    I love my new AirPods Pro! I waited a while to get them due to the high price point, but they are so worth it. They are great for travel and cancel out noise very well with noise cancellation on. I would definitely recommend these!

    Best headphone, microphone combo I have ever purchased. I thought I lost my first pair so I bought another then found the first pair and kept both. Crystal clear sound, never drop calls. Sound is fantastic. I've never felt like I couldn't function without headphones to talk on the phone... now I do! One of the pads on the headphone fell off and can't be found. Challenging to find a replacement :(

    Very happy with my purchase. Everything works great and I’m quite satisfied with the audio quality and the noise cancellation because it’s a very much needed feature for me. I’m deep into the Apple ecosystem so seamless switching between all of my devices has been very good.

    Was looking for headphones that give extra sound on the bass and these did not disappoint. A coworker of mine had me try hers out one day and I was instantly sold. These are perfect for my gym sessions on the days I lift.

    Like the fact that there is no on\off button, love the simplicity and functionality of the case and the great sound. Sometimes have issues with one side not working or no sound coming thru.

    Do not purchase these in the silver/white colorway. Unless you religiously clean them (which is a hassle) they will grow dingy with time. I've never had a problem throwing the ear cups in the wash, and carefully scrubbing the headband with detergent and water, but they will not stay proper white forever and you'll wish you bought Space Grey. If you're worried about the charging case thing, don't. I bought these and immediately threw it away. Reviews when I first bought the Max made it sound like this was some integral part of the headphones - it's not. I've never put them in that case once. I have had no issues with battery life just letting them be outside of the case. They don't take long to charge, and in the rare event they should get to critically low battery just set them to charge somewhere for an hour and they'll be back to nearly full power. The sound is great - incredibly clear, and enjoyable. Because they're wireless there's a cap on how good the audio quality you'll get from these is, but as far as wireless, convenient set-ups go it's really great. Apple made a big fuss about how easy they are to switch between Apple products but it's not quite as simple as you'd expect. They work great with the iPhone - pair them to the phone and they'll usually switch right over but: Your Macbook/iMac products will detect when the Airpods Max are close by, and tell you "nearby" but will require you to click to switch them over. This doesn't always happen on the first try and can require some finagling to get them to actually connect which can be a minor inconvenience that gets more frustrating over time. Additionally they tend to want to switch back to the iPhone, so if you're listening to audio from your Apple computer but accidentally trigger some sound on your iPhone you will lose connection and have to reconnect. I recognize these are distinctly first world, not-enough-to-complain about problems. The noise cancelling is actually shocking at first. Blocks out almost all the noise you could hope for and maybe a little more. Works great as a headset for phone calls and Zoom meetings but the aesthetic takes some getting used to - it's like having two aluminum bars of soap on either side of your head. Microphone quality is fine - pretty clear but you wouldn't record a podcast on it. That said, there is also a passthrough mode that uses microphones to essentially pipe in the outside audio as a means to let you hear what's going on around you, and participate, while keeping the headphones on. This is sort of handy, but most people will not engage with you because you have headphones on, and because these things are big it sends a pretty clear social message that you cannot hear, so the in real life usefulness of the passthrough for conversation is suspect at best. Sure, you can explain that "oh yes, I can hear you there's actually a setting..." but at that point just take the things off. The "head detection" is nifty. The inside of the cups have little detectors that can tell when your ear is inside and will turn the headphones on/off and pause your media as a result. This is tricky if you're trying to use them with only one ear to remain present in a room you're in as it will occasionally cut off audio because it thinks you're not listening. Prior to these I was using the Bose QC35ii headphones. These were an improvement on audio, and build quality. These are very expensive headphones. They feel expensive, but are they *really* worth $600 after tax? No, not really. Overall the audio/build quality doesn't justify the $300 price jump from similar models. If you like Apple, you'll like these, but next time I'll probably opt for a pair of headphones focused exclusively on audio quality.

    Headphones are comfortable, cute, functional. They deliver exceptional sound quality and some of the best noise cancellation on the market, wrapped in a sleek, high-quality design. However, their hefty price tag I’m in love
