Have you been considering the third-generation AirPods, but wish the price wasn't so close to the Pro? It might be a good time to buy. The newest AirPods are on sale for $170, or $10 below the sticker. If you're an Amazon Prime member, you'll get an additional $5 off. You have until January 31st, 2022, to return items bought during the holidays, but it's important to remember that the return policy is more strict than Amazon's.
You can buy the AirPods on Woot.
Apple's "default" wireless earbuds are getting a boost from the newest AirPods. The design is more comfortable for many people, but it's also better-sounding and has better bass. The longer battery life, water resistance, spatial audio and MagSafe wireless charging support help. If you live in the Apple community, you can pick these if you want a pair of solid, easy-to-use earbuds for video calls.
The catch is not so much that the bias is in the sales. We wouldn't rule out better bargains in the future, as the AirPods Pro have frequently been discounted. Silicone eartips can improve stability and noise cancellation is not much more than that. If you can find them at a lower price, we wouldn't rule out the ANC-equipped and potentially comfier Beats Fit Pro. If you like a more open feeling than the one you get with the AirPods Pro, these buds might be better for you.
