Some fads come and go, but it would appear that AirPods are forever.

We’ve been living with Apple’s signature wireless headphones since the release of the iPhone 7 in 2016, when they ushered in a wireless earbud revolution.

Since then, it seems you can’t walk five feet without seeing a pair in someone’s ears — and for good reason. With each subsequent release, AirPods just seem to get better and better, even though they were great to begin with.

Lucky for you, today marks the kickoff of Prime Day, Amazon’s biggest sale of the year. After weeks of anticipation, the two-day deal extravaganza is finally here, offering thousands of doorbuster deals on everything from baby clothes to beauty products, Apple products to air fryers, and everything in between, including huge savings on AirPods.

Below, we’ve rounded up the best AirPods deals we could find during Amazon’s Prime Day, including some all-time low prices on all-time bestsellers.

Plus, for more unmissable Prime Day deals exclusively for Amazon Prime subscribers, make sure to head to the Post Wanted Prime Day homepage. We’ve covered everything from the Best Prime Day Deals to splurge-worthy items, our favorite Prime Day beauty finds, and more.

Happy listening!

Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)

Apple’s newest model of in-ear headphones, the 2nd Generation AirPods Pro with wireless charging case, have all the same features and capabilities as the previous generation, plus many more. With richer audio experience, next-level noise cancellation, and more intuitive controls, Apple truly stepped up its game with its 2nd Generation.

Apple AirPods (3rd Generation)

The 3rd Generation Apple AirPods offer Spatial Audio that tracks where your head is about your phone, plus a water and sweat-resistant charging case, and 6 hours of listening time.

Apple AirPods Max

AmazonAmazon

The Apple AirPods Max, which came out in Dec. 2020, are the brand’s first over-ear headphones. These headphones feature spatial sound, giving you a three-dimensional listening experience. The AirPods Max give up to 20 hours of listening time on a single charge (it only takes 5 minutes of charging to get around 1.5 hours of audio!), and they’re available in five different colors.

Apple EarPods

Apple EarPods offer sleek design and clear audio, seamlessly integrating with Apple devices via Lightning or Bluetooth. Their ergonomic fit ensures comfort during extended use, while built-in controls facilitate easy navigation and calls. With a balanced sound profile and compact case for charging on the go, they redefine everyday listening convenience.

Beats Powerbeats Pro Wireless Earbuds

TargetTarget

Did you know Apple makes Beats? For the same great sound quality as AirPods, thanks to the Apple H1 chip that powers these buds, in a slightly different shape, try Powerbeats Pro — now matching its lowest price of the year.

Beats Fit Pro

HSNHSN

These Beats earbuds have the same H1 processor chip that the AirPods 3 do and also support audio sharing with other Beats headphones and AirPods. Some other features include noise cancellation, transparency mode, and spatial audio with head-tracking.

Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones

TargetTarget

If you love the sound quality of your AirPods, but prefer an over-ear fit (and a much lower price point than the AirPods Max), these Beats (which are at a yearly low price today) are powered by the exact same tech used in Apple AirPods, the Apple W1 chip.
