The latest AirPods Pro are a big step up. The third iteration of Apple's iconic earbuds come with a number of quality-of-life and software improvements that make them worth the typical premium over the AirPods Pro 2—and right now, the AirPods Pro 3 are even cheaper than the previous generation. They're $199.99 on Amazon as an early Prime Day deal, down from $249.99 and matching their second-lowest price ever, according to price tracking tools.

The AirPods Pro 3 improve on already great earbuds with new features like a heart rate sensor, better automatic noise canceling (ANC), longer battery life for the buds (though the case's battery life is a bit worse), and an improved "Find My" experience. You'll get Personalized Spatial Audio (so you can hear sounds seemingly coming from different directions as you move your head) and the ability to use head gestures to tell Siri "yes" or "no" (this also works for answering or denying calls). Apple also added a live translation feature to both the second- and third-generation AirPods Pro when iOS 26 rolled out earlier this year.

Since these earbuds have rubber tips, they sealed your ear canal (as supposed to regular earbuds like the AirPods 4); consequently, the ANC is much better—but the ANC technology itself has also improved, as has the overall audio quality, thanks to the new H3 chip In its "exemplary" review, PCMag called them the best earbuds for your money—and now, you can spend 20% less of it.
