Considering the AirPods Pro are only $170 right now, that extra $15 might be worth spending (fit is important and some people do not like the fit of the Pro): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09JQMJHXY

Also, on Friday Sam's Club will have the AirPods Pro for $150.

I've been really pleased with the AirPods 3, the fit is still good like the AirPods 1&2 and I don't have the discomfort and fit issues I had with the Pros. The sound quality is definitely nicer too and I've even got used to the squeezy stems, although I'd have preferred they kept the tapping gesture too. The only downside I've noticed is they seem to be slower to charge than the AirPods 2, but that's mainly a problem because I only stop using them to charge them or sleep! ?

And a 90 day return policy. Good deal!
I think 4% cash back too. 2% if you have Executive membership, 2% if you have a citi credit card.
