Apple quietly released the all-new AirPods Max 2 last month — and you can already score a rare $40 discount at Amazon

Apple quietly released the luxurious AirPods Max 2 just last month, and I’ve just spotted a rare discount on the headphones at Amazon. The retailer is slashing $40 off Apple’s AirPods Max 2, bringing the price down from $549 to $509.

The AirPods Max 2 were introduced in March during a press announcement and started shipping in early April. The AirPods Max 2 are a successor to the original AirPods Max, which were released in 2020 at the same starting price of $549.

The biggest upgrade to the Max 2 is Apple’s H2 chip, which delivers Adaptive Audio, Personalized Volume, and improved Voice Isolation, resulting in superior sound. You also get up to 1.5x more Active Noise Cancellation, an ultra comfortable over-the-ear design, and up to 20 hours of battery life.

With all those premium features that you get with the AirPods Max 2 comes a hefty price tag, which is why today’s $40 discount is a welcome treat. Discounts on new Apple devices are extremely rare, so you should snap up this limited-time offer from Amazon while you can.
