You’re not going to get a better price on AirPods Pro 3 or the all-time low on AirTag 2, but there is hundreds in savings on Macs and the lowest prices around on current-generation models. Check out this week’s best down below.

Tesla confirmed it will hold a Cybercab event in Austin on September 3, promoting it with a poster that reads “Exclusive Access: Cybercab.” It’s an invite-only affair for the top scorers in its Robotaxi rider sweepstakes, and Tesla says it will livestream the launch for everyone else.
