Apple AirPods Max Headphones (UBS-C model) $529 at Amazon

Memorial Day weekend is finally here, and Amazon’s celebrating with major deals across just about every product category. If you've been holding out for Prime Day to snag new headphones, you might not have to wait. Amazon's got some good deals happening right now.

As of May 24, you can get the Apple AirPods Max wireless over-ear headphones for $479.99. They usually go for $549, so that's a 13% discount, saving you $69.01. Now, it's true they were a tad cheaper back in January at $449.99, but hey, saving nearly $70 is still a pretty good deal if you can't wait for Prime Day.

The AirPods Max have an Apple H1 chip and software for lossless audio, “pro-level” active noise cancellation (they remove up to two times more background noise), and spatial audio. With Transparency Mode, you can tune in and out of the world around you. But these headphones aren't just about the specs. They also have an undeniable cool factor that you just don't get with other over-ears.

“Wirelessly, when the signal switches to lossy, everything still sounds crisp, but that sense of openness is gone, especially on live recordings,” Mashable’s Senior Editor Stan Schroeder says of the new lossless audio feature. “Switching back to lossless, and the complex interplay between the instruments is easier to digest as each individual instrument has more space to breathe.”
