If you're looking for a new pair of headphones, we're big fans of the Apple AirPods Pro 2. Unfortunately, they come with a pretty hefty price tag. But right now they can be yours for considerably less. These wireless earbuds would normally retail for almost $250, but if you act now, you can get them for just $180. This is only $11 more than how much they were on Prime Day. So if you missed out then, today's deal is a good second chance to save a huge chunk of change.
Even with a refreshed AirPods lineup potentially on the horizon, Apple's second-gen AirPods Pro are still among the best noise-canceling earbuds you're likely to find right now. In addition to blocking out noises, they have a transparency mode for when you need to be more aware of your surroundings, and they can automatically optimize their volume based on your environment.

In use, the earbuds promise an impressive battery life of up to 30 hours on a single charge (including the battery life stored in the charging case). They instantly pair and switch between Apple devices, making these wireless earbuds a joy to use for those in the Apple ecosystem.

If you plan on buying these to use with your Apple Vision Pro headset, you'll enjoy support for 20-bit/48kHz lossless audio with ultralow latency. The Apple Vision Pro has its own built-in speakers, so AirPods aren't an essential add-on, but they do allow for a more immersive -- and private -- viewing experience if you want to lose yourself in a movie.
If the AirPods Pro 2 don't exactly fit your spec, select something else from the best deals on earbuds and headphones we could find.
