I got a pair and have to say the overall sound was very good (for Bluetooth). However, much to my chagrin I could not use them more than about 40 minutes before they more than bothered my ears due to their shape. I went back to the previous generation 2 and missed out on the goodness of the 3's. Those that can use them comfortably will find this price to be more than worth it.

I was sad when I had to return mine last year because they kept falling out of my ears. I had to get the 2nd gen ones.

I wish they would have made a 3rd gen version with the design of the 2nd but all the new tech of the 3rd gen.

These things have been relentlessly on sale since just a bit after release.

Makes one wonder if they aren’t moving off the shelves well.

They were too much of a design departure for me personally.

I use the Powerbeats Pro due to their around the ear design, it's the only way I can use these devices without them falling off.

AirPods in general are commonly on sale. People only pay the full Apple MSRP if they want to.

I think it’s more so that the additional features this has over Gen 2 aren’t that impressive. It’s more of an incremental upgrade.
Well…that and the design change makes it not even an “upgrade” at all depending upon one’s preference or ear fit, etc.
