Apple’s AirPods Pro dropped to their lowest price of the year so far

Apple’s latest AirPods Pro with USB-C are now just US$169—this year’s best price and only US$16 more than their Black Friday price.

Apple’s latest AirPods Pro with USB-C charging is now available at their best price of the year, giving you the perfect chance to upgrade your listening experience. You can get them for just US$169, which is US$80 off the usual price, at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. This is only US$16 more than the lowest price ever seen during Black Friday last year.

While Amazon’s Gaming Week might be grabbing headlines, this standout deal on Apple’s AirPods Pro shows that not all the best discounts are about gaming gear. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to invest in a new pair of wireless earbuds, this might be it.

More precise sound and better features than ever before

These second-generation AirPods Pro offer several improvements over the original version. You’ll notice much better sound quality and noise cancellation, which helps block out background noise so you can enjoy your music or podcasts more clearly. Another helpful upgrade is the on-ear volume control, so you can easily turn the volume up or down without reaching for your phone.

One of the biggest changes is the addition of a USB-C charging case instead of the older Lightning connector. This small change makes it easier to charge your AirPods Pro using the same cable as your newer Apple devices. You also get support for wireless charging, so you can drop them onto a compatible pad and go.

These earbuds are especially ideal for iPhone users. Apple’s AirPods Pro work seamlessly with the iPhone, offering quick pairing, automatic device switching, and even personalised spatial audio. This special audio feature uses your ear shape to create a more immersive sound. You also get great voice call quality, whether on a quick call or chatting for a while.

Designed for comfort, water resistance, and even hearing support

Comfort is important, and the AirPods Pro also delivers on that front. The in-ear design has different tip sizes, helping you get a secure fit. They’re also IPX4-rated, meaning they can handle sweat and small water splashes. That makes them a good option for workouts, light rain, or just daily use on the go.

The charging case also includes smart features like a built-in speaker and Apple’s U1 chip. This makes it easier to locate your case if it’s lost nearby. If it’s further away, you can still track it using the Find My network, which taps into other Apple devices to help locate your missing AirPods.

Another helpful feature came recently with the iOS 18 update. The AirPods Pro now supports hearing aid features that the FDA has approved. They can help you listen to conversations more clearly in noisy environments, offering more value beyond entertainment.

A great deal that won’t last forever

If you’re an Apple fan or someone who’s been looking for top-tier wireless earbuds, this is one of the best times to buy. With savings of US$80 and availability from trusted retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy, you’ll want to act quickly. Deals like this don’t tend to stay around for long, especially on popular products like the AirPods Pro.

Whether listening to music, taking calls, or using them as hearing aids, the AirPods Pro are a smart and stylish choice—these new features and the current discount offer even better value than before.
