Q: Are the sweat proof? Can I work out with these and not damage them?
A: They are not sweat proof but if you take off the mesh covers and put them in a laundry bag and wash them by themselves they’ll be good as new. Let them dry for 24 hours in a cool, dry place. Then wipe out the inner part of the headphones themselves with an alcohol wipe.
Q: Do these have a microphone for answering calls?
A: yeah, but the mic is horrible people say it sounds muffled when I try talking with the headphones on.
Q: Is volume good for seniors hard of hearing
A: Very much so.
Q: Can I add a words to it on the top ??
A: On tops is kinda of a plush netting to keep your head in place all comfy instead of just bare plastic on your head, if it sticks than yea stick it but the sides of the headphones have better space for customization
Q: Can this be wired and used on an airplane during a flight?
A: They do make an adapter to do this. Check YouTube.
A: undefined
Q: how’s the bass with these headphones?
A: These have a very balanced profile, so you can hear and feel the bass, but not as much as Sony's XM series which are more focused on bassy sounds. You can change some settings in the EQ, but this too is somewhat limited on the Apple ecosystem.

These AirPods Max are the real deal. They deliver top-tier sound with noise cancellation that feels like stepping into another world. I’ve tried a lot of headphones, and nothing comes close to how clean, powerful, and immersive these feel. A lot of people say they’re heavy honestly, you barely feel them. The weight disappears the second you put them on. Comfort is on point for long sessions, whether I’m working, traveling, or at the gym. One of my favorite features is actually the lack of a power button. They go into low-power mode automatically, and because they never fully turn off, I can always track them through my phone. If they ever get misplaced or someone tries to walk off with them, I’ll know. That alone gives me huge peace of mind. The magnetic ear cushions are a major win. Easy to clean, easy to swap. For the gym, I added rubber sweat-proof covers and that solved the moisture issue completely. I also have AppleCare on mine, so if anything ever goes wrong, I’m covered. Between the build quality and the support, these feel like a long-term investment. Even the case grew on me. I didn’t love it at first, but now I appreciate it because it protects the headphones perfectly and keeps them looking brand-new. Battery life is another strong point. These last forever—easily through multiple workouts, commutes, and daily use without worrying about charging. Overall, these are the best all-around headphones I’ve ever owned. Worth every dollar.

I held off on buying the AirPods Max for a long time because of the price, but after using them for a few weeks… I finally get the hype. These things feel like someone engineered silence and comfort into a piece of art. The sound is insanely clean. It’s not just “good headphones” quality—everything feels layered, like the music suddenly has depth I wasn’t hearing before. The spatial audio effect makes certain songs feel almost live, which is wild the first time you experience it. The noise cancellation is honestly the best part for me. It’s not a “muffle,” it’s a disappear. My apartment suddenly feels quieter, flights are 10x more peaceful, and even busy coffee shops feel manageable. The transparency mode is freakishly natural too—switching between the two feels like shifting reality. Comfort-wise, they’re way better than I expected. The knit headband and the cushions make long listening sessions easy, and they don’t clamp your head like some other high-end options do. Battery life holds up great, the controls are simple, and the build quality feels premium in a way that’s actually noticeable. They’re definitely an investment, but if you care about sound, comfort, or just blocking out the world… they’re worth every penny.

I've been using Apple’s newest headphones for a few weeks now, and I have to say, they truly redefine what premium audio products can offer. Sound Quality: The sound is nothing short of spectacular. The bass is deep and rich without overwhelming the mids and highs, which are incredibly clear and crisp. Whether you’re listening to your favorite playlist, watching movies, or enjoying a podcast, the sound experience is immersive and balanced. The spatial audio feature takes things to the next level, making you feel like the sound is coming from all around you, perfect for watching movies or gaming. Noise Cancellation: Apple has seriously upped their noise-canceling game. It’s like flipping a switch between the world around you and your own personal soundscape. Even in noisy environments, like the subway or a bustling coffee shop, I found that the noise cancellation was incredibly effective without any discomfort or pressure that you sometimes get with other brands. Comfort: The design is sleek and the ear cups feel like they were made for long-term wear. The padding is soft, and the overall fit is snug without being too tight, so you can wear them for hours without any discomfort. The lightweight design also means I barely feel them on my head, making them perfect for extended listening sessions. Battery Life: Apple's claim of an all-day battery life is spot on. I’ve gotten through long flights, entire workdays, and several podcast marathons without needing to charge them. Plus, they charge fast. A quick 15-minute charge gives you hours of playback, which is perfect when you're on the go. Design and Build: These headphones not only sound amazing, but they also look stunning. The finish is smooth and high-quality, and the folding mechanism is sleek and sturdy. It’s clear Apple put a lot of thought into both aesthetics and durability. Smart Features: The integration with Siri and Apple’s ecosystem is seamless. I love being able to control everything from music to calls with a simple tap or voice command. The head-tracking with spatial audio is a fun and functional addition, and it really does make a difference when you’re watching movies or shows in Apple TV+. Overall, these headphones are a massive win for Apple. Whether you're an audiophile or just someone who enjoys top-tier audio, these headphones deliver an exceptional listening experience in every way. If you're already in the Apple ecosystem, these will feel like a natural extension of your devices, and if you’re new to Apple, you’ll be hooked after the first listen. Rating: 5/5 – Truly a premium experience!
