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.

The Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe, like all AirPods models, are extremely easy to pair with iOS devices. These wireless earbuds also offer IP54 resistance against water and dust for extra durability, support for spatial audio with dynamic head tracking for an immersive experience with compatible content, and up to six hours of usage with ANC activated and up to a total of 30 hours with their charging case.

Apple deals usually don’t last long, which is why we’re surprised that the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe have been on sale from Amazon for more than two months. We’re not complaining, and you shouldn’t as well because you can buy these wireless earbuds for only $190 right now, for savings of $59 on their sticker price of $249. We’re not sure when, but the discount will end one day, and if you don’t want to regret not buying the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe while they’re cheaper than usual, you should complete your transaction for them immediately.

This AirPods Max Labor Day deal is the cheapest they’ve been since Prime Day

The Apple AirPods Max are down to only $399 from Amazon as part of the retailer's Labor Day deals, which is the cheapest that they've been since Prime Day in July when they were down to $394. You wouldn't want to miss this $150 discount on their original price of $549, so we highly recommend completing your purchase as soon as you can. It's not a good idea to wait until the last minute of the holiday, as stocks of the popular wireless headphones that are up for sale may be gone by then.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods Max
It's no secret that the Apple AirPods Max are expensive (though Amazon's discount for Labor Day helps bring it within reach for more people), but they're worth it as "the most fun headphones ever" with excellent quality in terms of their build and sound. Their active noise cancellation is amazing in blocking external sound, while transparency mode will let you hear what's going on around you without having to take them off. They support personalized spatial audio for an immersive listening experience, and they can last up to 20 hours on a single charge with this feature and ANC and both enabled.

Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe review

When it comes to wireless earbuds and headphones, Apple has always been a brand that folks flock to. We’re sure you or someone you know has owned a pair of AirPods at some point. About as synonymous with Apple audio as one product line can get, AirPods have continued to evolve over the years; introducing features like active noise canceling and USB-C recharging along the way. Perhaps the best representation of Apple’s in-ear ingenuity comes in the form of the AirPods Pro 2nd Gen.

Also referred to as the AirPods Pro 2, the second-gen AirPods Pro deliver some of the best noise canceling and sound quality we’ve heard from a pair of buds in 2024. And now the MagSafe charging case includes a USB-C port instead of Lightning, meaning faster recharge times!
