Following the breakout success of ‘Your Friends and Neighbors’, which stars Jon Hamm and wrapped its first season last week, Apple has extended its deal with showrunner Jonathan Tropper, Deadline reports.

After months of EU regulators breathing down its neck, Apple is finally seeing a happier kind of headline from across the Atlantic. And it comes courtesy of the new iPhone 16e.

If you’re Apple, this is the kind of internal document that you knew existed, but still hits hard. Especially in the middle of a global antitrust reckoning and internal… whatever the heck is going on in there.

A recently unsealed OpenAI file outlines the company’s ambitions for ChatGPT. In short? They’re coming for Siri with everything they’ve got.

WhatsApp is gearing up to launch a long-awaited feature: usernames. With usernames, users will be able to connect with others without sharing their actual phone number.

As we get closer to this year’s WWDC keynote, Apple has flipped the switch on its traditional X hashmoji.

The custom icon now appears automatically next to any post that includes #WWDC25, and it should look pretty familiar to anyone who’s seen Apple’s promotional art for the event.

Apple is said to be in talks with Major League Baseball to pick up streaming broadcast rights, especially focused on the Sunday Night Baseball games. The negotiations ensued after ESPN declined to renew its deal beyond the 2025 season.

The package of games that make up the former ESPN deal has drawn interest from Apple, NBC and others. It is likely the league will try to carve up the package into different buckets, to attract both a modern streaming audience and the eyeballs of traditional broadcast TV viewers.

We’re just days away from iOS 26, the freshly branded iPhone update, being fully unveiled during Apple’s WWDC keynote. Here is a roundup of all the rumored new iOS 26 features we’re expecting to see debut.

Beats has tapped in yet another rising athlete for its years-long campaign associating its products with a mix of performance and style. This time around, the ad is pretty cool. Literally.

The 2025 edition of the Fortune 500 is out, and Apple once again ranked near the top, while Walmart and Amazon remained firmly planted in first and second place, respectively, for the sixth straight year. Alphabet, meanwhile, was the most profitable company in the top 10.

WWDC is only one week away. Next Monday, June 9, Apple will unveil its major new OS versions like iOS 26, macOS 26, iPadOS 26, and more—including rumored major redesigns. Here’s how to watch the WWDC 2025 keynote live.

Within the broader smart TV and streaming box market, Apple TV 4K is a fairly niche product. It’s found nowhere near the success of most Apple offerings like the iPhone and iPad. But a new deep dive at Ars Technica explains why Apple TV 4K is the only real streaming option for privacy-conscious users.

Apple has some major shake-ups coming to its iPhone lineup in the next few years, starting this fall when the iPhone 17 Air replaces the Plus model. My current plan is to replace my iPhone 16 Pro with the sleeker 17 Air model rather than a new Pro. Here’s why.

Back from 2005 to 2009, Apple used to have a neat little software feature called ‘Front Row’. It essentially allowed you to utilize an with your Mac, and take advantage of a unique software interface for watching content. It didn’t last very long, but I think now could be a pretty unique time to reintroduce it.

MagSafe continues to be one of my favorite aspect of the iPhone. Like HomeKit gear, it’s easy to get carried away testing new accessories. But some products just do the job. Today, I’m revisiting two items I’ve kept in travel setup: the and the Anker 622 Magnetic Battery, 5,000mAh Foldable Magnetic Wireless Portable Charger with Stand and USB-C. Neither is flashy, but both are incredibly useful day to day.

The big-time Apple gear deals continue this week with more new all-time lows on select M4 MacBook Air configs starting from $837 and up to $248 in savings, not to mention the 24GB M4 Mac mini at its best price to date with $157 in savings. Next up is the new iPad A16 back down at $299 as well as just about every single M3 iPad Air model at $100 off again – and the Apple Watch Series 10 with Amazon all-time low pricing now at the ready again ahead of Father’s Day with up to $160 off the list prices. The Best Buy Father’s Day sale kicks off today and you’ll find everything else waiting down below.

Apple has been on an impressive streak with updates for its three-year-old AirPods Pro 2. You’d have a hard time finding another set of earbuds that’s received so many new features entirely via software. Among the most recent additions, Hearing Protection stands out as AirPods Pro’s most ahead-of-its-time feature yet.

