Following up all of the fall Prime Day savings, we’re moving on to focus on Thursday’s best deals. This time around, you’ll find Apple’s original AirPods Pro with MagSafe charging down at $140 in a refurbished sale, as well as the first discount on Apple’s Alpine Loop band. Then go check out these official iPhone 13/Pro MagSafe Clear Cases at $25. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

Through the end of today, Woot is now offering the original Apple AirPods Pro with MagSafe Charging Case for $140 in Grade A refurbished condition. Down from its original $249 price tag, this is marking a new all-time low on the now previous-generation earbuds with $109 in savings attached.

While not the just-refreshed pair of flagship earbuds from Apple, these AirPods Pro still come backed by a comprehensive feature set. Active Noise Cancellation is one of the stars of the show, which is backed by a companion transparency mode, Spatial Audio support, and Hey Siri. Packed into much of the expected form-factor, the charging case will yield 24 hours of playback and now supports MagSafe on top of its original Qi and Lightning charging. Includes a 90-day warranty. Get all of the details in our launch coverage.

Just released alongside the new Apple Watch Ultra last month, the all-new Apple Watch Alpine Loop Band is now going on sale for the very first time today. Courtesy of Amazon, you can bring home the unique strap at $90. That’s down from its usual $99 price tag in order to save you $9 and deliver a new all-time low.

Sporting a unique rugged design that weaves together two layers of woven fabric, the Alpine Loop is designed for Apple Watch Ultra but also works with the larger of Apple’s standard 44 and 45mm wearables. The stitch-free look uses high-strength yarn to deliver on the unique top loop look with a corrosion-resistant titanium G-hook that slides into place for securing to your wrist. 

Amazon is currently offering Apple’s official iPhone 13 Pro MagSafe Clear Case for $25. Typically fetching $49, today’s offer marks the best discount to date at nearly 50% off. This is also well below our previous $39 discount, as well. The iPhone 13 version is also at $25, too. Outfitting Apple’s iPhone 13/Pro in a premium clear cover design, this case adds some extra protection while still showing off the look of your device. There’s a built-in MagSafe ring for taking advantage of the magnetic charging features, as well as a raised lip around the front to keep your screen protected, too. Whether you just want everyone to see the color of iPhone you picked out or plan on slipping a polaroid, Pokémon card, or something else in the back, this is one of the best clear case options on the market.

Amazon is now discounting a selection of Beats true wireless earbuds with free shipping across the board. An easy top pick is the new Beats Fit Pro H1 Earbuds for $160 in four different colors. Normally fetching $200, this is only the second time we’ve seen pricing drop this low with today’s $40 discount marking a return to the all-time low for the first time since back in July. The new Kim K editions are also on sale for the very first time at $179.95, too. 

Beats Fit Pro just launched last fall as the brand’s latest flagship earbuds and have rarely been on sale since. Delivering a workout-ready true wireless design, there’s IPX4 water-resistance and wingtip designs. Those in the Apple ecosystem will find its built-in H1 chip to be the star of the show, enabling Hey Siri support alongside fast pairing and more. Battery life clocks in at 6 hours, though the companion charging case will bump that up to 24. You can see how all of that stacks up in our hands-on review. 

If you just locked in the fall Prime Day discount on Apple’s latest 10.2-inch iPad, Amazon is now marking down a must-have companion accessory. The official Apple Smart Keyboard for 10.2-inch iPad is now on sale for the first time in over six months at $113.99 shipped. Normally fetching $149, today’s offer marks the second-best price of all time at $35 off.

Arriving with a folio style design, Apple’s in-house Smart Keyboard turns its latest 10.2-inch iPad (as well as some other devices noted below) into more of a workstation thanks to the physical typing experience. Pairing to your tablet via Apple’s Smart Connector, there’s no need to fuss with Bluetooth or recharging the accessory, either. Get a better idea of what to expect from our hands-on review of the iPad Pro version.
