Last Chance: Get the 2026 MacBook Pro and iPad Air for Pre-Hike Prices Before They're Gone for Good

Last week, Apple introduced major price hikes across a number of products, including Macs, iPads, and more. This week, Apple's newly increased prices have begun to hit third-party retailers like Amazon, but there are a few select products that are retaining original prices, which now represent solid discounts on each device.

There are now just three models left at notable low prices in the wake of Apple's price hikes. Prices start at $2,549.99 for the 24GB/2TB 14-inch M5 Pro MacBook Pro, now a $449 discount on the new price of this model. You'll also find two 16-inch devices on sale this week on Amazon, but we don't expect these discounts to last much longer.



iPad Air

Amazon has up to $350 off the M4 iPad Air, although stock is quickly dwindling compared to sales from last week. Prices now start at $559.00 for the 128GB Wi-Fi 11-inch iPad Air, a $190 discount on the newly increased price of this model.

Remember people. Buying to “save money” is not sound logic 😅

I just picked up a three month old m5 MBP 16/1TB w three years of AC+ for a great price. It's an upgrade from the m1 I purchased over five years ago that's been a workhorse, but I'd let the appplecare run out and had some water damage and worn keys. Still limping along, but I've been a bit nervous how long it would last. The updated Mac should keep me from rushing into the new OLEDs coming soon, at least until the dust settles..

Target still has an iPad Pro M4 256gb for $799.
Just be aware that it “only” has 8GB of RAM; which means it will not be able to run the most advanced local AI models in iPadOS 27. 🤷‍♀️

Definitely good prices. Don't think new devices will be available at similar prices any time in the near future.

Walmart still has MB Neos at the pre-hike price. So grab them if you need them. Target and Best Buy have already adopted the new prices.

That 14-inch 24GB/2TB MBP looks temping. But I upgraded to a 16-inch 48GB/1TB M5 Pro MBP earlier this year. I’d pick up a new iPad Air for my wife, but she insists on hanging onto her M1 iPad Air which, in all fairness, is working just fine. Just like her iPhone 14 that still has 93 percent battery life.
