We're witnessing some products drop back down to their record-lows from Cyber Week — specifically the iPad Pro — while others are hovering within $50 of those prices. AirPods and other Apple accessories aren't exactly popping off with discounts right now, but we'll be sure to shout it from the rooftops if and when we see them drop once more. For now, we've rounded up all the best Apple deals we could find this week. Happy shopping!

Why we like it

Check out our full review of the M4 Apple MacBook Air.

The M4 MacBook Air topped Mashable's list of the best laptops of 2025. While the 15-inch version is our top pick for most people, the 13-inch version is our favorite budget pick. Even at full price, it's a stellar deal, but on sale, it's a total no-brainer upgrade. If you don't require fancy specs for things like video editing and graphic design work, the M4 Air is a monstrous machine in a sleek, portable package.

As of Jan. 20, the 13-inch base model with 16GB RAM and 256GB of storage is down to just $799.99 at Amazon. That's nearly $200 off its list price and just $50 away from its best-ever price from Black Friday.

Why we like it

Mashable's tech editor took the M5 iPad Pro for a whirl when it was released in October and called it a "victory lap for Apple." Like most upgrades in recent years, the latest iteration isn't too much different than its predecessor. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as we loved the M4 model as well. It's extremely light at just 0.98 pounds and wildly thin at 5.3mm — that's even slimmer than the iPhone Air or the iPad Air. The M5 processor is shockingly fast and more powerful than the average user even needs. As Mashable's Timothy Beck Werth puts it, "Everyday use is wasted on this tablet." As of Jan. 20, you can get the base model with 256GB of storage and WiFi connectivity for $899. That's $100 off and matches its previous record-low from Black Friday.

Why we like it

There aren't a ton of Apple Watch deals floating around right now on new models. If you opt for the last-generation Apple Watch Ultra, however, you can save $250 on a model with both GPS and cellular connectivity. And the good news is you won't be missing out on much by grabbing an older model. The biggest difference between the newer Ultra 3 and Ultra 2 is about six more hours of battery life. Whether those six extra hours are worth an additional $200+ is up to you to decide. The Ultra 2 still beats the basic Apple Watch with a more durable titanium case, a programmable action button, built-in LTE, a depth gauge and water temperature sensor, an emergency siren, and up to 36 hours of battery life (up to 72 in low power mode).

Bad Bunnys halftime show sparked emotional reactions across the Americas. See the heartwarming videos now.

During Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show, millions of viewers experienced the performance together — cheering in living rooms, filming on their phones, and reacting in real time. But for those of Latin American descent, hearing their home countries named out loud during Benito's grand finale made the moment especially meaningful.

In his closing act, Bad Bunny transformed the stage into a celebration of the Americas. Dancers carried flags from countries across North, Central, and South America, while a massive screen behind him flashed messages like "The only thing more powerful than hate is love." He capped the roll call of nations with a declaration that "together, we are America," framing the finale as a moment of shared identity and joy.

For those watching at home, the emotion didn't end when the music stopped. Viewers immediately took to social media to document their reactions, sharing clips of their friends and families cheering, hugging, and erupting with pride when their countries were named — turning a televised performance into a collective celebration.

Together, these clips formed a digital mosaic of diaspora, stitched from small, intimate moments across phone screens and time zones. Each video captured the same feeling: that for a few minutes, home — wherever it was — didn't feel so far away.

Mashable's shopping team has spent quite a bit of time with Ultimate Ears Bluetooth speakers and we're big fans. We love the Hyperboom and Epicboom, but the itty bitty Wonderboom is one of our absolute favorites. If you're in the market for a portable Bluetooth speaker, we highly recommend this tiny powerhouse — especially when it's on sale.

As of Feb. 10, the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 is down to just $69.99 at Amazon. That's 30% off its list price of $99.99 and just 10 bucks shy of its best-ever price from Black Friday.

Our favorite sub-$100 Bluetooth speaker, the Wonderboom 4 fits in the palm of your hand but offers surprisingly balanced and powerful sound. As Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard noted in our roundup, "the sound profile is well-rounded and can get loud."

It can last up to 14 hours on a full charge, handles drops from up to five feet like a champ, and can be submerged in water for up to half an hour. We do wish it offered a companion app to customize the sound profile, but for a ultra-portable no-frills speaker, it's an excellent value.
