I'd snap up the Apple AirPods Max at $399 (that's $150 off)

We're primed (sorry) for deal-hunting right now, as Prime Day is almost here. And I'm currently obsessed with this offer on AirPods Max, which are $399, saving $150 at Amazon. It's only $5 higher than the lowest ever price and I'm not sure they'll drop any lower than this (though it's always a possibility during sales season). This price is actually matched by Best Buy at the moment, which is offering the same deal.

Our full AirPods Max review sings the praises of these industry-leading headphones. We thought the sound was the best we've experienced, including other industry-leading cans from Sony, boss, and the ANC is on a par with the likes of the Sony XM4s. Plus, you get the usual Apple quality and attention to design detail.
