Note: When I wrote this story, this deal was sold out at Walmart. I’m keeping it as a top pick for now in case it comes back in stock, but my other pick for the best noise canceling earbuds deal is the Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen).
Apple AirPods Pro 3 dropped to a low price of $179 before Prime Day, but now the price has dropped. even less before the official sale begins. According to the price tracker Camel, the Pro 3 has been spotted down to $169 on Amazon, but at the time of writing, it’s sold out. You can still find them at this low price and in stock at Walmart (making this the only non-Amazon deal to make our list), but stock is low, so if you want to pick them up before the Big Day, you won’t want to wait too long.

The Sony LinkBuds Clip gives the popular Bose Ultra Open earbuds a run for their money. In my head-to-head testing of the two pairs of earbuds, I found that while the Bose buds are generally more lean, the Sony earbuds have a more detailed sound profile, creating a much higher listening experience. They also have a long battery life, delivering nine hours per charge, where the Bose earbuds deliver seven. With both earbuds on sale, there’s only a dollar price difference between the two, but if you don’t expect to use these earbuds in a lot of loud situations, the Sony earbuds are probably the way to go.
