I thought exactly the same thing. Then I found a special for 125.00 and took
the chance. I absolutely love the air pods even with the short battery life
and the unreliability of the switching feature. They will charge in around
fifteen minutes, I can wear all day with no discomfort. the sound is fine in
my opinion. I have no hearing in my right ear so do not like noise
cancelling buds. So they fit my needs so well, I bought a second pair so
when the battery goes on one, I can switch to the other pair.

I wouldn't pay $140 for a set of wireless earbuds if I only got about
5 hours of playtime from a single charge. This is just my opinion.

I'm not sure if this link will work for you, but here's a link to the
Airpods from Best Buy. This doesn't include the wireless charging case but
rather just the wired charging case. The price is $140.

It should be pretty easy to make sure you're getting the right product.
The
price should be around $150, and it should just say Airpods and not Airpod
Pros. If you see Airpod Pros, a price of around $250, and features like
noise cancellation, transparency mode, and silicon ear tips then your
looking at the Airpod Pros and not the Airpods.

This isn't easy to do as each country has their own website for apple so
you are
best to go to your countries apple site, Then check out the links on the
page and
there should be at the moment a link to airpods.
Then go to the link for AirPods,
Not the AirPod Pro's
Then find the buy AirPods link and click on that.
The url below might help but it's for the the New Zealand site and see if
it
redirects you to your countries site.
https://www.apple.com/shop/select-airpods
good luck.

Hello guys,
thank you for your help.
Please, would anyone be so kind and provide the link for the standard
series 2
earpods so that I know I will get the model I need.
Unfortunately, there is no Apple store where I live, so I cannot try
them,
I just
have to order online and hope I will get what I want.
Is it OK to buy the airpods on Amazon or should I buy from Apple store?
Speaking of Amazon, I know this question might be off-topic, but I am
just
wondering if there is any accessible Amazon price tracker available , or
how do
you watch deals on Amazon?
Thank you for your help again.
