In true air fryer fashion, October Prime Day deals on air fryers have heated up quickly

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:39

So you've been putting off finally buying an air fryer — and then kicking yourself every time your food is taking forever in the oven. Amazon's October Prime Day is as good a time as any to find an air fryer on sale, especially if you're a connoisseur of fried snacks during football games. That'll give you several extra weekends to squeeze in new halftime recipes compared to waiting until Black Friday.

The best deals on air fryers ahead of Prime Big Deal Days Best basket air fryer deal Instant Pot Vortex Plus (4-quart) $64.99 (save $60) Get Deal Best air fryer oven deal Ninja Prestige 10-in-1 XL $229.99 (save $120) Get Deal

As Prime Big Deal Days kicked off on Oct. 7, almost all of the good air fryer deals we saw at Amazon during July's Prime Day were already live again. Instant Pot, Nuwave, and Ninja deals are all in the mix, with options from mini two-quart basket designs to XL convection oven combos for the countertop. We're tracking the best air fryer deals at Amazon through the end of October Prime Day on Oct. 8 and will be updating the list as more pop up (or sell out).

Out of all of the Ninja air fryer deals that have sprouted, this one's the biggest — both discount-wise (34% off) and capacity-wise (20 quarts). It's even $20 cheaper than its $249.99 Prime Day sale price in July.

The 10-in-1 Ninja Prestige convection oven has such robust possibilities that you might just forget how to preheat your oven. It can bake up to 20 cookies or roast a 12-pound turkey, with an optional middle rack included to air fry two different 9x9-inch trays of snacks at once.

Yes, self-emptying robot vacuums are worth it — these October Prime Day prices seal the deal

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:36

If you're wondering whether self-emptying would be worth it for your robot vacuum purchase, just consider your entire justification for wanting a robot vacuum cleaner in the first place. If it's to save time and effort on a chore you don't feel like doing, you just answered your own question. Dustbin maintenance definitely counts as part of that chore, and future you will be thankful that you opted for a self-emptying robot vacuum on sale this October Prime Day.

The best self-emptying robot vacuum deals for Prime Big Deal Days Budget pick Eufy C10 $219.99 (save $260) Get Deal Affordable mop washing station pick Roborock Qrevo $399.99 at Amazon (save $250) Get Deal Space-saving pick 3i G10+ $269.99 at Amazon (save $150) Get Deal Premium pick Dreame Aqua10 Ultra Roller $1,599.99 at Amazon (save $320) Get Deal

Self-emptying robot vacuums aren't nearly as tied to the size or budget constraints that they were when they were the fancy new thing in 2021. A ton of self-emptying docks are compact enough to work in a small apartment, and almost all of the best cheap robot vacuums under $300 or $400 are auto-emptying. During an Amazon sale like Prime Big Deal Days, the number of options in any price range grows. I'm already seeing a handful of vacuums beating their own prices from Prime Day in July.

If you do have floor space or extra cash to spare, the ultimate auto-empty dock to eye would be one that also auto-washes and dries the robot vac's mopping pads. This is a main feature on high-end robot vacuum and mop combos near $1,000, but can be found for as low as $399.99 on sale.

SEE ALSO: The most underrated robot vacuum of 2025 is also a stick vacuum

I'm tracking the best deals on self-emptying robot vacuums ahead of and throughout October Prime Day. If a self-empty dock is also a mop washing station for a robot vacuum that mops, that'll also be pointed out below.

Note: Deals with a 🔥 next to them have dropped to record-low prices.

$649.99 Save $250 Shop Now Why we like it

This Roborock Qrevo model is the updated version of the Roborock Qrevo S: Mashable readers' most purchased robot vacuum during Cyber Monday 2024. Compared to the Qrevo S, the Qrevo with no S has stronger suction power (8,000 Pa versus 6,000 Pa) and meets my minimum number for sufficient pet hair pickup for one pet. Despite being the stronger model, the Qrevo on sale for October Prime Day is $60 cheaper than the weaker model.

