Apple AirPods Pro 2nd Generation: $169 (32% off)

With up to 30 hours of battery life via their charging case, the sleek Apple AirPods Pro 2nd Generation wireless earbuds deliver exceptional listening time, not to mention premium audio performance. 

These upgraded earbuds surpass the original AirPods Pro in every way. An improved wireless chip and enhanced active noise cancellation give you an immersive listening experience, and their attractive curves make them even more pleasing to the eye. 

For anyone who appreciates lengthy battery life and the very best sound quality, these are a fantastic choice. With all the upgrades over the previous model, including spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, the AirPods Pro 2nd Generation earbuds represent Apple's most advanced and best sounding wireless (Bluetooth) earbuds yet.  

This version of the AirPods now comes with a USB Type-C charging case that also supports wireless charging. Another feature we love: the touch controls built into the stems.


Apple AirPods (3rd generation): $120 (29% off)

If you don't need the fanciest AirPods, but still want something new, check out the third generation of the original AirPods. These are perfect for staying current and for everyday use -- without breaking the bank.

These AirPods come packed with features like spatial audio, Dolby Atmos support and longer battery life. They lack noise cancellation, however. You can get about 30 hours with the included MagSafe charging case, or up to six hours per charge on their own. They're not as advanced at the AirPods Pro 2nd Generation, but they generate really impressive audio.

These AirPods still receive regular Apple updates, so you'll get most of the new goodies the other newer models get. And of course, when you're using them with an Apple device, you get easy access to Siri and automatic pairing with each of your Apple devices as you switch between them.


Apple AirPods Max: $395 (28% off)
