Bargain, oh wait, nope.

 

[Spungoflex]

Man, what a deal!

 

[nvmls]

$549 to $548.99 - "all-time low price"

 

[Greenmeenie]

Still a rip off. Sorry. These should be $249... $299 at the most.

 

[tomtad]

Still far too expensive. These are £549 in the UK, more than half a grand!

I'd adjust the pricing across the board, all the AirPods are overpriced especially now bluetooth headphones are more commonplace.

AirPods - £99 (currently £159)
AirPods Pro - £199 (currently £249)
AirPods Max - £349 (currently £549)

For some comparison:
HomePod mini - £99 (current price)

Wait lol, Apple sells a headphone thats 500 dollars? Where have I been

 

[Alfredo_Delgado]

These are the thousand dollar monitor stand of headphones. Yes, I own a pair.

Potential sales tax benefits as well. This is basically $100 off what you’d pay from Apple.

 

[warpdrive]

I just don't see selling well at their price point, no matter how "good" they are. Homepod Max was sold largely on its vaunted sound quality and there were few biters, even after the price was dropped.

Lots of things bug me with this product. The dumb case and no proper off button, battery is too hard to change, doesn't fold compactly for travelling.

For general use, most people are pretty happy with their good Airpods Pro

 

[jcshas]

Even with the discount, I’m leery spending over $500 (USD) on headphones. I can’t help but wonder if AirPods Max will end up being discontinued like the (2018) HomePod.

 

[AlexESP]

For everyone comparing HomePod and AirPods Max, the second one was launched when the decision to discontinue the first one was surely taken, so I’m fairly confident Apple set the right price.

 

[Osxguy]

Its just spending $500 on a device that will be obsolete

I agree totally. Apple products are incredibly overpriced, but while they are selling at high prices, as a business, why would you drop the prices?

I usually just buy the latest Apple products 2 years later, when the prices are more reasonable

Currently rocking an iPhone 7 Plus and Series 4 AW.

Based on what ? I mean... come on, it's not like you own them or something...

 

[J.J. Sefton]

*rubs eyes*

...dang, for a second I thought I saw $159.00 (puts credit card away) ?

 

[ouimetnick]

Currently using AirPods Max. Bought an open box from Best Buy. I love them, but the $499 I paid (open box) is still too much, and they are going back tomorrow. Hopefully these get some actual discounts over the summer or in November for Black Friday. $449 would be fine.

The build quality, materials, and technology is better than the $350 Bose and Sony (sound is subjective), so a $100 premium to cover the better materials, ease of use and apple tax isn’t unreasonable, remember AirPods and AirPods Pro are more expensive than their competitors anyway.

 

[xalea]

I'm a musician and music producer, worked with some big names at Warner. My best mixing headphones didn't cost as much as these Apple Max ones. Give me a break..

How will it be obsolete? They are headphones....

I have to admit, every time something new is announced, you always have people that say 'this price is going to kill Apple, I will just wait for it to go lower.' Makes me chuckle as Apple's prices rarely decrease enough to be significant to me. This $30 decrease, is this what people are waiting for to make it worthwhile? I would rather have enjoyed my pair for the last 6 months as I did.

But you actually bring up a good example, Apple watches DO get discounted significantly. The phones not so much. HomePod yes (and we see how that ended lol). I actually picked up an Apple Watch series 6 for my wife at a 25% discount. So okay sir, you might be right about waiting 2 years and lowering costs. You have more discipline than I do!

$549 to $548.99 - "all-time low price"

I saw this happen in a Circuit City way back a long time ago. A lady ripped off the “sale” price tag, then went off on the poor floor guy “What kind of sale price is 2 cents off?!” Too funny, though I did feel bad for the powerless floor guy who was stuck listening to her rant.

 

[zubikov]

Here's a prediction. Apple will throw in some headphones for "free" for a back to school promo this summer. People will be able to purchase the Max for like $100 more. Shortly thereafter, many Maxes will end up on eBay, that will end up selling for around $350 - $400 NIB. That seems to be the sweetspot where the masses actually start dishing out money for higher end wireless cans.

 

[PBG4 Dude]

How will it be obsolete? They are headphones....

Batteries will die long before the other components fail. My dumb, wired headphones are 20 years old and still work fantastically. I don’t think the Apple Pro Max headphones will last anywhere near as long.

 

[Lestdog]

These headphones are so grossly overpriced. Sony XM4s offer a way better value.

 

[nph]

I can't help but be amazed that they stop selling their HomePods which were fantastic quality, but expensive, at $299 and didn't sell enough. Then they launch headphones for almost twice the price. Granted they sound great but this is even more overpriced than the HomePods.
But maybe i am off and there is a huge market for high priced headphones. Although i remember when Bose came out with their best headphones and they were $299 and considered way too expensive although a lot of business travellers got them. I guess we will see in 6-12 months if they were a success or not.
