Apple introduces refurbished AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C case at lower price
Key Points:
- Apple offers refurbished AirPods Pro 2 with a USB-C case for $209 in the U.S.
- Refurbished models undergo full testing, cleaning, and inspection.
- New AirPods Pro 2 are cheaper on Amazon for $189.99.
Apple has officially started offering refurbished second-generation AirPods Pro, now featuring a USB-C charging case, through its online store in the U.S. These refurbished earbuds are priced at $209, which is $40 less than the brand-new price of $249.
The AirPods Pro 2 was updated in September 2023, when Apple introduced the new USB-C case. Along with the charging case upgrade, the AirPods Pro 2 also received improved dust resistance (IP54 rating) and support for lossless audio when paired with Apple’s Vision Pro headset.
Apple assures that all refurbished products undergo rigorous testing to ensure full functionality. These products also go through an extensive cleaning and inspection process before being resold.
However, it’s worth noting that Amazon currently offers brand-new AirPods Pro 2 with the same USB-C charging case for $189.99, making it a more budget-friendly option than Apple’s refurbished deal.
