Prices on Apple gear shot up this year. Thanks to ongoing memory and storage shortages, the cost of Macs, iPads, Apple TV, and HomePod has climbed as much as a few hundred dollars each. All this makes Labor Day worth circling on your calendar. Apple isn't exactly famous for discounts, but the holiday weekend has retailers cutting prices on AirPods , iPads, and MacBooks . With the higher prices in full effect, these markdowns are a rare chance to save, whether you're heading back to school or upgrading your home setup.
Apple AirPods Labor Day Deals
Apple left AirPods prices untouched in this year's hike, and right now we're seeing some great discounts. The entry-level AirPods 4 are the easy impulse buy, especially if you don't care about features like noise cancellation; however, if you do want to block out a noisy roommate, you can snag the third-generation AirPods Pro at a solid $50 off. The AirPods Max 2 are also on sale, giving you plenty of options to choose from. You can also save on Beats audio, which are part of the Apple family and share much of the same under-the-hood tech.

Apple MacBook and iPad Labor Day Deals
Macs have been hit hardest by Apple's price increases, and they're also where the discounts get smaller. Even a modest discount is worth a look. The MacBook Air is the one most students and everyday users should buy, because it's light, fast enough for 99 percent of tasks, and has a battery that will last all day. If you actually need the extra power to edit 4K video files, you can save up to $240 off the step-up MacBook Pro . An iPad is a great option for young people getting their first device, and the entry-level model is $400 right now.

AirTags and Accessories
If you already own all the Apple gear you need, Labor Day is a great opportunity to save on things like AirTags and other accessories. I bought the four-pack of the AirTags and put one on my car keys, in my backpack, on my bike, and in my Nintendo Switch 2 case. Elsewhere, you'll find deals on the Apple Pencil , a MagSafe charger for topping off an iPhone, and other desk essentials you may need at home or at the office.