We’re just one week away from WWDC 2025, which kicks off on Monday, June 9 with Apple’s keynote. Ahead of the festivities, Apple has started teasing WWDC25 with a new tagline: “Sleek peek.”

“A week of technology and creativity. All online and free,” Apple says.

Apple Intelligence doesn’t yet offer a proper chatbot experience, but it turns out Writing Tools can be coerced into behaving as one.

Bloomberg reports that we can look forward to macOS Lake Tahoe, aka macOS 26, when Apple unveils its new operating systems at next week’s WWDC.

macOS Lake Tahoe will of course include some beautiful new wallpaper, but if you want to get in the mood ahead of time, we’ve rounded up some wallpaper you can use today …

Apple TV+ kicks off the summer with a June release slate that offers a little something for everyone. There’s a Ted Lasso-style sports comedy, new children’s programming, a Sydney Sweeney-starring horror film, Bridgerton-like historical romance, and a prestige crime thriller from the team behind one of Apple’s best. Among Apple’s full June TV+ lineup, here are the three biggest shows to look out for.

While Apple regularly gets lambasted for lack of promotion for its streaming service, Apple TV+, the company seems to be trying harder in recent weeks. It just dropped a ‘New for June’ sizzle reel, hyping what users can expect to stream on the service this month.

The new premieres include comedy series Stick, movie Echo Valley, season two of The Buccaneers, and Taron Egerton drama Smoke. Here’s everything new on Apple TV+ in June …

The leisurely pace of Apple’s AI efforts has come under increasing fire, with the company accused of being behind the curve. But a new study on the dangers of AI chatbots suggests that other companies are not being cautious enough.

OpenAI had to recall a recent ChatGPT update, after it tried too hard to agree with users, resulting in an experience which was both absurd and awkward – but the problem is bigger than that …

Apple last week announced that iPads have joined the Self Service Repair program, enabling owners and independent repair shops alike to get access to manuals, tools, and parts.

The company said it was excited to expand the program to iPads, but a closer look at the details reveals both good news and bad …

Jony Ive and Laurene Powell Jobs – founder and president of the Emerson Collective, and Steve’s widow – have acknowledged that the iPhone played a role in the “dark” side of technology.

Ive has also said that his mysterious hardware AI device would not be happening without the support and investment of Powell Jobs …

Apple has appealed parts of the Digital Markets Act law citing user privacy concerns. Specifically, Apple is contesting the interoperability requirements that say data like notification content and WiFi networks should be made available to third-parties.

Apple says the DMA as written allows others to “access personal information that even Apple doesn’t see”. This is because features like notification rendering and WiFi network data are currently handled on-device and stored in an encrypted fashion, so Apple cannot see that stuff. However, the DMA does not necessarily require third-party agents who would be able to access this same data to commit to the same standards of privacy and security.

A few days ago and fifteen years too late, Meta released an official iPad app for WhatsApp. And while many celebrated the end of one of the most inexplicable software holdouts in App Store history, others asked the most obvious follow-up question: “Thanks! Can we have Instagram next?”

Yes, as it turns out.

While AI can help us do stuff, AI agents are tools that actually do stuff for us. A new open-source project shows how an ChatGPT-powered agent could complete tasks for us using our iPhones.

Here’s a fun one for Mac nostalgia fans: a new project by hobbyist Nick Gillard has taken the idea of mini retro builds to a whole micro level.

Called the pico-mac-nano, this is a working replica of the original Macintosh that stands just 62 millimeters tall (that’s 2.4 inches for you, Casey Liss). And what’s more, you can actually run MacPaint and MacWrite on it.

Earlier this year, Apple iPhone SE. Now that it’s part of the mainline iPhone lineup, many have wondered – will this be an annual refresh? Today, we’ll be recapping the rumors.

While in today’s edition of Power On, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman mentioned a quiet but meaningful upgrade coming to Apple’s SwiftUI framework, 9to5Mac has learned of a second welcome improvement for developers who have been eager but unable to go all-in on SwiftUI app development.

Long-time 9to5Mac readers will remember that the native Shortcuts app started as an indie project called Workflow, a clever, approachable tool that made automation fun and accessible to less technical users.

Today, Shortcuts remains a powerful utility, particularly on the Mac. However, compared to how agentic AI tools have reshaped how we think about automation, it’s feeling a bit stagnant. That may be about to change.

