As festive shopping approaches its conclusion, there’s still time to grab your preferred Apple products. Whether you aim to acquire a fresh pair of AirPods Pro 3, new Apple accessories, or a MacBook Air, the clock is ticking, but you still have the chance to move swiftly.
Check out the official 9to5Mac last-minute gift guide below.
## AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods 4
AirPods Pro 3 are certainly the top gift choice this holiday period. As mentioned in my comprehensive review from September, the AirPods Pro 3 are currently the finest items you can purchase from Apple. They are not only outstanding headphones but also provide health monitoring capabilities, groundbreaking accessibility options, and much more.
If you’re seeking something a bit more affordable, AirPods 4 are an excellent alternative. They come in two configurations, one featuring ANC and another at an even lower price.

**Best Buy**
## Apple Watch Series 11
Apple Watch Series 11 is a fantastic upgrade, particularly for those using an Apple Watch Series 8 or older. Inventory for Christmas delivery is becoming scarce, but it’s still obtainable in various configurations and sizes. Flexibility is key here. Be certain to verify shipping estimates for your area.
## Beats Pill
The Beats Pill remains one of my all-time favorite products available today. It features a distinctive design, exceptional sound quality, seamless integration with your iPhone and other Apple devices, and more.
## MacBook Air
Shipping timelines for the MacBook Air are tightening significantly. This is the most value-packed laptop in Apple’s offerings, but if you need it by Christmas, acting quickly is essential. A delay of just a few hours could push your order past Christmas Day.
Personally, I prefer the 15-inch MacBook Air. The blend of its ultra-slim build and larger screen is unbeatable.
## Mac mini
The M4 Mac mini offers the best value for your money in Apple’s product range. Make sure that you or the person you’re buying for has a keyboard, mouse, and display available.
## iPad
The iPad collection includes a variety of sizes and styles these days, making all of them fantastic Christmas presents. The standard iPad has more than enough capability for most users, while the iPad Air strikes the ideal balance for those wanting additional features without splurging on the iPad Pro. The iPad mini serves as a superb e-reader for anyone within the Apple ecosystem.
Some of these models have limited stock for Christmas, so verify before making a purchase.
There’s no better present than peace of mind, which is precisely what Apple’s AirTag item trackers provide. Whether you or someone you know tends to misplace keys or bags, AirTags are essential.
## Official iPhone cases
If the individual you’re shopping for already possesses (or is receiving) an iPhone 17 or iPhone Air, an official Apple case makes for the perfect stocking stuffer.
