Prime Day 2024 might not go live until next week (specifically, July 16 and 17), but you don’t have to wait to start scoring deals. Amazon is already rolling out discounts on everything from summer shoes to power tools, and even some Apple products are on sale. If you've been waiting for Prime Day to get your next pair of earbuds, Apple's 2nd Generation AirPods Pro are marked down right now to their lowest price ever.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) are now on sale on Amazon for $169—a 32% discount on their normal price of $249. These feature-packed wireless earbuds showcase the sleek design and high-quality construction Apple products are known for, so it’s no surprise they’re a hot seller on Amazon with nearly 10,000 sold in the last month. Better yet, these AirPods include four pairs of silicone tips, so you can get a snug, slip-free fit—no need to worry about choosing the correct size.
These AirPods are a top-tier pair of earbuds with all the features you need for travel, work, and daily use. Each AirPod is built around Apple’s proprietary H2 chip and a low-distortion driver for immersive, high-quality audio and exceptional noise cancellation, so you can work, read, or listen to music without distractions. And, when you need to be aware of your surroundings, the AirPods’ transparency mode allows you to hear the outside world. The AirPods are dust, sweat, and water resistant, and they pack up to six hours of battery life with noise cancellation enabled (and when you recharge them using the case, you can listen up to 30 hours).
Reviewers loved the premium sound and highly effective noise cancellation of the AirPods Pro. One shopper called them an “amazing upgrade” with “phenomenal” sound quality. “The audio is crisp, clear, and well-balanced across all frequencies…Whether I'm listening to music, podcasts, or taking calls, everything sounds fantastic.”
Other reviews were impressed with the AirPods’ ideal fit and conveniently long battery life. “The selection of rubber ear tips is nice,” according to one shopper, adding, “You will definitely find one that fits.” Another reviewer called them, “My favorite piece of tech I’ve purchased so far this year,” and was impressed with their endurance in day-to-day use. "If your AirPods' battery does get low, a five-minute charge gets you back to over 50%."
If you’re on the hunt for a new pair of earbuds, you really can’t go wrong with the Apple AirPods Pro, especially now that it's down to its lowest price ever on Amazon. Just make sure to act fast, because these are surely going to be one of Prime Day's most popular deals and are a definite sellout risk.
