Multiple outlets report steep discounts on Apple AirPods headphones during the lead-up to or during Amazon Prime Day 2026. The most prominent offer is for the AirPods Max 2, which several sources say has dropped to a record-low of $399 at Amazon, down from its typical $549 price. Coverage notes the discount applies across multiple colors, though availability may narrow as Prime Day progresses; at least one report specifies the $399 price is limited to the Midnight color as other colors sell out.

Other AirPods models also see price cuts. MacRumors and AppleInsider describe an Amazon deal on AirPods 4 at $99 (down from $129) and an AirPods 4 model with Active Noise Cancellation at $148.99 (down from $179), indicating these are among the better prices seen in some time. The Verge and other deal roundups frame the discounts as part of broader summer sales aligned with Prime Day.

Some retailers require an Amazon Prime membership to access discounts, and at least one source mentions delivery timing differences for Prime members.
