If you want a pair of noise-canceling headphones that sound great, last long, pair instantly with your iPhone, and switch effortlessly between your Apple devices, you can either spend $549 on a pair of AirPods Max from 2020 or head over to Amazon for an incredible deal on the Beats Studio Pro. For a limited time, you can get a pair in any color for $180, a savings of $170, which matches the best price we’ve ever seen.
The Beats Studio Pro have a much simpler design compared to the AirPods Max, but they bring many of the same features: active noise cancellation and transparency mode, personalized spatial audio, Siri support, on-device controls, and multi-day battery life. They also have a USB-C port that delivers lossless audio—while the AirPods Max still have Lightning.
In our 4.5-star review, we called the AirPods Max “a great choice for Apple fans” and praised the sound quality and lightweight design, two of the most important things to consider when buying a pair of headphones. We also loved the lower price—but at $180, they’re a downright steal.
So if you want a pair of fantastic high-end noise-cancelling headphones without paying Apple’s exorbitant prices for a three-year-old model, go grab this deal before it’s gone.
