The best AirPods deals 2023: all the best Apple AirPods prices in one place

AirPods are incredibly popular for a reason. Apple’s wireless earbuds work near flawlessly with iPhones, iPads and Macs and don’t sound half bad either. Discounts aren’t huge, but they are increasingly available and there are even discounts on the five-star AirPods Pro Gen 2. Read on for the best deals we can find.

Current generation AirPods have Apple’s new H1 chip and hands-free Siri functionality. Aside from the very oldest AirPods 2 models – some of which will still be available, though not on my list – they all have a wireless charging case.

The latest AirPods Pro models (2nd generation) and the AirPods (3rd generation) are also compatible with Apple’s MagSafe tech.

Apple AirPods (2nd generation)

Not a major upgrade by any means, but Apple’s iconic earbuds are becoming harder to resist. They’re so fast and reliable if you already use Apple devices that it’s still hard to imagine anyone not being converted.

Apple AirPods (3rd generation) review: raising the level

Apple’s AirPods 3 are a worthy upgrade compared to older AirPods. However, unless you want to avoid the silicon tips of the AirPods Pro, you may find that the Pros aren’t that much more expensive and, of course, they also offer noise cancelling.

Apple AirPods Pro

Apple’s AirPods Pro are fantastic wireless in-ears, comfortable and incredibly intuitive making for a seamless user experience. It does feel a bit of a stretch to call them ‘Pro’ as they don’t quite match similar priced competitors for sound quality.

Apple AirPods Max

Apple’s first over-ears are big, heavy, often brilliant, and far too expensive. Apple has made some fantastic headphones, but they’re not going to pull in the proper audiophile chin-strokers, and they’re not close to being worth £200 more than Sony’s XM4s, which remain the best overall noise-cancelling headphones for our money. Sony’s cans also come with a proper case – these don’t.
