The headphones’ noise cancellation can block out tons of background chatter and other environmental sounds without distorting your music. When you need to hear what’s going on around you, Transparency mode brings outside sound in naturally, so you don’t have to remove the headphones to stay aware.

Amazon did not mess around for Prime Day 2025, delivering record-low prices on the entire lineup of AirPods. The new AirPods 4 earbuds dropped to a historic $89, somehow. The AirPods Pro 2 fell to $149. And Beats, the AirPods' cool little sibling, also went on sale (FYI, Beats deals are still going strong for the post-Prime Day weekend).

We are now into day 2 of Amazon Prime Day. I still expect more unseen deals to trickle out, but for those of you who have been waiting for Apple deals specifically, there's no need to wait because the deals have already gone live.
