'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

Apple is a popular retailer and manufacturer of tech products, including iPhones, iPads, MacBook laptops, and smartwatches. 

Apple frequently refreshes its product lines -- one of the latest being the iPhone 14 range -- and this can open the path to discounts in the form of new, promotional deals for the latest gadgets alongside price reductions for older designs.

ZDNET Recommends

The problem with Apple products is that they usually carry a hefty price tag, and are rarely on sale. However, you can still find discounts -- large and small -- if you know where to look. 

Typically, third-party retailers, such as Walmart or Amazon, will be the places to find a discount on your new MacBook, iPad, or other Apple products. We've scoured the web to source the best deals on Apple devices, and so to find the best sales for expanding your Apple ecosystem, read on to see ZDNET's best picks.