Other advanced features squeezed into this $399.99 package include self-washing and -drying mopping pads and small obstacle avoidance. It's easily one of the best bangs for your buck that you'll find before Black Friday.

Best space-saving self-emptying robot vacuum deal 3i G10+ $269.99 at Amazon
$449.99 Save $180 Get Deal Why we like it

I've been saying it for months: The 3i G10+ is the best robot vacuum under $500, but most people have never heard of it. This up-and-coming model rocked in more ways than one during my testing, but its approach to automatic emptying is the most relevant here. There's no self-emptying dock here at all — rather, the 3i G10+ compacts debris within the robot vacuum body itself. You're still off duty from dealing with the dust bin for around two months or so.

Did I mention the 18,000 Pa of suction power? Credit: Leah Stodart / Mashable

3i also packed a few other high-end features into this budget vacuum: namely small obstacle avoidance and, even rarer in this price range, a livestream pet camera. And it's all contained in a compact design that can be stored under a TV stand.

If you constantly find yourself losing important items like your wallet, keys, or bag, a Bluetooth tracker can help you find them. They're available for iOS and Android devices, and they're usually pretty affordable, but knocking some extra cash off of them doesn't hurt. We've found deals on several Bluetooth trackers that you can snag right now before Prime Day starts.

Here are some of the best deals on Bluetooth trackers to scoop up during Prime Day.

Apple AirTags are among some of the easiest Bluetooth trackers to use if you have Apple devices.

This pack of four means you get plenty of trackers to drop in luggage, attach to a keychain, or even put on a pet's collar. Plus, their battery lasts up to a year, so you can just forget about it once you put the tracker where you need it.

The best October Prime Day unlocked phone deals to shop now

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:30
The best October Prime Day unlocked phone deals at a glance: Best Samsung Galaxy deal Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 (256GB) $949.99 (save $150) Get Deal Best Motorola deal Motorola Razr Ultra (512GB) $1,099.99 (save $200) Get Deal Best Google Pixel deal Google Pixel 9 (128GB) $699 (save $100) Get Deal

If you're looking to upgrade your phone, but don't want to spend a fortune, Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days could be your opportunity to score one for less. Instead of coordinating a trade-in and data plan at a specific carrier, you can often find better deals on unlocked devices at Amazon — particularly during sales events. Unlocked phones aren't tied to a specific carrier, so you'll have the flexibility to switch plans and shop new phones as often as you want. Not to mention, you'll be able to use local SIM cards when traveling internationally without having to jump through hoops.

Amazon's October Prime Day event kicked off Oct. 7, and we're already seeing some unlocked phone deals worth grabbing. A few Motorola and Samsung Galaxy phones have already dropped to record-low prices (marked with a 🔥). Google Pixel, on the other hand, is starting slow with just a single solid deal. If you're looking for iPhone deals, you're better off locking in a contract with a carrier, as it's rare to find a discount on an unlocked iPhone (though we'll never say never).

We'll be keeping an eye on things and updating the list below with any new deals that pop up as we inch closer to the now-annual shopping event. For now, here are the best unlocked phone deals we could find.

Psst: If you're not sure what to do with your old phone, you can recycle it at most Best Buy stores for free.

The Z Flip7, the smaller of Samsung's latest flagship foldables, features a completely redesigned exterior. The new cover display goes edge-to-edge at 4.1 inches, making it the largest external display on a flip-style phone to date. It also packs a new 120Hz refresh rate, the ability to interact with AI features without opening the phone, and the option to use the camera to show things to the onboard AI. Mashable's reviewer writes, "If you appreciate the foldable form factor, then you'll definitely appreciate the Galaxy Z Flip 7. You can do so much cool stuff with this "AI Flip Phone." Ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, you can slash $150 off the 256GB version in blue shadow, coral red, or jet black — not bad for a phone that's only a couple of months old.

Nintendo Switch deals worth grabbing during October Prime Day

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:26

October Prime Day (also known as Prime Big Deal Days) is here, running Oct. 7 and 8. Get ready to bag a Nintendo Switch bargain. 

