Black Friday doesn’t officially kick off until the morning of Nov. 29 but the AirPods and Beats headphones deals are here now. The big news of the week: For the first time since they were announced in October, Apple’s new AirPods Pro are selling below list price. Amazon’s $15 discount brings the price down to $235. (Note that they’re currently out of stock and Amazon says they may not ship for months to come!)
Otherwise, we’re seeing consistent discounting across the other AirPods and Beats models at Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart — many of which are selling below list price. Have a look below for all of the best links.
One thing to consider: Apple offers free custom engraving on all AirPods and AirPods Pro cases when you buy from it directly. You’ll get no such offer from third-party retailers such as Amazon.
