The AirPods Pro 2 are the earbuds that finally brought Apple into five-star territory after a swathe of four-star reviews from us. We think they're the best in-ear AirPods you can get right now—apart from the over-ear and far more expensive AirPods Max, which are also five-star winners.
And you can snap them up for only $149 at Amazon. That's a whopping $100 discount, and even though Amazon Prime Day is still live, this deal is actually available to anyone, whether a member of Prime or not.
We've never seen these impressive buds drop so low, which makes it the right time to make yourself an owner of a pair of the best wireless earbuds, especially for dedicated iOS users.
The AirPods Pro 2 excel in pretty much every key area of wireless performance. We're talking about a competitive total battery life of around 30 hours and intuitive use with iOS devices, as well as solid voice call quality and wireless charging capabilities.
Then there's the AirPods Pro 2's very capable noise-canceling, which, while not quite on the same level as Bose's best, dampens external noises in a way that feels natural and adapts smoothly according to your surroundings.
You also get full spatial audio, a user-friendly conversation mode, neat touch controls, and plenty of additional iOS-only features—including health-related features such as a handy hearing test.
Sonically, the AirPods Pro 2 are hugely entertaining, even if newer rivals such as the Sony WF-1000XM5 offer even greater insight and rhythmic ability. There's clarity and detail to be found on the Apple buds, but what impressed us during our tests was how rich and powerful the Pro 2 were capable of sounding.
They're also rhythmically adept, adding a feeling of drive and propulsion to tunes and giving your music the energy and momentum it needs in order to feel truly exciting.
As we stated in our review, "We knew Apple was serious about sound when we heard the AirPods Max headphones, and it’s fantastic to see it bring that level of quality performance to the more affordable AirPods Pro range."
There is no shortage of steep competition at this price point from Sony, Bose, and B&W, but the AirPods Pro 2 remain a friendly, feature-packed, and great-sounding pair of wireless earbuds, especially if you are ensconced in Apple's ecosystem.
And they're even better value thanks to this superb deal price of $149 at Amazon—snap them up before this deal disappears!
