    This headphone is awesome. It has good sound quality and durable material. The headphone is comfortable, and the battery life is excellent. Additionally, the connectivity in the Apple ecosystem is amazing. The worst part is the Lightning charger instead of USB-C.

    Sound quality is really good, if you have bigger ears they will get pinched between the cuffs and your head which can be little painful, Also they are a little heavy which can lead to fatigue in the neck. The battery life does last a long time, but they will die very quickly in the cover case.

    Worth The Money

    The headphones look and feel great. Yes, they’re heavier than the Sonys, yet don’t bother me and can wear them for long periods of time. The base is there, however if you’re looking for headphones to workout in with a strong base the Sony ones would be a better fit. Although the sound is crispier and clearer than the Sonys. I haven’t had any problems with the maxes, I love them definitely one of my favourites purchases.

    Absolutely love them. Best sound quality headphones I've ever had and ease of use is spectacular. I can wear these for hours comfortably, even with the weight. But after 5 or so hours, they do start to get uncomfortable. Wearing them while working sucks because they are very warm. You can definitely get better quality wired headphones for a similar price or cheaper, but if wireless is what you need then these are a great choice.

    What a feel you get when you hold these in your hand and put them on your ears. They’re really what they are advertised. Quality has held well over these years. Battery life barely can tell they’re almost two years old. I love them! Ease of use and sound it’s perfect: only downside-I worry if they’d fall of if I were to make a sudden move, but they haven’t yet.

    I got these last week. They have amazing quality, packaging and even comes with a fast charger. The noise cancellation is definitely up to par with modern technology. It also allows spatial audio which allows you to follow which ever way your ears go. The comfortability on the item it sled is amazing. You can play sports of your choice with them on and even full sprint without them flying off your ear. Overall it’s an amazing item you should get.

    One of the best headphones

    One of the best headphones out there and I can highly recommend them if you’re looking for something cool and comfortable to use. I really like the metallic finish, battery life and sound quality. Also you are able to use them for a full day of meetings without worrying about battery life and you’re head feeling exhausted wearing them. My concerns would be that the noise cancelling function is a bit weak compared to inear headphones like even earbuds pros and they are little bit too quiet for my taste even when full volume. Overall very good headphones if you don’t mind the flaws I mentioned above and really high price.

    Noise cancellation & Quality

    I would highly recommend these for quite a few reasons but I’ll keep it kinda simple, I bought these headphones to work with heavy machinery prior to using them I just used earplugs but after taking them to work and using them to block the noise instead I don’t need earplugs any more, the noise canceling is amazing to say the least and the audio isn’t any different and the wired connection option works great too to make things sound even more crisp. I love these and don’t ever regret purchasing them.

    The Apple AirPods Max are a great pair of headphones that offer excellent sound quality, active noise cancellation, and comfortable fit. The intuitive controls, long battery life, and clear sound make these headphones worth the premium price tag. The AirPods Max are also incredibly versatile, with support for many audio formats and a vast array of compatible devices. Overall, the AirPods Max are a great choice for anyone looking for high-quality audio in a stylish, comfortable package.

    We bought these for our son. He is a freshman in college and needed new headphones. These have excellent noise canceling and clear sound. They are a little heavier than other headphones. And he doesn’t like that you can’t turn them off. They wake up when you put them on but he wears them on his head all the time. And the stay on. They do have great battery life.

    This is my first pair of noise cancellation headphones, and i was shook when i put it in that mode! I could barely hear anything but the sound from the headphones, it was amazing. They fit comfortably over my ears, and i gave a rather large head. The sound quality is great too, but im also new to good quality headphones. Two cons, easily slides back and forth on my due to weight and had to buy a separate carrying case for protection, which isnt 100% necessary but for peace of mind since the provided one isnt the most protective. Would reccomend. I personally bought becasue of friends testimonials and for the aesthetic.

    First I want to say that the audio quality is good. It's great. It's not mind-blowing like many youtuber hype it to be, but you will be happy with it. Apple make product that will satisfy 80-90% of the customer and it is the case here. At least in the sound quality department. I would say I like this APM better than my $400 set up (schitt stack + Sennheiser HD6xx) because the sound profile here is fun to listen to. For listening purpose, you should go for a pair with a "fun" profile like this instead of the boring flat curve stuffs. The bass is great: it is tight, it is deep, and it is well-separated from the rest, like using a pair of speaker with a separate subwoofer. That said the XM-4 vs this one is very close and can ultimately be tied to preference in tuning. This one is "safer": the treble is not as bright so it will work for more types of songs. I prefer the APM by a tiny little amount in the Sound department That being said, this is a first gen Apple product: there are some flaws with it that is not highlighted by youtube reviewers. The practicality of this pair is poor. It is good for listening at home, not actually very good to use on a long flight. Here's why: 1: It's bulky and it doesn't fold. The carrying case is useless. It's gonna take so much space in your carry on. The Sony XM-4 beat it hands down here. Most people would be happier carrying the XM-4 on a plane than this. 2. It is uncomfortable for me after: 30 mins. It hurts my head. At first i thought it was the clamping force being too strong. So I screeched it out like some people on the internet did. It got more comfortable for the first 30 mins, then it still hurt. Turns out the cushion do not have the appropriate density, so after 30mins it collapse to nothing and the metal ring of the ear cup pressed on my head and that metal ring is very hard and edgy. Another negative for the APM making it not the ideal choice for carrying to an airplane. 3. Noise cancelling: at this point it is no longer relevant since this pair is only good for listening at home. Bose, Sony, APM will all do fine when you use at home in term of noise cancelling. You would not care. So to sum it up: it is a joy to listen to, but can't be enjoyed for too long. Even without the price difference, the XM4 is a strong competitor for it on the basis of practicality and comfortability alone. This APM can auto-eq while for the XM4 you may want to make use of the EQ functionality and they would be very close (like Coke vs Pepsi). This APM would be a no brainer if the price drop by $100 and they address the comfortability issue. The bulky and carrying issue can be lived with but the comfortability is a hard sell to many people.

    A very nice pair of over ear headphones, high quality product from Apple. Outstanding noise cancellation feature, spatial audio and transparency mode. The sleek design is very appealing. However I decide to return the item to Best Buy, the weight is a bit on the heavy side, I cannot wear it over half hour, feeling painful of my neck. Hope apple can improve this aspect in its next generation headphones.

    Airpod pros are great but nothing beats a good pair of over the ear headphones. The sound is amazing, the noise cancelling is the best I have used so far and the confort is excellent. I wear these everyday for about 2 hours and they never hurt my head or cause any pain. To be fair though, they are heavier than I would like and. That is probably the biggest downside to these. Overall great product and if you can get them on sale, even better.

    As title says, this is one of the best sets of headphones I've owned. Ease of use universally is great– a little difficult to get working on a Windows computer at times, but that's to be expected. The sound quality is great, and with transparency on, I often forget I'm even wearing these. The ease of use is quite simple and battery life lasts anywhere from 2 days to a week depending on how often they're used..

    My daughter loves using these!! Super cute color and sound quality is great. She loves using these as the air pods don’t always fit in her ears the best. She also loves the sound proof option when on the school bus. Now I need to get myself a pair!
