Discontinued in September 2023. Apple no longer sells this model.
Should you buy it now?
No. Apple no longer sells the AirPods Pro (2nd generation, Lightning case).
The AirPods Pro (2nd generation, Lightning case) came out in September 2022 at $249. Apple stopped selling it in September 2023, so it gets fewer years of software updates than a current model. If you're buying new, the AirPods Pro 3 is the model to look at instead, from $249. Buying used can still make sense, but only at a steep discount and with the battery health checked.
