Amazon has the AirPods in stock now and free delivery estimates an arrival date of this weekend for most places in the United States. This is the model that comes with the wired Charging Case.
AirPods Max
Next, Amazon has four colors of the AirPods Max at $449.00, down from $549.00. This is one of the best prices we've tracked in 2022, coming in just $10 away from the year's best price.
Like the other model, you won't need a coupon code to get this discount as Amazon has automatically applied it on the product page. The AirPods Max are in stock and should arrive sometime this week if you order a pair today.
