Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 are currently available for $199.99 at Amazon, marking one of the lowest prices recorded for the recently released earbuds, according to deals trackers at 9to5Mac. The discount, representing nearly $50 off the standard $249 price, arrives ahead of Amazon’s anticipated 2026 Sizeable Spring Sale, potentially signaling an early wave of promotional offers.
The AirPods Pro 3, launched alongside the iPhone 17, Apple Watch Ultra 3, and Series 11 wearables last September, feature the “world’s best in-ear Active Noise Cancellation,” according to Apple. The latest iteration boasts up to two times greater noise cancellation than the previous AirPods Pro 2 model. Fresh features include heart rate sensing during workouts and improved hearing health capabilities.
Beyond noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro 3 offer high-definition spatial listening, redesigned ear tips for a more secure fit, and live translation capabilities in select languages. Battery life provides up to eight hours of listening time with Active Noise Cancellation enabled. The earbuds are also IP57 certified for dust, sweat, and water resistance.
The current promotion at Amazon follows previous discounts, including an all-time low of $199 during the Christmas 2025 period and a brief $185 offer through Verizon, which was difficult to secure. Analysts suggest further price drops during the Big Spring Sale are unlikely to be substantial.
Other Apple products are also seeing discounts. 9to5Toys reports that 24GB M4 MacBook Air models are available at $300 off, even as Best Buy is offering a $50 credit with the purchase of a MacBook Neo for members. M3 iPad Air models are discounted by $200, and Apple’s current-generation iPad is available for $299.
AirPods Pro 3 are compatible with non-Apple devices via Bluetooth, though some Apple-exclusive features, such as automatic device switching and Spatial Audio, are not available on non-Apple hardware. Pairing with non-Apple devices requires placing the AirPods in the charging case, holding the case near the device, and double-tapping the front of the case until the status light flashes white.
