I can’t believe Apple’s best-ever headphones are already this cheap

Amazing Deal A close up of AirPods Pro 3 in a case

It’s rare to see deals on new Apple products, so seeing the AirPods Pro 3 at just $219 already is surprising, given they were only launched in September.

The reason that I’m so keen on telling you about this deal is that this is a price that probably won’t be repeated before Christmas, so if you’re looking for a gift for the Apple user in your life, these are a great choice.

I’ve been using them for months now, and the combination of sound quality and new ear tips (that actually stay in my ears when running) makes them an easy recommendation for me.

I was a bit disappointed when I heard that the improvements in sound quality weren’t from the internal speakers, but just a new bud design and better noise isolation from the memory foam tips.

But, for me, those improved ear tips on the AirPods Pro 3 are game changing. The sound quality was already good, but as I have large, expansive ear holes (I know, don’t get too excited) the AirPods Pro 2 silicon tips would just slide out.

Now they’re as rock solid as most of my other running headphones, and the sound quality is far superior.

A great choice, not the cheapest

Look, the AirPods Pro 3 cost is nothing to be sniffed at – yes, they’re down from $249 to $219, but that’s still over $200 for a set of headphones, which isn’t low cost by any means.

These are an option for a ‘big present’ – i.e. wanting to make someone you love very happy on Christmas day.

Trust me – they’ll be pleased with Apple’s latest earbuds, so if you’re on the fence about buying, I strongly suggest you go for it.

Sonos owners are finally getting a less frustrating app, but the rollout comes with a catch
Improved navigation, speaker sorting, and new iOS volume controls are arriving gradually and must initially be enabled manually
Furniture, Electronics, Speaker

The Sonos app is getting a substantial usability overhaul. Familiar bottom tabs should make it easier to move around, while customizable speaker ordering could take some friction out of managing a multiroom system.

Sonos community manager ShaunFromSonos announced that the release may take up to two weeks to reach everyone. Once it arrives, users must switch on Enable Improved Navigation in the app’s settings to unlock the new layout and sorting tools.
