Although there are not as many Apple products as we would like on sale for Amazon’s Black Friday event, any opportunity to save on the notoriously expensive products is one we will flag.
Here are our favorite Apple products on sale via Amazon.
Apple watches
Apple Watch SE (2nd generation) smartwatch — $179 (originally $299)
Apple released the latest Apple Watch SE in September, so now there’s an opportunity to save $70 on its second-generation SE watch.
As TPG’s resident Apple expert, senior aviation reporter Zach Griff said this watch has “become an appendage” on his wrist. It simplifies his travel experience, thanks to seamless access to boarding passes, timely flight updates and the ability to store his most-used credit cards digitally in his Apple Watch wallet.

Apple Watch Series 9 smartwatch — $329 (originally $399)
I’ve worn an Apple Watch since 2018, and it’s one of my favorite items I own. I rely on it daily for its workout-tracking features; from movement to steps to heart rate, it’s hard to take my watch off, even when it clashes with my outfit.
At a higher price point and lower discount, the Apple Watch Series 9 comes with more features, including touchless screen interaction and advanced health, safety and activity features. Its Sport Loop is not only sweat-wicking for workouts and weather alike, but it’s also durable, easy to clean and carbon neutral.

Apple AirTags: 4 Pack — 79.99 (originally $99), Individual — $23.99 (originally $29)
There’s not much more we can say about why we think travelers should be utilizing Apple AirTags if they routinely check luggage. This year, we’ve seen AirTags on sale a few times, but they’re worth their price with or without a sale. They offer peace of mind by providing your items’ location, even if the airline or responsible party for losing it does not.
