  "account": "Today, Amazon has begun its Prime Big Deal Days sale, but Apple discounts have already started running early. There's no need to be a Prime member to take advantage of these deals, which run from October 6 to 7, though doing so would grant access to all offers. Apple products are seeing some of their lowest ever pricing, including popular items like the Apple Watch, MacBook Air, and iPad. Below is a list of the best Apple deals currently available.\n\nFirst and foremost, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 are on sale for $179, which is an $80 discount off the standard retail price. This is currently the lowest price they've been available since their launch last year. The standout feature of these AirPods is their active noise cancellation, which provides full-bodied sound and fits a wider range of ear shapes than prior models.\n\nNext, the newest Apple Watch, the Series 12, is $50 off its usual price. Apple touts this model as having the most accurate heart rate sensing among wearable devices, making it a top choice for health-conscious users. Additionally, it boasts Siri AI-powered features such as the ability to transcribe the last 15 seconds of audio and generate a Cliff's Notes version of your entire day.\n\nFinally, those who prefer not to invest in the latest Apple Watch can save $50 by opting for the Apple Watch SE3. Normally priced at $249, it is now available for $199. This entry-level model offers features such as workout tracking, overnight sleep scoring, and more.",
