Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was undecided on which air pods pro to get, finally decided on the nice color an overall good quality. They look very aesthetic and good brand.

I got this headphones out of curiosity mainly because a lot of articles said they sound fantastic and they weren't exaggerating, they really sounded great, probably one of the best sounding headphones I have ever tried even. These pair work great within Apple ecosystem but they may not be that good with outside Apple World so I would say if you are Apple products owner, this headphones are definitely for you.

The color is beautiful! Super comfy great for the gym ! Sound perfect

Daughter absolutely Loves this Product I wish I would have bought more including the Pro2’s

Great headphones. Awesome used with Apple TV for that surround sound movie experience- maximum volume never distorts. “Smart” Apple features like noise reduction, clear calls, and Siri text reading are great. Flawless device switching is much better that AirPods pro. A+

Feels amazing on the ears. Sound quality are a1. I love them

I hve given it as a gift and my wife loves it really well

All I can say is WOW!!! For a 1st generation, Apple pretty much hit this out of the park. If the price point was $400-$450, this would have easily gotten a 5 Star. There are a few cons that I want to point out on these. Price is the biggest con with these. I cannot justify paying $550 + Tax for a pair of headphones for a typical non audiophile user. As a normal consumer, $400 is pushing the upper limits for a pair of headphones, but because this is Apple, they priced these higher than normal because they can actually get away with it. The other cons are the case and not having a 3.5mm adapter if you want to plug it into an airplane or computer. First off, both of these are not deal breakers for me, it would have been nice for them to include a 3.5mm jack, but being that it's Apple, they will find any way they can to squeeze consumers for every last penny. The case does what it needs to for the most part. I am concerned that the mesh part of the head band is not protected at all since that's the most vulnerable part. But, this will lead 3rd parties to come up with a protective sleeve or cover for it. The AirPods Max are heavier than the competition due to the aluminum & stainless steel material used here. Apple did not cut corners when they designed this and I am glad because they do not look or feel cheap at all. Starting to see why they charged $550. They look classy in a throwback kind of way. The ear cups and head band don't protrude out and pretty much follows the curvature of your head. Despite it being heavier, the mesh band does a great job at spreading the weight out as to not develop any pain at the crown of my head. The clamping design on the ear cups will bear most of the weight. The ear cushions are nice and soft and I did not feel my ears getting hot or sticky like the leatherette ear cups on the competitions. Even though I didn't feel any pain on the crown after hours of usage, I did notice that my neck was a little sore. If that's the case, you can just lie down or lean your head back on to a pillow or something. As for the sound, these are the best sounding headphones I have owned. My go to prior to this was the B&W PX7's. I really like the sound on these because it was balanced and clean without too much bass to muddy up the sound. The Sony XM4's would be great if they were the only headphones on earth, but they are not and I am not too much of a fan of their sound signature. I feel they are a little too warm and bass heavy that muddies up the mid's and highs for me. They too also got hot after wearing for a while. The AirPods Max are well balanced with just the enough bass to give the song a little life. Although, I did wish there was a little bit more sub-bass for the rumble effect. But all in all, the sound on these are so clean and does not distort even at max level. The sound separation are so great that I am able to hear more instruments on these than any other headphones I've tried. If you have an iPhone, you can go in and change the settings around to boost the soft sounds. You can do this by going into Settings/Accessories/Audio/Visual/Headphone Accommodations. I have my set at Balanced Tone and Moderate. If you have the money to spend and in the Apple eco-system, these will be the best money spent for your ears. Just keep in mind that out of the box, they might not sound great, but after some burn in time, you will start to appreciate what Apple has done with these.

I got this a while ago and it still works great just as new!

Always wanted these headphones. Was hesitant to buy because of price but have no regrets owning Apple TV, IPad, IMac computer and two iPhones.

Best sound quality and microphone I've ever used with headphones. Only four stars because the price, and lack of case (the case is more like a bra), is a bit insane.

Amazing!!! The noise cancellation is so good I can’t hear anything! Love them

This things are amazing no glazing. I’ve worn them on ever trip for the past couple years and I love them.

amazing quality. battery life lasts forever without charge

I’ve been using the Apple AirPods Max for a month now, and so far, I’m impressed. The transparency mode is my favorite feature these headphones offer. Since I have an iPhone, the ease of use is through the roof. My only problem with these headphones is the price and age. The cost, I feel, is too high, but the build quality is crazy good. I’m not sure if it justifies the price. The fact that these headphones are four years old and Apple has not given this product a refresh is bonkers. Even with the personal problems I have with these headphones, I love these headphones. I hope Apple will update these ASAP.

Personally for its price it is not the most suitable pair of headphones, after testing it exhaustively I come to the conclusion that you can get a similar experience with the pro 2, they are not very portable, and heavy. However, if the quality of construction is unmatched

The Good: build quality, Apple device integration, comfortable ear-pads, sound effects for TV & movie, weight management (it's heavy in hand, but the band helps a lot when put on head) The Bad (not so bad, just don't put your expectation too high): sound quality for normal music (okay but not WOW), initial clamping force (okay after two days) The ugly: the ODOR from the earpads and carrying bag is the worst among the numerous gadgets I bought in recent years, DON'T put your nose near them and breath when you first open the package. After 3 days, the odor was left. But Apple really need to handle this before shipping out!

I thought ear mesh was going to be more confortable but looks sturdy, sounds nice. Battery lasts.

Great device easy to connect to phone fit comfortably they sound great and the NC is super good

Pricy, yes. The audio quality is fantastic though. You can find similar quality in other brands here too, but if you’re buying these, you are buying them because you’re married to the brand. They automatically connect to every Apple device I own. Spatial audio is great when you choose “fixed.” I was on the fence for months, but I’m very satisfied with the purchase.
