Apple’s second-gen AirPods are on sale for $100

Now might be the right time to snap up a pair of Apple’s second-gen AirPods if you’ve been waiting for a good deal. The earphones are on sale on Amazon, where they have dropped from $159 to $100 for Memorial Day. That’s 37 percent below the regular price and one of the best deals we’ve seen for this model. The current price is about $10 more than the record low, however.

Buy Apple Airpods (2nd-gen) at Amazon – $99

We gave the second-gen AirPods a score of 84 in our review after finding that the fit won’t be suitable for all ears, while sound quality is similar to the first model. There’s no active noise cancellation either. However, the earbuds do have a lot going for them. They’ll be especially useful for folks who are deep into the Apple ecosystem, as the H1 chip allows them to swiftly pair the earphones with an iPhone, iPad or Mac and switch between devices in a snap. You’ll be able to listen for around five hours before needing to recharge, while the charging case provides approximately 24 hours of listening time overall.

Meanwhile, the most recent third-gen AirPods are also on sale. They’re currently $150, which is $29 off the standard price. We felt that Apple had improved nearly every aspect this time around and gave this model a score of 88. While there’s still no ANC, the third-gen AirPods have significantly better sound quality, a more comfortable fit and a longer battery life (around seven hours in our testing).

AT&T will unveil its new streaming service (and maybe ruin HBO Now) this fall

Apple and Disney have already hosted splashy media events showcasing the new streaming services they each plan to launch later this year to host original content and hopefully siphon some viewership away from Netflix. Next up is AT&T, which is planning a similar unveiling and demonstration this fall — in September or October — for its HBO-centric WarnerMedia streaming service.

AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson promised analysts as much during the company’s earnings call today, adding that the demo of its upcoming paid video streaming service would include a “detailed look at the product.” That was perhaps a subtle jab at Apple, which got dinged after its unveiling of Apple TV+ last month for its lack of detail like when the offering will launch and the scarcity of footage and teasers related to the shows coming to the service.

Stephenson, meanwhile, also said today the company’s showcase in the fall will include “the breadth of new and existing content, so just stay tuned for that. We’re making significant investments here, and we think our customers are going to love this product.” No surprise, he added that HBO will be at the heart of the WarnerMedia offering, for which pricing is still being worked out.

AT&T already faces something of an uphill battle in terms of getting as many people as possible familiar with the WarnerMedia brand. Asking consumers to shell out money for yet another streaming video service, when they’re already paying for everything from Netflix to Hulu and potentially new products like Apple TV+ and Disney+, may be a tough ask.

Adding to the possible confusion — WarnerMedia is not actually a single product, but three. Its trio of paid tiers will include a movies-only option for people who want to go the least expensive route, with a second slightly more expensive tier featuring original content and movies and another tier including Warner Bros. content.

It also remains to be seen what will become of the company’s crown jewel, HBO. WarnerMedia no doubt has decided that lumping it into the new streaming offering may be its best chance at winning over customers in love with HBO’s brand, but HBO has also lost a number of key executives since AT&T’s acquisition of Time Warner — executives like HBO CEO Richard Plepler, who championed the creative culture at the network that led to its string of successes, many of which (like Game of Thrones) turned into buzzy pop culture sensations.

The parent company, meanwhile, will be leaning on HBO to dial its content production volume way up in a bid to better compete with Netflix, though that’s certainly a culture shift at a place where curation and quality have always been the watchwords, as opposed to things like volume and quantity. Stephenson is also on record as hinting that maybe a GoT-like 60-minute episode isn’t even the best way to go in a mobile-first world anymore — that maybe short, bite-sized, 20-minute episodes are more amenable to customers these days.

All of that may be true. But what’s also true is that success in any endeavor, even when you have a familiar and beloved brand, is never certain. We’ll see not only which of the streaming giants has the best content to offer, but which ones give customers the best possible user experience in exchange for forking over money for yet another monthly subscription.
