While it's true that the AirPods 3 wireless earbuds are no longer the newest model in Apple's iconic lineup, they still have a lot to offer if you can find a pair at the right price. If you're on the hunt for an AirPods deal and aren't too bothered about buying the last-gen version, Woot is offering AirPods 3 for just $125 right now -- a price that's lower than Adorama's $149 deal.
Woot says that this deal is going to run for a little more than a week so keep that in mind, but it could end even sooner if stocks run dry. We don't know how many pairs of AirPods Woot has to offer so delay your order at your own peril.

Unlike Apple's AirPods 4 offering which comes in two versions (one with ANC, one without) things are less complicated here. Each pair of AirPods 3 comes with the same audio features, while this model also offers a MagSafe wireless charging case rather than the standard Lightning version. It's the MagSafe version you'll get with this deal, so that gives these particular AirPods 3 a leg-up over the entry-level, non-ANC AirPods 4 model.
As for the earbuds themselves, AirPods 3 feature an adaptive EQ feature that automatically tunes audio to better suit your own ears while the popular instant device pairing and switching capabilities are present and correct, too.
In terms of battery life, these AirPods 3 earbuds can run for up to 6 hours between charges while the MagSafe charging case adds an extra 24 hours to that for a total of 30 hours before you need to reach for a charger.
