During last year’s Amazon Prime Day, we saw Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 headphones discounted to their best price ever. The deal was so good I couldn’t resist treating myself to a set. I knew they would be good, but I honestly don’t think I could live without them now.
The UK and US deals are a little different. In the UK, Amazon has dropped the RRP to £199, so despite the Amazon deal only showing as having a discount of 10%, the Airpods Pro 2 is now back down to its lowest ever price of £179. In the US, they currently have a very tempting 33% off, bringing the price down to $179. It’s a great price, although it doesn’t quite match their all-time best price from earlier in the year.
I have used my AirPods Pro 2 every day since I got them. I use them while I work, when I travel, around the house and I have even used them for a motivational music boost mid bikepacking race.
They have endured a hard life bouncing around in my pockets with keys, carelessly tossed in bags and drenched in rain, yet they still work faultlessly. If they did happen to break right now, I would instantly buy another pair without a second thought. I love them.
The sound quality is really impressive and the noise cancellation is staggering, silencing noisy environments so I can clearly hear my music whether I’m working in a busy coffee shop, travelling or turbo training with a fan on full blast. The only time I don’t use the Airpods Pro 2 is when I’m out for a road ride, where I will opt for Shokz Open Run Pro 2 (which are also discounted) for better awareness of my surroundings. Even then, when the Airpods Pro 2 are in Transparency mode, I can still hear what’s going on around me, or there is the Adaptive mode, which modulates the noise cancellation based on your environment.
If you use other Apple products, you will be able to take full advantage of all the AirPods features. At home, I particularly like the dual connection function, so I can easily connect and switch between my phone and laptop. The case also has Find My tech built in, which has already proved its worth, allowing me to track down the case when it fell out of my pocket at a coffee shop.
Both the case and the earbuds themselves charge super fast too, so if your a forgetful charger, or like me simply use them all the time you can quickly charge them back up. Just 5 minutes in the case gives you an hour of listening and the case will fully charge in less than two hours. Between earbuds and case, at full charge you will get up…
