It’s been a massive week for Apple with the launch of their 2025 range of mobile phones and new Apple Watches and even new AirPods Pro 3. But what Apple doesn’t do is hold a Keynote at their HQ for price rises.
Thanks to one observant EFTM reader we’re aware that the most premium of all the Apple headphones has had a little price bump, well, not little – $100 extra.
AirPods Max were $899 last week, and for many months before that too. But look today on the Apple Website and they’re $999.
