Apple’s last-gen AirPods Pro 2 are down to their lowest price to date
As Black Friday approaches, savvy shoppers are already spotting fantastic deals on popular tech products, and the latest discounts on Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C charging case are particularly noteworthy. Best Buy has slashed the price to an enticing $129.99, marking a significant $120 off the original retail price of $249.99. This deal is available through November 14th and is especially appealing as it matches the price of the entry-level AirPods 4, which lack the active noise cancellation (ANC) feature that the Pro model offers. Meanwhile, Walmart is offering the same AirPods Pro 2 for $139, a $110 discount, but at a slightly higher price than Best Buy. Once Best Buy’s promotional period ends, Walmart may reclaim the title for the lowest price, making it a competitive landscape for consumers looking to snag these premium earbuds.
The AirPods Pro 2, although succeeded by the newer AirPods Pro 3, remain a top choice for audiophiles and everyday users alike, especially at this discounted price. These wireless earbuds deliver exceptional sound quality, enhanced by features like active noise cancellation and a transparency mode that allows users to hear their surroundings without removing the earbuds. This transparency mode is particularly beneficial in urban settings, where users can stay alert to important sounds, such as emergency vehicle sirens. Additionally, the AirPods Pro 2 serve a dual purpose as FDA-approved hearing aids, catering to a broader audience. With a battery life of up to six hours with ANC activated and a MagSafe-compatible charging case, these earbuds are designed for convenience and longevity. They also boast an IP54 rating, providing resistance against dust and water, making them suitable for various environments.
Furthermore, the AirPods Pro 2 feature seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem, allowing for automatic device switching. For instance, if you’re listening to music on your iPhone and then switch to your Mac, the earbuds will transition effortlessly between devices. This level of connectivity enhances user experience, making the AirPods Pro 2 a smart investment for Apple users. The inclusion of four different ear tip sizes, including an extra-small option, ensures a comfortable fit for a variety of ear shapes. As the holiday shopping season heats up, these deals on the AirPods Pro 2 present an excellent opportunity for consumers to elevate their audio experience without breaking the bank.

Although Apple has released the
excellent AirPods Pro 3
, the second-gen AirPods Pro 2 remain a solid option, especially at the discounted price. The wireless earbuds combine superb audio with excellent ANC, along with a transparency mode that sounds natural and lifelike. In addition to allowing outside sounds in, the transparency mode can also help dampen loud noises, protecting your hearing from the sudden squeal of an emergency siren.
The AirPods Pro 2 can also double as
FDA-approved hearing aids
, while offering up to six hours of battery life with ANC enabled. Speaking of battery life, the charging case comes equipped with MagSafe, making it easy to place it onto a MagSafe or Qi2 wireless charger. The earbuds also feature an IP54 rating, so they should be able to withstand a little dust and water. For comparison, the latest AirPods Pro 3 feature an upgraded IP57 rating, which means they can withstand immersion in water up to one meter deep for up to 30 minutes.
The second-gen AirPods Pro also offer deep integration with other Apple products, allowing for automatic device switching. For example, if you’re listening to music on your iPhone and log into your Mac to watch a video, the AirPods Pro will automatically switch from the iPhone to the Mac. The earbuds also include four sets of ear tips in the box — including an extra-small option — making it easier to find the most comfortable fit.
