One of the Cyber Monday AirPods deals that many of us have been waiting for, the Apple AirPods Max are pretty special. We described them as the ‘most fun headphones ever’ thanks to them simplifying pretty much everything and looking good as well. Some of the best headphones around, the Apple AirPods Max use an Apple-designed dynamic driver to provide you with high-fidelity audio. Additionally, it includes Apple’s spatial audio with dynamic head tracking so you get theater-like sound that surrounds you, making you feel like you’re actually at a concert.

Computational audio combines custom acoustic design with the Apple H1 chip so you get reliable performance and connectivity and a superior experience every time. Further helping matters, the Apple AirPods Max are some of the best noise-canceling headphones with its active noise cancellation capable of effectively blocking outside noise while also allowing you to return when you need to via its great transparency mode.

With 20 hours of listening time off one charge, you’ll rarely need to remove these headphones unless you absolutely need to. That’s further helped by how comfortable they are with a knit-mesh canopy and memory foam ear cushions that provide you with a great fit that feels good on your head and around your ears.

Some of the best headphones around, particularly for owners of other Apple devices, the Apple AirPods Max are a delight to use in every way. Normally priced at $549 at Amazon, they’re down to $450 right now, saving you $99 off the usual price. This is a great deal for anyone keen to invest in high-end headphones. Buy them now before the deal ends.

Cyber Monday Milwaukee deals: up to 55% off M18 and M12 tools

Milwaukee M18 Inflator connected to a van tire.

Milwaukee is one of the most interesting of the big cordless power tool companies, simply because it just has great tools. For starters, the Milwaukee line goes above and beyond when it comes to providing quality — you'll see the brand represented among the best Cyber Monday drill deals, for example, and you'll also see them top out-of-the-way charts like our collection of the best portable tire inflators.

Simply put, Milwaukee gets the job done — regardless of the task at hand. At the same time, figuring out which line of their Cyber Monday power tool deals is best for you (the M12 or the M18) can be a bit challenging. While it doesn't sound too complex, one powers less powerful 12V tools while the other handles stronger 18V tools, if you've ever forgotten where your keys are you might also easily forget which Milwaukee line you're building up a battery collection for. So, take a deep breath before assessing these Cyber Monday deals, checking over what each one is, and maybe even hopping out to your garage to double-check what you have.
Our top pick: Milwaukee M18 Tire Inflator (Tool only) — $150 $310 52% off

All of Apple's smartwatch models are what we would consider to be a great buy, including the Apple Watch Ultra 2. It probably won't come as a huge shock, but Amazon has discounted the Apple Watch Ultra 2 as part of a Cyber Monday deal. It means you can buy the 49mm GPS + Cellular model for $80 off right now. That brings it down to $719 from $799. While that isn't a cheap deal by any means, it's rare to get such a discount on one of Apple's best products. We can't say how long it'll stay at this price. It seems likely the deal will end soon. So, let's take a quick look at what it offers before you decide to buy. If you're looking for the best Cyber Monday smartwatch deals, this is certainly one of the mainstays.

Why you should shop this Apple Watch Ultra 2 deal at Amazon
We tagged the Apple Watch Ultra 2 as the best premium smartwatch for the iPhone in our list of the best smartwatches, and at first glance, it's obvious why.

Meanwhile, the interface is very fast and fluid because it's powered by Apple's new S9 chipset.
