Apple is now offering certified refurbished iPhone XS/Max models in various capacities from $699 shipped. Originally starting at $999 when released in September of 2018, this is the first time that Apple has offered them officially refurbished. If buying the latest-and-greatest iPhone doesn’t tickle your fancy, then why not grab last year’s model at a discount? The iPhone XS sports a 5.8-inch display while the XS Max offers a 6.7-inch behemoth. Both are Super Retina displays with OLED HDR panels. Plus, you’ll net FaceID, wireless charging capabilities, a waterproof design, dual cameras, and more. Apple refurbished products come with a full one-year warranty and all original accessories.

Elago has been behind some of our favorite Apple Watch docks over the last few years. Its W3 stand was an instant recommendation in our hands-on review. Subsequent releases have sustained this trend as the brand has mastered nostalgia in many ways. The new Elago W6 stand continues this trend with killer iPod vibes, bringing Apple’s iconic music player to your nightstand or desk in a whole new way. Much like Elago’s other vintage releases, this is a must-have for any Apple fan looking to show off their Apple Watch and keep it charged all night. Head below for more.

Update 8/21 @ 1:16 PM: Hot Wheels id is now available at Amazon!

Hot Wheels is likely a toy that you either played with as a kid or still have many of now. I still have quite the collection hidden somewhere in the attic, but enough about me. For the longest time, Hot Wheels have stayed just cars on a track (or in the air). Pieces of metal on wheels, nothing more, nothing less. Now, with Hot Wheels id, the iconic toy is entering the 21st century. Hot Wheels id is a new system that brings together both physical and digital play and is available exclusively from Apple.

When it comes to competing with the leather cases and watch straps produced by Apple, there are not many companies that have what it takes to offer the same level of quality and attention to detail. Of the few that do, Nomad prominently stands among them.

Earlier today, Nomad took the wraps off of its Natural leather collection. Although the company has gear for products made by Apple, Samsung, and Google, the products included in the new release are all made for Apple devices. The Natural leather collection is comprised of two Apple Watch bands and an AirPods case.

Elago is one of those companies that knows exactly how to make products that create a nostalgia for the products that we once could not bear to live without, but are no longer used in our day-to-day lives. Its latest Apple Watch stand is no exception. The W5 resembles the original Game Boy, an iconic portable game console that paved the way to where we are today with Nintendo’s 2DS, 3DS, and Switch.

After a very notable iPad Pro deal launched this morning at B&H, we’re now seeing the latest 9.7-inch iPad available in Apple’s refurb store for the first time. Prices start at $279 for the 32GB model and go up from there. All Wi-Fi and Cellular configurations are available. Free shipping applies on all orders and Apple includes an industry-leading one-year warranty with purchase. That said, we typically see new condition models for $50 or more off the regular price, making today’s refurb inventory much less noteworthy. In fact, during Black Friday the entry-level configuration was available from $249. Check out the entire inventory of 6th generation refurbished iPads here.

Apple now offering certified refurbished HomePods for the first time. Regularly $349, it drops to $299 in both Space Gray and White.

Apple’s latest Macs are shipping today, but if you didn’t yet pre-order then savings may be coming your way. MacMall is taking $35 off the entry-level Mac Mini. That brings the price down to $764 shipped. Even better? MacMall only charges taxes in select states at the time of purchase. Over the course of the last few years, we’ve rarely seen any discounts on Apple’s smallest desktop. While MacMall is currently only accepting pre-orders, this is a rare chance to save and also potentially defer taxes until April. This Mac Mini sports a 3.6GHz processor, 8GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD. On the back you’ll find a plethora of I/O, including four Thunderbolt 3 ports, two USB 3 ports and a HDMI port. Learn more in our announcement coverage.

Apple took to the stage in Brooklyn on Tuesday to unveil a host of new devices, including the latest iPad Pros. Students can already save $50 off at the Apple Store, bringing prices down to $749 for the 11-inch model and $949 on the larger 12.9-inch. This is the first discount that we’ve seen and likely the only price drop we’ll get until Black Friday. You can count on Thanksgiving week gift card offers and maybe $100 off. But otherwise, this is expected to be the best price until then. Apple’s student discounts are slightly better on the iPad Pro this year than previous releases, with $50 off instead of $20, but of course the prices have gone up significantly as well.

As we reported earlier this morning, Apple will be introducing a clear case for iPhone XR. While Apple has offered a number of leather and silicone cases, this is the first time that they’ve offered an in-house see-through option. But before you go running to the Apple store there’s something we need to tell you. Paying $40+ for a clear case is outrageous. As you’d expect, Apple is going to have a hefty markup on this new product while the market is filled with lower-cost alternatives. Head below for our roundup of the best iPhone XR clear case alternatives that cost a fraction of Apple’s official option.
