Thursday has arrived, and with it comes a new batch of the best deals headlined by $99 off AirPods Max. That’s on top of a pair of notable M1 Mac discounts, with the latest MacBook Air at $149 off being joined by a low on its Mac mini desktop counterpart. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
AirPods Max deliver a flagship listening experience
Micro Center now offers Apple’s AirPods Max in several colors for $450. Marking the second-best price to date, today’s offer is good for $99 in savings while coming within $10 of the all-time low and delivering the most notable discount in months. Also available at Woot for $470 with faster Prime shipping, as well.
Delivering a flagship listening experience backed by Apple’s H1 chip, the new AirPods Max arrive with some of the best-in-class active noise cancellation you’ll find on the market. That’s alongside support for Hey Siri, Spatial Audio, and 20-hour playback. A premium build rounds out the equation, pairing an aluminum frame with a knit-mesh canopy and memory foam ear cushions. We found them to be a compelling, yet pricey offering in our hands-on review, though today’s deal certainly helps with the latter.
Back to school savings take $149 off M1 MacBook Air
