Walmart has the Apple AirPods Max 2 in every color discounted to $399.99 (normally $549) during Walmart Deals, the lowest price we’ve seen yet by a long shot. Amazon currently has the starlight color selling at this price. In our review, we praised Apple’s latest over-ear headset for its excellent sound quality, impressive noise cancellation, and premium build quality. An upgraded amplifier gives some extra oomph to the same drivers that are in the first-gen AirPods Max with USB-C, and the new processing chip supports features like live translation and conversation awareness.

Unfortunately, this incremental update missed the opportunity to solve some of the previous version’s biggest flaws. For example, they don’t have a power button, so you’ll need to use the carrying case to put them to sleep, and they lose most of their unique functionality when connected to anything other than an iOS device. The price is usually a sticking point as well, but this discount brings them in line with our favorite noise-cancelling headset, the Sony WH-1000XM6 (read our hands-on impressions).
