If you’re looking for an affordable option for Apple’s latest earbuds, the AirPods Pro are a good option. They’re available at a fraction of the cost of other models, and they offer features that make them better than other options. The AirPods Pro come in three different colors: black, blue, and red. They have a light-up design that makes them easy to find in dark environments, and they also have an inline microphone and speaker that allow you to take calls or listen to music without having to remove your headphones. The AirPods Pro are also water resistant, so you can use them while swimming or running if necessary. They come with a one-year warranty, so you can be sure that they’ll be able to last long enough for your needs.


This is Apple’s original pair of active noise cancelling (ANC) earbuds, released in October 2019. It can easily block out your surroundings in noisy areas, and there’s also a transparency mode for the opposite situation. The AirPods Pro also has IPX4 water resistance, so it won’t be damaged from sweat (but don’t dunk them in water), and is powered by the same H1 chip as the second-generation regular AirPods.

This model has a MagSafe case, which means it can charge using a Lightning cable or a wireless charging pad. The second-generation model introduced this year has better noise cancellation, a lanyard loop, improved touch controls, and a few other minor changes. However, the original AirPods are still excellent headphones for anyone in the Apple ecosystem (and doesn’t mind a Lightning port), especially considering the latest version is much pricier at $249.

Verizon has discounted the original AirPods Pro with MagSafe Case to $159.99, a discount of 36% from the original price, seemingly the lowest price yet from a major store. You don’t need to be a Verizon subscriber to order the earbuds.
