Save $50 on AirPods Pro, Galaxy Buds+ with delivery in time for Christmas

Headphones always make a great gift idea for all the family or simply as a treat for yourself. This holiday season, you can save $50 on the Apple AirPods Pro or Samsung Galaxy Buds+ at Amazon, giving you big savings and plenty of choice for how you want to listen. Even better, both are ready to be delivered in time for Christmas. If you’re looking for other headphone deals, we’ve got you covered there, too.

Ordinarily priced at $150, the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ are down to just $100 and that’s a pretty great deal. We were big fans of them in our Samsung Galaxy Buds+ review, appreciating their fantastic 11-hour battery life along with their comfortable and lightweight design. The only frustrating thing is that the charging case only carries one recharge but that’s less of an issue in earbuds with an 11-hour battery life all on their own. After all, that still means 22 hours of listening, which should be more than enough to ensure you don’t need to charge too often. Impressively, just three minutes of charging returns an hour of playtime, which is super useful if you’re not very organized. The Samsung Galaxy Buds+ also offer some isolation from distracting noises, which is pretty useful, and a welcome feature at this price.

Our Apple AirPods Pro review called them Apple’s best buds yet and we stand by that. If you’re a big Apple fan, you’re going to love their simple form even more so. They have the Apple aesthetic perfectly and this minimalist look is backed up with some great features. That includes Adaptive EQ which automatically tunes music to the shape of your ear meaning you get superior sound quality each step of the way. Alongside that is Active Noise Cancellation so you get to enjoy your music, no matter how busy your surroundings. There’s a Transparency mode, too, for when you need to switch back to listening to the world around you. The only real downside here is that battery life is only about 4-5 hours but the charging case bumps that up to 24 hours before you need a power source.

AirPods Pro 2 haven’t gone back to full price since Prime Day

The Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe are originally priced at $249, but they've been available with a discount from Amazon since Prime Day in July. They're on sale right now at $190, which isn't as cheap as from the AirPods deals of the shopping event when they were going for $169, but the $59 discount is still a pretty nice score for these premium wireless earbuds. However, the longer this trend goes on, the higher the chance that the streak ends and they go back to their regular price. If you want to take advantage of the savings, we highly recommend pushing through with your purchase as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe
The lowered price of the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe likely remains because of the launch of the Apple AirPods 4 with ANC, which brought active noise cancellation to the entry-level AirPods. The feature was previously only available in the AirPods Pro line. However, because the Apple AirPods Pro 2 come with silicone eartips, they do a superior job at preventing you from hearing unwanted noise. Both models of wireless earbuds offer USB-C charging, but the Apple AirPods Pro 2 feature a force sensor that translates swipes into volume adjustments, and overall better sound quality for listening to music and taking calls.
