iPhone users, don’t miss this opportunity to score a great deal on Apple’s best earbuds. Amazon is offering the 3rd generation AirPods Pro noise canceling wireless earbuds for just $199.99 shipped after a 28% off instant discount. This isn’t the absolute lowest price I’ve seen – the lowest was $179 during Amazon Prime Day – but it’s still a great deal for a rare Apple product that hasn’t suffered price hikes recently, unlike iPads and MacBooks.

Apple AirPods Pro 3 Wireless Noise Canceling Earbuds
9
The AirPods Pro 3 launched on September 19 and is the newest generation AirPods Pro. Like its predecessor, this is easily the best earbuds for anyone who uses an iPhone. Although it looks pretty similar to the 2nd gen AirPods, there are some pretty significant improvements under the hood. The most notable new feature is the built-in heart rate sensing (which means you may not need an Apple Watch anymore), but the AirPods Pro 3 improves in other subtle ways as well, including better audio quality, better noise cancelation, long battery life, and a more weatherproof IP57 shell.
Released alongside the AirPods Pro 3 was Apple’s “Live Translation”, which is an Apple Intelligence feature that translates other languages on the fly. This isn’t exclusive to the AirPods Pro since it can also be used with the 2nd gen AirPods Pro and the AirPods 4. First-hand user experiences have generally been positive, including this take from PCMag.
Is the AirPods Pro 3 good for Android phones?
The AirPods Pro 3 is a great earbud for Android in terms of audio quality, noise cancelation, and comfort. However, a lot of the features are incompatible with Android, most notably Live Translation, Siri, and heart rate monitoring. The H2 chip also supports Apple-specific quality of life features that aren’t available with Android phones. This is all compounded by the fact that there are other excellent Android-specific earbuds that offer all of these features and more, sometimes at a better price. So although they will work – and work pretty well – I’d suggest exploring other options. Some choices I’d suggest that are currently on sale are the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 FE for $79.99 (was $150) if you have a Galaxy phone or the Bose Quietcomfort for $129 (was $180) for just about any Android device.