I was lucky enough to get an early look and hands-on experience with Satechi’s new line at CES this year, and I was immediately impressed. Satechi managed to bridge the gap between tech enthusiasts like myself, who appreciate cutting-edge features like Qi2 and MagSafe charging, and everyday users, thanks to their thoughtful material choices and versatile color palette. Here’s everything you need to know!

According to Mark Gurman in his latest Power On newsletter, Apple insiders “believe that the conference may be a letdown from an AI standpoint,” highlighting how far behind Apple still is. Still, Apple has a few AI-related announcements slated for June 9.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the name for the next version of macOS is set to be ‘Tahoe’, named after Lake Tahoe in California. This name will accompany Apple’s first macOS redesign since Big Sur in 2020.

Apple Intelligence has been off to a rocky start, especially when it comes to Siri. The assistant still has a lot to be desired, and that should definitely be at the forefront of Apple’s priorities.

Regardless, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that Apple plans on expanding current Apple Intelligence capabilities to additional apps in iOS 26, and I figured I’d throw out some ideas I’d like to see.

Welcome to Indie App Spotlight. This is a weekly 9to5Mac series where we showcase the latest apps in the indie app world. If you’re a developer and would like your app featured, get in contact.

Focus is a unique pomodoro timer app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro that makes it easy to stay focused and develop productive working habits. If you have a procrastination problem, this could be an excellent tool for keeping you on pace.

It recently got a new update with a redesign, deeper customization, and additional data with new charts/graphs – making it even more useful.

Things have been quiet on the front lately. Too quiet. In fact, sales are down for the second year in a row, and just last quarter, Xiaomi overtook Apple to become the top wearable brand worldwide.

The good news is that the Apple Watch line is due for a refresh. Here’s what’s coming.

There have been a plethora of varying rumors for Apple’s next generation spatial computer. Is Apple prioritizing a cheaper model, or going all out with a second generation Pro model? We’ll summarize all of the Vision headset rumors here today.

It’s long been stated that Apple has had the strongest commitment to supporting its older devices. The latest version of iOS supports devices as far back as 2018’s iPhone XS and XR, which are coming up on 7 years old. While that in itself is impressive, there’s a second level beneath the surface.

Rumors suggest that Apple will be implementing Google Gemini support within Apple Intelligence Siri sometime in the near future, alongside the already-existing ChatGPT integration. A recent backend update even revealed that Apple is already prepared for a Google Gemini integration to debut.

Last week at Google I/O, Google announced a number of interesting Gemini upgrades that might make Siri integration a bigger deal than we might think. Let’s discuss.

The 2025 Parallels Cloud Survey recently went live, and buried in the data is a trend Apple should be paying attention to. According to the survey, 58% of enterprises are actively looking Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) or Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) options for their employees. Half of them plan to roll something out within the next six months. What’s driving this adoption? Companies want a secure, scalable way to give employees access to apps and data from anywhere. This is exactly the kind of enterprise shift that Apple could quietly build around.

Heads up if you or someone you know is still rocking an older iPhone: WhatsApp is officially dropping support for several legacy smartphones starting this Sunday, June 1st.

Logitech hasn’t officially launched the successor to the , a.k.a. my favorite mouse ever, but it might be close.

The company recently submitted documentation for Bluetooth certification in Brazil, just as an (accidental?) teaser appeared on its official Instagram.

With just days to go before WWDC, the consensus is that Apple will unveil a big, visionOS-inspired redesign across its operating systems. And while some might be dreading a repeat of the iOS 7 announcement from a decade ago, it’s been long enough that many readers might not remember (or may have never even seen) what that overhaul actually looked like.

So here’s a quick refresher on what happened, and why this year will likely (I mean, hopefully?) be different.

According to a recent investor note from GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu, Apple might have a pair of surprises in store for the iPhone 17 lineup this fall. Most notably, Pu has seemingly changed his prediction that the entire iPhone 17 lineup will use a version of the A19 chip. Instead, he now believes the base model iPhone 17 will use the same A18 chip that’s used in the iPhone 16.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned living in a house with pets and the pollen in the southern US, it’s that indoor air quality matters more than we think. Air purifiers help lessen the problem, but when you can automate them, even better. SwitchBot recently updated the , and it now supports Matter and works natively with HomeKit without needing an extra hub.

