The Apple AirPods Max is probably be the nicest pair of headphones you'd ever wear. It's undeniably engineered to the highest standards, pumps out audiophile quality sound, boasts impressive active noise cancellation, feels comfortable to wear even during long listening marathons, and looks like a veritable work of art. Unfortunately, the Apple AirPods Max will also run you a pretty penny with an MSRP of $549. That isn't the kind of money most people would be willing to throw around for a pair of headphones. Fortunately, there is a way you can score a legitimate pair of these headphones at a much lower price point.
Apple AirPods Max Headphones (Apple Certified Reconditioned) for $369.99
Today, Woot has a pair of Apple Certified Reconditioned AirPods Max headphones for $369.99, a hefty $170 (33%) price drop from the original MSRP of $549. Woot states that these Apple Certified refurbs appear practically brand new and are shipped in a custom padded brown box. They include a 90-day limited Woot warranty. Woot itself is owned by Amazon, so you can get free shipping if you're an Amazon Prime member.
With this discount, the AirPods Max is comparable in price to the Sony WH-1000XM5 and the Bose QuietComfort 45 at retail price. I've extensively used all three headphones. They are all outstanding noise cancelling headphones, but if I had to choose one of the three, I'd definitely choose the AirPods Max, primarily for the exceptional build quality and the easy iPhone and iPad integration.
Looking for a great deal on an iPad Pro? Woot is running a sale on those as well.
