Apple Labor Day Deals Are Here: Save up to 30% on MacBooks and AirPods

Labor Day doesn't just mark the unofficial end of summer. The weekend also comes with some of the biggest sales of the year, including discounts on Apple tech tested by the Good Housekeeping Institute. Plenty of retailers are rolling out discounts, making this weekend one of the best times to score Apple deals.

Although Apple isn't holding its own Labor Day sale, over on Amazon, everything from AirPods to MacBooks are discounted up to 30%, with some Apple gadgets reaching their lowest prices of the year (yes, beating Prime Day).

Not exactly. Apple is currently running a back to school offer that's worth taking advantage of if you have family members headed back to college. Through September 30, college students, parents, and educators can receive a free Apple accessory—including AirPods—with the purchase of an iPad, MacBook, or iMac through Apple's Education Store. Select products, including Apple Pencils and Magic Keyboards, are also eligible for education discounts.

That said, it's worth cashing in on the discounts at Amazon since many of these deals are well below full price. Several Apple devices sold out during Prime Day, so whether you upgrade to a pair of AirPods Max or opt for an iPad that's great for travel, we suggest shopping with haste.
