Amazon Restores $50 Price Drops on All Four Colors of Apple’s Affordable New M4 MacBook Air
Amazon has reinstated the $50 cash discounts on all four colors of Apple’s budget-friendly new M4 MacBook Air. While the $50 discount on the new Sky Blue option has lingered for a few weeks, the discounts on the other three colors have fluctuated in availability. As of this morning, you can find the $50 off at Amazon for the already reduced MSRP set by Apple for the new base-model M4 MacBook Air.
Apple has lowered the MSRP for the base of its new M4 MacBook Air by $100 this generation, from the previous $1,099 for the M3 lineup to the new starting price of $999. When combined with today’s $50 deal, this brings the price down to $150 less than the MSRP of the corresponding previous generation model – although the M3 is currently available for $899 on Amazon.
As previously mentioned, you can save up to $450 off your new M4 MacBook Air by trading in a prior-generation M3 model – all the information you need on that can be found here. For others, the $50 discounts are the best on the most affordable configuration, and they’re available for all four colors of the 13-inch 16GB/256GB model today.
As illustrated in the list below, pricing on nearly all other configurations has either stayed at previous discounted rates or increased, emphasizing how significant it is to see the $50 reductions on the most affordable model back again today.
- 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/256GB $949 (Reg. $999)
- 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/512GB from $1,169 (Reg. $1,199)

Apple Pencil Pro with Find My and M3 iPad Air Compatibility Now Available for $99 (Almost 25% Off)
After briefly going out of stock over the weekend, the Amazon deal for the latest Apple Pencil Pro is back at $99. This deal offers free shipping and delivers nearly 25% off the usual price of $129 for the flagship Apple stylus. After a rise in pricing and limited availability on this premium iPad writer ahead of last holiday season, the Pro was seen at the same $99 price point during Black Friday.
Last fall, we observed some fleeting deals that brought the Apple Pencil Pro down to as low as $89 on Amazon alongside a few quick offers around $94; however, such low prices have not reappeared since.
Having debuted last May, this Apple Pencil option was originally compatible only with the M4 iPad Pro and M2 iPad Air, but with the launch of the new iPad Mini 7, it now also supports that model – it is expected to work with the 2025 iPad models as well, but confirmation is awaited, especially concerning the anticipated entry-level iPad 11.
This tool is Apple’s most advanced and feature-rich solution, equipped with onboard gesture support and haptics, enabling users to do much more than merely jot down notes on an iPad – you can utilize gestures such as squeezing and barrel rolling to access tools, change brushes, and create strokes seamlessly. The haptic feedback allows you to feel shapes snapping into place, among other features.
On the M4 iPad Pro and M2 iPad Air, you can utilize Apple Pencil hover to “preview your mark before you make it,” and combine with Apple Find My functionality to locate your missing Apple stylus using your iPhone.
Apple’s Incredible 2TB 13-inch M4 iPad Pro in Space Black Now $300 Off (Amazon Low)
While Apple’s premium M4 iPad Pro configurations may not cater to everyone, the outstanding 2TB 13-inch model in Space Black is now listed at its lowest-ever price on Amazon, making it a must-see for interested buyers. This workstation setup usually costs $2,299 but can now be had for $1,999 shipped on Amazon.
For comparison, the current $300 price cut on Amazon beats Best Buy’s open-box price by nearly $100 – the new listings at Best Buy are still priced at the full $2,299 MSRP.
This high-end 2TB model is more of a niche purchase, ideally suited for those seeking a fully spec’d pro-grade M4 Apple tablet experience. You can also configure the 2TB model with Wi-Fi + Cell connectivity and a Nano-texture glass finish – technically, this is the highest model in the lineup but will run you $2,419 currently.
Not everyone may be keen on investing close to $2,000 in a tablet, which is understandable. However, if you are in the market for an exceptional configuration or planning to replace your MacBook setup with Apple’s thinnest and sleekest iPad, it makes sense to do so with a savings of $300, especially when the current Amazon price is the lowest to date.

Regularly Priced Up to $329, Level Apple Home Key Smart Lock Now Reduced to $145 via Amazon
Amazon is currently featuring a significant discount on the Level Lock+ Smart Lock with Apple Home Keys, now available for $145.50 shipped (in Satin Nickel). This smart lock typically retails for $329 and is still listed at that price at Best Buy. Although we have seen it dipping into the $180 to $200 range intermittently over the past several months, today’s deal marks a substantial $184 off the original price and the lowest available price anywhere, even better than our previous mention for this model by around $22.
There was a brief opportunity for a lower price during last year’s Prime Day events, and we have encountered some noteworthy deals for the black model at Woot without the full warranty, but today’s offer stands out as one of the best yet.
Please note, this version does not come with the Level Connect Wi-Fi bridge – that package typically retails for $349 and seldom drops below $270. Nevertheless, you can acquire the brand’s discreet smart lock solution with Apple Home Key support at a much-reduced cost today. Unlocking is as simple as waving your iPhone or Apple Watch near the lock, in addition to various keyless entry methods. This lock integrates seamlessly with Apple HomeKit setups and is compatible with the Apple home hub that many households already use – “this Bluetooth smart lock can be controlled remotely using voice commands (Siri), automations, shortcuts, and additional features (some may require a HomeKit hub within 15 feet of the Level Lock+).”
It is designed to fit “most standard American exterior doors” as well.
For further details, take a look at our long-term review of the Level Lock+ and visit our smart home hub for more price drops this week.