If you thought the “iPhones are getting solid-state, haptic buttons” rumors were dead, well… so did it. But according to Chinese leaker Instant Digital, Apple is back at it not just for future iPhones, but potentially for other products as well.

In 2019, Apple launched the U.S.-exclusive Research app. It was designed to let its users enroll in health studies that would help shape new health-related features for its devices, as well as contribute to medical investigations with impact far beyond Apple’s ecosystem.

Six years later, the app is still going strong. And if you live in the U.S. and would like to participate, here’s how to enroll.

Apple has for years been fighting antitrust battles all around the world, most of them concerning the App Store, and most of them coming down to a single issue: having monopoly control over the sale of iPhone apps.

Opinions on both sides of the debate are strongly held, and there’s little sign of that changing anytime soon – but it seems to me that there is one thing we could perhaps all agree on …

Apple’s newest original film, Bono: Stories of Surrender, is now streaming on Apple TV+. And if you happen to own a Vision Pro, there’s also an immersive version that puts you right on stage with the U2 frontman himself. Well, sort of.

Apple Notes is easily one of the most powerful apps pre-installed on the iPhone, and recently, Notes added a key shortcut that unlocks two hidden powers in the app: instant conversions and equations.

Coming out of a 50% plunge in March, new data from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT) shows that non-Chinese phone makers saw a small, but welcome rebound in April.

Almost two months after Donald Trump first announced his… creative tariffs plan, the stock market has more or less moved on. The biggest tech stocks have bounced back, helped by AI hype, strong earnings, and a growing sense that most of the plan won’t come to pass anyway. Apple, however, remains in the red.

We’re officially just over a week away from WWDC 2025. While we expect big design enhancements and much-needed Apple Intelligence improvements to iOS, Apple has the opportunity to do something it’s quite good at: flexing its privacy prowess.

Alongside a host of ongoing deals across the M3 iPad Air and M4 MacBook Air lineup, this morning saw the 15-inch 24GB M4 MacBook Air drop in price again with up to $235 in savings. From there we move over to the M4 Pro MacBook Pro lineup where you’ll find the most affordable model at $285 off and higher-end configurations seeing giant $460+ price drops alongside a new Amazon all-time low on Apple’s latest black USB-C Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad, ongoing deals on Mac mini, and as much as $220 off the Sonos Ace ANC headphones. All of that and more awaits below. 

Apple has shared its third-ever App Store Transparency Report today. The report includes granular information on things like app removals and appeals, App Store user traffic, government takedown requests, and more.

Hollywood’s summer blockbuster season is in full swing, and one big new movie premiering next month—28 Years Later—will be especially unique: it was shot entirely on iPhone, including with a rig that held 20 iPhones at once.

Apple Glasses, per the latest reporting, are full steam ahead with a targeted launch in 2026. Until now, I haven’t been that excited about the new product, since its rumored features overlap heavily with AirPods and Apple Watch. But there’s one big advantage that’s changing my mind, and it’s something Apple’s other wearables can’t match.

Last fall 9to5Mac exclusively reported that Apple had a new, dedicated ‘Games’ app in the works for iPhone and more. Then this week, Bloomberg corroborated that report and outlined the timing: the new ‘Games’ app is coming this year in iOS 26 and more. Here are three features to expect.

The is unquestionably a strong product. It rakes in around 10% of Apple’s overall revenue and has more than twice the market share of Samsung, its closest competitor.

However, the market it helped create has shifted dramatically these last few years, and Apple hasn’t kept up.

Apple is set to expand its retail footprint in India by opening its third store at Bengaluru’s Phoenix Mall of Asia, as reported by Business Standard. The move underscores the company’s commitment to the Indian market, at a time when this growing partnership is provoking tension with President Trump.

With WWDC just around the corner, upcoming macOS features are likely to rekindle interest in Apple’s Mac lineup. Whether you’re shopping for your first Mac or upgrading an aging one, here’s the latest on what’s coming next.

With the launch of iOS 14, Apple introduced a bold new privacy feature: App Tracking Transparency. This new feature would require third party apps to ask for user permission to track across apps before they’d gain access to your advertising ID (IDFA).

Apple begun enforcing this in April 2021 with the launch of iOS 14.5, which is when non-complying apps would no longer be able to submit updates to the App Store.

