AirPods Max are easily some of the best-performing premium Bluetooth headphones you can buy. We even reviewed them a while ago, giving them 4/5 stars. The main reason they didn’t get more stars was the price, as we think they are extremely expensive.
However, this refurbished pair can save you over $200. This pair in blue spotted at Target costs just $335.74, which is a much more acceptable price. Target says it’s “a fully functional product that may have some minor cosmetic imperfections” and comes with a six-month warranty.
A new pair of Apple AirPods Max headphones cost $549, which is a bit too expensive. At the Black Friday low, AirPods Max dropped to $429, but even that’s still pretty expensive. The only way to get these headphones at a decent price, it seems, is to get a refurbished model.
What sets these headphones apart? Our expert, Jason Cross, found that AirPods Max deliver exceptional sound quality, feature “state-of-the-art” active noise cancellation, and are built to last. These features make it a top contender in the earphone market.
AirPods are comfortable to wear for long hours and easy to control. Our review notes that Apple has eschewed touch controls (anyone who wears a hoodie rejoice!), opting instead for a digital crown like the one on the Apple Watch with a single button, both located at the top of the right earphone.
While we know it’s ideal to refurbish your technology, sometimes it’s worth opting for refurbished options to save a lot of money. These discounted AirPods Max are certified refurbished by Target, meaning they have been returned to “like new” condition. Although some minor cosmetic defects may be present, the headphones function normally.
So go ahead and get yourself the cheapest AirPods Max we’ve ever seen.
