Where will Apple Airpods be on sale on Black Friday 2021?

There are many reasons why AirPods have been so successful and popular since they were released. Not only do they make it convenient to listen to audio on your favorite Apple devices, but they’re also great for making calls while you’re on the go. They’re especially convenient since Apple and other brands have started removing audio jacks from hardware. Another great feature of these headphones compared with many others is the very sleek-looking case, which also acts as a battery backup to extend usability by quite a bit. 

How much will AirPods be on Black Friday 2021?

Here are our estimations for what the potential price of Apple Airpods will be this Black Friday:

  • AirPods Max – $450
  • AirPods Pro – $170
  • AirPods 3 – $160
  • AirPods 2 – $99

While most people will be chasing down the latest iteration of Apple’s wireless earphones, there are plenty of reasons to seek out the older models. With the release of the latest versions, many sellers will want to make room for new stock, so finding a deal on these older models should be a breeze. Not only that, but these older models set the foundation that the newer devices have built upon, and still offer an incredible audio experience while being comfortable and coming with the same great style of charging carry case as the most recent editions do.

Whichever option is the right choice for you this Black Friday depends on your budget, what features and functionality you are interested in, and ultimately what discounts are available on each.

Apple AirPods 2 deals / 2nd gen Airpods Black Friday

The 2nd generation Airpods were released back in 2019 as a replacement for the original Airpods – the first wireless earbuds from Apple. The H1 chips in these Airpods were pioneering in terms of maintaining a reliable wireless connection and faster pairing times. They come with their own charging case which can hold a charge worth up to 24 hours of listening time. Although they have been surpassed by the AirPods 3rd generation and AirPods Pro in terms of sound quality and other features, they are the cheapest option available for an AirPods Black Friday 2021 deal.

Apple AirPods 3 deals / 3rd gen Airpods Black Friday

The AirPods 3 build upon the design of the AirPods 2nd generation, coming with the following improvements, many of them taken from the more expensive AirPods Pro: new audio drivers which improve overall audio quality, particularly bass; spatial audio support; improved connectivity with Apple devices; more comfortable ergonomic design made to better fit a variety of ear types; increased battery life of up to 6 hours in the charging case, meaning a total of up to 30 hours; and improved sweat and water resistance.

Apple AirPods Pro deals / AirPods Pro Black Friday

The AirPods Pro come with an enhanced 3D audio experience, known as spatial audio which uses Dolby Atmos to provide an immersive, epic experience, whether you’re listening to music or watching films or tv, though this is also now available with the AirPods 3rd generation. The main advantages that the AirPods Pro have over the AirPods 3 is the active noise cancellation audio feature, as well as transparency mode. The AirPods Pro do however have slightly less charge in the charging case, equating to 24 hours of listening time (the same as the AirPods 2nd generation).

The AirPods Max are the only choice available for those looking for a set of on-ear Apple headphones this Black Friday, but fortunately, they are rather good. Users will enjoy superb sound quality across the board, through trebles, mids, and bass frequencies, which is up there with the likes of Bose headphones. The AirPods Max incorporates precise physical controls, rather than digital swipe ones, which have been favored by headphone makers of late, which will please purists. The AirPods Max come with active noise cancellation and the aforementioned Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio support, as well as for 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound. The AirPods Max use 40mm drivers, and are powered by Apple H1 chips (one for each earcup) which are each composed of 10 audio cores. Alongside the sound quality, the biggest plus point of the AirPods Max is their connectivity and functionality within the Apple suite of software and hardware: you can automatically switch between iOS devices, engage hands-free Siri activation, Audio Sharing, and enjoy single-tap setup.
