Costco has had this price a few times. It is possible that it could drop to 189 at Black Friday.

The big thing here is that this includes 2 years of AppleCare. For some people that's really important. For others, its not important at all.

I do think this will be $169.99 without AppleCare all over on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Apple AirPods Pro 3 at $199 stands out mainly because it includes 2 years of AppleCare plus, which adds real value if replacement coverage matters. The same bundle has appeared at Costco before, and the included coverage can make a replacement or even a full unit swap much easier. The main tradeoff is price timing, since a lower Black Friday price around $189, or even a cheaper no AppleCare sale elsewhere, is possible. A solid option if the bundled protection is worth paying for now.

  • The included two years of AppleCare+ can make replacements easier for AirPods Pro 3 owners.

  • The deal can work out to a lower effective price when stacking Costco-related Uber Eats gift card discounts.

  • AppleCare+ coverage can reduce the hassle of getting replacements when battery health falls below the 80% threshold.

  • Costco has reportedly replaced an entire AirPods set after a lost-earbud report.

    R3DTR1X

  • The $199 offer may be less attractive if AppleCare One coverage can be extended during a lower $169 sale elsewhere.

    AquaSwing937AMiller31

  • AppleCare+ replacements reportedly may be refurbished units rather than brand-new AirPods.

    jaymez619

  • A refurbished replacement reportedly failed about 18 months after a recall or warranty replacement.

    jaymez619

  • AppleCare+ value may be limited because battery health for AirPods is not measurable, which can lead to a replacement process that feels like a fixed-cost exchange.

I was one of the people who originally thought it was not necessarily a big deal to have the AppleCare until I realized it is an easy way to get them replaced each year for free. That is the best way to get value out of it and definitely makes this a solid deal.But as others have mentioned, this is a common deal through Costco.

Wait if you have the apple care with this product, will they essentially give you a brand new pair of airpods for free if you lose it or break it?

Better than paying $250 without AppleCare. If you don't immediately need them, I'd wait for aBlack Friday deal. Personally, I would never buy AirPods Pros for more than $150ish. I use/prefer my $60 Shokz OpenMove more than my AirPod Pros 2.

When you get them replaced, do they give new ones or refurbished? I had mine replaced under recall/warranty and they gave me refurbished, which failed about 18 months later.

Simple: Applecare+ covers replacement if the battery health is below 80%. However, there is no way to measure airpods battery health, and this includes the charging case, so they just give you a new one for $30.

Reminder that AppleCare is $40 for two years, so you'd need to buy for $160 to match this.

Or just buy it now. If they drop the price, they will price match and you will not have to fight them.

True story: my brother went into Costco and told them he lost one of the AirPods and they replaced the whole set. I was there and I was shocked. I won't buy anywhere else now

$199.99 with 2 years of AppleCare+ is actually pretty solid. Costco coming through for once, tempted to grab a pair.
