Although the holiday shopping frenzy is behind us, it's nice to see that good deals are still available–especially on popular tech that we've been reviewing and testing for years. Case in point: Amazon is running an Apple AirPods Pro 2 sale, offering 28% off, which brings the price to less than $200.
AirPods Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds
We've tested and reviewed virtually countless earbuds, especially Apple's, and consider ourselves connoisseurs. In his extensive review of the 'Pods when they launched two years ago, senior technology editor Stefan Vazharov called the sound quality "nothing short of excellent" and the noise-cancelation "outstanding and a legit best-in-class contender."
He also noted how easy the AirPods Pro 2 are to use, thanks to their simple touch controls and the ability to "Hey Siri" your commands. For deeper customization, you can adjust the controls in your phone's Bluetooth settings, which means you can keep everything in the Apple ecosystem and don't need an extra app.
The Pro 2 are the AirPods I wear every day, too, and I can confirm that the sound and noise-control settings are far better than other earbuds I own. I love that when I'm listening to a song, if I start talking, the music automatically lowers itself until I stop speaking. Another feature I'm keen on: The hearing aid tech (which, honestly, is why I chose them in the first place). The AirPods become hearing aids , amplifying environmental sound when no music is playing. After a quick diagnostic hearing test, my earbuds set themselves to a level that allows me to finally lower the volume on my TV and hear everyone clearly in online meetings.
These under-$200 AirPods Pro 2 have a USB-C charger, they're mag-safe, and you'll get about six hours of battery life from the earbuds and 30 from the case. Best of all, the case has Apple's U1 chip, so you can track it like an AirTag.
For all of these reasons, Apple AirPods Pro 2 are one of our top audio picks time and again. Of all the wireless earbud tests we've conducted over the years, so far, the Pro 2 are the best AirPods out there. And when it comes to earbuds specifically for iPhones, we dubbed the AirPods Pro 2 the best overall. Grab a pair now while they're marked down. You won't regret the upgrade.
