seen a steady $100 price drop on the latest Apple Watch Series 11 in early 2026, deals on the Apple Watch Ultra 3 have been moderate for the most part. There are some light discounts on the brand new Ultra 3 models in condition right now on Amazon (see those below), but we also got a chance today to score the all black models and some natural variants for $155 off list price via Best Buy.

Here’s a quick look at the best prices for new Apple Watch Ultra 3 configurations before we dive into the “Refurbished – Excellent” offer via Best Buy below:

We’ve only seen a few chances at this point, and we’ve picked models to get deeper deals than the ones above — some configurations were $100 cheaper on Black Friday last year, but there weren’t many, and prices jumped back up very quickly.

However, the highly-rated third-party Network Store via Best Buy is now offering almost all black configurations of the Ultra 3 for $155 off, and some Natural models for the same price:

All of the above listings are listed as “Refurbished in Excellent Condition” units subject to Best Buy’s Return and Exchange Policy.

These 32GB M5 MacBook Pro models are $300 off this week (all-time lows)

Apple’s first big launches of the year are already almost ruthlessly set in stone, with new Macs launching as early as this month, including a new lower-cost entry-level MacBook and the delayed M5 Pro/M5 Max MacBook Pro models. But with all that in mind, and for people looking to land somewhere in the middle in terms of price and performance, we wanted to highlight the ongoing 300 dollars price drop on the M5 MacBook Pro that debuted late last year.

While Amazon has the M5 MacBook Pro starter configuration below $1,449 right now or $150 off list price, those looking to get a more powerful RAM and storage setup without spending anywhere near the price of the same configurations with the M5 Pro/M5 Max setup will want to take note of the $300 price drops on the 32GB models at B&H:

All of these configurations are the lowest prices we can find online right now, which gives you a lot of bang for your buck considering these machines feature Apple’s state-of-the-art M5 chip and are now selling for $500 or more than the (nearest) comparable M5 Pro/Max models will arrive later this month/early March.

One could suggest that you could get one of the lower configurations with the upcoming M5 Pro chip instead, but keep in mind that even the 24GB setup on the Pro chip will cost more than this, and much more if you configure it with 32GB of RAM—for example, the base M4 Pro MacBook Pro starts at $1,999 if you start right now with $200 of RAM and $200+ of RAM storage.

For the latest updates and expectations for Apple’s upcoming launch cycle, head straight to 9 to 5 Mac for details.

Today’s accessory and charging deals:

This 24GB M5 MacBook Pro is now $450 less than the configuration Amazon is selling

Amazon is still showing some price drops on the latest MacBook Pro M5 line $150 off the two most affordable 16GB configurations it offers, but we wanted to make sure B&H’s ongoing deals are on the radar while you can still save as much as possible $300 off 32GB models and $250 discount the most affordable configuration you can buy with 24GB of RAM.

The 32GB M5 MacBook Pro models are great prices at B&H, the best we can find anywhere, and actually match the lowest we’ve tracked them at, but the 24GB/512GB is probably more universally appealing to people who don’t want to hold out for the looming (and much more expensive) MacBook Pro M5 Pro.

B&H is offering the M5 MacBook Pro in Space Black with 24GB RAM and 512GB SSD down to $1,549 shipped. This is an official Apple Authorized Reseller configuration in brand new condition that would cost $1,799 direct from Apple — $250 off list price today.

As a quick reminder, this isn’t Amazon’s configuration that has any official capacity, which leaves B&H’s offering as the best deal on the most affordable model you can buy with 24GB of RAM. Amazon’s 24GB setup has a 1TB SSD and sells for $1,849 right now ($150 off the list price of $1,999).

For me, at least as of now, the 24GB/512GB setup is the sweet spot when it comes to Macs. You get a nice boost in RAM performance and plenty of internal storage for daily use/installation of heavy software and that sort of thing. Everyone wants 32GB of RAM and a 1TB+ internal SSD, but few of us need it, and moving from the 16GB RAM spec was a smart investment for me that added some kind of future-proofing to the spend.
