Offers for Apple’s AirPods Pro just got a little better. Amazon is selling Apple’s real next-generation wireless headsets for $ 190, after an immediate price drop and $ 10 cash savings. It’s a steep drop from the official $ 249 and makes it relatively easy to sell if you’re inclined towards the Apple ecosystem. We saw the Pro for sale for $ 200 several times, but only occasionally cheaper.
Buy AirPods Pro on Amazon – $ 190
You may already know the story: AirPods Pro are some of the most efficient wireless headsets on the market. They may not have absolute sound quality on their side (although they sound better than some), but they do have exceptional active noise cancellation, a comfortable fit and water resistance for exercise. Add recent additions like space audio and AirPods Pro can be attractive, whether you’re using them for video calls or movie marathons on the couch.
The warnings have not changed either. You can find better sound quality on offerings like Sony’s WF-1000XM3. The on-bud controls are complicated and you will have to dig deeper into iOS to change the settings. There is also the not-so-small issue of platform support. You can use AirPods Pro with Android and Windows devices, but you will lose spatial audio, ease of pairing and other benefits that come with using headphones with Apple products. If that is not an obstacle, you will probably be happy.
