Solid deals have returned for the AirPods 2 and AirPods Pro on Amazon, offering up to $69 off these popular headphones.

AirPods 2
You can get the AirPods 2 for $99.99, down from $129.00. This remains the best price we've seen on the AirPods 2 since their all-time low sale during Prime Day. At just $10 higher today, this is still a solid second-best price.
This is the model of AirPods that comes with the Wired Charging Case. Apple discontinued the AirPods 2 with the Wireless Charging Case so we haven't seen any notable deals on that accessory in months.
AirPods Pro with MagSafe
Secondly, Amazon has the AirPods Pro with MagSafe Charging Case for $179.99, down from $249.00. This is the second-best price we've ever tracked on the new AirPods Pro.
The new AirPods Pro launched in 2021, and are essentially the same as the 2019 model with the addition of the new MagSafe Charging Case. Shoppers should note that we are expecting new AirPods Pro at Apple's "Far Out" event tomorrow, but there likely won't be any significant deals for a long time.
We track sales for every model of the AirPods in our Best AirPods Deals guide, so be sure to bookmark that page while you shop around for the wireless headphones.

The M4 MacBook Pro models feature quantum dot display technology, according to display analyst Ross Young. Apple used a quantum dot film instead of a red KSF phosphor film, a change that provides more vibrant, accurate color results.
Young says that Apple has opted for KSF for prior MacBook Pro models because it doesn't use toxic element cadmium (typical for quantum dot) and is more...

Apple today added a few older iPhone and Apple Watch models to the vintage and obsolete products list on its website.
Apple has now classified the iPhone 6s Plus and iPhone XS Max as "vintage" worldwide. Apple considers a device to be "vintage" once five years have passed since the company stopped distributing it for sale. Apple and Apple Authorized Service Providers sometimes offer repairs...
I’ve got 3 sets in my home, all replaced once for sound distortion (like a blown speaker) and 2 of the replacements are failing. There’s an entire repair program that has been repeatedly extended for these overpriced faulty earbuds. Glad your pairs are doing well, but I wouldn’t recommend them.
Yeah they had 3 years to think about it so hopefully they got it fixed. Great piece of technology though. Can’t wait to try them but I might wait it out till December to see what the general users experiences are.
Supposedly the issue was with only some of the initial production run. So yeah waiting a bit for some feedback and good sales is probably a good idea.