As with most big sales, the retailer has rolled out a batch of Prime Day deals on Amazon, and Nintendo Switch fans in particular have plenty to get excited about.

SEE ALSO: How to sign up for Amazon Prime ahead of Prime Big Deal Days

From discounts on must-play titles, old and new, to deals on consoles and accessories that can make gaming on the go a little easier, there’s already a healthy selection available. So, whether you’re hoping to top up your game library, pick up a spare controller, or even grab a Switch console itself, now’s a great time to take a look.

We’ve pulled together some of the standout Nintendo Switch deals live at Amazon right now, all ahead of October Prime Day. More discounts are sure to follow once the sale event officially gets underway, and we’ll keep updating this list as fresh offers appear.

$49.99 Save $12 Get Deal Why we like it

If you’ve been waiting for the right excuse to dive into Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut on the Nintendo Switch 2, this price cut is exactly that. Marked down to $37 from $49.99, it’s the cheapest we’ve seen it so far, making it one of the best-value third-party titles currently on the system.

It’s also a surprisingly sharp price drop, considering this new Switch 2 version of Yakuza 0 only launched in early June.

As a prequel to the long-running series, Yakuza 0 plunges you into the seedy underworld of late-’80s Japan, switching between the perspectives of Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima in a crime drama that’s as stylish as it is brutal. Already a fantastically fun game to begin with, the Director’s Cut layers in new cutscenes and expanded story details, offering fresh insight into its central characters, while combat gives you three unique fighting styles to swap between on the fly.

There’s even a new online mode, Red Light Raid, which lets you join forces with friends to take on wave-based enemy encounters. 

The only real caveat is that the physical version uses Nintendo’s Game-Key Card system, meaning you’ll be downloading rather than slotting in a full cartridge. Still, at this discount,

Taylor Swifts true or false game with Jimmy Fallon goes hilariously off the rails

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:21

If you've listened to the Strike Force Five podcast, you'll know that Jimmy Fallon has a habit of hosting incredibly confusing games where he has little to no idea of the rules.

The true or false style game he plays with Taylor Swift in The Tonight Show clip above is very much in this style, featuring a list of five rumors about Swift – one of which is apparently true – and a buzzer that nobody knows quite when to press.

The interview itself is fun, but watching the game go completely off the rails is the highlight.

"The game is not 'It's false!'" yells Fallon at one point, after Swift has hammered the buzzer. "The game is...what is the game called?"

$21.99 Save $13.30 Get Deal Why we like it

Scrabble is one of the most popular word games on the market, and for good reason. It's easy to learn but difficult to master, even if you have a large vocabulary. The classic crossword game gives you seven letter tiles randomly drawn at the beginning of the game that you use to place on the board to build words. Once the first word is down, players continue to build on those in place, using certain letter tiles that offer higher scores to see who can achieve the highest-scoring words. It's a race to see who can use up all of their tiles and score high, but also a challenge for even the most talented wordsmiths due to letter availability. Anyone can play, and getting Scrabble for less than $10 is a steal.

Save $1,200 on beastly Anker Solix F2000 portable power station for October Prime Day

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:12

SAVE $1,200: The Anker Solix F2000 portable power station is on sale at Amazon for $799, down from the list price of $1,999. That's a whopping 60% discount that beats the lowest price ever at Amazon.

$1,999 Save $1,200 Get Deal

Anker makes some of our favorite chargers like the travel-worthy Anker Nano 3-in-1 power bank. Mashable's tech editors also have a list of their favorite Anker charging accessories, but the brand has gone big in recent years and they're now a front runner in the wonderful world of portable power stations. If you've been considering snagging a powerful model, check out this October Prime Day deal.

As of Oct. 7, the Anker Solix F2000 portable power station is on sale for $799 at Amazon, marked down from the standard price of $1,999. That's a massive 60% discount that takes $1,200 off. The sale price also easily beats the previous lowest price ever at Amazon. Mashable has tested and loved the Anker Solix line of power stations, and this model is big enough to power large electronics like appliances in an emergency.

