Amazon goes all out for Prime Day and Black Friday, but the retail giant is running another epic sale right now.

Say hello to the Amazon Big Spring Sale — your new excuse to splurge on Apple’s latest wonderful products.

The sale is set to wrap up on Monday, March 31, and there are discounts on a lot of Apple gear, like MacBook Pros, MacBook Airs, iPad Pros, iPad Airs, Apple Watches and more.

Basically, if you’ve had your eye on an Apple upgrade, now’s a good time to pounce — if you can sneak ‘em by your eagle-eyed spouse.

We’ve rounded up all the best discounts for you — just click here to check them out. Happy shopping! 🚀

Also in today’s newsletter:

  • The upcoming iPhone 17 Pro looks poised to offer 8K video recording for the first time. If you think this is high-res overkill, it’s not. It means you can heavily crop your shots and still maintain amazing detail.

  • Taiwanese chip giant TSMC is racing to finish another giant chip fab, which likely will produce advanced silicon for Apple — already TSMC’s biggest U.S. customer. Last year, I took I drive out to see the company’s first plant on the outskirts of Phoenix, and it’s ginormous.

  • Be warned: Before checking out this on-sale NSFW AI image generator — the sample images are def not safe for work.

  • We’ve been closely following xMEMS Labs’ solid-state headphone/earbud drivers as they roll out, and the company’s next-gen Lassen tweeter looks like a big improvement.

  • Zagg’s Tough Keys keyboard case for the new iPad 11 is designed primarily for kids and turns the tablet into a tough-as-nails faux laptop for school. Check out our hands-on review.

When I was growing up, a guy across the street had a Volkswagen Bug. He really wanted to make it into a Porsche. He spent all his spare money and time accessorizing this VW, making it look and sound loud. By the time he was done, he did not have a Porsche. He had a loud, ugly VW.
