Apple AirPods Pro for $169

Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C

Originally priced at $249.00, now save 32% and get them for $169.00 at Amazon. The AirPods Pro stands out as the top choice for iPhone users, thanks to its in-ear design that passively isolates sound, combined with superior active noise cancellation, a low-distortion driver and amp, and the advanced Apple H2 chip. Enjoy features like Adaptive Transparency Mode, which allows you to stay aware of your surroundings, and Conversation Mode, which enhances the voices of those you're speaking with. The second-generation AirPods Pro now features a USB Type-C port, offering more universal compatibility, and comes with a MagSafe charging case as standard.

Apple AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation

Originally $179.00, now save 17% and get them for $148.99 at Amazon. Released in September 2024, the Apple AirPods 4 comes in two versions, differing only in noise cancellation capabilities. The AirPods 4 boasts significant upgrades from the AirPods 3, including the Apple H2 chip (versus H1), Bluetooth 5.3 support (versus Bluetooth 5.0), an improved IP54 resistance rating for dust protection (versus IPX4), a USB Type-C port (versus Lightning), and a more reliable optical in-ear sensor instead of the skin detect sensor.

Should you get the AirPods Pro over AirPods 4 with ANC?

The AirPods Pro, priced $70 higher than the AirPods 4 ANC, offers superior sound quality and more effective noise cancellation due to its in-ear design. While both models feature active noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro's design ensures a tighter seal in the ear canal, reducing sound leakage and ambient noise. The AirPods 4 ANC, with its open-ear design and non-adjustable tips, may be more comfortable but less effective at noise isolation. The only reason to opt for the AirPods 4 ANC over the Pro might be a preference for less intrusive earbuds.

For a different kind of tech gift, consider the new Apple iPad. Amazon has slashed the price of the 2025 11th gen Apple iPad (A16) tablet. Available in Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Silver, each with 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, they're now just $299, a $50 discount from the original $349. This is a rare and substantial discount on a recently released iPad, unlikely to last long.
