Apple's September 9 "It's Glowtime" event announced the arrival of new iPhones, Apple Watches, and AirPods. Now that it's officially confirmed, we know that AirPods 4 are coming, bringing two new versions including a pair with active noise cancellation. Plus, AirPods Max are getting a new color and USB-C charger and AirPod Pros are getting a hearing test and hearing aid feature. But new products mean discounts on existing models that, let's be clear, are still full of fantastic tech.

We were watching the deals come in yesterday, and they were perfectly fine, but today, things are really starting to pop-off. Both AirPod Pro and AirPod Max headphones are just short of their lowest price ever, for up to 27% savings. With the new AirPods coming, things are in flux and there's no guarantee that discounts will remain. If you're anxious to get a pair of AirPods and don't want to pay full price, here are the best Apple AirPod deals to shop now.

Best AirPod (2nd gen) deal

$129 Save $40

Why we like it

The Apple AirPods (2nd gen) are the ideal starter headphones. With a delightfully compact case, they can be tucked into pockets and bags so you always have access on the go. The biggest perk is their seamless connection to iPhones. Unlike other headphones, there's no button you have to press to get a Bluetooth connection. All you have to do is open the case, and they magically connect within seconds. These don't feature noise cancellation, but they're nonetheless fantastic.

Currently, you can find Apple AirPods (2nd gen) on sale at Amazon for $89, saving a sweet $40. It's about $20 more than their lowest price ever, but the current 31% savings isn't bad.

Best Apple AirPod (3rd generation) deal

$169 Save $20

Why we like it

If you want a little more from your AirPods, look to the 3rd generation model. While these still don't feature active noise cancellation, the audio quality they offer is a significant upgrade from the 2nd gen model. In the AirPods (3rd gen), you'll receive spatial audio that tracks sound and is even compatible with Dolby Atmos.

You can find them at B&H Photo for $149, knocking $20 off the price for 12% off. This is a rare deal, considering even Amazon is currently selling the AirPods (3rd gen) for full price.

Best AirPods Max deal

$549 Save $150

Why we like it

The vast market of over-the-ear headphones includes stellar options when it comes to comfort and audio quality, but it's hard to deny the popularity of Apple's AirPod Max headphones. Their futuristic and colorful design makes them fun to wear, and like all AirPods, their ease of connectivity is exceptional. But one thing about these headphones — we've never loved their $549 price tag.

So if you're going to buy Apple AirPods Max, buy them on sale. Currently, you can find them from $399 at Amazon, which saves you $159 for 27%. AirPods Max prices are always in flux, and if you don't mind buying this older generation that uses a lightning charger (the latest update will have a USB-C charger), we highly recommend grabbing a pair now when they're below $400.

Best AirPod Pro deal

$249 Save $59.01

Why we like it

While basic AirPods can certainly get the job done, AirPod Pros kick it up a notch. Before the announcement at Apple's "It's Glowtime" event, AirPod Pros were the only earbuds from the brand to have active noise cancellation (now AirPods 4 will also have it). However, AirPod Pros also provide resistance against dust, sweat, and water, especially important for commuters or outdoor athletes.

While AirPod Pros aren't getting a massive upgrade, they are about to receive an update that includes a hearing aid feature, emphasizing Apple's commitment to accessibility. However, that means current AirPods are getting a discount. Find Pros for just $189.99, saving $59.01 for 24% off.
