Costco has the same price and it's valid through 4/24. I would much rather buy from Costco to avoid counterfeits from Amazon and Costco has a better return policy if there are any issues with the AirPods.
From my understanding this doesn't guarantee you will get authentic ones. From previous posts they say that they grab from the same pile
I have both and use them for different things. AirPods Pro definitely have better audio quality and I love the noise cancellation, but they're surprisingly less stable in my ears when I'm exercising or being active because the silicone tips slide in my ear canals and also make the body stick out of my ear more than the 3rd Gen. Also, the silicone tips can be uncomfortable when laying down and can make my ears itch after long periods of use. So I use the 3rd Gen while exercising, doing yard work, laying down, or if the Pros cause my ears to itch. The Pros are great when I'm at work, at my computer, on a plane, or otherwise just sitting and listening.

TLDR: It may come down to your ear shape and which fits you better, but assuming the fit and comfort is equal, the Pros are better and worth the little bit extra.

Let me clarify here.

I believe that there are less then 10 sellers allowed to sell apple products on Amazon. Those sellers are all established companies.
On this listing there are no 3rd party sellers doing FBA so there's nowhere Amazon can mix it from.

I just got this from previous deal. The right ear has a weird static noise that known issues for these. Their are couple way to fix the issue, some said the firmware update will fix but mine is up-to-date out the box. Didn't have time to try other. But im thinking to return it. That's weird.

Bring it to a apple store. I had that issue also.

I think they are about the same now exact how they fit in your ear. The move from v2 to v3 made it much more equal

I had the same debate but ended up with 3 because it was a newer model. Airpod 3 came out in October 2021 while Pro came out in October 2019. I also wanted 3 because of longer battery life. Hope this helps!

There's an instacart coupon that gives $50 off $150+
1) Go to: https://sameday.costco.com/
2) Add airpods
3) Enter code: EASTER22


Note: If your local Costco doesn't have them you'll have to substitute to a Pro or cancel (my local store didn't have 3rd gens in stock). Also some people have been able to get an additional 30% off using CashApp and applying the 30% instacart boost on their CashApp debit card... caution.. if you don't already have CashApp and a CashApp debit card it may not be worth the trouble... multiple reports of people getting their instacart accounts auto-disabled on checkout when using a newly made CashApp debit card

I have a pair of QC35s. Yes, they sound better and have great noise canceling, however, I can't just slip them into my pocket when needed. When I'm traveling, the QC35 with case takes up ALOT of space.
