AirPods Pro 3 drop to $220 — biggest discount since launch
Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 are on sale for $220 — the deepest discount we’ve seen so far (previous low was about $239). The earbuds bring improved sound, stronger active noise cancellation, Live Translation via the H2 chip, and longer battery life in a familiar, comfortable design.
Key upgrades include refined drivers and increased internal airflow for deeper bass and a wider soundstage, enhanced ANC, and up to ~8 hours of listening with ANC on (about 32 hours total including the MagSafe case). The case now includes an updated U2 chip for better Precision Find My range.
Notable features
- Live Translation: Real-time translation through Siri (with transcription support in the Translate app) — useful for travel and calls.
- Improved audio: Deeper bass, crisper highs and a more immersive soundstage.
- Battery & charging: ~8 hours per charge with ANC, plus 24–32 hours with the case; MagSafe charging supported.
- Connectivity: Seamless pairing and features for iPhone users thanks to the H2 chip and tight iOS integration.
Should you buy at $220?
At $220 this is a strong holiday buy for iPhone users who want best-in-class ANC, improved sound, and convenient features like Live Translation and enhanced Find My. If you already own AirPods Pro (2nd gen), consider whether the incremental audio and ANC gains justify an upgrade — otherwise this price is compelling for new buyers.
Buying tips
- Confirm seller, return policy and warranty before purchasing; Black Friday stock can fluctuate.
- Check whether the deal applies to all case / ear tip configurations and whether any bundles are available.
- Compare alternatives if you use Android — some rivals offer similar ANC and audio at lower prices.
