'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.
Walmart is selling Apple AirPods at prices cheaper than during Black Friday
Black Friday and Cyber Monday have clocked out but Walmart seems to be working overtime. While supplies last, Walmart has various Apple AirPods models discounted, including the original AirPods, and the Pros. Throughout the years, we've tested all of Apple's AirPods models and have found each one to carry excellent audio quality and functionality that makes going wireless a no-brainer. In time for the holidays, these wireless earbuds make for exceptional gifts and can now be bought at prices cheaper than during Black Friday.
ZDNet's Jason Cipriani said it best, "The AirPods took wireless earbuds and made them something I actually want to use and made it easy to do so." And for a limited time, you can snag a pair of the following models starting at just $99.99.
- Apple AirPods (2nd Generation) for $99.99 ($60 off)
- Apple AirPods (3rd Generation) for $139.99 ($40 off) (Out of stock)
- Apple AirPods Pro for $179.99 ($70 off)
- Apple AIrPods Max for $479.99 ($70 off)
Whichever model you decide to purchase, Walmart promises a delivery date as soon as this Sunday (December 12), though, the timing will vary based on your zip code and availability.
