Apple AirPods Pro 3 get their first-ever discount at Amazon

SAVE $10: As of Sept. 22, Amazon dropped the list price of Apple's brand-new AirPods Pro 3 to $239 instead of $249. That's the first-ever discount for the earbuds, which hit shelves just a few days ago.

Apple's AirPods Pro 3 have only officially been on shelves for three days, but thanks to Amazon, you can already find them at a discount.

As of Sept. 22, the AirPods Pro 3 are on sale for $239 at Amazon. Although it's not listed as a deal on the product page, that's $10 off their actual list price and cheaper than you'll find them at any other retailer. Sure, it's not the biggest discount in the world, but it's their first discount ever. And $10 is $10 — especially in this economy.

One of the biggest announcements from Apple's annual September event, the AirPods Pro 3 are a much-needed upgrade. The last time the Pros got an update was in 2023 and it wasn't much to write home about, with Apple only adding a USB-C port to the 2022 rendition. This time around, Apple delivered the goods. The Pro 3s feature better noise cancellation that's supposedly twice as effective as the second-generation earbuds, as well as better battery life (eight hours with ANC, 10 hours in transparency mode). They also added the heart rate monitoring tech from the Powerbeats Pro 2, Fitness app compatibility, and new foam-infused eartips that fit more snugly in your ears, making the new AirPods Pro a solid contender to overtake our favorite workout earbuds. Apple also finally jumped on board the live translation train (Samsung Galaxy Buds and Google Pixel Buds already have this feature).

In a world where everything is getting more expensive, the most surprising aspect of the AirPods Pro 3 is the price tag. The new earbuds retail for the same price as the previous earbuds: just $249. And for some reason, Amazon already has them on sale for $10 off.
