Save $50 on AirPods Pro, Galaxy Buds+ with delivery in time for Christmas

By

Headphones always make a great gift idea for all the family or simply as a treat for yourself. This holiday season, you can save $50 on the Apple AirPods Pro or Samsung Galaxy Buds+ at Amazon, giving you big savings and plenty of choice for how you want to listen. Even better, both are ready to be delivered in time for Christmas. If you’re looking for other headphone deals, we’ve got you covered there, too.

Samsung Galaxy Buds+ — $100, was $150

Ordinarily priced at $150, the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ are down to just $100 and that’s a pretty great deal. We were big fans of them in our Samsung Galaxy Buds+ review, appreciating their fantastic 11-hour battery life along with their comfortable and lightweight design. The only frustrating thing is that the charging case only carries one recharge but that’s less of an issue in earbuds with an 11-hour battery life all on their own. After all, that still means 22 hours of listening, which should be more than enough to ensure you don’t need to charge too often. Impressively, just three minutes of charging returns an hour of playtime, which is super useful if you’re not very organized. The Samsung Galaxy Buds+ also offer some isolation from distracting noises, which is pretty useful, and a welcome feature at this price.

Apple AirPods Pro — $200, was $250

Our Apple AirPods Pro review called them Apple’s best buds yet and we stand by that. If you’re a big Apple fan, you’re going to love their simple form even more so. They have the Apple aesthetic perfectly and this minimalist look is backed up with some great features. That includes Adaptive EQ which automatically tunes music to the shape of your ear meaning you get superior sound quality each step of the way. Alongside that is Active Noise Cancellation so you get to enjoy your music, no matter how busy your surroundings. There’s a Transparency mode, too, for when you need to switch back to listening to the world around you. The only real downside here is that battery life is only about 4-5 hours but the charging case bumps that up to 24 hours before you need a power source.

Apple has been in the laptop game for quite a while now, and its MacBook Air and MacBook Pro lineups are some of the best laptops on the market, especially since Apple has started using its own chips. Of course, you do have to pay a premium for the brand name and the product, and if you're thinking of grabbing one of these, then you may need to rely on some solid Apple deals to get you through. That's why we've scoured some of the biggest retailers online and found the best deals we could, whether you want an early-model MacBook Air M1 or the latest M3 MacBook Pro. That said, if you're not really feeling any of these MacBooks, be sure to check out these other great laptop deals instead.
Best MacBook Air (M1) deals

The Apple MacBook Air (M1) started a seismic shift for Apple being the first of its Airs to have an Apple-based processor. We took a look at the differences between the M2 and M1 and the M1 is still looking pretty great. It's also a touch nearer to affordable than anything else here. Fast yet fanless so it's silent to use, you gain an 18-hour battery life, a gorgeous looking 13.3-inch Retina display along with all the effortless style you'd expect from an Apple device. These laptops are best for students or those who want something stylish yet reasonably powerful to use on the move. Nowadays, deals are becoming a little harder to come by unless you're willing to consider a refurbished/renewed model.

iPhone owners who are on the lookout for budget-friendly true wireless earbuds deals should consider going for the second-generation Apple AirPods, especially since they're nearly down to their Black Friday price of $79 at Walmart. Instead of $129, you'll only have to pay $89 for them, for savings of $40. We're not sure how much time is remaining on this offer though -- with more than 1,000 units sold over the past 24 hours, stocks are probably already running low. If you don't want to miss out, you should complete your purchase as soon as possible.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods 2
They're not the latest model of Apple's entry-level wireless earbuds -- that distinction goes to the third-generation Apple AirPods -- but the second-generation Apple AirPods are still a good purchase today. This is especially true for iPhone owners, as they're extremely easy to set up. All you have to do is to open their charging case and hold the Apple AirPods 2 near your iPhone. However, the true wireless earbuds are also compatible with other types of smartphones, though you'll need to make the extra step of holding the button at the back of the charging case to initiate pairing.
