Black Friday and Cyber Monday have come and gone, but if you’re like me, you may have been too busy to shop for everything you needed. Thankfully, multiple Apple AirPods models are on sale at Best Buy right now, with the new Apple AirPods Pro 3 matching their lowest price ever. If you’ve been meaning to get a new pair of wireless earbuds or over-ear headphones, this might be the best deal you’ll find before the year ends.
Best Buy Apple AirPods sale
AirPods Pro 3 launched in September, and went on sale for the first time during Black Friday — this deal matches that price. They have serious upgrades over Apple AirPods Pro 2, including much stronger noise cancellation, longer battery life and better water and dust resistance. They also come with more eartip sizes in the box (extra small through extra large).
These over-ear headphones have excellent sound quality, noise cancellation and transparency modes, far stronger than earbud AirPods. NBC Select editorial projects manager Rebecca Rodriguez has used them for years for work, relaxation and travel. They come in five colors, all of which are on sale right now.
AirPods 4 have a semi-open ear design that lets you hear your surroundings more than with AirPods Pro. And this latest version has a few improvements over past models, like improved IP54 dust and water resistance rating, and a new voice isolation feature on calls. The earbuds get up to five hours of listening time and up to 30 hours with the charging case.
