We’ve seen some killer Black Friday AirPods deals so far this year, with prices starting at $69. Yet even as the AirPods 4, the AirPods 4 with ANC, and the AirPods Pro 2 and 3 hit record prices, one Apple audio product has stubbornly refused to drop to its lowest-ever price. We’re talking, of course, about the stylish Apple AirPods Max headphones, which have been available for $429.99 at Best Buy all week.
That’s a great price on these Apple noise-cancellers, but not the lowest-ever price. On rare occasions in the past, we’ve seen these headphones drop to $399.99. And if you held out on buying these headphones with the hope that they would get even cheaper, then we have good news: As of this writing, the Apple AirPods Max are finally back down to their record price at both Amazon and Best Buy. This is the newest version with USB-C charging instead of the Lightning port. (Our apologies to anyone who bought them at the $429 price.)

Mashable has reviewed these headphones positively in the past, but their $549 price tag has held us back from naming them the best headphones. They’ve been conspicuously absent from our guides to the best wireless headphones and noise-cancelling headphones. We’ve seen newer flagship headphones from Bose, Sony, and Bowers & Wilkins land this year, and so it’s been hard to recommend Apple’s older headphones. However, at this price, that calculus changes.

There’s also no denying that these are some of the most stylish headphones ever designed. They’re a constant sight on the streets of New York, where people where them as fashion accessories as much as headphones.
