Deal Details
Slightly better than Costco and Amazon that have the 3rd Generation Apple Airpods on sale right now for $139.99. Target will price match them (easiest way is to order then call their price match number and request the price match to Amazon). Since they give a $30 refund, you get to keep the 5% discount off the higher price and the total comes to $131.49 + tax (if applicable), which is the lowest price I've seen for them.

They charge a small restocking fee of 3 dollars when returning.

Had to return since after 2 days my ears started hurting. Switched to pros, used the smallest cushion and so far, so good.

Actually want to ask you because I'm Using the AirPods three right now and they're not bad. In terms of the pros is it really notably got much better or is it just the fact that you prefer a noise canceling? Thanks for any input

The Pros are definitely better. However the design is the in-ear buds type with silicone tip, which a lot of people including me don't like. The 3 has a size difference to the 2, which some people don't like as it makes their ears hurt after long usage and could be prone to falling out. AirPods 2 are the best deal imo at under 100 bucks if you don't need NC or wireless charging.

Oof, that's not good at all.

The AirPods 2, 3, and Pros all have very different fits. I know people that returned various AirPods because it hurt their ears. Personally our family member had to return the Pros because it hurt his ears.

Target redcard has both a credit and a debit card option. Both give 5% off all Target purchases, it's not cashback. Most Target deals on here include the red card discount.

I can answer from my perspective. Personally I like the fit of the pro in my ear. In terms audio quality, some claim the 3rd gen is better but I don't hear any difference. I used the noise cancelling during sleep because I am a light sleeper, any noises can keep me awake, so I listen to light music when I sleep wearing them.

I switched to Oneplus Buds Pro after losing my left airpods pro. Although it works great and fits my need, I still find the ANC to be better on the Airpods Pro, but not worth my money to get my left bud replaced.

If you find the 3rd gen a good fit in your ear and you don't need the ANC option, then keep your 3rd gen, they are a great pair of earbuds. The pro is better if you wear them during a jog or run since they aren't as likely to fall out of your ears with rapid movement.

If you "work" at target you get the 10% member discount. Will bring it down to 119.99, that's adding the 5% red discount

Yeah, my ears start hurting after using the Airpods 3s for about 30 mins. Airpods Pros were also not a good fit and kept popping out of my ears. The original Airpods/Airpods 2s on the other hand have been the most comfortable earbuds I have ever used. When I first tried the 3s, I thought they fit fine, but my ears started hurting due to their large size compared to the 2s. I'll be returning the 3s to Costco, unfortunately.

Did you even try replacing the white circular end point thingy of the AirPod?? The "gel insert" (that let you choose 2 other sizes for comfort)? It came with it (located inside the box) and I had the same experience so I replaced it and it felt a lot better just by downsizing from medium to small.

Perhaps upsizing or downsizing it would help you get better comfort?
