Apple has officially released the AirPods 5 today, September 18th, and Amazon is already discounting the entry-level model to $124.99, marking a $5 discount from the $129 retail price.
With what Apple calls the “best-in-class open-ear active noise cancellation,” the base AirPods 5 approach feature parity with the $199 Apple AirPods Pro 3, adding adaptive audio with transparency mode, conversation awareness, and live translation with Siri AI. Apple also states the new model’s active noise cancellation is 50% better than the previous generation.
Meanwhile, paying slightly more for the AirPods 5 with Wireless Charging Case ($149) adds an extra hour of battery life and on-stem volume control, similar to the AirPods Pro 3. For fast delivery and access to exclusive discounts, we recommend signing up for an Amazon Prime 30-day free trial.
