Noise-canceling earbuds are perfect for commuting, working out, or just walking around town while you block out the world around you. And you don’t have to break the bank to get your hands on a pair — Amazon has $37 off EarFun’s Air Pro 3 earbuds, one of our favorite budget-friendly pairs of 2024, so you can you can buy them for just $46 when you enter the discount code EAP3CNETAmazon’s Prime Day sale ends on Wednesday, though, so we recommend ordering quickly if you don’t want to miss out on this discount.

This story is part of Amazon Prime DayCNET’s guide to everything you need to know and how to find the best deals.

The EarFun Air Pro 3s are our top pick for affordable wireless earbuds. They come equipped with the latest Qualcomm QCC3071 chipset, which gives them surprisingly robust power and volume for such a budget-oriented earbud. They have great highs and mids, especially in terms of clarity, though their bass does suffer a bit, which isn’t too surprising considering the price. Call audio is great, as the earbuds come with a total of six microphones to work with, and the person on the other end can hear you reasonably well, even in slightly noisy environments.

The myriad of microphones also help with ambient noise cancellation, which isn’t quite the same as higher-end active noise cancellation, but it’s more than adequate as long as you’re not dealing with sounds that exceed 43 decibels, like a jackhammer or drill. Thankfully, the EarFun Air Pro 3 does a good job of sealing off your ear, so you get some passive noise cancellation that way as well. Of course, if you still want to hear what’s going on around you, there’s a transparency mode, which we don’t often see on more budget-friendly earbuds, so we’re happy to see that.

In terms of battery life, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll get around nine hours without ENC and around seven hours with ENC enabled, plus an additional 30 hours with the wireless case on. We’re also pleased to see that it has an IPX5 rating, so it can handle the elements and the sweat if you want to go for a run or workout.

Overall, while the EarFun Air Pro 3 can’t compete with the top favorites in the game, they’re an excellent set of mid-range earbuds, especially with this Prime Day deal that brings them down to under $60.
