Apple AirPods Max Headphones (Lightning) — Worth Considering
Amazon deal price: $400; street price: $470
What we like: A good pair of wireless Bluetooth headphones worth considering if you’re willing to pay more for the absolute best active noise cancellation and a more-luxurious design. Sleek and distinctive look. Pairs with Apple products effortlessly. Excellent call quality. Replaceable battery.
Other things to know: This version still uses the Lightning connection port, not the newer USB-C version. Too hefty for all-day wear. Supports Dolby Atmos and Apple spatial audio, but not Apple Music’s lossless audio. 3.5 mm cable not included. ANC isn’t adjustable, so it can cause eardrum suck. Case does not protect headband or keep debris out of earcups. Available in most colors.

Amazon deal price: $73; street price: $100
What we like: Our top Bluetooth tracker pick for iPhone users. Also recommended in multiple Wirecutter gift guides. Impressively accurate in pinpointing an item’s precise location. Leverages Apple’s extensive Find My network. Can swap in a new battery as needed. Water-resistant.
Other things to know: Doesn’t have any way to ring your phone. Cannot attach to your stuff directly. Cannot be shared with another person. Sales on four-packs typically offer the best price per tracker but we’ve seen better deals in recent months.
