“Under $200” for $199.99 is a bit of a stretch, considering the penny is not in production anymore. And tax.

This is the first time in 2026 that we've tracked the AirPods Pro 3 at this low price
I think you could have just as easily said "this is the lowest price we've seen all week".... It's Jan 7th.

Reminder that Costco sells them for $249 WITH TWO YEARS OF APPLECARE, which is a $40 value.

The 3s really have insanely good ANC. But music sounds better on the 2s. The 3s have a hyped treble, making them a bit shrill. And somehow they drain the excitement out of exciting moments in music. For one of many examples, that exciting rise in "Jessica" (Allman Brothers) sounds as great as always on the 2s, but it's just a bunch of lifeless notes on the 3s. So - the 3s are better if you regularly need overwhelmingly good ANC on airplanes ... but the 2s are better for everything else. I'm debating whether to return my 3s. (The ear tips of both fit me pretty well, so that's a non-issue for me.)

the bud / tip shape redesign no longer fits in my ears with any tip. they all slide out or are too small making ANC useless. Thanks Tim
Finally AirPods Pro that fit my ears. Thanks Tim!