Update: The FBI’s original directive mistakenly included two models, the E100 and E300. The agency has since revised the list to exclude them, and we’ve updated this post accordingly.

If you were spooked by yesterday’s news that thousands of ASUS wireless routers have been compromised by a botnet, and are thinking about buying a new router, here are some models to not add to your cart per a recent FBI advisory.

I love Mark Gurman’s scoop that Apple plans to introduce iOS 26, not iOS 19, alongside version 26 of macOS, visionOS, watchOS, and tvOS. It’s a different flavor of the same solution I thought about a few months ago but thought might be too much of a reach to share.

This week brought a surprising report saying Apple plans to rebrand all its software platforms with year-based naming. So, iOS 26 will launch this fall (think car models) rather than iOS 19. Could iPhone hardware be the next subject of change? Apple’s leaked roadmap may offer a clue.

The Apple Research team has published a pretty interesting study that investigated whether AI models can estimate heart rate from stethoscope recordings, even though they weren’t specifically trained with that purpose in mind. The short answer is: yes. And this is great news. Here’s why.

Over the years, buying an has become an increasingly confusing task. With multiple models and overlapping features and accessories, there’s no longer a clear-cut way to recommend one iPad for one type of user. Still, Apple does have a general idea of how it sees the iPad lineup and who each model is meant for.

Following the announcement at I/O 2025 last week, Google is more widely rolling out Gemini Live camera and screen sharing to the iPhone and iPad app.

File this one under “tiny, but significant”: if you default your iPhone camera to 3:4, Instagram will finally let you post exactly what you shot.

This is Rumor Replay, a weekly column at 9to5Mac offering a quick rundown of the most recent Apple product rumors, with analysis and commentary. Today: surprise Apple Glasses launch timing, iOS 26, HomePad’s arrival, and more. Here are this week’s Apple rumors.

In the streaming age, reducing churn is a huge priority for every streamer. Disney has largely done this by pushing subscribers to bundles, but now it has another tactic launching: Disney+ Perks.

Apple has big changes planned for the iPhone 17 lineup, headlined by the addition of the all-new iPhone 17 Air. Meanwhile, a new report today corroborates a change we can expect for the cheapest iPhone 17 model: a slightly larger screen.

Severance season 3 is actively in the works, but that’s apparently not the only new development brewing. In a new interview, Ben Stiller revealed that two spinoff ideas are being explored by Severance’s creative team.

After years of anticipation, CarPlay Ultra officially launched earlier this month. Many automakers have committed to working with Apple to support CarPlay Ultra in their vehicles. But what about those who haven’t? Here’s a list of major brands that are choosing not to support CarPlay Ultra.

The M4 Mac mini deals have been on fire this week and, while this one might not last for long today, Amazon has now dropped the most affordable model down to a new $489 shipped all-time low. That deals joins offers on upgraded configs alongside a new all-time low on Apple’s 15-inch 16GB M4 MacBook Air at $175 off and the best price to date on the entry-level 13-inch M3 iPad Air, Insta360’s Link 2 4K Webcam, and more waiting down below. 

A new Apple-funded study performed by Analysis Group says that the United States App Store “facilitated over $400 billion in developer billings and sales in 2024.” This marks 2.9x growth in the ecosystem since 2019, according to the study.

Most Mac users stick with their machines longer than they want to. Not because they love the slowdowns — but because upgrading is expensive, and reselling takes time most people don’t have.

That’s where Upgraded comes in.

It’s a smarter way to stay current — without the upfront cost or the trade-in hassle. You get a new MacBook, pay monthly (starting at $33.28/mo), and every 2 years, you’re eligible to trade up. It’s simple, clear, and now even more accessible.

And now that we’re approaching WWDC 2025 and macOS 26, it’s a great time to upgrade your Mac hardware and ensure you can run all of Apple’s new features.

Most of the hype surrounding iOS 19—I mean, iOS 26—focuses on the big redesign that’s rumored. But looking past design changes to actual functional upgrades, three of the best iOS 26 features are, perhaps surprisingly, powered by Apple Intelligence. Here’s what’s coming.

