AirPods Pro 2 haven’t gone back to full price since Prime Day

The Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe are originally priced at $249, but they've been available with a discount from Amazon since Prime Day in July. They're on sale right now at $190, which isn't as cheap as from the AirPods deals of the shopping event when they were going for $169, but the $59 discount is still a pretty nice score for these premium wireless earbuds. However, the longer this trend goes on, the higher the chance that the streak ends and they go back to their regular price. If you want to take advantage of the savings, we highly recommend pushing through with your purchase as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe
The lowered price of the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe likely remains because of the launch of the Apple AirPods 4 with ANC, which brought active noise cancellation to the entry-level AirPods. The feature was previously only available in the AirPods Pro line. However, because the Apple AirPods Pro 2 come with silicone eartips, they do a superior job at preventing you from hearing unwanted noise. Both models of wireless earbuds offer USB-C charging, but the Apple AirPods Pro 2 feature a force sensor that translates swipes into volume adjustments, and overall better sound quality for listening to music and taking calls.
