These AirPods Pro Black Friday deals have convinced me to buy them for the fourth time
I’ve owned Apple’s AirPods since their first debut, way back in December 2016. Yet it wasn’t until I bought AirPods Pro in 2020 that I was truly sold on what they could do — mainly thanks to their wicked noise-canceling. I’d never been able to switch between transparency mode and noise-canceling with my previous headphones. Unfortunately, I was one of a certain set of users, who would experience the crackling in one AirPod — and this happened three times.
It dampened the experience of owning them, I admit, causing frequent trips to the Apple Store to get them replaced. You can imagine my excitement when the AirPods Pro 2 were announced — no more crackling, no more replacements, and no more trips to the Apple Store. I bought a pair back in July during the Amazon Prime Day sale and I loved the improved noise-canceling that they offered.
Soon after though, I’d be unlucky once again, but not due to a fault with the buds themselves. Instead, a new version with a USB-C port in the case was released not two months after I bought my Lightning-equipped pair. Apple didn’t see fit to sell the new case separately, thanks to the AirPods being improved as well — I am told to prepare for hi-res audio with Apple Vision Pro.
I was gutted. In my backpack, I have a few USB-C wires to charge my Mac, Steam Deck, and Sony XM5 headphones — but just one Lightning cable for my AirPods Pro. Thanks to Amazon’s Black Friday sale, however, I may be able to move on from my frustration and invest in a pair of USB-C AirPods Pro 2. It’s not often they’re reduced, but you can currently get a pair for $189, down from $249.

I hear you say that I could choose another pair of AirPods that have even better deals — but I want noise-canceling and USB-C. The ones I’d really like are the AirPods Max, which would replace both my in-ear AirPods Pro and over-head Sony XM5 headphones. The AirPods Max are four years old at this point though, so I worry that these will be replaced by a brand new model as soon as I buy my fourth AirPods Pro.
Instead, I’ll play it safe, and see how well these AirPods Pro USB-C fare — especially as this means that I’ll finally be free of Lightning port.
