    Amazing sound quality. I wanted a pair with good noise cancellation, and they definitely deliver. I've always used AirPods Pro, but rediscovered my love for music using these. Now that I have them, I wonder why I waited so long. Totally worth it, especially if you catch a good sale price. Also like having the opportunity to have AppleCare so I know I'll be able to fix or replace if there are issues.

    The Apple AirPods Max deliver exceptional sound quality, effective noise cancellation, and seamless integration with Apple devices in a sleek, premium design. With features like spatial audio and Transparency Mode, they offer an immersive listening experience. However, their high price, heavier build, and limited customization for non-Apple users might be drawbacks. Ideal for Apple enthusiasts seeking top-tier performance, but competitors offer better value for the price.

    Great Headphones

    Great pair of headphones. I wouldn't pay the full $550 for it by any means, but if you come across these on sale or see it discounted more elsewhere, remember you can have Best Buy price match these headphones -- it's what I did. Perfect if you're in the apple ecosystem - switching between devices is even more seamless than with my AirPods Pro. Sound quality is excellent. Headphones are very comfortable. If they don't feel right on your head or too tight on first wear, don't forget to lengthen the band at the parts that attach to the cups. It may not seem like you can lengthen the headset, but you can. Noise cancellation is very, very good. The case it comes with is very, very stupid due to the fact it's required to put the headphones into in order for them to go into sleep mode and not drain battery faster. It's my only con for these headphones. Keep in mind, you can purchase accessories online that can put these headphones to sleep that are better than the dumb case they come with. Still, it would be nice if Apple provided a way to put these into sleep mode with the buttons.

    I really did not want to like these over the ear headphones. I had managed to refrain for over two years from buying them, but sometimes the ghost of Steve Jobs pulls a Whoopi Goldberg, takes over my body and buys anything from the stupid Apple company. I will be the first to say I think their pricing is absolutely ridiculous on about 30 to 40% of their items ... this being one of them, but I love them, i absolutely loved my overpriced headphones and if a majority of your electronics are Apple (you know iPhone, ipad /pro, MacBook , MacBook Pro , you basically are forced to buy all apple devices as it is so refreshing and reassuring with how seamlessly the products interact with each other . seamlessly connecting and i very rarely Have any problems with them?

    Was not convinced on these until I had them on ear. They feel great, look great, and are easy. If you have an IPhone, it's a no brainer. The sound quality, noise cancellation, Apple ecosystem, and style make these some of the best headphones on the market right now.

    Apple Air Pod Max headphones

    Excellent sound! Everything that you would come to expect from a premium apple product. Bass is not overpowering and actually adds to the crisp sound experience. Very easy to pair with apple device and also to switch devices. I have an iMac, iPad, and iPhone and am able to connect to all 3 seamlessly. to sure how it would work on non-apple devices but it is bluetooth so I am sure connectivity would not be an issue. The noise cancellation is awesome and rivals that of the BOSE headsets which actually do this the best in my opinion. The transparency mode works exceptionally well and the spatial sound is INCREDIBLE! Just like watching a movie in the theatre when watching movies and video on iPhone, iPad, or computer. Another really cool feature is that you can connect with your Apple TV to allow for a personal viewing experience that does not disturb any one else in case you're watching TV late at night. Aesthetically these things are very nice! Mesh ear cups are comfortable, though after long periods they do get a little warm. Ear cups can be replaced as well after wear, though for $60. The headset is a bit heavy due to the aluminum, but doesn't really bother me much when wearing them. One thing I would change is the case. For a $550 headset you would think that it would warrant some type of hard shell case, but you have to get that after market. Also battery lasts a while, but does drain if not placed in case, since that is the only way they turn completely off. Other than those small things I think these are an exceptional purchase and am enjoying them immensely!

    These headphones are worth the price! I was very pleasantly surprised with the sound quality and the overall build of the headphones. In my opinion they’re not as heavy as other reviewers said that they were and I found them to be very comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. I really like the fact that you can listen to them while they’re charging, major plus in my book. Prior to the AirPods Max I was using one of the Sony XM1000 models that doesn’t allow you to do so. These are definitely big headphones, so if you’re looking for something compact, these aren’t for you. Another cool feature is “Spatial Audio”. I cued up the final episode of “The Falcon and Winter Soldier” and was blown away! I was in the midst of the action! I’m not a person who has super high standards when it comes to cases for my headphones so I don’t mind the silly case Apple provides, nor do I care that they never truly turn off. The trade off you get is being able to charge your AirPods max for 5 minutes and get 1.5 hours of listening time. There are other gripes that I’ve seen reviewers have but I’m not going to die on any of those hills. These are a very nice pair of headphones and I’m glad I bought them.

    A Honest Maybe Slightly Bias Review

    Im an ex-Apple employee, and not to sound like im an obsessed Apple Fan, but these headphones are definitely worth it, just make sure you can find it at a discount 'cause everyone knows Apple has never has heard of a discount before. They're soft, and easy to pair with an iPhone, I think it's really cool that you can take out the mesh cups, because honestly other companies dont really consider it. Now I cant really get into the specifics about the quality of music or sound because im not an audiophile. Im not going to say theyre the best thing my ears has ever heard because I simply dont know, but if you are looking to build your apple ecosystem, then these headphones are really amazing to have, especially on the plane, walking in the city, on public transit, or even just cleaning your house. The transparency mode and noise-cancellation work really well. and all the controls are simple to understand in like 5 minutes.

    Self proclaimed Audiophile Review.

    I consider myself an Audiophile and yes these are expensive; but they are different from all other AirPods. I’m writing this review after having them for 2 hrs. The audio quality blows away other AirPods including the AirPods Pro. Beats are garbage in the high end headphones market. so it’s not even a comparison (I’m sure I’ll get some backlash for that. Lol.) I’ve owned Bose, Sennheiser, klipsch, I’ve also owned a pair of wired Denon ($1100 for the Denon), pretty much every generation and model of AirPods and these are easily at the top for a high end wireless headphone The Bass is well pronounced and clean, maybe a little high on the treble. All frequencies lows, mids, and highs, are distinguishable and very clean. absolutely no distortion even at full volume The ANC is second to none. There isn’t a headphone that has better ANC than the Airpod Max. Just for some perspective “Bose” have military grade noise cancellation in their QC models. Before these Bose was the leader in the ANC Market. NOT ANYMORE If you can afford the AirPods Max I strongly recommend them. Well worth the price tag.

    I've owned my pair of Airpods Max from the day they came out and have been extremely pleased throughout my time owning them. Sound quality is better than any other wireless headphones I've tried and used including Sony XM5s and Bose's Quietcomforts. Because of the adaptive EQ feature, these headphones adjust the sound signature to suit whatever genre of music you listen to, making them the most versatile over ear headphones I've used. The noise cancelling is also amazing, cancelling out everything that I've thrown at it while not causing any discomfort or headaches with extended use. The transparency mode is unmatched; it literally sounds like I'm not using headphones when it's on and can have a complete conversation with people while listening to music. With that all being said, I used to wear my pair everyday for hours at a time, treating it more like an everyday accessory than a casual pair of headphones and as a result the fabric portion of the headband has deflated to the point that the steel bars of the headband has begun to press uncomfortably against my head when using it for longer than 30 minutes. The issue began about a year and a half after owning and using them religiously. I was able to have the headband replaced free of charge due to having Applecare+, however, the issue happened again after another year or so. Results may vary depending on how often you use them and how long you use them for at a time, but it is something to keep in mind should you decide to make these your daily driver headphones. Long term gripes aside, these are the best wireless headphones that I can recommend.
