In the lead-up to Prime Day and the back-to-school sales season, we’ve been vetting numerous Apple deals. One of the best offers that’s crossed our paths this week is a phenomenal sale on the Apple Pencil 2 as brought to you by Best Buy. Normally, you’d need to spend $130 on this digital writing implement, but as part of Best Buy’s version of early Prime Day deals, the Apple Pencil is down to just $100.

Why you should buy the Apple Pencil 2

Using an iPad is a pretty awesome experience even without accessories, but the true potential of your Apple tablet is best realized by adding the Apple Pencil 2 to your workflow. About no larger than a traditional pen or pencil, the Apple instrument offers convenient magnetization to the iPad itself. When you’re done using it, just attach it to the tablet and enjoy the peace-of-mind that comes with never leaving a treasured accessory behind.

You’ll also be able to wirelessly charge the Apple Pencil 2 with a compatible iPad. This particular version of the Pencil is designed to work seamlessly with the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Gen), iPad Pro 11-inch (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Gen), iPad Air (4th and 5th Gen), and iPad mini (6th Gen).

Switching between different writing and drawing tools is an absolute breeze with the Apple Pencil 2. Whether you want to doodle while you’re waiting for your engine oil to be changed, or dutifully take notes during a lecture, a quick double-tap will toggle between the Pencil’s various writing presets.

This Apple Pencil 2 offer is courtesy of Best Buy, and if there’s anything we’ve learned about Best Buy deals over the years, it’s that they come and go very quickly. That being said, if you’d like to knock a few bucks off the normal price of a Pencil 2 for you and yours, we suggest taking advantage of this offer before the sale is over. We also tracked down some iPad deals you may want to have a look at.

As you might have noticed, the Cyber Monday deals have arrived. One of our favorite deals features a discount on the Apple Watch Series 10. It's down to $329 (instead of $399) - saving you $70 for Cyber Monday. That's the lowest price it has ever been on Amazon, so if you’ve been waiting to treat yourself to the latest Apple Watch, this is a great time. It’s one of the best Cyber Monday smartwatch deals still around. Hurry, though, we don't know for how long.

 
Why you should buy the Apple Watch Series 10
As our Apple Watch Series 10 review explains, “the Apple Watch Series 10 is another strong entry in the Apple Watch family, and a (mostly) easy recommendation”. It has a new, thinner design than previous Apple Watches, along with a subtle but welcome screen upgrade. It also has a new speaker and improved charging speed, so it’s a good upgrade for existing Apple Watch owners.

Do you have a tendency to misplace or forget your items? I certainly do, and I know I’m not the only one. Thankfully, I primarily use Apple products, like the iPhone 16 Pro, and Apple has its own item tracker. It's the Apple AirTag, and you can grab a four-pack for cheap during this year's Cyber Monday sales, as Amazon has it for $73, down from the usual $99 price.

AirTags are small and discreet pucks that can fit pretty much anywhere. In your purse, wallet, luggage, jacket, or whatever else. You can even put them on your keys, but you need an AirTag holder for that. There are plenty of AirTag accessories on the market, so whatever style you’re looking for, you’ll probably find something that matches your style and personality for your keys.
