Deal Alert! Apple AirPods Are Still Available at Their Lowest Prices Ever at Amazon

Apple AirPods Pro, which are going to be a hot holiday gift this year, are at risk of selling out thanks to Amazon’s impressive Black Friday deals.  

Amazon launched its massive Black Friday 2023 sale, and it includes epic savings on all four Apple AirPods, marking them down to some of their best prices this year. Shoppers can get the popular AirPods Pro (second generation) for 24 percent off while this $190 deal lasts. And the most-reviewed AirPods (second generation) are 38 percent off, putting them at $80 while supplies last.

Amazon Black Friday Apple AirPods Deals

• Apple AirPods (Second Generation), $79.99 (orig. $159)
• Apple AirPods Pro (Second Generation), $189.99 (orig. $249)
• Apple AirPods (Third Generation), $139.99 (orig. $169)
• Apple AirPods Max Headphones, $449 (orig. $549)

While all four editions are a hit with reviewers and tend to be in demand during the holiday season, the second generation Apple AirPods, which are the brand’s most affordable style, may be the first to sell out.

Apple AirPods (Second Generation)

The second generation are the most basic in terms of capabilities, but don’t let that fool you into thinking they don’t offer an incredible experience. This now-$80 edition is the most reviewed of the assortment with 523,000 five-star ratings, and they’re a gadget you’ll become “obsessed with” and use “every day,” according to owners. 

They come with all of the standard features that made AirPods famous, including fast Bluetooth pairing, a truly wireless design, in-case charging that can be used on the go, and on-ear controls that let you skip or pause songs with a gentle tap. 

The earbuds last for five hours on a single charge, but offer 24 hours of battery life with the case. Plus, reviewers say the sound quality is “exceptional” for the price point. If you’re after an impressive under-$100 gift for the holidays, these are your best bet. 

The new second generation Apple AirPods Pro, which were released in September, are also at risk of running out quickly, especially considering that this Black Friday deal puts them at their lowest price to date. They are the most impressive of the assortment in terms of features, and that means they’re likely to be a coveted gift this year. 

Apple AirPods Pro (Second Generation)

This upgraded edition comes with all of the standard features, and a slew of new ones. Most notably, the earbuds offer noise cancellation (unlike the $80 pair) that’s now two times stronger than its predecessor. The Pros also now come with an extended range of tip sizes, making them more comfortable for various ear shapes and sizes. 

The second generation’s battery life improved, too. The earbuds last for six hours on a single charge, and the charging case now offers 30 hours of power. They’re water- and sweat-resistant, and the touch controls now allow for changes to the volume with a gentle sliding motion on the earbud. Plus, folks who tend to misplace items will love the added light and sound they emit when you use the Find My app to locate them.

As a shopping editor who’s tested hundreds of products, I wasn’t expecting to find the new AirPods Pro to be remarkable, but they’re one of the best gadgets I’ve used in years. You can feel confident that tech lovers, Apple fans, and anyone who’s always streaming entertainment will be delighted to receive these AirPods. 

Apple AirPods (3rd Generation)

Shoppers looking for something in between these two models in terms of price and features should consider the third generation Apple AirPods, which are also marked down for Black Friday. They come with the same battery life, sweat- and water-resistant design, and MagSafe charging as the Pro, but cost less. 

While they don’t offer noise cancelation, they do come with Apple’s personalized spatial audio technology (like the Pro), which offers every user a custom listening experience based on their head’s shape and size. It’s easy to set up with your iPhone in the settings section. 

Reviewers love the third generation too, giving them a five-star rating for their sound quality, battery life, and overall functionality. Owners call them a “great gift” and rave about the customizable spatial audio, saying it’s “like surround sound in your head.”

Apple AirPods Max Headphones

And for those who are after the look and feel of a more traditional headphone, check out the Apple AirPods Max. These beauties are the only AirPods offered in different hues, making them a bit more fun than the others, and all five colors are currently marked down. 

Just like the AirPods Pro, they come with noise cancelation and spatial audio, but they are unique in their on-ear design, which features comfortable memory foam ear cushions. While they don’t have any kind of on-the-go charging capability (you’ll need to plug these into an outlet), these powerhouses offer 20 hours of battery life on a single charge, making them great for travel, especially long flights. 

They’ve racked up more than 10,000 five-star ratings, and reviewers describe them as a “luxury” and call their sound quality “magical.” So even though they’re an investment, owners say they’re “worth every penny.” Gamers, anyone who travels a lot, or those who use headphones for long listening sessions will love these.  

These AirPods deals are just the start. Amazon has special savings on all kinds of Apple tech for Black Friday, including discounts on Apple Watches, iPads, and plenty of accessories. Given Apple’s huge following, rave reviews, and popularity around the holidays, many of these gadgets are likely to move quickly or sell out completely before Black Friday ends.
