Apple’s AirPods continue to be one of the most popular wireless earbuds on the market, with their signature stark-white design and consistently clear audio making the buds a must-have accessory for both music lovers and casual listeners alike.
The AirPods Pro are now in their second incarnation, with the Apple AirPods Pro having been released this fall. That’s led to deep discounts on the previous AirPods models, as well as the older AirPods Max.
Apple never offers discounts on its own website but we’ve found the cheapest prices for AirPods online on Amazon. Here’s where to find the best AirPods deals right now as part of the best Prime Day Early Access Sales.
1. AirPods 2nd Generation
The second-generation AirPods came out a few years ago but you shouldn’t sleep on them if you’re looking for a great AirPods deal. Right now, the AirPods (2nd-Gen) are on sale for just $99 — a whopping $60 off their regular price of $159+, and the cheapest price we’re seeing for these AirPods right now.
These AirPods get you Apple’s H1 chip for a seamless wireless connection and low-latency sound, plus hands-free listening and controls using Siri. Get five hours of playback time on a single charge and up to 24 hours with the included charging case.

2. AirPods Max
Apple’s AirPods Max combine great audio quality in a premium over-ear design. They feature active noise cancelling to help seal off outside noise when you’re listening to music, or taking a call. Switch over to “transparency mode” when you want to listen to music but still hear the environment around you (say, to hear traffic while you’re running or to chat with a co-worker).
Regularly $549+, Amazon’s AirPods Max sale has the headphones marked down to just $479 — a $70 discount. Get them on Amazon now.
Note: all of these AirPod deals were live as of this writing but as with all Prime Early Access sales, prices are subject to change. We recommend adding these AirPods to your cart now to take advantage of the limited-time discounts before the prices go up again. See more Apple AirPods deals online here.
