Amazon Prime Day returns in July, and I expect this year's Prime Day Apple deals to be especially tempting. For bargain shoppers due for a summer tech upgrade or college students and parents seeking back-to-school savings on Apple gear, Prime Day is a can't-miss summer savings event.

I track retail trends and shop deals for a living, and here's what I've learned over the last seven years. Prime Day is one of the best times of year to snag deep discounts on MacBooks, iPads, AirPods, Apple Watch, and more.

Outside of Amazon's Prime Day sale, you'll also find alternative Prime Day Apple deals happening next month at Best Buy, B&H, and Walmart. In some instances, the best Prime Day Apple deals beat the Apple Education Store's all-year-round discounts.

So if your Apple gear is long overdue for a refresh, Prime Day is your golden ticket to scoring huge savings. Browse today's best early Prime Day Apple deals below and see our Prime Day deals hub for more savings.
