Cheap AirPods sales history
Generally speaking, AirPods sales fluctuate from $99 to $129 (for the standard AirPods), so any cheap AirPods sales within that price range are a good deal. Anything above $139, and we'd recommend waiting for the next batch of AirPods sales. (Keep in mind that the standard AirPods hit an all-time price low of $69 on Black Friday).
Meanwhile, the AirPods 3 hit $139 in November, which is their best price ever. The new AirPods Pro 2nd (2022) hit an all-time low of $179 this spring. They can be found for $199 regularly, even outside of major holidays. Finally, the AirPods Max traditionally cost $549, but Amazon recently had them on sale for just $429, which has been their all-time price low.

Which cheap AirPods should you get?
The Editor's Choice second-gen AirPods (2019) are great for most Apple fans. They're the best cheap AirPods you can get and use Apple's H1 chip to rapidly connect to your Apple devices. They also feature hands-free Siri. That’s right, instead of having to tap out your Siri requests on those long, thin AirPod stems, you can simply say "Hey Siri," and launch the ubiquitous digital assistant.
The pricier AirPods Pro offer the same features as the AirPods, but add water/sweat resistance and noice cancellation to the mix. They also sport a new design that's more modern than the AirPods 2. They come with different sized ear tips to create a custom fit that's perfect for your ears.
We've worn our AirPods Pro 2 for everything from running to high intensity interval training. We've also worn them in the rain and while sweating through a burpee workout. The buds remain sturdy in our ear and they sound great. They also feature a transparency mode that's good for runners and other pedestrians who want to keep track of their surroundings while listening to music.
Make sure to check out our AirPods 3 vs. AirPods Pro comparison for a side-by-side look at both earbuds. And check out our AirPods Pro 2 review to see what we think of Apple's new buds.
