Apple’s third-generation AirPods have hit their lowest price ever, dropping to just $94 at Walmart in an early Black Friday deal—a significant discount from their usual $169 price tag. This means that for those eyeing an upgrade or wanting to try Apple’s wireless earbuds, now might be the perfect opportunity.

Released in 2021, these AirPods marked a major design shift. They feature a shorter stem similar to the AirPods Pro but without silicone ear tips, making them a good choice for users who prefer the feel of open earbuds. They come equipped with Apple’s H1 chip for a fast, smooth pairing process and hands-free Siri access. Additionally, the third-generation AirPods are IPX4-rated, meaning they’re resistant to water and sweat, which makes them reliable for workouts or light rain exposure.

A key draw is the sound quality, which is improved over previous models thanks to Adaptive EQ, which automatically tunes audio based on how it fits in your ear. They also offer spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, a feature that provides a more immersive listening experience. While these AirPods lack the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) found in the Pro versions, their overall sound profile and features have been well-received, especially at this price point.

Battery life is another highlight: users can enjoy up to six hours of listening on a single charge, and with the charging case, the total listening time extends to around 30 hours. Plus, a quick five-minute charge in the case provides roughly an hour of playback, which can come in handy for last-minute boosts.

This Walmart deal may not last long, so those interested should act quickly before stock runs out.
