    I’ll Wait For 2nd Generation AirPod Max ;)

    Great sound quality && amazing base however the noise cancellation was NOT as good as AirPod Pros (which I already have). So I returned these and grabbed the AirPod Pros 2nd Gen.

    Heavy, ill-fitting, meh sound

    I got these for working out and they are so heavy that it felt like my head was doing the weightlifting. I have a regular-size head but they don't adjust to a snug-enough fit - they actually fell off when I did bench presses. The headphone pieces were so big they rested (heavily) on my jawbone and now I have aches. The sound was just OK - my old Skullcandy pair has equivalent sound quality (and they fit better).

    After owning a year I would never recommend

    In the first month I would rate this 5 stars. After owning for a year I give 1 star. This is the most unreliable and difficult product Apple offers. It claims to update and connect 'automatically' it doesn't. This is not like other products - the iPod Pros are excellent. The Max should be discontinued.

    Could be so amazing... if they lasted

    The AirPods Max are probably the best headphones I've used, but unfortunately they break for seemingly no reason, and Apple is facing a lawsuit due to the design of the headphones causing condensation to build up inside the headphones. Mine failed completely outside of warranty -- I hoped it was just due to the battery not charging, but during a Genius Bar appointment they told me that the only option would be to purchase a new pair, or to pay $299 (plus tax)! to attempt to repair them -- they wouldn't even replace them for that fee, they will only charge that fee upfront to send them to attempt a repair... and if they can't repair for whatever reason (they couldn't tell me why that would happen or the chances that could happen) then I'm out ~$325 and would still have to buy a new set. This is completely unacceptable and ridiculous especially for Apple. I *strongly* suggest choosing a competing product instead.

    Do not buy Open Box models ever

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I can’t express this enough: do not buy an Open Box unit of any Apple product. I learned this the hard way - I purchased these AirPod Max Open Box (Excellent) and they arrived still linked to the previous owner’s iCloud account. This means the original owner received an alert when I tried to pair them, showing them my exact location. This is not something that can be undone by Best Buy or Apple, and if you purchased the headphones on sale like I did, you apparently cannot exchange them for a non defective unit without paying the difference. One of my worst buying experiences in recent memory.

    Good for music. Not too good for calls, audio drops and static during calls, both cellular and FaceTime calls are not that great

    Please don't buy these

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Sound quality is good, but that's it. The software is buggy, insane battery drain, and no off button. Everytime I pick these up, they're dead. I have to charge each time I want to listen to anything no matter how short. Don't buy these, please. I know you're a cute apple person and they fit your strange economic focused identity, but these are just awful.

    Bought for my daughter for christmas. She seems to like them. They are a bit pricy. Probably wouldn't buy for myself at this price range.

    They suck

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    They suck, first of all they are too heavy to do anything. Second If you have a small head, when walking the music cuts out every step you take. Also they are not water proof so you cant run with them because your ears get sweaty wearing them.

    Don’t waste your money on these.

    We have had to replace multiple sets of these headphones. They were $600 and over time they won’t connect to any Apple device. I love Apple products, but these are overpriced garbage. Don’t spend the money on these headphones.

    Same thing with the mac pro wheels..

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Apple Wants to retain this image or façade of "We are a luxury brand" They achieved that by Making a bunch of wheel for a computer $699.00. Now did the same trick with the headset. Dont get me wrong its a good build quality but the price. That ugly price. Only thing they did was turn most customers away from the headset in search for other ones like the XM3 or Bose that only more then half as much

    $550 garbage

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I’ve had these for almost 2 years. Nothings but problems. They constantly connect, disconnect and reconnect. I can’t listen to a 3 minute song without them disconnecting/reconnecting at least 10 times. It’s very common for one of the speakers to just stop working. The button & crown button work 50% of the time. Ohhhh…. Here’s a dumb thing…. When around others like on a subway or airplane, they disconnect from me and try to connect with other Apple devices. One guy on a plane got so frustrated that he stopped using HIS iPhone because MY Airpods wouldn’t leave him alone. I have a pair of $60 ANC headphones from Amazon that work much better. Those are almost 5 years old and work perfectly. These $550 Apple Airpods Max? Garbage from day one. Repared and replaced by Apple but still garbage.
