Amazon's early Prime Day pricing has slashed Apple's newest over-ear headphones to their lowest point yet. The AirPods Max 2 now sell for $499, a full $50 off the regular $549 price tag. These are the best deals we've tracked since Apple launched the refreshed model earlier this year with USB-C and the H2 chip.

The AirPods Pro 3 join the sale at $199, saving $50 off the usual $249 cost, while AirPods 4 drop to $99. Apple Watch Series 11 buyers can snag the 42mm model for $299, representing $100 in savings on the entry-level configuration. Best Buy's concurrent 4-day Apple shopping event undercuts its own pricing on most items, though Amazon maintains the edge on iPhone Air models.

Those unlocked iPhone Air units are available with $149 off across all storage tiers, bringing the 256GB model to $850 and the 512GB version to $1,050. The official MagSafe Battery pack also hits an all-time low at $59, marking 40% savings. Additional discounts include Apple Watch bands from $15 and MacBook Neo configurations starting at $590 with next-day delivery.

These aggressive markdowns signal Amazon's push to claim market share ahead of the official Prime Day shopping period, while providing Apple fans access to recent hardware at historically low entry points.
