Apple's new iMac M3 with 24-inch Retina 4.5K display costs $1,199
B&H is now offering Apple's new 24-inch iMac M3 for$1,199. This discounts the entry-level model with 256GB of internal storage and 8GB of storage from its regular price of $1,299. It matches the all-time low with a $100 discount, although this is only the third time we've seen it drop to such a low since launching late last fall. For comparison, the last discount was back in December. I just got a hands-on look at how things are going with the new iMac M3.
The story behind Apple's new 24-inch iMac M3 is all about the new internals. The updated processor means it can offer even better performance than before, which is even more remarkable considering we've never had an M2 form factor version. So the benefits from the original M1 chip to Apple's new 3nm system will be even more obvious, which is what I found in practice.
But even if you leave aside the updated chipset, you are still look at one of the most optimized desktops on the market. The 24-inch 4.5K Retina display remains one of the best on the market, and the sleek all-in-one design is still minimal.
New all-time lows drop the Apple Watch SE 2 to $189
A new all-time low is now available on the latest Apple Watch SE 2. Right now, Amazon is slashing the price of the 40mm GPS to$189. That's $60 off the regular price of $249 and the best discount on this moment. That's also $10 from our previous New Year's mention. A larger 44mm GPS receiver is also available today for $219. That's $60 off the regular effective price of $279 and is the second best price at $10 below our previous mention – very similar to the smaller model.
The Apple Watch SE 2 is a more affordable version of the company's flagship wearable, featuring almost the same design. Using watchOS 10, you get the ability to track everything from runs to heart rate to sleep, and a new built-in compass also complements your fitness journey. There's also crash detection and more in a Retina display-ready design with added water resistance for daily wear in the shower or swimming. All this is embodied in Apple's new carbon-neutral design.

GaNPrime PowerCore 65W from Anker connects to the wall
Anker's official Amazon store now offers its GaNPrime Power Bank for$68. Today's offer is below the regular price of $100 and is notably the first price cut in months. It had been out of stock for $70 since our previous mention in November, and now it's back with an extra $20 in savings. In our Tested with 9to5Toys review, we take a closer look at what to expect and noted that this is the Swiss Army knife of chargers. This model was not updated when Anker released its new Prime series earlier in the fall, so today's offer is still the latest version for this form factor.
Anker's GaNPrime PowerCore 65W comes as a hybrid charger for your Apple device that combines a USB-C GaN wall adapter and a portable battery. Its 65W power output can be distributed across two USB-C ports as well as a USB-A slot, and the built-in 10,000mAh internal battery allows you to refuel while away from home. I love the built-in AC outlet, which also makes charging easy.