If you want big power, the Anker Solix F2000 portable power station packs in 2,048Wh with 12 ports. Recharge from four AC ports, three USB-C (all 100W), two USB-A, one 30amp, and two car sockets. That much power tends to get heavy, and the F2000 weighs almost 70 pounds. So Anker added a telescoping handle and durable wheels to the Solix F200 for easy portability.

SEE ALSO: Mashable's favorite portable power stations, reviewed

In real-life terms, 2,048Wh can keep a 350W refrigerator on for 21 hours or a 700W microwave on for 5.4 hours. Want even more power? The Solix F2000 is expandable with the Anker PowerHouse 760 expansion battery to get a grand total of 4,096Wh.

When you need to recharge the Solix F2000, you can do so via the car, standard AC power, or solar panels. It can accept up to 1,000W of solar input. Another major benefit of the Anker Solix F2000 is the top-of-the-line LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) battery which will get about 3,000 cycles before it'll only recharge to 80 percent capacity. That's over eight years of draining the battery every single day. Needless to say, it's gonna last a long time.

While it's on sale for 60% off, snag the Anker Solix F2000 portable power station. You'll be covered when the power goes out during the next fall storm, and it'll be great to pack along for summer camping.

Free Amazon deals: The holy trinity of subscription freebies is back for Prime Big Deal Days

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:07

Let's say you already have one of the best Kindles or a pair of headphones you really like. You may not be in the market for a physical item this October Prime Day, but you still have an opportunity to score a few free months of the entertainment you consume on devices.

The free Amazon deals for Prime Big Deal Days: Music deal 3 free months of Amazon Music Unlimited $0 (save $10.99/month) Get Deal Reading deal 3 free months of Kindle Unlimited $0 (save $11.99/month) Get Deal Audiobook deal x free months of Audible $0 (save $14.95/month) Get Deal

Taking advantage of these free Amazon subscriptions is one of our favorite money-saving hacks during any Prime event — here are the music, audiobook, and book deals live for Prime Big Deal Days:

You can be an obnoxious Spotify or Apple Music loyalist for the rest of the year — but when a Prime event rolls around to unlock a few free months of Amazon Music Unlimited, it'll pay off to temporarily ditch your comfort interface. The Prime Big Deal Days promo gives any new Amazon Music Unlimited subscriber three free months, regardless of whether you pay for Prime or not.

That'll save Spotify users $35.97 (which costs $11.99 per month) or Apple Music listeners $32.97 (which costs $10.99 per month) across three months. You probably won't find any holes in the Amazon Music Unlimited song library compared to those apps, and there are even high-quality audio options. One free audiobook per month is also included.

It's not exactly another Stuff Your Kindle day, but it's kind of the next best thing: Three free months of Kindle Unlimited. For the books you can't seem to find for free on Libby, Kindle Unlimited's library of over four million book titles (and some audiobooks) should keep you busy for a while. It usually costs $11.99 per month, so you'll save $35.97 over the course of those three months.

Kindle titles do disappear if/when Kindle Unlimited is cancelled, but at least you can chip away from any of your devices while you do have the subscription.

Free Amazon Audible deal Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Get 3 free months of Audible $0 at Amazon
$44.85 Save $44.85 Typically $14.95/month Get Deal

For the true audiobooks-over-reading crowd, Audible has a more robust variety of titles than Kindle Unlimited does. An Audible subscription lets you choose one audiobook per month, bestsellers and new releases included. And unlike Kindle Unlimited, your audiobooks stay on your devices even if you cancel after your free trial expires.

How much does Paramount+ cost per month?

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 11:00

With multiple tiers, it can sometimes be tough to remember just how much you're paying for Paramount+, and what exactly you're getting for your money.

SEE ALSO: How much does Netflix cost per month?

Worry no more, though: You've come to the right place. Below, we've laid out how much Paramount+ costs per month, as well as what each tier will get you, and how these prices stack up against other streaming services.

How much does Paramount+'s ad-supported tier cost?

