But what if that's way out of your budget? Well then, you should shoot for the discounted Apple AirPods Max (1st Gen) at Amazon for 399.99 (was 499.99) .

Today's best Apple AirPods deal Apple AirPods Max: was 499.99 now 399.99 at Amazon If it's a pair of over-ear AirPods that you're looking for, then your only choice is theAirPods Max. They produce fantastic sound and boast excellent noise cancellation, but at 499.99, they're out of a lot of our budgets. It's a whole different ball game with this generous 100 discount, though. View Deal In our Apple AirPods Max review , we rated the headphones four out of five stars and called them the perfect headphones for Apple devotees. They've got a lot going for them. We could mention the detailed, expansive audio, the USB-C lossless audio, or the gorgeous design, but it's actually the noise cancellation that makes the AirPods Max excel most.

Our reviewer said that "during a commute, most of the rumble from the train was blocked out, and with our music playing, we couldn't hear it at all." That's high praise indeed and exactly what you'd expect from a 499.99 (RRP) pair of headphones.

Aside from a wide and well-balanced soundstage with immersive spatial audio
to make you feel like youre at a concert, the AirPods Max boast a wide range of features. These include comfy memory foam earcups and a lightweight mesh headband that moulds to your head.
