Check Out the Top AirPods Deals Available Now

If you know where to look, you can often snag some great deals on Apple’s expanding AirPods lineup. The AirPods Max and AirPods 4 (both with and without Active Noise Cancellation) are frequently discounted, along with the latest AirPods Pro 3. While major shopping events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday offered some of the best prices we’ve seen, there are still solid deals available on all models this January.

Here’s a roundup of the best current deals on each AirPods model, including both versions of the AirPods 4, the third-gen AirPods Pro, and the AirPods Max.

The best AirPods 4 deals

At the end of 2024, Apple launched the AirPods 4, which come in two versions: a standard model priced at $129 and a noise-canceling variant at $179. Both models are significant upgrades from the third-gen AirPods, featuring a more comfortable design and enhanced audio quality. They also excel in call quality, thanks to Apple’s Voice Isolation feature that focuses the microphones on your voice, making it easier to be heard in noisy settings.

The $179 AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation provide an impressively effective noise-canceling experience, along with a useful transparency mode and several features typically found in Pro models. While the latest AirPods Pro offer superior noise cancellation, the AirPods 4 with ANC still do a commendable job of minimizing background noise. They also include perks like wireless charging and a case with a built-in speaker, making it easy to locate via Apple’s Find My app.

Since they’ve been on the market for over a year, discounts on both versions of the AirPods 4 are common. During Black Friday, the standard model dropped to a record low of $74. Currently, they’re priced at $99 ($30 off) at various retailers. The AirPods 4 with ANC are available for $139.99, which is above their lowest price of $99.

The best AirPods Pro 3 deals

Apple unveiled the AirPods Pro 3 at its “Awe Dropping” event in September. These earbuds feature improved Active Noise Cancellation and sound quality, along with a built-in heart rate sensor that syncs with the iPhone Fitness app, allowing you to monitor your pulse and calories burned across more than 50 workout types. They also offer a more comfortable and secure fit, thanks to a redesigned shape and five ear tip sizes, including a new XXS option. Additionally, they boast a robust IP57 rating and support for Apple’s new live translation feature, which generally conveys the gist well, though it can’t quite match a human interpreter.

Despite their recent launch, the AirPods Pro 3 have seen frequent discounts. They recently dropped to as low as $199, which was even lower than their Black Friday and Cyber Monday prices. As of now, they’re available for $229.99 (about $19 off) at select retailers.

The best AirPods Max deals

The AirPods Max are a departure from the iconic in-ear design associated with the AirPods brand. These over-ear headphones are crafted from aluminum, steel, and mesh fabric, ensuring comfort during long listening sessions. They deliver excellent noise cancellation, Apple’s spatial audio feature, and a balanced sound profile, although they may not match some competitors in bass response and features. While they might not be the best noise-canceling headphones for everyone—largely due to their price—they remain a top choice for iPhone users seeking high-quality Bluetooth headphones.

Toward the end of 2024, Apple introduced a new model of the AirPods Max with USB-C charging support and additional color options. Previously, we’ve seen them drop to as low as $399, but they are currently on sale for $449.99 ($100 off) at select retailers, which is still one of the better prices available.