Paramount+ has two tiers: one that comes with ads, and one that doesn't. The ad tier is called Paramount+ Essential, and it costs $7.99 per month, or $59.99 per year. That means that if you choose to go with the annual plan, you're paying closer to $5 per month, saving almost $36 per year.

With Paramount+ Essential, you get access to over 40,000 episodes and movies, along with select Showtime series. You can also stream on three devices at once, watch NFL games on CBS, and catch the UEFA Champions League.

SEE ALSO: Stephen Colbert doubles down on Trump/Epstein coverage, takes a shot at Paramount How much does Paramount+'s ad-free tier cost?

Paramount+ Premium costs $12.99 per month, or $119.99 per year. That means that if you go with the annual plan, you'll be paying closer to $10 per month, saving almost $36 per year.

Paramount+ Premium gives you everything in the Paramount+ Essential tier, without ads (apart from during live TV). You gain access to all of Showtime, as well as the ability to stream CBS live. You're also able to watch titles in 4K, UHD, Dolby Vision, or HDR10, depending on your internet capabilities, as well as download movies and TV shows.

How do Paramount+'s prices stack up against other streaming services?

With all these costs in mind, how do Paramount+'s prices compare to those of other major streaming services? Let's break it down.

At $7.99 per month, Paramount+'s ad-supported tier is the cheapest of the streaming services, along with Peacock and Netflix, whose ad-supported tiers cost the same amount per month. A Prime Video subscription by itself without an Amazon Prime membership costs $8.99 per month, while HBO Max's ad-supported tier costs $9.99 per month. Both Hulu and Disney+ are increasing their ad-supported tiers' prices to $11.99 per month come Oct. 21, becoming the most expensive of the major streamers.

Paramount+ Premium is also among the cheaper options for ad-free streaming services. Peacock's comes in at $10.99 per month, while Prime Video's is $11.98. HBO Max's ad-free tier costs $16.99, and Netflix's costs $17.99. Once again, Disney+ and Hulu are the most expensive, each coming in at $18.99 per month as of Oct. 21.

I dug up the best October Prime Day laptop deals: These models are worth buying

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 10:46
The best early October Prime Day laptop deals at a glance: Best MacBook deal Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $999 (save $200) Get Deal Best Windows laptop deal Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, 13.8-inch (Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $957 (save $442.99) Get Deal

Black Friday is the absolute best time to buy a laptop if you want a great deal. Retailers typically reserve their year-round lows for October through December to entice holiday shoppers, and to clear their shelves ahead of next-gen hardware launches in January. It's the perfect storm for PC bargain-hunting.

For its part, Amazon unofficially kicks off its Black Friday festivities well ahead of time with a Prime Big Deal Days sale in early fall. This "October Prime Day" event starts today, on Oct. 7 and runs until Oct. 8, which means the deals have already kicked off.

SEE ALSO: What is Prime Big Deal Days? Everything you need to know and what deals to expect.

There are several Apple MacBooks and Microsoft Surface Copilot+ PCs discounted as part of the Prime Big Deal Days. Amazon will probably put way more options on sale as the event rolls on and lower the prices of the already-on-sale models even further.

That said, there are two October Prime Day laptop deals that I think are worth considering now because they're already at or very close to their all-time lows.

Apple's M4 MacBook Air is a sleek speed demon: In our CPU benchmark, it outperformed 89% of the models in our laptop testing database. (Compared to the last-gen M3 model, it's 24% faster.) It doesn't look all that different from older MacBooks with M-something chips, but its upgraded 12MP Center Stage camera was a welcome upgrade to our reviewer. We think the 13-inch model is the best MacBook for students and other users who value portability, and right now, Amazon has an upgraded configuration with 512GB of storage on sale for $999 — its lowest price on record. (Doubling its 256GB base capacity means you'll probably never need an external hard drive.) No other MacBook was on sale for an all-time low at the time of writing.

