Best October Prime Day Apple deals

Amazon’s biannual Prime Day sales are an excellent opportunity to save money on Apple devices-over the years, we’ve found tons of deals on Apple products, including savings on AirPods, Macs, iPhones, iPads, and more. On October 10, a new sale will begin called Prime Big Deal Days and once again, we expect to see some great discounts on Apple products during the 48-hour extravaganza.

While many discounts are available to everyone, you’ll need to sign up for Prime to qualify for the exclusive Prime Day Deals (marked below). Membership also gives you free one or two-day delivery and access to Prime Video. If you don’t already have a Prime membership, you can sign up for the free 30-day trial. After that ends, the service costs $14.99/£8.99 per month or $139/£95 a year. Here are the best prices you can get on Apple products during the big sale:

Right now we aren’t seeing any major deals in the U.K, probably because Amazon needs to adjust its discounts to take in Apple’s recently lowered prices. We expect to see new pricing by Prime Day.

2. Be prepared before Prime Day

Prime Day deals will go quickly, as many offers are available as Deals of the Day, which means stock can be limited or last for only a few hours.

Ensure first off that you’re signed up to Amazon Prime to access the deals on Amazon. You don’t need to be paying for the service; you can be on the free trial.

Also, make sure your payment and shipping information is up to date to make sure you can purchase products before they sell out.

If you come across a deal that has sold out, you can usually join the waitlist to be alerted to any stock that becomes available, usually because someone has decided they don’t want to purchase it after all, and removes it from their basket.

You can also use the “Watch this Deal” button on upcoming deals to be alerted when they become available.

3. Keep an eye on our deal selections

With a team of Apple-breathing experts browsing through deals and offers every day (literally), you can be sure if there’s a top offer out there. See only the best deals on Macworld right here.
