AirPods 4 with ANC hit best price in months at Amazon today, Pro 3 at $50 off, more from $99
This week has ushered in a notable $50 price drop on Apple’s latest AirPods Pro 3 for folks who didn’t get a chance to land a set during the Prime Day festivities last month. But it also delivered an ongoing price drop on the most affordable AirPods 4 set at nearly 25% off and, as of this morning, the AirPods 4 with ANC have now dropped to the best price in several months at $144.99 shipped.
As you can see above the base model AirPods 4 and AirPods Pro 3 deals are still rolling over at Amazon, but if you are looking to land a pair of Apple’s least expensive current-generation buds with active noise cancellation, the AirPods 4 with ANC have hit the best price since March.
Amazon is now offering AirPods 4 with ANC down at $144.99 shipped. Regularly $179, this is a straight up 20% price drop and the lowest we can find.
You’re also looking at the lowest price we have featured on Amazon since early/mid March – the AirPods with ANC did not drop below $149 for Prime Day this year and were fetching as much as $164 at the beginning of last month.
Amazon offering base M5 MacBook Pro at $150 off new list price, M5 Pro/Max up to $400 off
The price of the current-generation M5, M5 Pro, and M5 Max lineup has gone up, but if you are looking to land a machine right now, Amazon does at least have some price relief here. The base M5 models are as much as $150 off the new list prices and some of the higher-end 16-inch models are up to $400 off.
As of right now these are the configurations sitting with the deepest deals right now. You’re looking at $150 off the new list prices on the M5 and as much as $300 off the M5 Pro and up to $400 off M5 Max.
Yes the prices have gone up, and these machines were less pricey not more than a month ago at this point, but it is what it is and if you are looking to score a machine you certainly don’t want to pay any more than you have to buying one straight from Apple. There’s no telling if the prices will ever go back down at this point.
