AirPods Max 2 Hit New Amazon Low at $509.99

The modest cut signals rare early discounts on Apple's latest over-ear headphones.

Overview

  • Amazon’s listing, flagged Monday by Mashable and 9to5Toys, dropped the AirPods Max 2 to $509.99 from $549, a roughly 7% savings.
  • 9to5Toys calls it a new Amazon all-time low and places it alongside smaller Mother’s Day cuts on AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods 4.
  • The second-generation model keeps the original design but adds Apple’s H2 chip and a new amplifier for cleaner sound and stronger bass.
  • H2-driven features include stronger noise canceling, adaptive audio, conversation awareness, live translation, voice isolation, personalized volume, loud sound reduction, and a shorter 'Siri' wake word.
  • Availability and pricing can differ by color on Amazon, with 9to5Toys highlighting Midnight and Starlight as the finishes at the sale price.
