It's still a rip-off for a product released more than 4 years ago.

Still overpriced. I see a lot of celebrities and professional athletes wearing these on TV but I rarely see them in the wild.

I got a set of Air Pods Pro 2 for about $150 around Black Friday and I thought those were a steal. For $150 they’re pretty awesome.

Anyone buying this is supporting this ******** update. Apple should not be encouraged.

Might be an all time low but the price is still very high. But for those who are specifically looking out to buy this one, this should be a good price as I don't see any more discounts being offered. Maybe at around $300 I would consider it. Besides I am very happy with my AirPods.

i love mine but they have a very specific use case. They are my focus headphones for work, and live at my desk.

They don’t travel as well as my Sony Xm3 and they don’t work for me on planes because the seal breaks when i lean back and I lose the noise cancellation. This is too bad because otherwise they are better in every way. The travel case sucks though.

I do wish they had fixed a few things when updating to usb c because I find them to be excellent otherwise.
