Ever since Prime Day, these buds have stubbornly held at $199, which is the usual 'sales price' for Apple's premium buds. </p><p>Even though the record low is officially $169, the AirPods Pro 3 only hit that on one occasion over Prime Day, so today's price cut is definitely worth considering. Even at $189, the AirPods Pro 3 are an excellent buy for anyone looking for some high-end buds. Not only do they feature excellent noise cancellation, but they're packed with new features like heart rate monitoring and Live Translation.</p><h2 id="the-airpods-pro-3-are-cheaper-today-at-amazon">The AirPods Pro 3 are cheaper today at Amazon</h2><div class="product"><a data-dimension112="90d1346a-91b1-11f1-b7b1-f18dfbe5d460" data-action="Deal Block" data-label="Amazon has dropped Apple's AirPods Pro 3 to $189.99, which is the best deal I've seen on these buds in well over a month.

While not exactly cheap, they offer excellent noise cancellation and sound quality. </p><p>If we had to draw any criticisms, we'd mention that the AirPods Pro 3 don't have class-leading battery life (around 5.5 hours in our testing). You'll also need one of the latest iPhones to really take advantage of their full suite of features like Live Translation and personalized fitness insights. They're still great with older devices, but iPhone 15 and newer devices support Apple Intelligence, which is required for the newest bells and whistles. </p> </article> ]]>
