Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 earbuds are available for $180 via Amazon. This is the first real discount of the year, and you’ll save 28%. It’s not the lowest it’s ever been, but it’s close.
AirPods Pro 2 earphones have been making a name for themselves since their release in 2022. They easily made our list of the best wireless earbuds, and for good reason. These are notable improvements over previous iterations in almost every way. The sound quality is great and the earbuds have active noise cancellation.

In our official review, we particularly praised the transparency mode. They sound very natural, especially when compared to competing earphones. You can leave your AirPods on during the actual conversation, and you probably won’t even notice you’re wearing them. Other features include super-fast pairing with Apple devices, hands-free Siri, spatial audio, and more.
A recent software update also reduced wireless audio latency. This is perfect for mobile gaming. Another benefit for gamers? Improved voice quality thanks to 16-bit, 48kHz audio during live chat.
The main issue with these earphones is the price, but today’s sale alleviates that a bit. One small complaint is that it takes a little practice to get the touch gestures right, but it’s not rocket science.
