Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing sound, the features are alright but they could have offered more colors.

Good pair of headphones, use it at the gym mostly, but expensive.

Love them so much definitely will buy again Very good quality

Sounds Fantastic and noise cancellation is perfect on the headphones.

Another great apple product. I pulled the trigger on these with the Black Friday sale. I am glad I did. They are amazing just like the AirPods Pro gen 2. I wish these had usb C charging other than that they are great. Again apple worked the magic with the Spatial Audio. I am very impressed with their sound for movies very cinema like experience with headphones. I have audiophile sennheiser and hifiman headsets for music these are good but not on that level. But some of the best headphones for movie lovers! Apples Spatial Audio is some of the best I have heard.

Purchased on sale which is what finally caused me to buy and glad I did. Had no doubts on the quality; it’s an Apple product, but these feel very premium with no plastic. Sound quality is very high for iTunes tracks including Lossless, but particularly for Dolby Atmos songs which can be hit or miss, but come with a wider soundstage. These will not work with Hi-Res audio tracks, but trust that you won’t care to notice. The excellent sound is more obvious when listening to Dolby Atmos movies, so these headphones are great for home theater listening. Action movies will pop! AirPods Max are at the top of the consumer headphones space. I do think audiophiles must admit the sound is very good, but these are not for studio recording and that shouldn’t be an expectation. Sure, you can drop $1000 on some wired audiophile cans, but that’s not the market for these. These are very expensive consumer headphones for sure, but if you catch a sale, they will not disappoint.

I had the B&W's first, their noise cancellation wasn't up to part for me, especially on NJ Transit, they kept cutting out. Also a little too bass heavy. Not being a stranger to spending money on audio equipment, I returned them and got the APMs. Initially I was a little underwhelmed by the audio quality, but I feel after a few weeks they're not perfectly "burned in". The sound quality doesn't quite reach a $200 set of wired Beyerdynamics (like a DT 770 or 990) or Sennheisers. But you can't listen to those on the road. And the APMs sound pretty friggin' good. The noise cancellation is fantastic, just unparalleled, quiet bliss. Except for car horns, which is an asset to hear when you're walking through NYC. The case is stupid, and I wish you could turn them off without the case (no power button?!) and they made my ears itch for a few weeks (seems fine now, whatever it was offgassed). Connects seamlessly with iOS devices, on the Macbook I keep having to hit the "Connect" popup when I put them on even thought it's set to auto connect (only a slight nuisance). Go figure, but I took a star off, especially for the case. Argh, I gave Apple money again :-)

Love them n super comfortable and great sound as well as color

Ought these pricey headphones for my daughter… was not sure why they cost so much, but wanted to please my teenager for the holiday. She extremely happy with them, especially their noise cancelation capabilities.

Great battery, great sound. Love how heavy. They stay on my head well.

Best headphones I’ve owned…exceptional sound and I love Apple

Best headphones ..................................

These headphones are legit the best ever! I would suggest getting insurance on them. They are an investment.

I’ve had this for about a year now and they offer really great sound quality and feel very premium.

Are they worth 550? If you have an iPhone yes. Android or anything else, maybe not. The iPhone will give you audio editing/tuning options that you will not find elsewhere. On the iPhone make sure you are updated to the latest iOS that help the phone truly recognize the headphones, and then update the firmware of the headset itself. I consider myself an audiophile, and when I try new headphones, the sound test I put them through is fairly simple, and I play 5 key songs of different genres that I would say have “hidden sounds” or instruments that cheaper headphones would not catch. These pass the test, and surpass the Bose and Sony headsets in separating instruments, the “soundstage” effect. If you are a person who can’t tell the difference in good headphones versus others, don’t waste your time, because you won’t be able to justify the reasoning for the pricing. The comfort is amazing, and I can wear these for 4 hours plus with no discomfort. They look great, and noise cancellation is amazing on these headphones.

Works amazing! Sound quality was fantastic and they were a comfortable fit!

Fantastic quality and great sound. If you’re within the Apple eco system and you prefer over the ear headphones these are great. The controls are convenient and not overly done. The noise cancellation and pass through are also better than expected. They are comfortable to me at least although if I wear them longer than an hour my ears tend to sweat. Battery life has been great and better than what I had expected after watching numerous reviews. Only thing that prevents a 5 star is the price. While they are of great quality and the product has been tremendous for me, the price is a little higher than I wanted to pay initially and I got them on sale. Also the carrying case for them is… weird. At the end of the day it’s not a deal breaker, but I’m not a huge fan. Overall great product. Fluid between all my Apple products and would recommend.

The sound quality is amazing, with rich and detailed audio. Plus, they have active noise cancellation, so you can really immerse yourself in your music or podcasts. They're also super comfortable to wear, thanks to the soft ear cushions and adjustable headband. The battery life is pretty good too, lasting up to 20 hours on a single charge. Overall, if you're an Apple fan and looking for a high-quality audio experience, the AirPods Max are definitely worth considering!

I bought this one 1 year ago , excellent apple item .

worth the sale price. pretty good sound quality and fast shipping.
