Apple's flagship over-the-ear headphones, the AirPods Max, have a fun, futuristic design and come in bright hues of blue, orange, and purple. Beyond looks, they're pretty good headphones, too (and very popular). With active noise cancellation and seamless iOS connectivity, they sound good and are user-friendly. Our main issue with the AirPods Max comes down to price.

For $549, they're one of the more expensive pairs of noise-cancelling headphones on the market, topping both Bose and Sony in price, which is why we're always looking for deals. Luckily, as of April 15, you can find the Apple AirPods Max on sale for just $479.99 at Best Buy. That's a savings of $69.01, for 13% off.

A few weeks ago we spotted the Apple AirPods Max on sale at Best Buy for $479.99. Amazon finally matched the price today. This deal comes at a good time: a recent upgrade just provided the AirPods Max with lossless audio, preventing delay in audio when wearing the headphones.

Shop this deal on Apple AirPods Max at Amazon and save $69.01.
