Oy vey, my friends! Just as the summer season rears its sweltering head, Amazon drops a mitzvah for all the Apple devotees out there. I’m talking about a discount on all models of the beloved AirPods earbuds that’s so steep, it would make your Bubbe blush. Seriously, such savings are usually reserved for those frenzied events like Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day. But hey, who are we to question Amazon’s calendar or its benevolent sale strategies?
Allow me to break down the details like your favorite Sunday bagel – with all the trimmings, of course!
First up in our discount parade, we have the **2nd-gen AirPods Pro**. These aren’t your Zeide’s old earbuds. They look the same on the outside, but inside, it’s a whole new ballgame. They’re like a modest schmatta that’s hiding a designer outfit underneath. With a **price tag of $200**, we’re talking about savings that could pay for a decent amount of gefilte fish. **Specifically, $49 off!** Their laundry list of features includes 2X better noise cancellation (because who doesn’t want to block out the world sometimes?), an extended battery life, sound quality that could make a virtuoso violinist weep, and a new Adaptive Transparency mode to shield your ears from those offensive noises.
Next up, we’ve got the **3rd-gen AirPods with a Lightning case**. These little tech wonders will set you back **$150**, but that’s a cool **$19 less** than the usual price. It’s like finding a forgotten twenty in your pocket – a pleasant surprise indeed! They come with a bagel-full of enhancements over the 2nd-gen model, like personalized Spatial Audio (fancy, huh?), sweat and water resistance (because summer in New York is no joke), adaptive EQ, and a battery life longer than a Yom Kippur service. The catch? No wireless charging case here. You’ll have to stick with your trusty Lightning cable.
At a thriftier **price of $99**, the **2nd-gen AirPods** offer excellent value. You save **$30**, enough for a few extra bagels and schmear. They might not have all the bells and whistles of the 3rd-gen, but they remain excellent earbuds, especially at a price point that won’t have you shvitzing.

Last but certainly not least, we have the AirPods’ more glamorous sibling, the **AirPods Max**. These are not just headphones; they’re a statement. For **$479**, you get a pair of over-ear beauties that come in all colors and feature a design so stunning, it could make a peacock jealous. Not to mention, you save **$70**. And the sound quality? It’s like hearing the sweet melodies of the Klezmer band right in your living room, with features like noise cancellation, Spatial Audio, and an Apple-designed dynamic driver delivering a broad frequency range.
So whether you’re hunting for the latest model to impress your friends at the synagogue, or just a reliable older version to accompany you on those long walks in the park, there’s never been a better time to snatch up a pair of AirPods at a bargain price. Just remember, a deal like this doesn’t come around as often as a good matzo ball soup, so act fast before it’s gone!

Thanks for this. I also noticed that Costco had the same sale on Gen 2 Pro Airpods so I got a pair for my brother for his b’day.
