Apple’s Newest AirPods Pro Headphones Are $50 Off During Amazon’s Spring Sale.
If you’re an Apple user looking for new headphones, the AirPods Pro 3 are the best choice. Apple’s flagship earbuds sound great, come with replaceable ear tips, and are packed with smart and useful features. However, this set doesn’t come cheap—Apple sells the latest AirPods Pro for $249. That’s why it’s a great deal to get them on sale: Amazon is currently offering the AirPods Pro 3 for $50 off the regular price.
AirPods Pro 3 are undoubtedly Apple’s best earbuds if you like their design. They offer superior sound quality, superior noise cancellation, and flexible fit thanks to interchangeable ear tips. If the one-size-fits-all approach of Apple’s standard AirPods isn’t your thing, one of these AirPods Pro sizes might be a better fit.
The AirPods Pro 3 earphones are also packed with features. They feature active noise cancellation, which Apple claims is four times better than the first-generation Pros. There’s also a “Conversation Detection” feature that reduces the music volume during a call, allowing you to chat, and then increases the volume again afterward. Apple’s “Live Translation” feature lets you translate conversations on the go directly into the AirPods, and you can even use the earphones as hearing aids. ( They’re even FDA-cleared .)
But these features are also found in some other Apple headphones. A unique feature is the built-in heart rate monitor. If you have an Apple Watch or another fitness tracker, this feature may not be particularly useful, but if not, you can rely on the headphones to monitor your heart rate during workouts for more accurate fitness measurements. The charging case is also the first in Apple’s lineup to use a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip, making it much easier to find the case (and your headphones) using the Find My feature.
Apple claims that with active noise cancellation, the earbuds provide up to eight hours of listening time on a single charge (6.5 hours with the heart rate monitor) and up to 24 hours with the charging case. They have an IP57 rating for dust, sweat, and water resistance, so while they’re not waterproof , they’re great for working out.
