SAVE $99.01: As of June 13, the AirPods Max in space gray are on sale at Amazon and Best Buy for just $449.99. That's a discount of 18%.

Absolutely no one should buy AirPods Max at full price. We're not saying they're bad headphones — in fact, we're big fans of their impressive noise cancellation and sleek design. It's not solely hype that put these headphones all over your FYP, but at $549, they're a good $150 pricier than other noise-canceling options on the market.

That's why if you are going to buy them, you should wait for a good sale. And as of June 13, that sale is here, as the AirPods Max are available for just $449.99 at Amazon and Best Buy. At Best Buy, the headphones are on sale as a deal of the day, meaning that this markdown only lasts till 1 a.m. ET on June 14 — and we wouldn't be surprised if Amazon followed suit with their pricing.

You'll also be limited to just the space gray colorway for this sale. All the other colorways are available for $480, which is a sale price you'll frequently see for these headphones and not one we would recommend springing for if you're okay to wait.

Whether you've had your eye on the AirPods Max for a while or want to surprise Dad with something big this year, this deal is one worth jumping on. Plus, with Prime eligibility and in-store pickup at Best Buy, you can get them in no time at all.
