I can only compare Bose QC 1 gen and AirPods pro 2 as I own both. Fitment is very personal, some ppl like QC but for me AirPods are more comfortable. Bose sounds better for sure, but not by much. My friend who is very musical prefers Bose. Big problem with bose is connectivity. It is usually ok, but when it is not ok it's such a PITA. AirPods have much better case, connect faster, more stable, the microphone for calls is MUCH better. The way AirPods work with multiple devices in night and day, granted all my devices are apple. Noise cancellation is slightly better in Bose, but depends on what environment you're in. For biking for example Bose is really unusable because of the wind noise. All in all, I use airpods almost exclusively in my day to day life because of comfort and connectivity. I guess the current gen is very similar.

If you want AppleCare, it's still better to get Costco for $249 with AppleCare included

If order from Walmart, plus members get free 1 day shipping.
Choose payment method pay later with PayPal (4 interest free payments) and get 20% cash back from PayPal. Make sure you activate the PayPal offer under rewards.


You can also have a rewards credit card for payment through Paypal and get additional cash back from the credit card company and do a link from something like Top Cashback into the Walmart site for more cash back.

Community Reviews

AirPods Pro 3 stand out as a strong upgrade for Apple users, with excellent noise cancellation, a snug foam tip fit, fast device switching, and much better call quality than older AirPods. The comments also highlight solid isolation for noisy places, plus useful extras like translation and heart rate sensing. On the deal side, Walmart and Best Buy can stack with PayPal or Amex offers, and Apple has a $50 gift card promo. The main cautions are that fit can be hit or miss, the sound focused crowd may prefer cheaper alternatives, and counterfeit risk matters on marketplace listings. A good pick if you want the Apple ecosystem perks.

anyone think the price will go down more or is this probably it
I think the price will go down to $199, if not for BF, for CM based on the fact Apple effectively selling for $199 after you include the $50 GC.

But I went ahead and bought a pair from Target w/ my Red Card. Since Target said it will price match its BF prices on items bought ahead of BF there's no reason for me to wait. Generally on AirPods during the holidays if one store has a sale so do the others.

The headline here is obviously that you wear air pods in the shower. I mean...WHAT???
Is that the headline? They're IP57 rated. That 7 means they can survive immersion in water up to 1M for 30 minutes, but they can't withstand 10 minutes in the shower? 😂

I wasn't suggesting that you can't or that they will break. Just kind of hilarious that you would Smilie

I mean, sometimes you finish a workout but want to rock out for a little longer before getting back to life. Don't knock it till you try it. NBD. 👍

i think the other poster is surprised you wear them in the shower, not about the IP rating

i mean what? you can't go for 10 minutes without them in your ear? do you not clean the outer part of your ears when you shower? i imagine they'd get in the way

If using PayPal pay later, small hit on credit scores.

We can all go without a lot of things, but isn't the point of technology to make your life better?

Since we're already on the topic, it's worth mentioning that the AP3's handle showers like a champ, actually. My last buds were also IP57 rated but the flimsy rubber tips didn't seal your ears like these do, and once water got past them they stopped working until they were dry. The AP3's are built to handle downpours, showers or otherwise.

No problems cleaning my ears. I don't use my ears to walk or pick up and handle dirty things, so they don't need to be scrubbed like my feet and hands. A light once over with my shampoo suds does the job. What a weird digression.

How do these compare with Bose - QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen)
There's a YouTuber who goes by the name 'Picky' (I believe) that did a terrific comprehensive review of both. Highly recommend that you view it as I think it will help answer this for you. I'm short, I recall he concluded that these two earbud headphones are finally neck-and-neck across the board. AirP Pro 3 nearly on par with Bose in noise cancelling, and Bose QC ultra (2 gen) phone quality finally on par with some of the best.

I ended up getting the QC ultra gen2 earbuds, as an upgrade from my QC 2 earbuds (not ultra) mainly because I got tired of people complaining how awful my voice quality was, and so far very happy with them (I have a Pixel).

And am debating getting my wife the AirP pro 3 for her iphone...
We got her the QC 2 a couple years ago because of Bose's superior Noise canceling and her OG AirPod Pros had TERRIBLE battery life... But she likes the pink magenta color of the new QC ultra gen2, so she's still debating lol. But leaning towards the AirPods pro3

Nope, you just accept the 20% cashback offer logging into Paypal, and during the option to pay later in 4 payments you can select a credit card or bank account to do the pay later option. Assuming the Amex thing works you may get to double dip but I'm not sure if Amex is option to payback via Paypal.
Works! woot

First, thanks for the info that BB takes AirPods as trade ins. I had no idea. I checked into that and my old AirPods Pro 1s are worth $30. Sold! Like you said, that's something especially when they are gathering dust.

Second, yeah, everyone has their strategies and I'm certainly taking a gamble betting these will go down after I buy them. But worse case, $20 amortized over the expected 3 year life span is a 1.5 gallons of gas a year. I'd just rather have them in-hand now than scramble online during BF if inventory is short.

Yeah the ONLY reason why Im gonna get it from best buy is due to the trade in otherwise I would get it from target, target price matches even a few weeks later they dont care but with best buy they are gonna give me 45 bucks which is a good deal but still want to see if it drops in price some more..220 is still kind of steep at least for me..I also have the old airpods pro 1, which is funny that they offer LESS for the pros than the regular airpods which offered me 45 go figure lol

I got them for this price through BestBuy and was able to use the PayPal 20% back offer. I can confirm it worked. So the price after credit will be $171.51 for brand new AirPod 3. Yeah you can get open box ones but that's like wearing someone else's used underwear.
