Deals: 24GB Mac mini $150 off, M3 MacBook Air $450+ off, iPad Air, Twelve South MagSafe stand $60, more

Today’s Apple deals are now ready to roll starting off with another shot at saving $150 off the sticker price on Apple’s latest 24GB M4 Mac mini with the 512GB SSD. Next we move over to some clearance pricing on the M3 MacBook Air lineup – M4 models are still $150 off, but you’ll now find 24GB M3 variants at $450 off the list. The same goes for iPad Air – current M3 configs are $100 off but we have up to $400 off M2 variants right now. All of that and more awaits below. 

Apple’s 24GB M4 Mac mini with the 512GB SSD is now back down at $849 ($150 off)

While the deals we were tracking last week and over the weekend on the most affordable entry models have now jumped back up in price, Amazon has brought back its $150 price drop on the 24GB M4 Mac mini. Regularly $999, you can now land one down at $849 shipped to match our previous mention.

Considering the rest of the M4 Mac mini configurations on Amazon have now jumped back up to higher prices – they are still technically on sale but nothing quite as notable as we featured over the weekend, there is a chance this deal on the 24GB config might follow suit. It is, however, at the time of writing, $150 off again at Amazon, but there’s no telling how long this offer might stick around for. That said, B&H is also matching this price right now and will do so until June 27, or until supplies last – “limited supply at this price.”

Clearly the main draw for Apple’s latest, even more mini, Mac mini is the price. It is easily one of the best values in Apple’s current-generation lineup considering it starts at $599 and can, at times, be found down closer to $499 or a touch less.

The model we are featuring here today is certainly a more pricey investment, but it is also a more future proof one that doubles the internal storage to 512GB on the SSD and ups the RAM count to 24GB. I can personally make 16GB work most of the time, although it can chug a bit when running intensive Logic Pro sessions, for example, but the 256GB of internal storage is starting to feel seriously limiting – I will be going 512GB or better, even if I have to save up to do so, from now on with new Apple purchases (outside of iPhone anyway).

Amazon offers the 24GB M3 MacBook Air at $450 off the list price right now ($200+ under the M4 model)

While you’re not going to find this particularly notable deal on all of the colors, and it’s certainly not the new M4 model, we wanted to shine a light on the 24GB silver M3 MacBook Airthis morning. Amazon is now offering the 15-inch version of this configuration down at $1,249 shipped – that’s $450 under the regular $1,699 list price.

As we reminded folks yesterday, the M3 MacBook Air got an RAM upgrade when Apple eschewed the old 8GB configurations – this resulted in an effective price reduction across the lineup.

The model we are featuring here today carried a regular list price at $1,899 before the RAM bump, and a $1,699 list after. That means that at $1,249 you’re paying $650 under the price Apple charged for this machine last September, and $450 under the price it charged between then and the release of the new M4 models this year.

Speaking of which, let’s compare this M3 model’s deal with the M4. The 15-inch M4 MacBook Air with 24GB of RAM carries a $1,599 list price (Apple dropped the MSRPs on the new models by $100) and is currently on sale for $1,449. That’s not a bad deal by any means, but we have seen them go for lower in select colors, and it is also $200 more than the M3 deal we are featuring here today.

There’s nothing quite like bringing home the brand new generation MacBook or iPad, but if you don’t need the M4, chances are the M3 will be just fine for folks who would prefer to save the cash.

M4 MacBook Air still $150 off, but select upgraded M3 models are now $450+ off from $899

Apple’s latest 512GB M3 iPad Air now $100 off again, but M2 models are up $400 off from $599

While much of the all-time lows at $100 off across the M3 iPad Air lineup have come and gone now, we did notice a couple configurations back on sale alongside some ongoing M2 models at much deeper discounts. First of all, you will find the 11-inch 512GB M3 iPad Air back down at $799 shipped – that’s $100 off the regular $899 list price and the same discount you’ll find on open-box models at Best Buy right now.

While the deals on Apple’s iPad Air lineup have typically been in around the $100 range over the last couple generations, we have started to see some seriously deep price drops on the now previous-generation M2 models and we wanted to make sure they were front and center for folks.

While the M2 is certainly no M3, the actual user experience on these machines are very similar on a day-to-day basis if you ask me, and they look nearly identical. Unless you’re a power user or someone moving their entire MacBook setup over to iPad, the M2 is still a viable option for many and you can now score the Wi-Fi + Cell variant for $100 less than the Wi-Fi only alongside a host of other configurations courtesy of authorized Apple dealer Expercom via its Amazon storefront:

• 11-inch 128GB M2 iPad Air Cell $599 (Reg. $749)
• 11-inch 512GB M2 iPad Air Cell $699 (Reg. $1,049)
• 11-inch 1TB M2 iPad Air Cell $849 (Reg. $1,249)

Twelve South’s latest 15W HiRise 2 Deluxe 2-in-1 Wireless Charging Station now at $60 (25% off)

While we are still tracking one of the best prices ever on the 3-in-1 model at $99.99, or $50 off, we just spotted another listing at Amazon featuring the newer Twelve South Qi2 HiRise 2 Deluxe 2-in-1 Wireless Charging Station at $59.99 shipped in white. This is a regularly $80 unit that is still fetching as much directly from Twelve South now seeing a solid 25% price drop at Amazon.

While we did see the Glacial Blue model fall as low as $50 previously, today’s deal on the white is matching our previous mention and $4 under the price we featured before that.

I have been using this one ever since it came out as a secondary nightstand solution and it has worked flawlessly ever since – you can get some additional details and some hands-on impressions await right here.

The short-form takeaway is that this is a super clean, almost Apple white 2-in-1 charging station complete with a 15W Qi2 MagSafe pad for iPhone and a secondary wireless Qi pad for AirPods or a second handset on the base.

You can adjust the viewing angle of the MagSafe pad and you’ll a find a similarly higher-end build here as the 3-in-1 variant with a “sleek, modern, vegan leather-covered base.”
