AirPods Pro 3 vs Pro 2 One Year Later… It’s Not Even Close · 9to5Mac on YouTube

AirPods Max 2 drop to $429 at Amazon — $120 off list, lowest sustained price since launch. AirPods Pro 3 sit at $199, $50 under MSRP. Both deals are live as of Saturday morning, per 9to5Toys’ reporting at 10:47 a.m. ET on October 12, 2026. Neither is tied to Prime Day, those offers expired last week.

And neither appears to be time-limited, though the outlet notes the AirPods Max 2 deal matches the same $429 price seen during Prime Big Deal Days earlier this month. That makes it one of only a few confirmed sub-$450 windows for Apple’s over-ear flagship since its 2026 release. The AirPods Pro 3 price is $20 above the Prime Day low of $179, but still $50 below the $249 U.S. List.

No Indian pricing is cited in the source. No UK or EU figures appear either. So for now, this is strictly a U.S. Retail update, no global rollout, no regional variants, no pre-order caveats. Just two active, unbranded Amazon listings with verified discounts.

And yes, they’re the real thing: ‘2026 AirPods Max 2’ and ‘AirPods Pro 3’ are named outright, not ‘next-gen’ or ‘rumored’. The story belongs in Deals. Not news, not review, not rumor, because nothing changed except the price tag. Nothing launched.

Nothing leaked. Nothing got reviewed. Just Amazon listing adjustments, tracked and reported. The next move?

Black Friday. 9to5Toys flags that $179 AirPods Pro 3 could return then. But doesn’t promise it. For now, $199 and $429 stand.
