Even though the Fourth of July has come and gone, there are plenty of lingering deals today, with discounts available across all manner of things. From everyday essentials to must-have tech, you can still save on it all. A prime example is this current discount on some of the best wireless headphones around: Apple’s updated AirPods Max with USB-C.
Right now, you can get $69 off every color, slashing the price to just $480.. While that’s still a sizable price tag, there’s no denying that the quality on offer here makes the price worth it. And did we mention they come in cool colors? Best Buy is matching the same $480 price but you also get three months of Apple Music thrown in if you go this route.
These headphones’ features are essentially identical to the previous AirPods Max, albeit with a USB-C port in lieu of the previous Lightning port. The switch means that the same charging cable can be used across all of Apple’s latest hardware releases, including iPads, Macs, iPhones and their accessories.

Why this deal matters
While this isn’t quite as low as we’ve seen the AirPods Max go — that was $450 back in January — deals aren’t super common on Apple’s top-tier headphones. That means that this deal is worth taking advantage of while it’s still available.