Thousands of ASUS wireless routers have been compromised by a botnet that has also been targeting Cisco, D-Link, and Linksys devices. The way in which routers are infected means that they remain under the control of attackers even if the firmware is updated …

Have you ever looked down at your Apple Watch on your wrist and thought to yourself, “I wish I could play my Game Boy games on here”? Yeah, neither have I. But now that I know it’s possible, I can’t stop playing or showing it off. My 6-year-old self would think I was crazy if I told him I could play Pokémon on my wrist in the future. But it’s 2025, and now this is possible and even works exceptionally well. Here is how to do this.

One of the bigger leaks from Bloomberg is that what we’ve all been anticipating as iOS 19 will instead be branded as iOS 26 (aka 2026).

In other words, Apple is switching from sequential naming to year-based naming. I think that’s a great idea – but not the silly car-maker business of using next year, for a very practical reason …

Yesterday, Bloomberg broke the news that this year’s software update for the Mac will be macOS 26 rather than macOS 16. The update is expected to bring a sweeping redesign to the Mac, and now we have the first rumors on which models will be able to update to macOS 26.

The ongoing saga of potential tariffs on iPhones continues. After Trump threatened Apple with an additional 25% tariff on iPhones, the worst-case scenario could see the cost of the most expensive model in the line-up exceed $4,000.

However, a federal court has ruled that the president doesn’t actually have the legal authority to impose tariffs at all, let alone the most extreme ones he has threatened, and has vacated the executive orders issued so far …

Mozilla has announced that it will shut down Pocket, its popular read-it-later app, on July 8, 2025. This means that unless the Digg acquisition offer turns into something, its users will have until then to find an alternative read-it-later app.

If that’s you, here are five potential replacements, although I know none of them will ever be able to fill that Pocket-shaped hole in your heart.

Just when it seemed like the internet had finally moved on from obsessing over Apple’s iPhone naming conventions… here we go again.

Apple TV+ is having a big year, but the Apple TV 4K streaming box still awaits its first revision since 2022—and that update is coming. Here are four features to expect when the new Apple TV 4K arrives later this year.

In early April, Opera showcased AI Browser Operator, a first look at its vision for agentic browsing in the AI era. Now, the company is detailing what that actually looks like: rather than being just a feature, Operator is part of an entirely new browser called Opera Neon.

After President Trump threatened to slap Apple with a 25% tariff on iPhones made outside the U.S., one of his top economic advisors is now downplaying the potential fallout of the proposed tax.

Apple introduced a major Control Center overhaul in iOS 18. But its work on the iPhone feature was far from done. Here are all the ways Control Center has gotten better with recent iOS updates.

Apple is planning a huge shakeup to its naming scheme for software updates. Bloomberg reports that this year’s iOS update won’t be called iOS 19 after all. Instead, Apple is planning to call it “iOS 26” as part of a new year-based naming strategy.

Here’s exactly what that means for all of Apple’s platforms …

Meta has growing ambitions in the hardware space, and per a new report that growth will soon inspire an interesting new direction: opening physical stores with retail workers, just like the Apple Store.

We’re just a few months out from Apple’s big fall launch season, but last week we received news that one expected product may be absent: AirPods Pro 3. But things may not be so simple. Looking more closely at that report, alongside other rumors, makes me optimistic AirPods Pro 3 will still launch this year.

Eight years ago, Apple acquired popular automation app Workflow, which later became baked into iOS as Shortcuts. Now, two years removed from their time at Apple, two creators behind Workflow and Shortcuts have a new app coming to macOS: Sky, which brings AI assistance to the Mac.

Even with growing concerns over U.S. tariffs and a cooling economy, the global PC market is on track for modest growth this year, according to new projections from IDC.

If you’re a The Morning Show fan, the wait is almost over. Apple TV+ has announced the season 4 premiere date and shared first-look photos of new cast members including Marion Cotillard (Inception), Jeremy Irons (Die Hard: With a Vengeance), and William Jackson Harper (The Good Place).

Today’s best Apple deals are headlined by some big-time M4 iPad Pro discounts, including a massive $400 price drop on the 2TB 11-inch model and a solid deal on the most affordable config at over $170 off. Next we move back over to the M4 MacBook Air lineup, as the 24GB 13-inch Midnight model sees a new Amazon all-time low alongside deals on other configurations, as well as the ongoing M4 Mac mini deals from $500. We also have some M4/Pro MacBook Pro models at up to $370 off, and a whole lot more down below including the massive PlayStation summer sale with up to $120 off PS5.
