Labor Day weekend is here, and my big plans include skin care and way too much tech shopping, upgrading everything I need to (or don’t). I’m starting with this one right here. The AirPods Max sound huge, the noise canceling is the kind that makes you forget the world, and they’re surprisingly comfortable even after hours. I’ve tried enough headphones to know most start to pinch, but these really don’t. Right now, Walmart has it for $479.99, marked down from its usual $550 price. Not the biggest drop, but probably the biggest Apple will ever give us, so I’ll take it. I think it’s time we all hear our playlists the way Apple thinks we should.

The AirPods Max aren’t just headphones, they’re a whole damn experience. You get wide, detailed sound with Apple’s spatial audio tech, and noise canceling that can flip the switch between total isolation and transparency mode when you need it. The design feels premium but also comfortable enough for long listening sessions, which is where most over-ears fail. Its battery life runs up to 20 hours, so you can survive flights, workdays, or marathon playlists without plugging in. Our expert, Tim Gideon, rated them “Excellent” in his review, calling out their superb noise cancelation and immersive audio quality.
Labor Day deals don’t usually make Apple budge, but here we are. The AirPods Max bring studio-level sound and actual comfort, and at 13% off they’re as generous as Apple’s going to get this weekend. Honestly, it’s THE long weekend soundtrack upgrade.
