Apple's impressive AirPods Pro 2 are on sale for $190 thanks to Black Friday

Apple AirPods Pro 2 wireless earbuds.

Apple's AirPods Pro 2 are some of the best wireless earbuds around, but they don't often go on sale. Luckily, thanks to Black Friday, you can grab a pair for the low price of $190 at Target while supplies last

In our AirPods Pro 2 review, we gave them five stars for their detailed, clear sound, excellent noise-canceling, battery life, and impressive iOS integration. If you need some buds, give these a look.

In our AirPods Pro 2 review, we gave them five stars and complimented their clear, detailed sound, excellent noise-cancelling and good battery life. If you're in the market for a new pair of wireless earbuds and are invested in Apple's ecosystem, the AirPods Pro 2 are definitely worth a look.

On the design front, the 2nd Gen buds largely mirror their predecessor's design save for the tweaked positioning of the vents and microphones. Apple did, though, build touch controls into the stems which allow you to swipe up or down to change the volume. Apple also added a pair of XS eartips in the box so you now have four to choose from to optimize fit.

Battery life got a bump from 24 hours to 30 but, more importantly, so did noise-cancelling courtesy of a new "low distortion" driver and H2 chip. The original model launched with a charging case that boasted Apple's Lightning connector, but Apple announced a pair with USB-C to complement its iPhone 15 range. And we're pleased to report this version is also included in the Target deal.

Not only is the ANC now among the very best in its class and a rival to the Sony WF-1000XM4 and Bose QuietComfort II, but so too is sound quality. All in all, the new AirPods Pro 2 bring multiple improvements to Apple's flagship earbuds and they are great performers at full price. Thanks to this Target deal, they're an even more attractive proposition.
