Say what? Apple AirPods are a record-low $69 with this rare Prime Day deal

AirPods Pro are on sale too!

It's a personal-audio truism: Those who try AirPods love them at first listen, and they never look back. These durable wireless earbuds have an army of fans because they are comfortable, have a long battery life and produce fantastic sound ��� and there has never been a better time to snap them up. Right now you can get a stellar 2nd-gen pair from Amazon at their lowest price ever — just 69% — ahead of Prime Day! Snap these up, then check out our Prime Day deals roundup for even more great gets.

Just double-tap these AirPods to skip a song, answer a call or activate Siri.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

Great sales on Apple products are rare. At nearly 50% off, this is a don't-miss deal. This is the lowest price we have ever seen for this pair of AirPods — on any pair of AirPods, actually.

Are AirPods worth buying? 🤔

There's a reason AirPods always sell out: They're awesome. Sure, everyone might rave about AirPods Pro, but those cost a pretty penny. These second-generation AirPods provide comparable sound quality, are easy to use and just plain look great. What's more, their charging case slips easily into a pocket or purse (you might even forget it's in there).

You can expect roughly five hours of battery life on a single charge, but the case can recharge your AirPods five times before it runs out of juice. That's over a full day of listening to your favorite tunes or podcasts, streaming content or "reading" that hot new audiobook. Thanks to the Apple H1 chip, these pair easily with your iOS devices — just open the case and you'll be prompted to connect them.

They're durable too. Remember how I said you might forget they're in your pocket? Well, I speak from experience — these AirPods survived a trip through the washing machine in my pants pocket without skipping a beat (so to speak).

What reviewers say 💬

Over 543,000 shoppers (yes, really) have given them a perfect five-star rating. They gush about their longevity, sound and all-around awesomeness.

Pros 👍

"We purchased these for our teenage son," said one parent. "They pair with his Apple iPhone. The wireless rechargeable case is so convenient. He has used them for over a year and a half and they still work really well and he uses them every day!"

Said another fan: "I love the overall look and feel of this product. The sound quality and audio quality both perform very well. The battery life is just awesome. I can use these any time of day and travel with them."

This shopper agrees about the stellar battery life. "I love these things. They last so long, so I don’t have to charge them that often and they don’t fall out of my ears."

Cons 👎

"High quality, only one problem," noted a reviewer who gave the pair four stars. "Very good noise quality, but the only bad thing is that if you play it too loud, the noise bleeds out..."

This shopper wasn't thrilled with the price but still gave high praise. "One minor downside is that the AirPods are relatively expensive compared to other wireless earbuds on the market. However, the quality, performance and user experience justify the investment for me." (Too bad this low $69 price tag wasn't around then!)

A whopping 60 bucks off a pair of these stellar buds? Music to our ears!

With active noise canceling, personalized audio, and loads of other features that make these well worth the cost, this is one of the craziest Prime Day deals we've seen yet.

If the third generation of AirPods is more your style, they're also marked down to the lowest price on record. Unlike the 2nd gens, they feature spatial audio with dynamic head tracking and a longer battery life. There has never been a better time to invest in a set of earbuds for yourself.
