Online and for a short time. The prices are Plus shipping, but still a great deal.

I do wonder if this is a case of Apple dumping stock before new models are released, but $100 off is still a great buy.

Disclaimer, I bought myself a pair of AirPods , but apart from being a customer I have no connection with PBTech.

Pretty big stretch of the term essential items I think :)

My Grandson (who is locked down with us) has grabbed my Panasonic noise cancelling RP-HTX90N headphones for his online learning, so me getting something I can use was important. Nice things with these is they will link to my ATV4 so I can hear the TV and not the dogs :-)

Slightly OT, but for anyone like me who is too cheap to buy Apple stuff, I just bought a pair of these Airpod-substitutes and they're great. Delivery from Amazon AU took 5 days including the weekend

Most models don't ship until mid-late September. Might as well wait until release of Watch 7 to see what's new. I'd assume Apple will be selling the Series 6 at same discount after the 7 announcement

Anyone know if they work well with teams and zoom? I bought a pair of 1000mx4s but did poor due diligence and turns out they're rubbish for teams and zoom.. audio sounds like im underwater :/

Based on current rumours the next generation Airpods Pro are more likely to land next year.

Beware if you have old clunky IT equipment at work. My work laptop is possessed by the devil and I can't use it with my Airpods Pro because when I connect them they are stuck on full volume.

AirPods don't work well with any Microsoft Windows equipment. Doesn't matter if you're running Teams, Zoom, Skype or any other conference software. You'd be better off going with a brand of bluetooth earphones that also cover the area of conferencing like Jabra or Plantronics.

I use my AirPods Pro for every Team/Zooms call, and they're fantastic, but I'm on Mac. Not sure whether they are as effective when using an OS other than macOS (it might depend on the Bluetooth receiver you have?).

Argh, wanted something multi use with ANC, I had a pair of Jabra evolve2 85's at my last job and they were amazing and can hide the boom arm but are close to $588! current company declined my request for a pair :(
