Deals: AirPods With Wired Charging Case Return to $109.99 Today on Amazon ($49 Off)

[MacRumors]

Amazon today has returned the AirPods with Charging Case down to $109.99, from $159.00, following a discount of $18.99 applied at checkout. We previously saw this pair of AirPods go to $99 over Black Friday, and this subsequent deal appeared shortly thereafter.

While not the deepest discount, it's now likely the best price you'll find on the AirPods before Christmas. Stock won't arrive until December 21, but Amazon is still guaranteeing Christmas delivery if ordered soon. You can also lock in the $109.99 sale price if you order today.

the terrible microphones and sound codec in these threw me off the airpod train

in order to have intelligible conversations, wired earpods is still the only way to go

Really? I've seen these used on national TV interviews a bunch of times and it seemed okay. Personally they don't fit my ears so I'm waiting for the Pro's to be $99. We'll see if that happens. Until then the $20 brandless bluetooth jobs I have work fine.

Is this quality just when using a Mac? If so, it's likely related to the codec (see: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/282705/airpods-extremely-poor-mic-quality-on-mac). The microphones in AirPods are quite good (and generally sound great for voice when connected to phones).

I regularly use AirPods for phone calls and speak with people using AirPods. The calls have always sounded good and clear. I wouldn't use AirPod microphones to record music but they are not designed for that. They are designed for voice; they do a good job with voice.

They really need to keep this discount permanently. They're not worth the $159 price tag and you could argue they're not worth $109.

Looks like the deal is already dead? I was going to get a pair for my gf.

Wow, I feel stupid. Thanks! That worked.

Same $109 price at Costco.

Cared no one.

Give me the retail beta tester discount for the AirPods Max, and you’re talking my language.

There are YouTube vids comparing the Earpods and various generations of airpods - the difference is stark. AirPods sound terrible in n comparison - warbley, frequent dropouts, and a distinct lesser amount of high frequencies, which is most important for intelligibility.

My personal experience is that the person on the other end often has trouble underetanding me with Airpods. They NEVER have trouble understanding me with wired Earpods.

Just bought them full price at Apple and they came in today. I'm a little pissed. I hesitant to buy things like that from Amazon because so many fakes are floating around.

The shipping date has already backed up until after Christmas.

I'm on my second AirPods Pro replacement. Lots of electrostatic and whistling sounds. IMHO these older airpods worked better than the new ones.

Batteries don't last. You will be down to 5 minute talk time in a little over a year.

Look for “ships from and sold by Amazon”.