The 13.8-inch Surface Laptop 7 with a Snapdragon X Elite chip is our favorite Windows laptop for most people. It's beautiful, it's about as fast as an M4 MacBook Air, and it lasts for nearly 23 hours on a single charge — that's two longer than the M4 Pro-powered MacBook Pro, the longest-lasting MacBook we've tried. (Before you buy it, just double check that its powerful ARM-based CPU is compatible with your go-to apps.) The black variant with 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage is marked down to $957 for Prime Big Deal Days, which is a 32% discount on its $1,399.99 MSRP. It very briefly fell to $918.47 in late September, but this current offer beats its Prime Day deal in July.

Apple AirPods Pro 3 vs. Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds 2

Mashable - Tue, 10/07/2025 - 10:15
Platforms and ecosystems

One key difference between these sets of earbuds relates to what device you're using them with. Both earbuds can pair with any operating system, but the AirPods Pro 3 do so with one hand tied behind their back. Meanwhile, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds 2 have full app support on either Android or iOS, allowing you to adjust equalizer settings and controls. AirPods offer similar functionality, but only when connected to an Apple device like an iPhone, iPad, or iMac.

The AirPods Pro 3 can connect to a Windows laptop or Android phone, but only as a Bluetooth receiver of audio, and that's it. You can still use on-device gestures for playback controls, turning ANC on and off, and the like, but you can't adjust any of those settings. For some, that's enough.

But you only get full functionality when pairing the AirPods to another Apple device. That means seamless switching between devices, hearing tests and hearing aid functionality, heart rate sensing, and more. On the flip side, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds 2 don't have any of those features, regardless of your device's operating system, but its app works on both mobile platforms.

One major benefit that the AirPods Pro 3 have is Apple ID connectivity. Once you pair your AirPods — any AirPods — to any Apple device, they'll automatically work on any other Apple device with your Apple ID signed in. While the Bose earbuds support Google's Fast Pair, it's just not quite the same. This is the advantage you get by controlling the entire ecosystem, as Apple does, so Apple gets the nod in this category.

Winner: Apple

Sound quality

Both sets of earbuds sound great with default settings, which is a major benefit, but the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds 2 hold one key advantage — an equalizer. Unfortunately, that EQ is only three bands. You can adjust low, mid, and high frequencies, and that's it. In my world, something is better than nothing.

Meanwhile, the AirPods Pro 3 don't have an EQ at all. iPhones have system EQs that you can set, but that's not the same as being able to fine-tune your sound to your taste. Of course, only being able to adjust three ranges of frequencies is borderline laughable from a premium sound company like Bose, so there isn't as clear-cut a winner as you might expect. 

Both sets of earbuds have a nice flat sound profile, which doesn't overly emphasize any frequencies. The AirPods skew just a tad toward a bassy sound, but it's not extreme. Meanwhile, the Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2 have a flatter sound profile that I enjoy. It's close, but I'd have to give this one to Bose.

Winner: Bose

Active noise cancellation and transparency

Active Noise cancellation is a vital part of the listening experience today. Not only does it put you in a personal bubble of silence and allow you to shut out the world around you, but it also helps your hearing health long term. Around one in eight Americans has some form of hearing loss due to listening to music at high volumes. ANC allows you to listen to your music and podcasts at a lower volume, which helps to preserve your hearing.

Both earbuds have impressive sound and ANC. Credit: Adam Doud / Mashable

Both the AirPods Pro 3 and the QC Ultra Earbuds 2 offer outstanding ANC. It really is like hitting mute on the world around you, including people talking next to you, traffic, and airplane noises. It's lovely.

As for transparency mode — that lets the world in when you need it — the AirPods allow in some extra high-end frequencies that make the outside world sound a little hissy. Meanwhile, the Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2 have outstanding sound quality with no side tone. Neither earbud handles this category badly, but I have to award this category to Bose as well.

Winner: Bose

Wind noise

I love riding electric bikes and do so as often as possible. One thing that absolutely plagues cyclists is wind noise, especially from ANC-enabled earbuds. The rush of wind traveling past the ANC microphones is incredibly hard to filter out, but both of these earbuds do it surprisingly well. Of course, before we go on, I should mention that riding a bike with ANC enabled is a terrible idea — it's important to pay attention to the outside world. That being said, I still ride my bike with ANC on, and I would not be surprised if that is my cause of death someday. Please don't be like me.

