Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale may have wrapped up, but there are still Apple discounts to be found, even if prices have crept up since the sale ended. The two-day event saw rare savings across iPhones iPads, AirPods, Macs and more, and while many deals have now expired, a handful remain lower than usual.

Apple almost never cuts prices on its own products, which makes these leftover offers worth checking out. We’ve spotted a few decent post-sale reductions on older (but still excellent) models, along with savings on accessories such as AirTags and MagSafe chargers.

Our team of IndyBest deal hunters and Apple reviewers have tracked prices throughout the event and beyond, rounding up the genuine bargains still available after Prime Day. They might not be at their lowest, but these are still some of the best Apple discounts around right now.

The best Amazon Prime Day Apple deals still live today

Apple iPad 11in

The standard iPad remains the best tablet for most people, and it still has more than £20 off post-Prime Day. This isn’t the all-singing, all-dancing Pro model, but it delivers a fast, fluid experience with a sharp and vibrant 11in display that’s perfect for everything from streaming Netflix to browsing the web and making video calls.

Apple AirPods 4 with ANC

The latest generation of Apple’s standard AirPods now come with the one feature they were always missing: active noise cancellation (ANC). This deal knocks £10 off the new buds, which offer a comfortable open-fit design, the ability to silence the outside world when you need to focus and excellent sound quality, according to The Independent’s tech critic, David Phelan. "Listening to music is exemplary, even with noise-cancelling off, offering decent breadth of sound and fidelity in vocals and mid-range notes," he said in his review.

Apple AirTag, four-pack

Apple AirTag, four-pack

Never lose your keys, bag or luggage again with this deal on a four-pack of Apple AirTags. These clever little trackers take advantage of Apple’s vast Find My network to help you pinpoint your lost items with uncanny accuracy. These featured in my review of the best key finders, the ultra-wideband (UWB) device gives you precise turn-by-turn directions leading you straight to your lost item, while calling on Apple’s vast network of devices to find your stuff when you’re not personally in range. AirTags also have “left-behind” alerts, so you can receive notifications if you leave the pub while your keys are still on the table. These currently have £35 off for Prime Day.

Apple Mac mini

The Mac mini is the unsung hero of Apple’s computer line-up, packing a huge amount of power into an incredibly compact and stylish little desktop box. Powered by Apple’s super-fast silicon, it’s a versatile machine that can handle everything from everyday browsing to demanding creative work. You can still save £80 on the machine right now.

Apple watch ultra 2 49mm

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is still £150 off at Amazon. Praised for its extensive battery life and dual-frequency GPS, this model was chosen as one of the best Apple watches by our tech critic, David, who said: "It's a rugged and effective watch, making it ideal for fans of extreme sports." He also liked that it had an extra button, "which can be configured to make it easy to launch a workout, for instance".

Apple AirPods Pro 2 IndyBest review

Apple AirPods Pro 2

In his review of the AirPods Pro 2, tech critic David Phelan noted that the noise cancelling worked so well that he couldn't hear himself typing his review. This feature, he said, “is noticeably better than on the first-generation Pro earbuds”. Other notable features include personalised audio, which made a “subtle but effective improvement” to the listening experience, and that volume can be controlled by swiping the stem of the earbud. The AirPods Pro 2 are still discounted by £20.

Apple Watch Series 10 Amazon Prime Day deal

Apple Watch Series 10

While it’s no longer the latest in the Apple Watch line-up, since the brand new Series 11 launched last month, the Series 10 is still an excellent option. It's thin, but it has a notably large display, and has a good looking design and some great health and fitness features under the hood – our tech critic, David Phelan, awarded it five (out of five) stars in his review. This deal on the Watch saves you almost £150.

Apple magic keyboard with touch ID

It includes touch ID, making logging in to your Mac faster and more secure. While we haven't tested this exact one, our tech critic, David Phelan, reviewed a similar model with the iPad Air and described the accessory as “brilliant”. If you’re invested in the Apple ecosystem it may be worth checking out.
