One of the most-discussed subjects among many of my friends and colleagues are headphones: specifically, what provides the best sound, the best noise cancellation, and are the most comfortable to wear. If you’re part of the Apple ecosystem, then one of those featured in our roundup of best AirPods to buy are the AirPods Max, which are now on sale for $479.99 at Best Buy, Amazon (where the purple model isn’t discounted), and Walmart, a savings of $70 from their usual $549.99. This isn’t the best deal we’ve seen, but it’s still a bigger discount that you’ll find directly through Apple.
The AirPods Max have been lauded for their great sound, effective noise cancellation, and spatial audio, providing an immersive experience for listeners. They also look really good, and fit comfortably. Although, they are a bit weighty, which can be an issue for some, especially if you’re wearing them throughout the day. However, that may not be an issue for you. Or, perhaps you can just overlook it considering their fantastic audio quality. Read our review.
