Customer Ratings & Reviews

I am a bit of a geek when it comes to headphones. And the same holds true for Apple products. I have owned a pair if AirPods Pro true wireless headphones and was impressed with their innovative and simple operation but had to part with them as they did not fit well and would not stay in my ears or form a tight seal in my ear canals. The high price of the AirPods Max over ear cans really put me off the notion of buying them. And the fact that they only work with the Apple AAC Bluetooth codec, or with the lower standard SBC Bluetooth codec seemed to make the price-to-value gap even more pronounced. Last night I picked up a pair of blue AirPods Max at my local BestBuy and am completely sold on them. What changed my mind? They were on sale at what I felt to be a more reasonable price. And Apple just released its public beta version of TVoS 15 for the Apple TV 4K product which features Apple’s spatial audio with head tracking capability. Spatial Audio enabled video via Apple has been available since last fall on the iPhone and iPad. But not on Apple TV 4K. And it is also coming to the Mac very shortly, More and more Spatial Audio content - video and audio - is being added as well. Spatial Audio for Apple Music debuted earlier this month. Watching TV last night streaming “The Tomorrow War” on Amazon Prime Video via Apple TV beta Software update was a phenomenal experience with the AirPods Max. The immersive multi-channel like effect with directional tracking is crazy good. Apple TV allows you to pair two Bluetooth devices so two can watch together. AirPods Pro will also work with Apple TV 4K and spatial audio. But what about listening to music? I stream a lot of music and have been testing out various tracks on Tidal, Amazon Prime Music, and Apple Music, to rave results. I am not talking about lossless quality tracks but solid hi-fi tracks and spatial audio tracks and am super impressed with the clarity and quality of the audio. Do your own research by all means but I am sold on these. The versatility, excellent fit and finish, funky design, and ease of use across all devices is a win. I am hoping pricing will continue to ease on these as volume sales increase and Apple fully delivers on its device and content transformation plans.

I think it should take a lot to get a real 5-star product review, and most of the time Apple can be close (depending on how much of their stuff you have to integrate with). I have and love the AirPod Pros for day-to-day with calls, music, audiobooks, and recently been using them on planes for work commuting more and more as the noise canceling is pretty good. I got these because they were on sale and my old pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 (which I loved) were failing, so I figured I would buy these and worst case exchange for Sony headphones if these weren't worth the premium. I watched a lot of reviews, MKBHD had a review and I thought it seemed oversold on sound quality compared to what I thought was really good with the Sony options always, and I was initially underwhelmed and worried I would end up exchanging. Then I let them sit for a bit and settled in and used them for a day or two for my calls/video conferencing and music. I started to realize how much clarity I got without really losing anything. Instead of getting that punchy bass everywhere, you get bass that really acts as emphasis. Vocals are crystal clear. Mic quality is excellent. Comfort wise it is great over long periods. Noise canceling is at least as good (honestly seems better) than other headests I've had. Ambient mode is way better and doesn't have that harsh sound. Only knock on it is if you're doing anything active with them on I feel like the mesh cups do tend to absorb a bit more. The plastic backing makes it a little hard to clean but not impossible. They DO sell replacement ones, so I guess in the long run if it gets bad, it's replaceable. I do wonder the same about the headband material if it will get gross or stretched, but these first few weeks it's so comfortable I find reasons to reach for this headset over listening on other devices, just because I am liking it that much!

I have been using my max’s for almost a year now and I still love them and use them constantly.I gave it 4 stars though because i do think they could be better. Pros: Love the noise cancelling it works great, sound quality is also amazing, buttons are easy to use and access when you are wearing them. Cons: could be a bit more comfortable. I work from home so I wear them sometimes for hours and they do tend to get a bit uncomfortable after a while. I have slightly larger ears and piercings so sometimes it gets uncomfortable. the adjustable straps are nice but after a year they dont really stay tight they loosen and then slowly start to fall forward. It also gets pretty hot and sweaty after a while even with silicone covers I bought. Overall: Love the sound,quality and battery life but could be a bit more comfortable-will definitely get anither pair if they will upgrade them

These things sound amazing for blue tooth headphones. Very comfortable.

Very good and works wonderfully it’s the best for plan rids

Great for classical and jazz music. They fit me great the weight doesn’t bother me at all. One of my best accessory purchases.

The sound quality and battery life is out of this world! I love the option to be able to turn on and off the noise cancellation. They fit very comfortably around my head leaving me no issues with actively moving around while working out and comfortability traveling in the airport with them.

Outstanding headphones best i have ever had price is a bit high but having said that you pay for quality.

Sound quality is exceptional and even look better in person

My husband loves these. I got these for him as a Christmas gift and he had already used them at the gym. Little pricey though.

Great sound No volume not impressed for the money not impressed at all it should blow me away for what it costs.

I decided to make this review months after purchase because you really never know what you’re buying into until you get use out of it. First of all, amazing noise cancellation. Perfect for working out or being in loud environments. I use these bad boys during study time in a mild to noisy environment and the AirPods Max completely drowns out the sound. Not to mention they’re super comfortable and the battery lasts me the entire day sometimes even 3 with continuous use. They’re easily washable as the ear pieces detach and they’re size friendly (for all my big headed friends, lol). Totally worth the purchase and almost a year in they still function just as they did the day I bought them.

Best headphones on the market. Very pricy but worth it

Amazing sound quality! Noise cancellation is a dreamland to use. Uber-comfortable. Everything I would expect from an Apple product!

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.

Love these airpods. Great noise cancellation and do not feel heavy after long use. This was definitely a worth and great investment.

Excellent product with exceptional quality and amazing sound. It was a great deal and excellent service. Thank you very much.

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.

I had the airpod pros for years and I was trying to decide if I needed the upgrade. While I didn’t need it, its been so worth it. The quality is great. The noise cancellation is even better. They are expensive but the value is there to make the price worth it.

The quality of this is a plus, but after a while, it can feel a little suffocating because of the true noise cancellation option.
