If 2025 is the year that you finally upgrade those old and busted wireless earbuds, this deal is the deal for you. Premium earbuds don’t come much better than Apple’s impressive AirPods Pro 2, but they also don’t come much more expensive, either. Thankfully, there have already been a couple of discounts this month and right now these ANC-equipped wonders can be had for just $180 at Amazon. This deal was originally price-matching a one-day Best Buy sale, but now that deal has come to an end we expect Amazon to follow suit sooner rather than later — be sure to keep that in mind when pondering your order.

The AirPods Pro 2 comes with a MagSafe Charging Case (USB-C), four silicone ear tips ranging from extra-small to large as well as a USB-C cable. Powered by Apple’s H2 chip, the earbuds deliver immersive sound and active noise cancellation that removes up to two times background noise. With this enabled, the battery can last up to 6 hours by itself or 30 hours with the charging case.

Why this deal matters

CNET audio expert David Carnoy gave a hugely positive review of the Apple AirPods Pro 2 complimenting the “excellent sound” and “well-designed controls.” Summarizing his thoughts, Carnoy said: “The AirPods Pro 2 may not be the best at everything, but they do everything very well and are also lightweight and fit most people’s ears comfortably and securely. And that’s why they remain one of our CNET Editors’ Choice award winners in the headphones category.”

The AirPods Pro 2 are worth full price to a lot of folks, though snagging them with close to $70 off is a huge win if you’re in for a set.
