$22.50 per tracker is the number that matters in Apple’s latest AirTags Prime Day deal: the second-generation AirTags four-pack has dropped to $90, its lowest price yet, at Amazon and Best Buy.
The discount is small, just $9 off the usual $99 price, but it’s the steepest markdown seen so far on Apple’s newest tracker since it launched earlier this year, according to The Verge. The timing is sharper than the discount looks. The deal lands before July 4th travel and the heavier summer travel stretch, when luggage trackers move from nice-to-have to practical insurance against lost bags.
AirTags Prime Day Deal Puts Four Second-Gen Trackers At $90
Apple’s second-generation AirTags are now selling in a four-pack for $90 at Amazon and Best Buy, down from $99. That works out to about $22.50 per tracker.
Costco has the more aggressive bundle for members: a five-pack of AirTags for $99.99, down from $128.99. In plain terms, Costco is adding a fifth tracker at no extra cost versus the standard four-pack structure.
| Retailer | Bundle | Sale price | Listed regular price | Buyer note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Amazon | 4-pack | $90 | $99 | About $22.50 per AirTag |
| Best Buy | 4-pack | $90 | $99 | Same four-pack price as Amazon |
| Costco | 5-pack | $99.99 | $128.99 | Members-only bundle with fifth tracker included |
The AirTags Prime Day deal is not a blowout by dollar amount. It’s a rare discount on the current model, and that’s the point.
For shoppers who only need one tracker, the source material does not list a single-unit second-generation discount here. The value is in buying multiple AirTags at once, especially if they’re going into luggage, keys, backpacks, laptop bags, or shared travel gear.
“It’s not a big deal, but it’s the first time we’ve seen Apple’s latest AirTags discounted this heavily since they launched earlier this year.”
That line from The Verge gets the deal right. This is not a clearance-level cut. It’s a modest price break on a new Apple accessory that usually doesn’t need much discounting to move.
50 Percent Longer Precision Finding Makes The Small Discount Matter
The second-generation AirTag upgrade that matters most is the new ultra-wideband chip. The latest model can guide users to an item from up to 50 percent farther away than the original version, according to the supplied source material.
That matters because AirTags are more useful when they do more than put a dot on a map. For iPhone owners, AirTags can direct users with onscreen arrows, vibrations, and sounds, instead of only showing an approximate location.
The speaker is also 50 percent louder than before. That’s the kind of spec that sounds minor until the tracker is buried in a bag, tucked in a closet, wedged under a couch cushion, or hidden somewhere nearby but out of sight.
Analysis: The price cut is only $9, but the product being discounted is the newer version, not the original model. That changes the buying calculus. If a shopper was waiting for a meaningful gap between generations, the source points to two concrete improvements: farther precision guidance and a louder alert.
Apple also kept the parts of AirTag that made the original version easy to live with. The second-generation model still uses a replaceable CR2032 battery and keeps the same IP67 water and dust resistance rating as its predecessor.

AirTags sit in that same practical zone: they work because the iPhone does the heavy lifting.
Five-Person Sharing And Airline Location Links Keep AirTags Travel-Focused
Apple has kept AirTag sharing, which lets up to five people track the same item. That makes the device more useful for families, roommates, and travel groups watching the same suitcase, car keys, gear bag, or checked luggage.
The airline feature is more specific. Users can temporarily share a lost item’s location with participating carriers, including United, Delta, and American Airlines, to help recover misplaced luggage.
That does not mean an AirTag prevents an airline from losing a bag. It means the traveler may have a location signal to share when a bag goes missing, assuming the carrier participates and the feature applies in that case.
The Find My integration remains the core reason the source recommends AirTags for iPhone owners over many Bluetooth trackers. The second-generation version still ties directly into Apple’s device network and precision-finding experience.
Buying read: If you own an iPhone and need several trackers, the $90 four-pack at Amazon or Best Buy is the cleanest version of this AirTags Prime Day deal. If you’re a Costco member and can use five trackers, the $99.99 five-pack is the stronger bundle on a per-tracker basis.
The watch item now is availability and checkout pricing. Prime Day deals can shift quickly, and the supplied source only confirms the listed prices at publication time. If the second-generation AirTag stays near $90 through the travel rush, the discount remains modest, but useful. If it disappears, this may have been the first real buying window for Apple’s newest tracker.
Key Takeaways
- Apple’s second-generation AirTags have hit their lowest listed price yet at Amazon and Best Buy.
- The deal is timed for July 4th and summer travel, when luggage tracking becomes more useful.
