Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend. This is what he had to say “these headphones are great! I been eyeballing these for a while. the sound is great it’s noise cancelling and the color is nice. The battery quality lasts a long time and it was pretty easy to connect to my iPhone

Great product. I always love Apple and their seamless connectivity. They are a little heavy on the head but I don’t wear them on long flights or all day.

These headphones are light and comfy to wear. They also have a long lasting battery. I was able to listen to music all day from one full charge. The noise cancellation is fantastic too! I live in NYC and for it to be able to cancel all the noise in the city is unreal! Even though the price is a bit expensive, the quality makes up for that. I recommend them to all who want to stay in the Apple ecosystem.

The AirPods Max are outstanding—comfort, sound quality, and noise cancellation are all top-notch. The audio is crisp and immersive, and the spatial sound feature makes movies and music feel incredible. They’re also surprisingly comfortable for long listening sessions. Definitely worth the investment if you want premium headphones.

I have to say I was really thinking of buying these for a while and eventually bought them. I couldn’t be happier. They sound amazing first of all. The highs, mids and bass sound very crisp and clean. With Spotify equalizer these can be adjusted. I don’t use any other music service so I can’t speak on that. The noise cancellation in my opinion is better than my Sony xm5 headphones and transparency is also better than Sony in my use. Build is superb but on the heavy side a bit, but I really love the build of them a feel so I’m willing to forgive the bit of heaviness. They can be easily worn in my experience for a couple hours before fatigue sets in. Earcups are nice and large and encompass by big ears. I personally bought these over the usbc version as these are exactly the same and cheaper.

Super sleek, long battery life, take it to the gym everyday. Little big but overall solid headphones

I f you do not have any Apple products I would not recommend because many features only work on Apple devices Pros 1. Pair flawlessly with Apple products 2. Noise cancellation is great 3. Exceptional call quality without a microphone arm 4. Most comfortable headphones I’ve had for long periods of use 5. Transparency mode is like you’re not wearing headphones 6. The control knob and bottom provides great feedback. I prefer these to touch controls without haptic feedback. Cons 1. They can’t automatically switch between a pc and iPhone 2. The case makes no sense. I am always worried that a pen or something will get stuck through the mesh when they are in my backpack 3. They are charged with a lightning port. 4. Expensive 5. The battery percentage does not display on a pc laptop Undetermined The spatial sound sometimes seems fake

Great quality and sound! Very comfortable and super stylish! Long battery life as well.

The Apple AirPods Max combine stunning design, exceptional sound quality, and comfortable fit to create a premium listening experience that is unmatched in the market. While they come with a premium price tag, the investment is worth it for those who prioritize both style and substance in their audio accessories.

they make doing loud chores like vacuuming and dishes easier with the noise canceling. for me they aren’t very snug on the head but my friend says they are and she needs to “stretch ‘em” out so i guess that kind of varies but they are adjustable. i love wearing them for everything i find very little long term discomfort great charge life

Beautiful colors, Very comfortable. Sound is excellent. Battery lasts a very long time. Great for watching movies. Cancels out all the background noise.

The AirPod Max’s have a great sound quality compaired to other wireless headphones. They are comfortable to wear. The ear cups fit over the ears well. If i had one negative thing to say about these headphones: You can feel the compression on your head, but once you get lost in the audio quality, you dont notice the heaviness of the headphones.

I have been looking for good quality noise cancelling headphones to help me manage my hypersensitivities to sound. These have really good specs that help: noise cancelling function, transparency mode (that modulates sudden loud noises and mutes them down for you, even if you had noise cancelling turned off), a really good microphone for calls etc, and an incredibly durable frame with replaceable parts. The biggest downside I have found is that condensation builds inside of the headset very quickly. The headphones are not water resistant in any way, so this is troublesome if you have to wear for any length of time. If you remove the ear pad, the condensation looks like shiny black things around the components. The first time I saw it, I thought it may be some kind of adhesive. The common "fixes" found online are to avoid temperature disparities to prevent the metal casing from being a different temperature than the environment, don't use in humid places, and to let them dry out often. This basically means no one in any location can use them. Anywhere. Or wear them for anything more than 15-20 minutes at a go. I live in Alaska. Even used only inside, there are huge temperature differences that create condensation. The environment here is very dry, so that isn't a factor. Also, if you have a warm noggin, it'll condense. This is the biggest problem these headphones seem to have and I sincerely hope Apple makes them at least water resistant in the future because the build itself otherwise is a solid 10/10. The sound is also reaaaaally good for even those who are a bit more into how music sounds, let alone the average person's music needs. ALSO: these were purchased open-box from Best Buy. The condition was exactly as marked on the box. But they did have someone else paired to them (In their iCloud) and it wasn't removed prior to my purchasing them. I had to look up how to remove them from someone's account before I could pair them to my own setup. I'd recommend Best Buy look at that for other open-box resold items but beyond that, the experience and cost was great.

