The Apple AirPods Max are premium headphones in every way which means they typically command a premium price tag. Not today though, as you can currently buy the Apple AirPods Max at Amazon for $449.99 (was $549).

The AirPods Max rarely hit prices as low as this with the premium cans often hovering around the full price of $549. We saw an all-time low back in August 2022 of $429 but those days seem to be long gone with $449.99 generally the lowest you’ll ever see them. This is the kind of price you’d see around Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day rather than a humble spring day in May.

Saving 18% at Amazon is nothing to be sniffed at here with these being some of the best wireless headphones for Apple fans in particular thanks to being so easy to connect to.
