Apple’s newest AirPods Pro are set to go on sale for Black Friday
The Apple AirPods are some of the best wireless headphones that you can buy right now, and with the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to find a deal on these iconic white buds.
Although Black Friday hasn't officially started yet, plenty of retailers are already running sales, including John Lewis, who currently have a reduction on the latest model of AirPods (it's the 4th generation, FYI, in case, like us, you struggle to keep up with where we're up to in Apple's numerical system of new releases.)
So, while cheap AirPods don't exist, you can often pick up the sought-after headphones at a friendlier price, if you buy during this pre-Christmas sale. And there's no need to scroll through tech sites for hours on end, as we're going to be on the hunt for the best discounts.
Praised for their noise cancelling, sweat-resistant build and design, the AirPods are handy bits of kit for running, HIIT and yoga.
There are six options: the AirPods 2nd gen (£109), the AirPods 3rd gen (£139), the AirPods Pro 2nd gen with USB-C (£229), the AirPods 4th gen with active noise cancellation (£169) and the AirPods Max (£499).
Whichever you go for, know you're buying some of the best headphones in the game, that are ideal for workouts (or working from home).
Black Friday AirPod deals 2024
We're keeping an eye on any Apple AirPod discounts during the Black Friday sales this month. The official date is Friday 29th November but preparation is key if you want to secure best deals, so we're scouting out the sales already.
Last year, some of the Black Friday deals were fairly substantial, at least by Apple standards. We saw the 2nd-gen AirPods with Wired Charging Case are at their joint-lowest price ever on Amazon. Meanwhile, the newest AirPods Pro (2nd gen) with MagSafe Case (USB-C) were discounted for the first time, with £30 off for Black Friday, so here's hoping for some good deals this year.
If you can't go another day without a new pair of AirPods, you don't need to wait until Black Friday as some retailers have already started discounting their products in the run-up to the big sale. Here are some of the best deals available now, and be sure to check back, as we'll be keeping this page updated throughout the Black Friday period.

What about Beats deals?
As Beats is owned by Apple, there are many more similarities between the models than you might expect. With Beats earbuds, you'll find options that are just as good for the gym and sound just as engaging, just at a slightly more affordable price. We're keeping track of the Beats earbud deals too, and we're happy to say there are some major discounts among our favourites.
The real bonus? They come in way more colours than AirPods yet still have all the smart Apple features like spatial audio, audio sharing with compatible headphones, hands-free “Hey Siri” access, instant pairing to all the devices in your iCloud account and "Find My" support for those of us prone to losing headphones.
