Amazon's latest savings event, Prime Big Deal Days, is chugging through its second and final day. While the 48-hour whirlwind sale is the shopping giant's second of this year, the October Prime Day is proving just as excellent, with Apple Prime Day deals aplenty. Most notably, the AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) hit a new lowest price ever of $189, beating July's Prime Day price by $10.

Apple rarely has sales on their own products, so it's prime time (pun intended) to take advantage of deals. Otherwise, you'll likely have to gamble on Black Friday for comparable pricing. The whirlwind sale started yesterday, and will conclude tonight at 11:59 p.m. PST, so if you've been waiting to snag the popular earbuds, now's the right time.
Tested by esteemed tech experts within the Good Housekeeping Institute, the second-generation Pros are our pick for the best Apple AirPods. The earbuds come with four different-sized rubber tips to ensure a great fit (a feature that sets them apart from standard AirPods and the new 3rd Generation model). Plus, the price drop nixes the only con we had about the AirPods Pro — that they're expensive.
The other major upgrade introduced with the AirPods Pro is Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode. In fact, our testing experts were impressed by how the two listening modes effectively blocked out busy New York City street sounds and how easy it was to switch back to transparency mode when needed — perks you'd typically only find in over-ear noise-canceling headphones.
It boasts upward of six hours listening time on a single charge (even when using noise cancellation) and up to 30 hours of playtime when the earbuds are paired with the wireless charging case. The water-resistant earbuds can also be worn during workouts, though some of our testers occasionally experienced earbud fallout while running.
With the premiere of the iPhone 15 and Apple's transition to a USB-C charging port, Apple also dropped a new version of AirPods Pro with a USB-C charging port. As of 9 a.m. on October 11, the Lightning charging model sold out, but the USB-C charging model is seeing the same $189 sale price.
