Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 crash to an all-time low price of $179

Usually on sale for $199, Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 have dropped all the way down to $179 at Walmart, a whopping $70 cut on an absolutely amazing pair of earbuds. This is the lowest price we’ve ever seen on these buds, which makes the Pro 3 even easier to recommend.

The noise cancellation feature is what you’ll love most about these earbuds. These earbuds block out far more than earlier models, and that difference shows up exactly where you want it, such as on noisy commutes, crowded flights, or an open office where you’re trying to focus. It’s not just the noise-cancelling part that shines with this new model, but also the transparency mode, which is also something we note in our 4.5-star review.

We gave the AirPods Pro 3 our Editors’ Choice award for good reason, praising the sound, the silence, and the improved battery life. Battery life holds its own, with up to 8 hours on noise cancellation or 10 in Transparency mode, which is more than enough for long days and travel. One of the coolest features about these earbuds is the new sensors that help with health metrics. Built-in heart rate tracking across 50 workout types is definitely a nice bonus, especially if you don’t love wearing a smartwatch while exercising.

If you’re not that fond of the way silicone-tipped earbuds feel in your ear, then the AirPods Pro will not be for you. The regular AirPods 4 with ANC (on sale for $149) will do just fine. And while the noise-cancelling won’t be as good and you won’t get as many features, the comfort might be worth it.

At $179, however, these AirPods Pro are an easy pick for iPhone owners who want top-tier noise cancellation and hearing health features in one set.
