Prices have gone up on the latest MacBook models, and that’s just something we have to deal with, but Amazon is at least offering some serious price relief today – the base model 15-inch M5 MacBook Air is nearly $250 off the new list price. 

Samsung is once again offering up to $200 in savings on its latest flagship S26 lineup over on the official site. These deals are largely matched at Amazon still with select colors selling for even less, but let’s take a look at the “excellent” condition open-box units at Best Buy to save even more. 

Tuesday’s lineup of the best iOS game and app deals is now ready, including titles like Skul: The Hero Slayer, Children of Morta, Element – RTS, Hitman GO, Rush Rally Origins, and more.

Alongside a host of ongoing Switch 1 and 2 game deals below, including the Zelda: Breath of the Wild Switch 2 Edition and the Switch 2 Upgrade Pack at $7, we are also adding a notable price drop at nearly 50% off for Super Mario RPG. This is the proper physical boxed U.S. version of the game down at $33.75 shipped courtesy of Walmart. Regularly $60 and also available over at Amazon (but only via third-party sellers), this is among the lowest prices we have tracked on the updated Mario classic.

And what sort of remake are we going to get?

It’s not for everyone, and there are some great alternatives out there that you can get to fit, but for folks looking towards the first-party solution, this deal is within a couple bucks of the Amazon all-time low.

Price hikes have landed on the latest M5 MacBook Air lineup, and there’s no telling when they will let up, if ever. However, folks looking to land a new Air this summer can still avoid paying the newer higher prices at Apple nonetheless, as Amazon does have several configurations at $150 off right now. 

With competitor 4th of July sales mostly all long gone now, and Prime Day well behind us, we wanted to touch down this morning to highlight the ongoing all-time low you can land on Apple’s latest 2nd generation AirTag – the 4-pack of Apple’s AirTag 2 is still sitting down at Amazon all-time low pricing.

As most of us already know by now, Apple has increased the price on its latest MacBook and iPad lineups. While much of it has now hit Amazon and other retailers where the best deals are, the M5 iPad Pro is still holding strong with pre-price hike deals. Some configurations have jumped up, but you can still score $300 off the most affordable 13-inch model and as much as $420 off some of the others. 

The next-generation Samsung Galaxy foldable are very much on the horizon, but that also means we are getting some extremely deep deals on the current-gen Galaxy Z Fold 7.
