Apple AirPods Max 2 and Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike discounted in Best Buy July sale
The AirPods Max 2 are available for $449.99 at Amazon and Best Buy, marking a $100 reduction from the standard retail price.
Apple’s AirPods Max 2 headphones have been discounted by $100 to $449.99 at Amazon and Best Buy, as part of the retailer’s “Black Friday in July” promotion. This price reduction represents the second time the product has been lowered in cost, following a $150 discount during Amazon Prime Day. The sale also includes a first-time discount on Logitech’s G Pro X2 Superstrike haptic gaming mouse.
The July sale aligns with Best Buy’s typical mid-year promotion schedule, providing consumers with deals despite Amazon’s Prime Day occurring earlier than usual this year. The promotion runs for the week, offering a window for shoppers who may have missed the earlier Prime Day offers. The AirPods Max 2 are available at the $449.99 price point in every colour.
Internal improvements in the Max 2 may make it worthwhile for owners of the original model, particularly those with the Lightning-equipped version. The device features USB-C connectivity, a built-in amp, and the H2 wireless chip, which supports live translation, adaptive audio, and conversation awareness. The device is described as a “great sequel, but not an ambitious one,” with minimal design changes from the original iteration.
The AirPods Max 2’s sound quality is noted as edging out competitors due to its built-in amp. While the specific discount amount for the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike is not detailed in the source material, its inclusion marks the first time the haptic gaming mouse has been discounted.
It is unclear if the $449.99 price is available at all Best Buy and Amazon locations or only online. Vox Media may earn a commission if readers purchase items via links from The Verge.
