Apple AirPod Pro 2 Discount

Apple debuted the AirPods Pro 2 late last year, alongside the all-new iPhone 14 series, including the iPhone 14 Pro Max, as well as the Apple Watch Series 8, which sports a new Ultra variant.

At launch, the iPhone maker offered the second-generation AirPods Pro 2 for $249.99, similar pricing as its older sibling. But despite the similar price tag, the newer option offers some improvements right off the bat.

And now, as per Apple Insider, retailers like Best Buy and Amazon are offering the AirPods Pro 2 with a huge $50 discount while stocks last.

So if you get your hands on it now, you could save at least $50. With that much saving, you may purchase a MagSafe Charger, which starts at $39, or perhaps an iPhone 14 case.

If the $50 AirPods Pro 2 discount is still a bit expensive for you, you might want to patiently wait for the rumored 'AirPods Lite.'

The iPhone maker is reportedly working on new budget-friendly true wireless earbuds, which might debut next year or in 2024.

CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA - SEPTEMBER 07: The new Apple Watch Ultra, iPhone 14 and AirPods Pro are displayed during an Apple special event on September 07, 2022 in Cupertino, California. Apple unveiled the new iPhone 14 as well as new versions of the Apple Watch, including the Apple Watch SE, a low-cost version of the popular timepiece that will start st $249.

The AirPods Pro 2 offers a few upgrades and refinements and its similar pricing to the older option is absolutely tempting.

Forbes reports that the new AirPods Pro flaunts a new H2 chip, which Apple touts that it offers twice more active noise cancellation or ANC compared to the H1 chip that powers the first generation.

The Transparency mode of the second generation also got better with a new "Adaptive Transparency," allowing users to hear the outside world clearly.

The battery life of the new AirPods Pro is also way better.

To be more precise, the first AirPods Pro still offers up to 5 hours of listening time while the ANC feature is turned off, which is enough for most users. On the other hand, the second-gen achieves a 6-hour listening time rating.

The AirPods Pro 2 is now available on Amazon and Best Buy for only $199.

In case you missed it, Apple recently dished out a new firmware update for the AirPods Pro, as well as the AirPods and AirPods Max.
