Apple products are extremely expensive. Whether you’re an Apple fan or an Apple hater, we can all agree: These things aren’t cheap. That’s why shopping holidays like Amazon’s Big Spring Sale can be a great time to save on typically expensive appliances. Although this Spring Sale doesn’t have deals on most of Apple’s latest iPhones or Apple Watches, there are some great discounts on previous generation devices — plus there’s even a sale on a brand-new iPad.
iPad A16 deals
Apple sells many different iPads, some with fancy features and increased price tags. But what most of us really need is Apple’s original slab of glass, which Apple apparently calls “iPad.” More specifically, many people call it the iPad A16, as this is the chipset the tablet comes with. Of course, this is no M-series SoC, but the A16 has no trouble running iPadOS 26, and I think it will have no problem running the latest updates for years to come.
This particular iPad only has 128GB of storage, which isn’t much for a tablet in 2026. That said, if you can practice some storage management, and use your iPad for streaming and cloud storage for the most part, you can get a cellular iPad for just $359.10. You can pay for a network plan if you want, giving you the opportunity to use your iPad anywhere you have cell service.
apple watch ultra 2 deal
The Apple Watch Ultra line is designed for extreme use cases, such as intensive hiking, diving or swimming. But its features may be good for casual athletes or anyone who wants the largest watch display Apple has ever made. While Apple’s Ultra 3 is $799, you can save a lot of money by buying the previous generation model — especially with this Amazon sale.
Right now, Amazon is selling the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for just $399.49. This is a very big thing. While you don’t get the Ultra 3’s S10 chip or 5G connectivity, the Ultra 2 comes with most of the same fitness features, including a depth gauge up to 40 meters and a siren. It also comes with cellular capabilities – you’ll have to spend an extra $100 to get the cellular version of the Apple Watch Series 11.
Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS + Cellular) deals
The Apple Watch Series 10, like the Ultra 2, is the last generation Apple Watch model. And like the Ultra 2, it’s perfectly usable today. In fact, it may be a better value than the Series 11, as it offers similar features at a discounted price.
However, the real advantage of this model right now is that you can get Apple’s “premium” titanium material at a deep discount. Typically, the titanium Apple Watch starts at $799 for the 46mm option. But during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, you can buy one for $499. My Apple Watch Series 6 is still going strong, but if it were showing even the slightest sign of failure, I would be retiring it in favor of this watch in a heartbeat.
iPhone 13 (Renewed Premium) Deals
If you need a new iPhone, you don’t have to go to Apple, or even your carrier. Instead, you can opt for an unlocked, refurbished iPhone for a fraction of the cost of a brand new unit. In this case, the iPhone 13 may be a great value: Amazon has big spring deals on the 256GB variant, and prices vary by color. Right now, the cheapest option is the Red version, a color Apple no longer offers on new iPhones, for $296.05.
What do you think so far?
Of course, it’s not a brand new iPhone with all the latest features, but it’s a solid device – even in 2026. It features Apple’s A15 Bionic chip, the company’s standard 6.1-inch OLED display, two 12MP cameras (one wide, one ultra-wide), and full compatibility with the latest version of iOS. Amazon says its refurbished premium products have no scratches on the displays, no cosmetic damage that you can see from 12 inches, and battery life that exceeds 90% of its capacity when the product was new.
iPhone 14 (Renewed Premium) Deals
If you’re willing to pay a little more for a slightly newer iPhone, Amazon also has a big spring deal on the iPhone 14. As noted, the iPhone 14 also uses Apple’s A15 Bionic chip, though it has an extra GPU core compared to the iPhone 13. (You may notice a slight advantage in graphics-intensive apps and games.) The iPhone 14’s camera is a little better, but doesn’t break ground on any grounds, and it supports Bluetooth 5.3 while the iPhone 13 supports Bluetooth 5. In fact, the only other major difference here is the iPhone 14’s lack of a physical SIM slot. If you need SIM card support, stick to the iPhone 13.
AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation (Renewed Premium) Deal
Apple’s AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation also get a nice discount during the Big Spring Sale — if you agree to buy a pair of refurbished premium earbuds. Right now, the earbuds are 21% off, meaning you can get a pair of noise-cancelling AirPods for just $118.15. It comes with modern AirPods features, like Transparency Mode, Adaptive Audio (which adjusts the volume based on your environment), and Conversation Awareness (which automatically lowers the volume when it detects you speaking).
The only hitch here is that these AirPods aren’t “brand new.” Again, these are Renewed Premium, which Amazon claims has higher standards for a refurbished product. That’s all well and good for iPhones, but AirPods are a different story, because no one wants the earbuds to be someone’s first wear. My hope is that in this case, these are “open box” items, in which someone returned unused AirPods after breaking the seal on the packaging. But since it’s impossible to know for sure, buying AirPods at a 21% discount is a risk.
