The January sales are a brilliant time to scout out the items that were missed off the Christmas list and can save you serious money on big ticket products that would usually set you back. 

It’s not often that we see reductions on Apple Airpods but right now on Amazon the Apple AirPods 3rd generation can be found for their lowest price ever. 

Now £157, the wireless headphones from Apple are currently enjoying a discount of £31 off in the Amazon January sale. The brand’s newest earbud offering, they’ve already amassed an impressive rating of 4.4 out of 5 with shoppers hailing them ‘a great improvement’ on older editions. 

The Apple AirPods 3rd generation was launched in October 2021 and is currently at its lowest price ever on Amazon, now £157 (was £169)

If you’ve been looking for a pair of wireless headphones to help kick start your fitness journey or ease your way back into commuting then it’s hard to ignore the hype surrounding the Apple AirPods. 

While there are cheaper alternatives out there, the AirPods continue to be a hugely popular choice with customers thanks to the glossy design, spatial audio and impressive battery life of six hours from one charge. 

An upgrade from past editions, the 3rd generation features spatial audio with dynamic head tracking that places sound all around you. Better still, it’s also water resistant so will help power you through even the sweatiest of workouts. 

Many Amazon reviewers agree that the Apple AirPods 3rd generation is a step up from the 2nd generation. 

Users have called them a ‘comfortable and a worthy upgrade’ and ‘absolutely brilliant’, raving how the ‘sound quality is great and battery life is brilliant’. 

While they lack the noise-cancelling abilities of the AirPods Pro (on sale for £187), the power and battery life is superior with up to six hours of listening time with a single charge (up to five hours with spatial audio enabled) and up to four hours of talk time.

With a contoured design and shorter stem, the Apple AirPods 3rd generation buds direct sound directly into your ear for an enhanced listening experience. 

The new earbuds give you greater control too thanks to the force sensor that lets you easily control your entertainment, answer or end calls, and more.

Despite only being launched in October 2021, the pods have received over 500 glowing five-star reviews. 

One impressed user raved: ‘The spatial sound is a game changer, makes streaming Spotify Music sound so much better, but watching iTunes Dolby Atmos films on my iPad is out of this world, the surround sound is amazing.’

Another agreed adding: ‘I found them very comfortable and they have a bigger, fuller sound when compared to my 1st gen pair.

‘Battery life is much improved and I really appreciate the soft buttons on the stalks, they give a good level of control. Yes they are relatively expensive but they are very good quality.’
