Amazon is now shipping pre-orders for Apple's new Home View faster than Apple itself, with most models arriving on release day. The retailer is also tracking the return of its pre-order discount on the brand new Apple TV 4K, which is still shipping on release day as well. These offers join a $50 price drop on AirPods Pro 3 and up to $149 off the new M6 Mac mini.
The standout deal is AirPods Pro 3 at $199 shipped via Amazon, $50 off the regular $249 price. The set was tracked at $179 during the fall Prime Day, and that deal could return with Black Friday next month. For now, they sit within $20 of that special holiday price.
Amazon is also selling the new Apple TV 4K (4th Generation) at $289.99 shipped, against a regular $300, and delivering it faster than Apple in most cases. Unless a shopper has Apple Store credit or gift cards, Amazon looks like the clear choice on both price and speed.
Best Buy is offering the most affordable M4 Mac mini configuration at $649 shipped as part of its Deals of the Day. The new M6 Mac mini starts at $780, with a 16GB/256GB model at $780 (regularly $899) and a 16GB/512GB model at $950 (regularly $1,099) on Amazon. The M4 model remains one of the lowest-cost entry points to a relatively modern headless Mac.
