Prime Day is officially over, but Amazon still hasn't flipped the price back on Apple's flagship earbuds. The AirPods Pro 3 are sitting at $179, knocking a clean 28% off their usual $249 list price. If you missed out during the sale, you can still grab Apple's top-tier noise-canceling hardware for $70 off.

Inside, Apple upgraded the noise cancellation to block up to twice as much background sound as the previous generation. Mashable's Adam Doud gave them a 4.75/5 score, noting that the new setup creates a literal cone of silence that wipes out everything from loud crowded rooms to chatter. They also revamped the acoustic design and included five distinct ear tip sizes in the box, delivering punchier bass, clearer instrument detail, and a customized Next-Gen Adaptive EQ that constantly tunes sound to your exact ear shape.

Apple also added built-in health tracking directly to the earbuds. The new heart rate sensors feed workout stats straight to your iPhone's Fitness app, while built-in Live Translation uses Apple Intelligence to translate languages in real time. Battery life gets a huge bump to 8 hours of listening with full noise cancellation active — or up to 10 hours in transparency mode using the new FDA-cleared hearing assistance features.

You also get Apple ecosystem magic: open the case near your iPhone to pair them instantly across your Mac, iPad, and Apple Watch without digging through Bluetooth menus. Add in automatic device switching, and active hearing protection that shields your ears from sudden loud noises, and these easily earn their spot as Apple's best earbuds to date — especially while they're still marked down to $179.
