Best Prime Day AirPods deals
Odds are, if you’re in the Apple ecosystem, you’re at least curious if AirPods are worth checking out.
Prime Day is a great time to satisfy that curiosity. This year, the mega-sale will last four days, from July 8 to July 11, which means it’s live right now. But after years of covering the sale, the Mashable shopping team knows that the run-up can often bring deals worth shopping ahead of time.
One particular deal we’re calling to your attention are the AirPods Max over-the-ear headphones that are currently on sale for $429.99. They had previously dropped to $399 on day one of the sale at both Amazon and Walmart, but they’ve since risen in price. Still, this is a pretty good deal to scoop up while they’re over $100 off.
The 20+ best Apple deals live ahead of Prime Day
Though deals were off to a slow start, the day before Prime Day ramped up the price drops on AirPods. And now the event is live, things have got wild. We highly recommend the deals on the AirPods Max, AirPods Pro, and AirPods 4. Check out the details below — and check out more headphones deals live on Prime Day.
Best AirPods deal
Why we like it
Check out Mashable’s full review of the AirPods Pro (USB-C).
AirPods Pro dropped another $10 in price, putting them down to $149. With this deal, the Pros are down to their record-low price. Buying early gives you the advantage of beating a potential sell-out of the AirPods (which we have seen happen in sales past). With excellent sound quality and active noise cancellation, these are a solid pair of earbuds to pick up, sale or not.

Best Beats deals
Why we like it
Beats is an Apple brand, and the technology used in Beats headphones isn’t too dissimilar from that of the AirPods. Both have that instant connectivity with iPhones and Macs that Apple fans won’t live without, and sometimes, even the processors are identical. Beats just do it for several hundred dollars less — and they’re great for clear sound on phone calls outside or on the go.
In the over-ear headphones category, we can’t resist this 51% discount on the Beats Studio Pro cans. They offer lossless audio, active noise cancellation, and all-day battery life, not to mention skin-tone colorways that you won’t find with the AirPods Max. And if you prefer earbuds, the best Beats wireless earbuds are also on sale.
