The AirPods, which normally cost $170, are 17 percent off, making them just $140. Apple overhauled the design of the standard AirPods with this model, which was introduced in 2021. The third-generation AirPods have a shorter stem to more closely resemble the AirPods Pro (but without the ear tips), a contoured design for added comfort and are rated for sweat and water resistance.

Previous non-Pro AirPods models weren't sweat- or water-resistant, but the third generation has an IPX4 rating, which should be fine for workouts. They also have an improved auto-pause method over previous versions, using an accelerometer and a skin-detecting sensor so they can feel better when they've been removed from your ear.
The third-generation AirPods are powered by Apple's H1 chip, which enables quick one-touch pairing and always-on Siri. They offer adaptive EQ, spatial audio, and dynamic head tracking (but not active noise cancellation, that's just for the AirPods Pro) and produce much better sound compared to previous models. In Engadget's review, they earned a score of 88 for their comfort-focused design, audio quality, and battery life.
Battery life is noticeably longer on the third-generation AirPods. Apple says these AirPods get about 6 hours of battery life on a charge, but in our testing, they lasted over an hour longer. With the charging case, you can get about 30 hours of battery life in total. If you need to recharge them while you're away, you only need to place them in the case for five minutes to get another hour of play. If you don't care about features like active noise cancellation, the third-generation AirPods are a great bet, especially for their low price.
