While it doesn’t boast a ton of memory, it does have a decent amount of internal storage. Overall, the Mac Mini is great as a multi-use everyday computer, whether it’s just for you or the entire family.

iPad deals

Our pick: 2021 12.9″ iPad Pro (WiFi, 128GB)

$999 at Amazon (save $100)

Why we like it

Check out Mashable’s official review of the 2021 iPad Pro.

This iPad comes loaded with an M1 chip, meaning it’s up to more intense tasks like editing high quality video footage or rendering 3D models. Basically, it’s your best bet for an iPad that could feasibly be used as a laptop. While it might not be the best option for the casual user, for creatives that need their tablet to handle a little heft, this tablet is definitely worth a second look. If you are shopping for the holidays, it is important to note that this iPad is not expected to arrive until after Christmas, but hey, sometimes the best things are worth waiting for, right?

No trade-ins means you’re scoring decent savings, even if you don’t have a phone from the last couple years to hand over. With this no-trade in deal from AT&T, you can still shave off half the price of the iPhone 12 mini — a phone that’s easy to hold, packs plenty of power with an A14 Bionic chip, and has a pretty nice camera to boot.

Apple accessories deals

Our pick: AirPods Pro

$189 at Walmart (save $60)

Why we like it

Check out the official Mashable review of the AirPods Pro.

While they are a bit pricier than their all-time low Black Friday price, this is still a pretty great deal on some of the best noise-cancelling earbuds out there, especially if you’re already deep in the Apple ecosystem. We anticipate that just like years past, these will be a hot holiday pick, so if you’re having trouble grabbing them at Walmart, you can find them for the same price at Amazon.
