Customer Ratings & Reviews

The best headphones ever!!! Sound quality is EXCELLENT and I love that the noise canceling feature actually cancels out the sounds of the city.

As much as I wanted to dislike this product due to the high price tag, I just can't dislike them. I already own the Sony XM4 headphones and had watched reviews on these. I saw mixed reviews. Some said they loved them, some said they were not worth the money. I really like my Sony's until I listened to the Airpods Max. Now...I can't really listen to the Sony's as I find the sound to be muddy and missing separation between things. The Airpods Max have such better separation and clear, crisp sounds in the higher frequencies. While I still feel the Sony's do have more "punch" at times, I know find that it is not clear and muddies the sound in the mid-range. The sub-base on the Airpods Max is so clean. The sound on the Airpods Max is great on bluetooth, but the sound is even better when connected via a cable and the use of a DAC. The sound is also greatly improved when listening to Hi-Res sources like Amazon Music HD or Tidal. If the excellent sound quality was not enough to sell me, the noise cancellation is certainly right on par with the Sony's, but they blow the competition away when is comes to the "pass through" mode. With other headphones, I found the "pass through" to be more gimmicky than an actual value. Some have implementations that make is useable, but the Airpods Max make is pleasure to use the mode. It is so natural sounding that I don't mind carrying on a conversation with the headphones on. That was the feature that had me completely sold. While the first portion of this give the headphones a rave review, I do have to mention the only part I hate about the headphones...the dreaded case! Call it a "bra" or a "purse" or whatever else is floating around out there, I really don't know what Apple was thinking. Outside of putting the headphone immediately into their "low power" state, there is nothing else of value with the case. It is ugly, not the easiest to get the headphones back into, and provides no protection for a product with a high price tag. There have been Apple products in the past I have questioned that have eventually become accepted (original Airpods)...I don't see how that can happen with this case. My recommendation is to check around on Amazon as there are already 3rd party options available that will offer the low power state. TLDR: These are the best sounding bluetooth headphones I have used, have tremendous build quality, work perfectly in the Apple Ecosystem, and have the best "pass through" audio mode I have ever heard. Look for an alternate case option.

The AirPods Max are literally the best headphones I’ve ever used. I’ve tested a lot of headphones and this one is superior to all of them. Incredible ANC, incredible transparency, incredible everything!

As expected, these headphones play amazingly nice with Apple devices. Seamlessly connect when you put them on, disconnects when you take them off. The sound quality is very good but not great when compared to B&O headphones. The AirPod Max does have some neat special audio features as well the as some of the best active noise canceling I’ve experienced so far. I personally find the ear cups to be rougher & scratchier than I’d prefer although this is not a dear breaker. Build quality is top notch overall. Basically bought to seamlessly switch between iPhone, MacBook & AppleTV. I’d say that 80% of the time, the convenience is worth it. There are moments where I switch over to B&O or professional headphones. While I’m not mad for the price I paid ($440 after tax), $300-350 would be the sweet spot where I’d say it’s a definite purchase.

Very good headset, excellent on hearing music and very excellent noise cancellation, also is very comfortable to wear

My favorite headphones in my rotation, very comfy easy to use and surprisingly not heavy once it’s on your head. Would spring for usb c version but lightning isn’t a deal breaker

Really love how comfortable they are and how i am able to zone everyone out and just relax

I’ve been using the AirPods Max and honestly, they’re amazing. The sound is super clear and balanced, and the noise cancellation blocks out everything – perfect for travel or focusing. They’re also really comfy, even for long periods. I love how easily they connect to all my Apple devices, and the Spatial Audio makes movies and music feel way more immersive. The battery lasts a long time too. Yeah, they’re pricey, but if you’re in the Apple ecosystem and want top-tier headphones, they’re totally worth it.

Great product. Noise reduction and sleek. Color pretty

It is an Apple product and it says it all. Love the sound and noise cancellation

These are by far the best headphones I’ve ever purchased. I was weary at first when seeing the cost compared to just replacing my old AirPod pros that the batteries are dying on, but these are amazing. I work in a loud office and I can usually hear everything around me when I’m trying to focus on what I’m designing. With these, those troubles are long gone. Noise cancelling works flawlessly, and if I need to hear something important, I can flip back to transparency mode. I would highly recommend. The caveat I mentioned in the title is that my eye glasses cause a little bit of a problem with fitment. I wish they had thought of this or offered some cushions that allow for glasses that I could purchase separately.

Love these freaking things! They totally erase any other noise unless you hit the switch. Clarity and bass is unmatched.

First I need to say, It looks absolutely aesthetically. The sound is amazing, but even more I love how it absorbs sounds and in noisy place I can stay concentrated just with my thoughts. I can’t stop using it and I don’t want. Fall in love with it!

I love the sound and quality. The grip and handling

A little heavier than i expected, but great overall

It’s everything I hoped for and more, order and pick up process was easy

Had these for a while now and they easily to everything I have. Even my windows computer. The sound quality is amazing and durability isn’t terrible. They were harder to scratch than expected. They are even very comfortable especially considering their weight. They very rarely go dead on me. I charge them once a week and use them 2-4 hours a day if not more. The only problem I have had with them is that the sound quality on non apple products in my experience has been terrible.

Great headphones. Loving it. Although it’s kind of heavy, the quality is immaculate.

I’ve always bought beats instead of AirPods because that was my preference because I never had a problem with any headphones I bought but I will say I bought these just to try out in comparison and I was not disappointed at all
