It’s a personal-audio truism: Those who try AirPods love them at first listen and never look back. These durable wireless earbuds are comfortable, have a long battery life and produce fantastic sound — and they have an army of fans. Right now, you can get a stellar second-generation pair from Walmart for $40 off.

Why is this a good deal?

Just like it’s true that AirPods are great, it’s also true that good sales are rare. This price meets the bar, though — you aren’t likely to see a better deal until a major sales event like Prime Day or Black Friday. You can also pick them up at Amazon for $99, where they have more than 535,000 reviews.

Why do I need this?

There’s a reason AirPods always sell out: They’re awesome. Sure, everyone might rave about AirPods Pro, but those cost a pretty penny. These second-generation AirPods provide comparable sound quality, are easy to use and just plain look great. What’s more, their charging case slips easily into a pocket or purse (you might even forget it’s in there).

You can expect roughly five hours of battery life on a single charge, but the case can recharge your AirPods five times before it runs out of juice. That’s nearly a full day of listening to your favorite tunes or podcasts, streaming content or listening to that hot new audiobook. Thanks to the Apple H1 chip, these pair easily with your iOS devices — just open the case and you’ll be prompted to connect them.

They’re also durable. Remember how we said you might forget they’re in your pocket? Well, we speak from experience — these AirPods survived a trip through the washing machine in a pants pocket without skipping a beat (so to speak).

What reviewers say

Fans of AirPods gush about them — over 34,000 Walmart shoppers have given these a nearly perfect review.

“These AirPods are just *kiss*! The sound quality is to die for and they go super loud so they can definitely tune someone out,” said one fan.

“I love AirPods so much! They fit comfortably in my ears and the sound quality is so good. They can get lost easily and the sound can sometimes bleed out, but other than that I have absolutely no complaints,” shared another shopper.

A generous parent said, “I bought these for my teenage daughter and she loves them! They came packaged nicely and pre-charged! They were easy to set up and are easy to use. She loves how easy it is to change songs and answer calls. The battery life is great, she uses them all the time and has never had an issue with them lasting all day on a charge.”
