From savings on big-ticket items like LG’s C4 OLED TVs to smaller ones like the Garmin Forerunner 265, there are plenty of great Memorial Day deals to shop right now – many of which we’ve gathered in our roundup of the best Memorial Day deals. Here’s another good one: the AirPods Max with USB-C are currently available for $479.99 in multiple colors at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart – their best price since January, and just $30 shy of their all-time low.

The revised AirPods Max are much like the original model from 2020, but now with new color options and a USB-C port instead of Lightning.

The AirPods Max are among our favorite wireless headphones, delivering excellent sound quality (the recent addition of lossless audio makes them even better). Their active noise cancellation comes close to matching the best from Bose and Sony, while their natural-sounding transparency mode makes it easy to stay aware of your surroundings without having to take them off to hear what’s going on.

They’re also built to impress, with a stainless steel and aluminum design that feels as high-end as it looks, and is a step up from the mostly plastic builds of Apple’s rivals. We especially recommend them for those deeply embedded in Apple’s ecosystem, as they offer one-touch pairing, automatic device switching, spatial audio with head-tracking, and built-in Find My support – a combination of features you won’t find in any other pair of headphones.
