If you know where to look, you can often score deals on Apple’s ever‑expanding AirPods lineup. Both the AirPods Max and AirPods 4 (with and without ANC) now consistently receive discounts, as do the newer AirPods Pro 3. While recent shopping events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday delivered some of the steepest discounts we’ve seen, good deals are still available on every model.
Below, we’ve rounded up the best deals currently available on each set of AirPods, including both iterations of the AirPods 4, the third‑gen AirPods Pro, and the AirPods Max.

The AirPods 4 were introduced at the end of 2024 in two variations: a standard model ($129) and a noise‑cancelling model ($179). Both offer a more comfortable design, improved audio, and Apple’s Voice Isolation for clearer calls. The ANC version adds effective noise cancellation, a transparency mode, wireless charging, and a case with a built‑in speaker for Find My tracking.

AirPods Pro 3 – $249 MSRP

The third‑gen AirPods Pro, launched at Apple’s “Awe Dropping” event in September, add a built‑in heart‑rate sensor that syncs with the iPhone Fitness app, live translation, enhanced ANC, improved sound quality, and a fifth swappable ear tip (including an XXS size). They also feature an IP57 rating.
Despite being a recent release, the AirPods Pro 3 have seen frequent discounts, with prices as low as $199 in the past. At the time of this update they are available for $229 at Amazon and Walmart.
The best AirPods Max deals
AirPods Max – $549 MSRP

The AirPods Max are large, over‑ear headphones built from aluminum, steel, and mesh fabric. They deliver excellent noise cancellation, spatial audio, and balanced sound, though bass response may lag behind some competitors. In late 2024 Apple refreshed the model with USB‑C charging and new color options. Prices have previously dropped to $399, and they are currently on sale for $449 at Amazon and Walmart.
