Apple AirPods Max 2 are 22 percent off right now at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. I\u2019ve tested more than 100 wireless earbuds and headphones, and for Apple loyalists, these are the over-ear headphones to get, especially if you bounce between your iPhone and MacBook often. The fact that they\u2019re $120 off the sticker price makes them a much more appealing buy and brings their price closer to options from Sony and Bose.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t specifically an Amazon Prime Day sale; it\u2019s available at multiple retailers.

Apple AirPods Max 2<\/a> launched earlier this year, and while they look unchanged from the outside, they have a few key upgrades when you look a little closer.<\/p>\n

The biggest is improved active noise-canceling (ANC). AirPods Max were already some of the best ANC headphones you could get\u2014this second version improves on a winning formula with 1.5 times stronger ANC. Having tested this out in the real world, I can confirm they are better at blocking out sound of all kinds.<\/p>\n

Other improvements are more software-focused, tied to Apple\u2019s H2 chip inside (upgraded from the H1 in the original AirPods Max). AirPods Max 2 now have many of the features carried over from the latest AirPods Pro, including live translation, adaptive audio, and conversation awareness.<\/p>\n
