Sales on the AirPods 3 have been very scarce over the last few months, with the last notable discount popping up around Black Friday. Amazon's deal today is about $10 higher than the all-time low price on this model, making it a solid second-best price.

If you're okay with purchasing an older generation model, Amazon also has the AirPods 2 for $99.00, down from $129.00. We track sales for every model of the AirPods in our Best AirPods Deals guide, so be sure to bookmark that page while you shop around for the wireless headphones.

I've been tempted by these but I think I'll wait until these go USB-C as well. I think I'm done buying anything with a Lightning connector.

These hurt my ears (bulb is bigger)

I much prefer the AP1/AP2 size and shape in ear
Same here, but got used to it after a few months. What I have not gotten used to is how often they fall out compared to the AP1/AP2. I do like the sound better in the AP3.
