Customer Ratings & Reviews

GREAT sound for these headphones. I have a few gripes with them, but I would still use them. Cons: - "protective case" isn't really very protective - no off switch - the automatic device change isn't ideal when I'm working. I use these for conference calls, but if my phone rings, they think they need to change over to my phone, which is not desired behavior - when recording my podcast, these don't work well due to the audio delay when monitoring. They're great for single use when I'm mowing my lawn or away from home, but not the best when multiple apple devices are within range.

Fantastic sound. Comfortable fit. Worth every penny.

Great headset for movies, gaming and music!. The noise cancellation is also a game changer with clean/clear audio highly recommend!

I decided to purchase these headphones with the idea that it would be good to go along with my iPhone. Functionality and all. I didn’t expect to realize how good they sound, how good they feel. I was debating on these or the Beats Studio pro, and obviously the price difference was significant, but I see the lil things and why sometimes going for a lower price item is the best option. They are worth it. And I love the idea that they are actually in some form “customizable” with interchangeable ear pieces. I’ve had the Beats Studio older models, and I hated that the “leather” part started to flake off and get on me and my shirts. And fixing them weren’t as easy. With these, you technically don’t have to worry about that. For the time I’ve had the AirPods Max headphones, I’m happy and not regretting my decision to go with them over some of the other competitor options.

Best headphones I have had. Light weight , fits well and the sound is great.

Overall I like these. Wouldn’t say they are the best in audio quality compared to Sony or Bose but for being a part of the apple eco system and the fluid features and build quality it upholds I couldn’t pass up on them. Bass it honestly missing from these headphones and hoping when they drop the 2.0 version it has the same features as the air pods pro (adaptive hearing, conversation option and all that)

Comfortable and sound great! Easy to use controls.

Superb sound and headphones are well made. I was skeptical at first, because the price has been consistent since they were released by Apple 3 years ago. However, I am very satisfied with the quality and sound.

Great headphones!! In my opinion these are the best headphones I’ve ever heard or used; they sound amazing!! Music, movies, videos all sound great. Very well made, feel solid, like true high end headphones. That said, the only minor negative is that they are a bit heavy and you will definitely feel it if you wear them for an extended period of time. Nonetheless I would still recommend them.

Physical build is extraordinary! High quality albeit a bit too heavy for my liking...Sound quality is also very good. I am not a fan of the complex setup and features (no way to manually shut off the headphones)...I got these as a "Open Box-Excellent" but they already had been used and "Named" by a prior user who must have returned them immediately. Price is simply too high in actuality, but I will keep them anyway as I hate to return stuff once I have it.

I love these headphones. Great sound. Great fit. Best headphones I have used.

These are incredibly light and comfortable. I love the different audio options. I think regular price is a little high but got a good sale price on these.

The color is great, love the color white color more then any other, also the plastic covers could be white to any other.

Great hear music the sound is pretty clean. The color is amazing. It comes with a case

Highly recommended if you’re looking to space out and just relax while listening to music. Noise cancellation works really well.

The best headphones I’ve ever owned! They grow on you so fast - the noise cancellation is my favorite feature because it truly blocked out all the sound around you. Complete silence when you have the noise cancellation and the volume all the way up. Worth all the money and I highly recommend!

The Apple AirPods Max are a premium offering in the headphone market, combining exceptional sound quality with Apple’s signature design and ecosystem integration. The audio experience is immersive, with rich bass, detailed mids, and crisp highs, complemented by active noise cancellation that effectively blocks out ambient noise. The spatial audio feature enhances the listening experience, especially when watching movies or playing games. The build quality is top-notch, with a luxurious feel, though the weight might be noticeable during extended use. The price is steep, but for those deeply invested in the Apple ecosystem, it’s a worthwhile splurge.

Love these headphones. Definitely better sound quality and build for headphones. Two things to note: 1) the headband is a mesh netting type material, so longevity is unknown, and 2) these are not versatile headphones. They are not water resistant and are designed for luxury listening. If you are okay with those two things, are in the ecosystem, and are comfortable coughing up then $550, these are good headphones!

I am quite impressed with these headphones. They replaced a pair of Bose noise canceling headphones that were becoming a little dated. These were an obvious upgrade to sound quality and noise cancellation. The fit and finish was typical apple quality. They are just a bit heavier than I expected but not so much that it’s an aggravation. Connection to my iPhone and iPad as well as my home theater system was very easy. I listen to music daily for an hour or more at a time and the audio quality is not burdensome over time like some headphones can be. Their not audiophile quality output but as close as you can get in this price range. One thing I was especially surprised by is the spatial audio virtual sound when connected to my home theater. It’s exactly what you would want if you had to listen through headphones. They are very pricy, as is everything Apple. But the build quality and setup in the Apple ecosphere is as simple as can be. The controls are well placed and the volume control provides audio and a tactile feel feedback when adjusting volume. The Bluetooth range is great and I have no dropouts around the house unless I go outside. The case is a little wonky and looks like a purse with the headphones inside but it does have a quality feel and has some added functionality and protects the headphones very well. It’s well thought out. Overall, I have no complaints whatsoever with these headphones and feel like they were a great choice.

Amazing sound, best consumer headphones I’ve heard. Noise cancelation is unmatched. Unfortunately they are big, bulky, and heavy. Because of the weight they tend to slip off your head if your moving, walking, working out. Hopefully Apple will refine the APMax in the future. Currently they are not worth $500.
