Forget AirPods 4: Apple AirPods Pro 2 Just Dropped To Best-Ever Price

AirPods Pro 2 are the premium in-ear headphones from Apple. As part of the fall Amazon Prime Day, they have just dropped in price so much they’re currently available to Prime members for less than the latest regular AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation.

This is the best price Amazon has ever offered AirPods Pro 2, undercutting previous prices by around $20 and more than £80 off the regular $249 price.

The current offer sees the earbuds on offer for just $168.99, which represents a 32% price cut over the regular sticker price. So, what’s the catch?

Well, you do have to be an Amazon Prime member to snag this deal, which means there’s no catch at all if you’re already a Prime member.

However, if you aren’t then you need to sign up and that costs $14.99 a month, or $139 a year. You may feel this rather dents the benefit of this low price, and you’d be right, except that joining comes with a 30-day free trial, and you can cancel at any time.

Smart buyers join for free and cancel before the 30 days are up—you could even cancel as soon as you’ve completed your purchase, and still get the benefits of Prime for the remainder of the 30 days. And, not to big up the service, you also get free delivery on more than 300 million items, some of them available to customers in the right locations on same-day delivery. Of course, Amazon is hoping you don’t cancel, but you can.

As for the AirPods Pro 2, they’re at a heck of a price. After all, the new AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation are priced at $179, about $10 more than this price. Because they’re new, you won’t find discounts on the new AirPods 4 just yet, and that’s the case with the model with ANC on Amazon right now. The entry-level AirPods 4 are discounted, from $129 to $119, an 8% price cut.

But, here’s the thing, while the noise cancelling on AirPods 4 with ANC is great, it’s much better on the AirPods Pro 2, which have other benefits over AirPods 4 as well. If you were even thinking of spending $179 on AirPods 4, go for AirPods Pro 2 while you can pick them up at this price.
