Amazon also has the 13-inch M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard on sale, available for $326.00 in Black and $328.99 in White, down from $349.00. These are also record low prices on the Magic Keyboard, and you’ll find similar delivery estimates of early October for these models.

MagSafe Charger

Amazon recently introduced a few deals on Apple’s new lineup of MagSafe Chargers, including the 1-meter model for $36.50 and 2-meter model for $45.50.

The new MagSafe Chargers provide overall faster charging speeds with compatible iPhone models. When paired with a 30W power adapter, iPhone 16 models can charge at up to 25W wirelessly over MagSafe, which is 10W faster than a regular non-MagSafe Qi2 wireless charger.

Apple Pencil

Amazon is discounting both the USB-C Apple Pencil and Apple Pencil Pro in the lead-up to Prime Day, available for $69.00 and $116.00, respectively. In regards to the 2023 USB-C model, this is a match of the all-time low price on the accessory.
