Apple AirPods Pro Second-Generation ($199.99, originally $249 at Amazon)
We called AirPods Pro the best earbuds for any iPhone user in our full review. They might look similar to the first generation, but Apple over-hauled the hardware on the inside that improves nearly all the features.
Noise cancellation is even stronger thanks to the new H2 processor that listens to external sounds and works to cancel them in real-time. With music playing back as well, you can effectively block out the world around you.
For those moments when you need to hear the world around, the upgraded Adaptive Transparency mode lets those keys environmentally sound in. Additionally, they’ll identify loud noises (85-decibles or higher)—think a construction site while walking down the street— and lower the audio to protect your ears.
Both of these features performed incredibly well in our testing and neither of them tank the battery life either. With noise cancelation or transparency turned on, you can expect seven hours of playback on a full charge. Recharges from the case stretches that to over 30 hours.
You can also charge the AirPods Pro case via wired Lightning cable, a standard Qi-enabled wireless charger, a MagSafe charger or an Apple Watch charger. Essentially, you’ll likely have one of those around to recharge the case.
It’s also smarter with Find My functionality built-in. This allows you to ping the case and hear a chime when your AirPods Pro go missing. Apple also tossed in a spot to easily attach a lanyard.
Lastly, AirPods Pro still delivers some of the best audio quality on the market. Adaptive EQ works in real-time to tune whatever you’re playing to your ears and the result is a vibrant mix. AirPods Pro second generation offer a wider soundstage and more robust bass over the first generation as well.
At 20% off, some of the best wireless earbuds on the market are an even better deal. $199.99 for AirPods Pro second-generation is a perfect match for anyone for an iPhone. Furthermore, you’re scoring them for close to the lowest price ever.
