If you've had your eyes on a shiny new pair of AirPods, now's the best time to snag them at a generous discount. You can get a pair of the second generation AirPods for on-the-go, wireless listening for $100. The AirPods offer up more than 24 hours of listening time thanks to the charging case, and they have in-ear detection, meaning the devices know when they're in your ear — anything you're listening to will pause if you take one earbud out at any time, and it will start back up once they're both back in your ears.
One shopper described them as having "unparalleled convenience and sound quality."
