Getting close to the price when purchasing my first AirPods gen 2. Nice

Record-low? Yes... Low enough for me? Not quite...

I got these recently after returnring my Airpods Pro after 2 weeks due to them not fitting in my ears and causing a great deal of pain.

I actually think the Airpods 3 are better sounding than the Pros. Not a fan of the way noice cancelling feels/sounds. I recommend these. They are way more comfortable, at least for me. I don't know why they aren't as popular yet.

100% agree. I have the original pros and havent used them since getting these. These do fall out but very rarely and only with sudden movement, essentially like my pros. I dont love the plugged up feeling either and these sound awesome

Perhaps what the MR's bot meant was it's a record low from an "affiliate partner"

Oh... really. A staff needs to correct this then!
Maybe something like "near record-low" instead..

I think they aren’t a significant enough upgrade vs. AirPods 2, especially when those are regularly on sale for $89-$99. Also, for me at least, AirPods 2 are more comfortable. If AirPods 4 get volume controls, I might be convinced to upgrade. Unfortunately, the Pros hurt my ears.

Still on Gen 2 myself and not sure if 3's will fit as well. (Hopefully mine will last awhile longer.) I'm also not a fan of inner-ear designs, so the Pros are a no go!

Hopefully by the time I'm ready to replace mine, the 3's will be at a sweet price point.

I wanted to like this (vs my AP1 and AP2's), but the "bulb" got just big enough where I don't find them nearly as comfortable.

The AP3 doesn't "disappear in my ear" like the AP1 and AP2 do -- thus I keep rolling with my AP2's

I'll have to pay attention if those ever get discontinued and buy another set of AP2s I guess
