It's the most wonderful time for your ears: Best Buy has revived one of the best AirPods deals of 2024 right before the holidays.

As of Dec. 23, the Apple AirPods Max with Lightning charging are on sale for $379.99 as part of a 48-Hour Flash Sale there. That's a match of their all-time low from Cyber Monday (and a 30% discount on their usual sticker price of $549), which Best Buy has only offered one other time since as a limited-time weekend doorbuster in mid-December.

This current deal applies to all five colorways, but only three of them were still in stock at the time of writing: silver, space gray, and green. On the plus side, those three variants were available for same-day pickup and next-day delivery in certain locations; you can enter your zip code on the AirPods Max's product page to see if they're on tap near you before you head to checkout.

Apple's original over-ear headphones from 2020 sound great, look cool, offer "excellent" noice cancellation, and have a decently long battery life. That's according to former Mashable Tech Reporter Brenda Stolyar, who gave them a 4.2/5 in her review. She docked a few points for their hit-or-miss comfort, their weird missing power button, and (perhaps obviously) their costliness.

In 2024, we think you can get even better headphones for a way better price. But if you're an Apple loyalist, Best Buy's $170 discount definitely helps their case.

Like the two other times this deal has popped up, it only applies to the older Lightning version of the AirPods Max, not the newer USB-C variant. (Those are now $499.99 at Amazon and Best Buy.) But as I've mentioned before, anyone with an iPhone 15 or newer can purchase Apple's USB-C to Lightning Adapter for under $30.
