The best Prime Day deals on AirPods:
Need a new pair of AirPods? You can always find Apple’s earbuds and headphones on sale for cheaper than usual during Prime Day — not just on Amazon, but at competing retailers, too.
Today is the final day of Prime Day 2026, and Amazon’s inventory is fluctuating as the clock winds down. Case in point: The top AirPods deal was the over-ear AirPods Max 2 for a record-low $399 on Amazon, but they’ve officially sold out. If you missed it, don’t panic — Best Buy still has them in stock and on sale for $479 ($70 off).

Meanwhile, the entry-level AirPods 4 and noise-cancelling AirPods Pro 3 are both on sale for up to $70 off this Prime Day. Neither model is matching its biggest discount on record, but given Apple’s plans for price hikes in the near future, these are probably going to be their best deals for a while.
Read on for our rundown of the best Prime Day AirPods deals available. If you’re a brand loyalist, be sure to check out our dedicated guide to the top Prime Day deals on all Apple products.

Why we like it
The vanilla AirPods 4 are our No. 1 Apple earbuds for budget buyers. In our testing, they sounded fantastic, fit comfortably, and worked seamlessly with other Apple devices. We saw them drop all the way down to $69 last Black Friday, but $99 is their best price so far in 2026. Save $30 at Amazon and Walmart. (PSA: Walmart also has pre-owned AirPods 4 on sale for just $65.)
The AirPods 4 are also available with ANC. That pair is on sale for $148.99 (normally $179) at Amazon, Walmart, and Costco. For reference, their record-low price is $99.

Best AirPods Pro deal

$249
Save $70
The AirPods Pro 3 are our favorite AirPods across all price points, offering great ANC, an eight-hour battery life, plus extra fixings like a built-in heart rate monitor. They’re also more water- and sweat-resistant than the regular AirPods 4, making them better for working out. They were only $169 on Amazon last week, but at the time of writing, they were sitting at $179 there.

Best AirPods Max deal
$479
at Best Buy
$549
Save $70
Apple’s newly updated headphones have better ANC than the original AirPods Max from 2021. They run on the same H2 chip as the AirPods Pro 3, so they support the same software features (such as Live Translation and Conversation Awareness). Amazon had them for $399 earlier this week, but they’re sold out now. Thankfully, Best Buy is still offering a $70 discount, bringing them down to $479.
