Regardless of whether you're an Apple fan or iPhone user, the AirPods Pro 3 are among the best wireless earbuds you can buy.
Not only are they great to listen to, but they're also great to use and a great addition to anyone already immersed in Apple's product ecosystem.
Until now, that is. The current generation AirPods Pro 3 are available for their lowest-ever price of £189 at Amazon, beating their previous low of £197.
That's a 14 per cent saving compared to the £219 we originally tested them at back in January. If you're still sitting on a pair of the original AirPods Pro, we think now could be the perfect time to upgrade.
The AirPods Pro 3 tick a lot of boxes. Their noise-cancelling is amongst the most effective on the market – they manage to block out a good chunk of external mid and low-range frequencies, aided by their ultra-low-noise microphones and foam-infused eartips.
The tips come in five different sizes, which comes in handy when trying to get a good fit. Environmental noises are kept quiet, and the buds do a good job of taking the edge off sudden loud spikes, too.
The Pro 3 feature a revamped ‘multiport acoustic architecture’ compared to the Pro 2, which promises more precise airflow control to deliver greater bass and a wider soundstage.
And they backed these claims up during testing. In our AirPods Pro 3 review, we said, “It only takes a few minutes of comparisons to discover that the AirPods Pro 3 take a sonic step forward in every way, too. The Pro 3 sound clearer and more detailed; they are more spacious-sounding and more dynamic, too.”
“Tonally, the AirPods Pro 3 have a well-judged balance that ensures no frequency sticks out unduly, nor does it sound too smoothed-over at the expense of subtlety.”
Battery life is eight hours from a single charge with ANC on, which is competitive enough in this class. Add the wireless charging case to the equation, and you get a total battery life of 24 hours.
Long-term AirPods features such as conversation mode and head-gesture controls remain as slick as ever; they are joined by some new offerings, such as a heart-rate sensor and an improved IP57 water resistance.
If you own an iPhone or other iOS device, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 make a lot of sense and come highly recommended by our review team, especially at their new record-low price of £189 at Amazon.
