Amazon Prime Day has ended. During the sale, we saw the standard AirPods drop to a nearly all-time low of $100, while the AirPods Pro dipped to $190. Those price points promptly went back up, but now the AirPods Pro are back down to $190 at Woot. Meanwhile, the AirPods Max have dropped to an all-time "low" of $489 at Amazon. Yes, still incredibly expensive, but $60 less than you'd pay at the Apple Store.
Note that all of these headphones are compatible with Apple's new spatial audio features, but none of them will deliver the maximum quality of Apple's upcoming lossless audio format, which is too rich for the current Bluetooth wireless standard to handle.
AirPods pricing 2021
Model | Apple Store price | Best price right now | Best all-time price |
---|---|---|---|
AirPods Pro | $249 | $190 | $169 |
AirPods | $159 | $119 | $99 |
AirPods with wireless charging case | $199 | $160 | $130 |
AirPods Max | $549 | $489 | $489 |
Apple's AirPods Pro were briefly as low as $169 at Walmart and $170 at Amazon for Black Friday. More recently, the wireless headphones have been ping-ponging between $190 and $200. But now they're back to $190 (the Prime Day 2021 low) at Woot.
Walmart came in strong to the early Black Friday sale game by marking down the AirPods to $99 -- the lowest price ever. Amazon returned to that price early on Prime Day, but has now bumped it up to $119. That's not quite the steal a hundred bucks is, but it's still a welcome discount.
The AirPods with the wireless charging case was briefly down to $130, which was very close to what you'd typically pay for the standard AirPods with a wired charging case. Now that their price is back up to $150, you're looking at a $30 to $50 bump from the AirPods with the wired case. It's debatable whether it's worth spending the extra dough, but that price still represents a $49 discount from the Apple Store price.
The latest and greatest Apple headphones were announced in December. These are full-size models, chock-full of high-end features like noise cancellation, spatial audio and easy integration with Apple devices. Yes, paying more for headphones than you would for a PS5 may sound crazy, but here's the crazier thing: They're actually kinda worth it, so long as you don't feel burned by their lack of support for full lossless audio. After months of being backordered, some colors of the AirPods Max are $60 off at Amazon right now -- a new all-time low.
