AMAZON has slashed the price of Apple’s top AirPods by a generous £50.

And there’s a special bonus too – if you buy the AirPods as a gift for someone else.

The AirPods Pro are Apple’s top-end wireless earbuds.

Normally they’d cost you £239, but Amazon has knocked the price down to just £189.

That’s a seriously good deal on an exceptional pair of wireless headphones.

Apple AirPods Pro review – should you buy them?

Apple AirPods Pro review – By Sean Keach, November 2019

The Apple AirPods were easy – to set up, to use and to love.

And the AirPods Pro don’t lose any of that magic. They just tack on a bunch of handy extras (and £90).

Noise-cancelling is the big sell for AirPods Pro, and it works well. The effect is impressive and it’s simple to activate.

Of course, not everyone needs noise-cancelling. If you live the quiet life somewhere lovely and peaceful, then you can save the £90 and spend it on a new pair of hiking boots.

As with all of Apple’s Pro gadgets, they’re just not for everyone. Hence the name.

Similarly, some real audiophiles will require proper over-ear headphones – and the AirPods Pro can never live up to real cans when it comes to sound quality.

But for their size, price and target buyer, they’re largely perfect.

These are the “Pro” headphones that many can afford, and almost all can enjoy. They’re a way to relatively cheaply step up your audio game.

The noise-cancelling alone is well worth the extra £90 if you lead a busy and loud lifestyle. The boosted sound just sweetens the deal.

I have zero complaints about the AirPods so far, except for the fact that I’m probably wearing them so much that people around me think I hate them.

But I don’t care! I can’t hear their complaints thanks to that sweet, sweet noise-cancellation. Ahh.
