iPad

32GB — $280 ($329) | 128GB — $360 ($429)

The latest model of iPad features a 10.2-inch screen and support for Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard, though it still features the same A10 Fusion chip from the previous generation. This isn’t a bad thing, as it’s still perfectly capable of gaming, editing, and other intensive operations–though if you want more power that will last you longer, then the iPad Air is worth looking at.

The basic iPad is still great for games like Fortnite and Call of Duty Mobile, while also being a great way to stream movies and TV shows, read comics and books, and surf the web on the go. It also comes with either 32GB or 128GB of storage space, and you can pick between three different colours as well as whether it has cellular connectivity in addition to WiFi.

MacBook Air 13.3-inch

128GB — $900 ($1,100) | 256GB — $1,100 ($1,300)

The MacBook Air is Apple’s entry-level laptop, and it’s perfect for writing, casual gaming, and light editing as well as for entertainment. It comes in three different colours and boasts either 128GB or 256GB of storage space. The MacBook Air is perfect for working on essays and watching YouTube when the teacher isn’t looking.

MacBook Pro 13-inch

128GB — $1,050 ($1,300) | 256GB — $1,500 ($1,800) | 512GB — $1,700 ($2,000)

The MacBook Pro features more powerful specs than the MacBook Air, which makes it better for editing video, audio, and photos as well as gaming and other production activities. If you need something that can handle more intensive applications, then the MacBook Pro is right for you. The MacBook Pro comes in two different colours with three different storage space options: 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB SSD.

MacBook Pro 16-inch

512GB — $2,200 ($2,400) | 1TB — $2,600 ($2,800)

My Best Buy members can get the MacBook Pro 16-inch model, which is the most powerful of three MacBooks on sale–thankfully, it’s free to sign up for a My Best Buy account. There are two different versions: one with 512GB and an AMD Radeon Pro 5300M and one with 1TB and a 5500M. This MacBook is capable of heavy production and more intensive gaming, so if you’re looking for something with even more power to it, then this MacBook is the one for you.

Apple HomePod

$200 ($300)

The HomePod is Apple’s own smart speaker. It has Siri built-in, which means it can help you with anything your iPhone can but with a much higher-quality speaker–you will need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch to set the HomePod up. It comes with four free months of Apple Music for new subscribers only.
