Forget Pricey Earbuds, These Denon Wireless Buds Just Plummeted To $15.99

If you want to spend a premium on a set of high-end earbuds, the market is flush with options, not the least of which includes Apple's AirPods Pro 3 and Bose's QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) that we reviewed. If you're looking for something far cheaper, though, there's a massive discount on a set of Denon earbuds that is worth checking out.

A hot deal on Woot has the Denon AH-C630W True Wireless earbuds discounted all the way down to $15.99 (84% off, save $83.96). Even compared to street pricing (Amazon has these same earbuds listed at $49.95, or $46.06 for the white colorway), Woot's discount is hyper-aggressive, bringing the price down to impulse-buy territory. But are these earbuds worth it?

I haven't sampled these and so I can't speak to the audio quality, but for $15.99, it's certainly worth taking a flier if you're looking for a cheap set of earbuds from a name brand.

The caveat at this price point is that you're missing out on features normally reserved for higher-end models, such as active noise cancellation (ANC). However, on paper, these earbuds at least cover the basics with IPX4 water and sweat resistance, the ability to connect up to 8 Bluetooth devices, a built-in microphone, up to 4.5 hours of rated battery life or 18 hours if factoring in the included charging case, and a reasonably stylish design.

Note that Amazon owns Woot, which is a dedicated deals site. Also note that despite the ultra-low price, these are brand new earbuds, not refurbished.

If you're not looking to go cheap and are willing to spend more to get more, here's a heads up that Apple's AirPods Pro 3 are back down to $199.99 at Amazon (20% off, save $49.01).

There's obviously a big pricing gap between $15.99 and $199.99 (by $184, to be precise, plus applicable tax), but for those with the means and desire to spend bigger on a set of premium earbuds, the AirPods Pro 3 is Apple's newest flagship with a handful of upgrades over previous generation models. Chief among them is what Apple claims is a 2x improvement to ANC versus the AirPods Pro 2, and 4x better ANC compared to the original AirPods Pro.

Apple also touts a redesign based on over 10,000 ear scans with more than 100,000 hours of user research for a better fit, along with improved dust and water resistance (IP57 versus IP54) and longer battery life at 8 hours (up from 6 hours).
