Best AirPods deal: $169.99 AirPods Pro 2

SAVE $79: As of Oct. 17, the Apple AirPods Pro 2 are back down to $169.99 at Amazon. That's a savings of 32% and matches their price from October Prime Day.

If you missed out on grabbing the Apple AirPods Pro 2 at their Prime Day price, it's your lucky day. As of Oct. 17, the second-generation earbuds are back on sale for $169.99 at Amazon. That's 32% off their list price and the same price we saw a couple of weeks ago for October's Prime Big Deal Days event.

Sure, there's a new pair of premium Apple earbuds in town — the AirPods Pro 3 — but we still think the AirPods Pro 2 are worth grabbing. They've been our favorite earbuds for Apple users and topped our lists of the best headphones for a few years now, thanks to rich and balanced sound, superb noise cancellation, and seamless integration in the Apple ecosystem. "For portability, active noise cancellation, and balanced sound, your search ends with the AirPods Pro," our reviewer writes. The newest generation improves the ANC even more and boosts battery life, but since they're so new, you'll have to pay full price.

We don't expect the Pro 2s to stay in stock for that much longer now that there's a new pair on the block, so if you're looking for solid noise-cancellers that won't break the bank, pick up the Pro 2s on sale for just $169.99 while you can.
