Apple AirPods (2nd Generation): was $159 now $79 at Amazon
The 2nd gen Apple AirPods offer over 24 hours of playback with the on-board battery and included rechargeable case combined. These buds are a respectable budget option for Apple users who want integration-friendly earbuds. Their reasonable sound quality and ability to easily connect with Apple devices puts them above earbuds at similar prices - at least, if you prefer Apple above all else. This is the lowest price for Apple AirPods all year, so their affordability doesn't get much better than this.
