Just because Prime Day is over doesn’t mean the deals have to stop. In a flash sale, Amazon has slashed the price of the Anker Soundcore Liberty Air 2 true wireless earbuds from $90 to $70. The wireless headphones are longtime rivals of Apple’s popular AirPods — but right now they’re available at a much cheaper price. In other words, you could save a whole $20 on what are considered some of the best true wireless earbuds on the market right now. With pristine sound quality and top-of-the-line features, these headphones are undoubtedly worth far more than this discounted price, so be sure to hop on the deal now before the flash sale expires.

The Liberty Air 2 earbuds offer excellent and versatile sound quality for businesspeople on the move. Or, these days, businesspeople in their home offices. Each earbud comes equipped with two microphones and cVc 8.0 noise reduction technology, which reduce environmental noise by 60% while still allowing for 95% of your voice to be retained on calls. Plus, music is reproduced with a 15% larger frequency bandwidth for clear treble and 2x more bass, which can help make any workout better. They even allow you to customize your own EQ settings to tailor the earbuds to your ears and optimize the listening experience. Basically, these headphones have fantastic sound quality for every and any need: work meetings in your home office, while out running errands, and even exercising at the gym.

What’s more: the Liberty Air 2 earbuds can keep up with your busiest days. The wireless charging case includes up to 28 hours of playtime, with a single charge of the earbuds resulting in a full 7 hours of listening. Their sleek and compact charging case is also perfectly portable and reassuringly durable, easily slipped into any pockets or bags without having to think twice. The earbuds’ one-step pairing and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity make listening on-the-go even simpler, offering a fast, strong, and reliable connection no matter where you are.

Any pair of $90 wireless earbuds priced at $70 offers a worthwhile deal — but this Anker Soundcore Liberty Air 2 discount is especially noteworthy. Their portability, fantastic and versatile listening experience, simple setup, and reliable Bluetooth connectivity put them on par with — if not superior to — Apple’s coveted AirPods. This is one deal you’ll definitely want to take advantage of before it’s too late.
