The whole point of shopping between Black Friday and Cyber Monday is to get the best deal possible. Hundreds of thousands of items are currently on sale, but only some of them are marked down to their lowest price ever. If you want the best-possible bang for your buck, we’ve collected the best gear we could find that’s never been less expensive. In some cases, the gadgets below are being discounted for the first time ever.

AirPods Pro 2 $154 (Was $249)

You don’t need golden ears to hear that the new Apple AirPods (2nd generation) add sonic shine.

The AirPods Pro 2 are the best all-around true wireless earbuds based on our testing, and they’re marked down nearly 40 percent for Cyber Monday. The earbuds consistently sound great, and their active noise cancellation is above average, making them one of the best travel accessories. These are gummy-tipped earbuds, but we’ve had no problem with them staying in our ears, even when moving around. Apple has continually updated the AirPods Pro 2 with firmware that introduces new features. Most recently, the AirPods Pro 2 can be used as hearing aids, amplifying frequencies your ears struggle with after walking you through a short hearing test. The earbuds can intelligently let certain sounds—voices, for example—break through when active noise cancellation is enabled, so you can have a conversation without popping them out of your ears.

If you receive a text message, you can respond with a “yes” or “no” answer by nodding or moving your head side to side, respectively. The AirPods Pro 2 also supports Siri, so you can active the smart assistant with your voice and use it to place calls, send messages, read notifications, or get general information. The AirPods Pro 2 can last up to six hours per charge, and their battery case can recharge them four times. That battery case has a built-in speaker, which can emit a chime when you try to locate it using the “Find My” app on your Apple devices. If you’ve never had a pair of true wireless earbuds or want to upgrade from a pair several years old, don’t miss this deal (and we’ve collected even more of the best Bluetooth headphone/earbud deals, if you want to explore other models).

Why Trust Popular Science

Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly intimidating array of devices on the market right now.

Our writers and editors have combined decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties—from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond—but when we’re reviewing devices outside of our immediate wheelhouses, we do our best to seek out trustworthy voices and opinions to help guide people to the very best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.