But if you are, and you've stayed alive thus far, both earbuds do a great job at eliminating wind noise. Of the two, the QC Ultra Earbuds 2 allow a slightly higher pitch of wind noise than the frequencies that squeak through on the AirPods Pro 3. Music and podcasts are still very listenable, even when biking at 20mph along a suburban street. They're both scary good, so there's no clear winner here.

Winner: Tie

Extra features

This category is an easy win for Apple, simply because their integration with iOS allows for extra features like touchless acceptance of calls (just nod your head) and Live Translate. I tested the latter in my full review of the earbuds, and I found the translation to be pretty accurate. 

The Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2 don't offer any additional features like that, and it's mostly because those are baked into operating systems. Something like this might be possible down the road, but for now, this is a clear victory for Apple.

Winner: Apple

Fit and controls

Both sets of earbuds are designed to go into your ear canal. The Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2 have full silicon eartips, while Apple's AirPods Pro 3 use a combination of foam and silicon for their tips. The latter allows for a more comfortable fit than their predecessors, the AirPods Pro 2. Meanwhile, the conical shape of the Bose QC Ultra 2 ear tips means they don't go as far into your ear canal, so it might be more comfortable for some users.

As for the controls, Apple uses a series of squeezes on the stems to adjust music playback and controls. The Bose earbuds rely on taps and swipes. The former is easy to get used to and more versatile, while the latter is simpler to learn and less likely to knock the buds loose. Grabbing the stems to pinch them can knock them loose from your ears if you're not careful.

On the flip side, the taps the Bose earbuds rely on aren't great either. Pushing on the earbud stems to make them fit better can accidentally pause your music, for example. I personally prefer the taps and swipes you can use on the Bose earbuds as opposed to the squeezes Apple calls for. This category goes to Bose, but it's mostly a personal preference.

Winner: Bose

Battery life and charging cases

In terms of battery life, both sets of earbuds are very good, but neither is great. The advertised battery life for the AirPods Pro 3 is around seven hours of listening time, while Bose says it's closer to six hours for the QuietComfort Ultra 2 buds. I flew from Chicago to Hawaii with both sets of earbuds, and neither died on me. While most people will not listen to music constantly for six to seven hours per day, it's more about the frequency of charging on a day-to-day basis. I found both of these do very well in that category. During my trip to Hawaii for a tech conference, I went the entire flight to Maui and spent the week there without plugging in either set of earbuds, but I topped both off on my way home, just in case.

Generally, I found the AirPods Pro 3 charging case to be the less bulky of the two. The Bose QC Ultra case isn't a lot bigger, but its squared-off shape felt more unwieldy. I have big sausage fingers, so I found it could be hard to get a grip on the Bose earbuds to take them out. It's a minor annoyance, but it adds up over time. The AirPods Pro 3, meanwhile, are a lot easier, likely because the design has remained largely unchanged over the years from generation to generation.

Winner: Apple

The final verdict

Overall, both sets of earbuds offer a great, premium experience — you won't be disappointed if you buy either set. They're even similar in pricing, with the Apple AirPods Pro 3 going for $249 and the Bose QC Ultra checking in at $299. Personally, I prefer the versatility and ANC of the Bose QC Ultra 2s, but there is no wrong choice here.

If you value simplicity and you're in the Apple ecosystem, the AirPods Pro 3 are the easy choice. That's especially true if you want earbuds that can do more, like Live Translate or act as hearing aids. The fact that they're $50 cheaper doesn't hurt either.

If you don't like the feel of earbuds in your ear canal, or you're an Android/PC user, go with the Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2. Multipoint connections are great for people with multiple ecosystems and can be controlled from within the app. It's less automatic than with the AirPods, but again, that's a benefit you get when a company controls the entire ecosystem from soup to nuts.

So, ultimately, which set of earbuds you should go with will likely be determined by the thing you want to pair them to. Fortunately for everyone, there are two great options here, but they're both good at different things.
