I think 4% cash back too. 2% if you have Executive membership, 2% if you have a citi credit card.

AirPods Pros is now $20 less than I paid a week ago. Guess I'll just return it to Amazon and buy the now cheaper one. Their chat service said they do not do post-sale adjustments. Waste of their time and money for me to return it.

Considering the AirPods Pro are only $170 right now, that extra $15 might be worth spending (fit is important and some people do not like the fit of the Pro): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09JQMJHXY

Also, on Friday Sam's Club will have the AirPods Pro for $150.

I've been really pleased with the AirPods 3, the fit is still good like the AirPods 1&2 and I don't have the discomfort and fit issues I had with the Pros. The sound quality is definitely nicer too and I've even got used to the squeezy stems, although I'd have preferred they kept the tapping gesture too. The only downside I've noticed is they seem to be slower to charge than the AirPods 2, but that's mainly a problem because I only stop using them to charge them or sleep! ?

Just picked up Pro's to replace my Gen1 AirPods from 2017. With the sales going on now no reason not to get the Pro's over the 2/3's as long as the fit well and don't mess with your ears

Pro is at Walmart for 159….pretty sure I saw that in their ad. Might be select time this week. Last year ordered them at 169 from walmart online without any trouble.

If the Pro's are a fit comfort wise or preference wise, absolutely.

But lack of in-ear stuff jammed into your ear hole is a MAJOR upside to AirPods gen3 for some, preference wise. Cannot be overstated.

Thanks to you both. I prefer Costco, and I also have the Exec membership & Citi Costco Visa.

We tried them, sent back. The painful fit only one of the several annoying problems for our needs. The one problem I cannot understand, no volume control other than pause on the EarPods. Not real interested in pressing, than asking Siri to turn down and up the volume, wait for response. Or dig in picket for phone to change volume. Sound the positive in our experience. Interesting, the only Apple product since the first Macintosh 1980’s sent back for not meeting our expectations. Hope they are the last.

I really don’t know why this misconception persists. Nothing is inserted into the ear canal. The tips seal the entrance to the ear canal (of necessity for ANC), similar to if you were to plug your ears with your fingers.

therein lies the problem. this is something some people dont want to feel.

Honestly, I would recommend just spring for the pro, since they are $169.99 now. That is only $15 more and not even 10%.

 

[andywaynebrooks]

ummmm... nope

Yeah I was wondering that too....

Exactly. While the Pros are great in noisy environments, in other situations I prefer the open design of the non-Pros.

Looks like they are sold out at Amazon (currently only available from 3rd party vendors). But the Apple Black Friday deal is essentially the same assuming you have a use for an Apple gift card.
