Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased these headphones for my wife so that we can share the audio during the flight wirelessly. The connectivity for these headphones was much better than the Bose QualityComfort II 35 that we previously owned. The best thing about using these headphones is that there is not a separate application to manage the settings on the headphones. All other vendors need to work with Apple in order to implement this level of ability to control so that there is not a separate application to manage the headphones.

I want to say that it took me about two months of researching to validate the price market of $500. I spent countless hours watching YouTube videos and reading reviews because I needed some reassurance that my $500 purchase would be worth every penny. Every review and video is consistent; this product is about quality. You get quality sound, quality noise cancellation, and overall great quality music experience with the spatial audio feature. I picked these up since my AirPods Pro got killed in the washing machine. I used those everyday and figured this was an opportunity to upgrade. The first thing I noticed was the quality of my favorite sounds. This also did really well with gaming; the spatial audio really shines here. Another thing which I use these for is SLEEP! These are actually very comfortable to wear; regardless of them being “heavy,” they are oh so comfortable when using to sleep. I have a partner who sleeps late at night and likes to keep the TV on, so the noise cancellation just takes out all the sound when I pop in some sleep sounds like rain or space deck videos on YouTube. Only issue I ever had was the Bluetooth (I have my headset connected to about 6 different devices; both mixture of Pc and Apple) there are times I have to reconnect my device by holding down the Digital Crown since it won’t pickup the device from previous connections. Overall, it’s based on what your expectations and preferences are for headphones. This one really just set the bar for me. Also, I would highly recommended trying these out at the very least being that you can just refund it if it’s not something you’re happy with. All out honesty; $500 is a lot for a pair of headsets, but I can’t complain because these headsets have become part of my everyday life. If the price tag is too much, I would recommend sticking to the AirPods or do some research on other alternatives.

I loved this headphone! He changed my workouts for the better, he gives instability, security, the sound is incredible. I recommend it to everyone who wants a motivation to start their workouts, I hope I can buy it for my husband, he will love to have one.

Great sound and comfort and features. Expensive but worth it if you use headphones.

I debating buying these for about a year before actually purchasing them and let me tell you… I am beyond happy with them. As far as battery life and connectivity they are absolutely flawless. The audio quality is just absolutely out of this world! Exactly what i had expected if not better! The unboxing bit of it of course feels like any other apple product and it felt rather luxurious unwrapping such gorgeous headphones. Now for my FAVORITE part, the options for noise cancellation and transparency modes are insane! Theres an option that almost makes my hearing better, it amplifies the audio outside of the headphones and can be really helpful when youd like to listen to music but still have to interact with others. I also really enjoy this feature for the feeling of safety in public with them! One of the things that originally deterred me from buying them was a review i saw where they commented on the weight. The weight is not too heavy, but you can tell theyre durable. I think these are perfect for anyone between the range of everyday commuter to people that need accommodations while in public. I could not recommend these enough. If i could spend the rest of my life with one piece of tech, itd be these.

These were a great gift and the Husband love them!

Excellent sound and they are very comfortable , totally worth it.

These sound great and battery life is excellent. Could be cheaper, but the product itself is highly recommended.

I was given some AirPods (wireless) as a gift. I use them, but I’m not a big fan of earbuds. I have a pair of Bose soundlink headphones. They sound pretty good but wanted a pair of noise cancelling headphones. I tried the Sony Xm4s in the store and I didn’t care for them. I feel their base is overkill. Didn’t like the bose 700 either. To be honest I’m know audiophile, but I felt the sound of my apple AirPods wasn’t bad. I had made a comment to my wife before the apple air pod max were released that I wished apple made some over the ear headphones. They did!! I’m very deep in the Apple ecosystem. Apple Music, MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone 12 Pro Max etc. I know their products are pricey but they last. I love the sound and the build quality of my air pod max headphones. It makes my Bose soundlink headphones sound cheap. Spatial audio is awesome!!! Really no words to describe it. I know these are pricey, but I just love the vintage style and build quality of these headphones. It reminds me of my cameras. I have a Nikon D3 and Nikon D750. The bullied quality of my D3 makes my 750 feel like a toy. Build quality is important to me. I don’t know if I would recommend these for someone that is not invested in Apple. If you are, in my opinion these are worth it. You pay for quality.

Love these headphones. Amazing noise cancellation, awesome comfort and amazing sound. Apple does not disappoint with any of their products. These are the best of the best. Purchased the “old” model due to a decent price savings from the “new” edition. There are literally no performance difference or anything between the two. Only difference is usbc charging on the “new”, vs lightning cable on the “old”. Save yourself some money and get these!! Everyone who uses Apple has a lightning cable or five just laying around!

I’ve owned Bose Headphones and all the generations of the airpods. The Airpod Max headphones are by far the best I’ve used. The features and noise cancellation are superb. No regrets purchasing. Everyone who has tried them on instantly want a pair. Get them!

Great headphones! Love the quality and battery life of these.

Great head phones. Loved the noise cancellation on them!

Sound is quite impressive. Fit over my ears is good, but feel like the cushion material could be slight more comfortable. Are there comparable sounding headphones that are less expensive? Perhaps, but the tight integration with the Mac universe is a huge value proposition that I really enjoy. Definitely recommend getting an inexpensive carrying case as the included car doesn’t offer much protection while traveling.

The best I ever had, sound quality excellent,battery good,connectivity excellent

Great headphones. The noise cancellation is top tier and the mic on these during call is good too.

These are excellent but worth > $500? Not really enough of a benefit and my Bose and Beats over the ear headphones have similar quality.

Absolutely beautiful color Fantastic sound Would buy it again

I really like the noise cancellation and I like the fact that it pauses when you take it off from your head

I do enjoy these for certain places such as the airport and starbucks while studying. I do not enjoy these for working out/running, they are bulky, they fall, and they are super loud when running.
