At the top of Apple's headphones line-up sits the AirPods Max, a pair of excellent noise-cancelling, wireless over-ears that deliver superb sound to fully justify their lofty price. We gave them the full five stars in our review. And right now, you can make a decent saving on that price.
At Amazon, the AirPods Max are available for $489 in Sky Blue or Space Gray finishes. That's $60 less than their launch price, and $33 less than the deal that was offered over Prime Day.
AirPods Max deal
If you take a moment to read our AirPods Max review, you'll know that Apple's over-ear headphones are a very decent buy – despite costing significantly more than the popular rivals from Sony, Bose and Sennheiser.
Sonically speaking, these are hands-down the best wireless noise-cancellers you can buy, and they marry that superb sound quality with excellent noise-cancelling, the uniquely cinematic spatial audio experience, and the kind of build quality you'd expect from Apple.
These will naturally appeal more to an iOS user, and disappointingly they don't support Apple Music's Hi-Res Lossless Audio tier, but if that doesn't phase you then you won't find yourself disappointed.
There’s no denying that they cost a lot more than typical products in this class – even with this $60 discount – but, if sound quality is king, there’s equally no denying that they’re worth it.