This is my first experience with these Apple - AirPods Max. They have the Lightning port, so I save a few bucks, but I’m telling ya, these sound so amazing! They’re built really good and feel extremely comfortable and yet super stable. I really love the noise cancellation option at just a simple tap of the button. I still have a set of 2nd gen air pods that’ve been through the washing machine a couple times, but I’m seriously enjoying some music, these AirPods Max are my go to! Definitely worth the money. Highly recommended!

The sound quality in these headphones is obviously impeccable. The transparency mode is better than any other headphone I've used. Integration/transition with Apple products (macbook pro, iPhone, and Apple TV) seemed flawless. But dangit they're so heavy. I tried wearing these throughout my workday for a few days (I'm mostly at my desk the majority of the day), and found myself taking them off to stretch my neck and shoulders more than just a few times. I got so uncomfortable at one point that I just took them off and stopped listening to music altogether. The case is also kind of awkward and doesn't really make you feel 'secure' about setting them down or putting them in your bag. The audio quality in these headphones is insane, but I feel like if you're paying $500+ for headphones, they need to be nearly perfect.

I LOVE these headphones! For starters, the sound quality is phenomenal! I also love the fact that the noise-canceling feature is a lifesaver, that completely blocks out the noisy air nozzles on airplanes and super-loud A/C units in hotel rooms. (Also blocks the sound of extra-loud snoring spouses, a huge plus!). I am so glad I got these! They can go for a REALLY long time before needing to be recharged, they are comfortable, and they perfectly match my blue iPhone and Apple Watch. Love, Love, LOVE!!!

The promax headphones out did the beats headphones I had. I like the sound quality and they don't hurt my ears after extended use.

I went back and forth on these for a year before I bought them. I decided to give them a shot when they were on sale for $430. I bought them with the very idea that I might return them. A month later...I love them. If you are in the Apple Ecosystem...they are awesome. Transparency and Noise Cancellation modes are next level. They are better than the AirPods Pro in that regard. BUT. I would not wear them on the move while walking in the city. I would be afraid I would get mugged. They stand out. I would not wear them while going for a run. Too heavy. Frankly...between these and the pros are better overall. I use them while I work at my desk and when I want to watch a movie by myself. They sound AMAZING. Even at $430...I feel like they were about $100 more than I wanted to pay. But they are SO NICE.

Going into this purchase, I had read reviews saying that it’s not worth the price, is too heavy, etc. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. Yes, just for headphones it is expensive. But if you don’t already own a DAC and Amp, getting budget friendly audiophile approved ones plus headphones will easily meet or exceed this budget. The headphones are very light compared to my wood planars. I honestly don’t really notice them. If you have low end or plastic headphones they will be heavier. Yes, you can’t hook these up to your own DAC, making these a bit limited. But it comes with a mic, transparency and noise cancel, wireless, etc. I think it definitely makes up for any shortcomings and makes the price worth it. They’ve been called glorified Airpod Pros, and I have to say they sound a lot better than what that implies. Very full sound. I also like that they have better noise cancellation due to the added passive ability from the metal cups. Also, they’re pink and match my Red, er, Pink iMac.

The sound quality is great. It take a little getting used to the fit, and the noise canceling feature doesn’t cancel all noises, but they are much better than my previous headphones. The battery life is more than enough. They charge up very quickly and connect to my iPhone immediately without any issues.
