Amazon's October sale nibbles Apple prices without asking if you really need a new iPad

Amazon's October Big Deal Days are nibbling Apple prices, and the M5 MacBook Air at $1,099 is the thing I keep tab open on. Double the base storage, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, it's the spec-sheet razor clam that makes the $200 discount feel like a win instead of a trap. But the 15-inch version also lands at $1,299, and that's where my focus drifts. If your sights are set beyond Cupertino, the main roundup has 100+ deals and we're chasing price matches as they appear. Some of this is Prime-only, but other retailers are biting back. Meanwhile, over at our AirPods Pro 3 coverage, I dug into why $179 is the number that actually matters this week. Stay spooty.
