Amazon's fall Prime Day sale discounts Apple's lineup, led by the Apple Watch SE 3 at $199, AirPods Pro 3 at $179 and new M6 Mac mini models at all-time lows.

The Verge reported that the 40mm Apple Watch SE 3 with Wi-Fi and GPS is selling for $199, matching its lowest price to date, while the 44mm version is $229. Cellular versions are priced at $249 for the 40mm size and $279 for the 44mm size. The Verge describes the SE 3 as the smartwatch it recommends for most people, and notes that the model, released in late 2025, added an always-on display, a wrist-temperature sensor, a more powerful processor and fast charging, alongside wrist flick and double tap gestures, 5G connectivity and on-board Siri.

9to5Mac reported that AirPods Pro 3 are $179, down from a regular price of $249, and that AirPods Max 2 are $429, about $120 below the $549 list price. The site described the promotion as the 2026 fall Prime Day sale, involving "millions of price drops."
