Cheap AirPods sales are everywhere this month. That's good news for Apple fans because it means there will be AirPods sales on every budget. In fact, the entire Apple headphone lineup is having the cheapest AirPods sale right now.
Amazon currently has the AirPods Pro on sale for $189.99. This is a $59 discount and the lowest price for Apple's premium buds. Meanwhile, if you want the cheapest AirPods, Amazon is again selling the AirPods for $109.99. That's $49 off and the best AirPods sale yet. In both cases, these AirPods sales are $10 cheaper than last week.
Generally speaking, AirPods sales fluctuate between $99 and $139 (for standard AirPods), so cheap AirPods sales within that price range are a safe bet; if it's $139 or more, we recommend waiting for the next AirPods sale.
Retailers such as Best Buy, Amazon, B&H Photo, and Staples are great places to find cheap AirPods; Verizon and AT&T occasionally have AirPods sales on Apple's premium buds. Other AirPods sale deals are listed below. (And for the latest discounts on other Apple products, see Apple's Best Sale Deals.)
Unfortunately, the Apple Store does not carry refurbished AirPods. Instead, the Apple Store sells AirPods at regular prices. AirPods with charging case are $159, and AirPods with wireless charging case are $199. [The AirPods Pro, on the other hand, is $249. The higher price is due to their active noise canceling, waterproof and sweatproof features, and a transparent mode that can filter out ambient noise. In a nutshell, these are the AirPods we've always wanted.
As for the AirPods sale, the standard AirPods hit an all-time low of $99 on Cyber Monday. They normally sell for $124 to $129. Meanwhile, AirPods with wireless cases hit an all-time low of $139 in early August.
The new AirPods Pro typically sells for $199. On Black Friday/Cyber Monday, the price drops to $169, which is not only the lowest price ever, but as good as the cheapest AirPods sale. We expect to see these prices again, but not as often as in recent months.
The Editor's Choice second-generation AirPods (2019) are great for most Apple fans. It's the most affordable option, uses Apple's new H1 chip for quick connectivity to Apple devices, the AirPods are smarter than the previous model (which is no longer available online), the AirPods have hands-free Siri, the AirPods are more comfortable to wear, and the AirPods are more comfortable to wear. That's right, instead of tapping a request to Siri on the elongated AirPods stem, simply say "Hey Siri" to activate the digital assistant wherever you are.
The pricier AirPods Pro offer the same features as the AirPods, but with added water/sweat resistance and noise cancellation. They also have a new, more modern design than the AirPods 2. Different sized ear tips are included to create a custom fit for your ears.
We've used the AirPods Pro in everything from running to high-intensity interval training. We've also worn the AirPods Pro in the rain and while sweating during burpee workouts. The buds fit securely in my ears and the sound is fantastic. They also have a transparency mode suitable for runners and pedestrians who want to keep track of their surroundings while listening to music.
