There’s a reason these headphones are the crown jewel of Apple’s lineup. They are simply good. AirPods Pro easily made our list best wireless headphones. We called them “a huge improvement over previous models” and noted the excellent sound quality and active noise cancellation. The transparency mode sounds more natural than competing products, and the new swipe gesture works better than one might think.
We also praised in our official review in the included charging case. We loved the built-in speaker that helps locate the headphones and alerts users when the battery is low. Six hours for the headphones and 30 hours of battery life with repeated trips to the charging case is spot on. It has multi-point connectivity, IPX4 water resistance and simulated spatial audio. Did we mention they sound fantastic, especially for headphones?
The downside is that Apple loves money. For example, the case has a lanyard loop, but getting an official lanyard will cost you $13. The original price is also quite high, at $250, although this deal alleviates some of that disappointment.
These aren’t the only Apple headphones currently on sale through Amazon. Ordinary third-generation AirPods It sells for $130, instead of $170. Also, second generation OG AirPods available for just $70this is one heck of a deal.
