AMAZON has dropped the price of not one, not two, but THREE models of its popular AirPods earbuds.

The AirPods 2, AirPods 3 and AirPods Pro have all had their pricetags slashed on the retailer’s U.K. website.

You can bag the buds for up to £60 off their recommended retail price in a rare deal that’s unlikely to come around again soon.

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.

You can also get cash off of the cheaper but still well-worth-your money AirPod 2 and AirPods 3.

The second-generation bud are down to £109 from £119, while the third-gen are now £159, down from £169.

That means you can save £10 each on the earbuds. But that’s not all…

There’s also a special promotion running that cuts the price of Amazon gift-wrapping by 50 per cent.

You just need to enter the code GIFTWRAP50 at checkout to claim the offer.

The AirPods 2 and AirPods 3 share many of the features of the AirPods Pro, such as water and sweat resistance, access to Siri and Apple’s powerful H1 chip.

However, the pricier Pros feature a smaller design with swappable silicon eartips and active noise cancellation.

Here’s an excerpt from our product review, published in 2019.

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.
