AirPods Pro 3 | Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge It’s been a while since we’ve seen a good discount on the Apple AirPods Pro 3, but like the latest iPad Mini and the M5 MacBook Airs, a great one is happening now for October Prime Day. You can snag a pair of the noise-canceling earbuds that include five ear tip sizes, live translation, and fantastic sound for $179 at Amazon (originally $249). I expect other retailers to offer a similar price in the coming days. This is the first time the price has gone below $190 since Prime Day in June. Since then, Apple launched the AirPods 5, and the most feature-complete version with a wireless charging case costs $149.99. Those are great if you prefer earbuds that don’t form a seal in your ears, but for everyone else, the AirPods Pro 3 are a much better value at just $30 more right now.
