Apple's "Surprise and Shine" event Wednesday brought the announcement of a new iPhone lineup as expected, plus the first-ever foldable iPhone, but true to the name of the event, Apple had another release ready to go: the AirPods 5.

Amazon is now offering the 14-inch M5 Pro MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM and the 2TB storage capacity down at $2,699 shipped . Regularly $3,199, this is a straight $500 price drop and the best deal we can find.

Apple, Ugg, Dyson, and more big-names are already on sale

Amazon's $100 discount on AirPods Max 2 over-ear headphones brings the price down to $449. AirPods Max 2 are $100 off at Amazon for Labor Day, with four of the five colors eligible for the discount at press time.

Beats designed the Studio Pro Premium Wireless Over-Ear Headphones around a Custom Acoustic Platform that has 40mm drivers. The resulting product will run for 40 hours on a battery when ANC is turned off. With ANC enabled, the battery will last 24 hours. That means you’ll have enough power to cover an entire week’s commute using these headphones.

Well...Most of the updates to the AirPods 5 are found within. They have the same H2 chip as the old ones but include a brand-new audio architecture, new ports to move air, new drivers, new battery technology, and new algorithms that manage it all.

This version of the AirPods 4 doesn’t come with active noise cancellation, but that’s about the only bit of audio tech that Apple skipped on these buds, now just $99 at Amazon. The very un-entry-level-like H2 chip is the reason the AirPods 4 sound noticeably better on calls than their predecessors.

I wasn't planning to replace my Series 10 watch yet, but these new features changed my mind. I’m also intrigued by the tougher screen and the audio intelligence. I typically hang on to an Apple Watch for several years after buying the latest model.
