    The AirPods Max are the best headphones I've ever owned. Their premium build, incredible sound quality, and active noise cancellation create an unmatched audio experience. The spatial audio feature immerses you in every song, movie, or call. Worth every penny for audiophiles and casual listeners alike!

    Good overall sound quality and excellent battery life. A little on the heavy side, but the carry case is a complete joke.

    They are cute and comfortable and audio is great. I wish the headband didn’t slide so much though. I’m constantly having to “tighten” them back up, which ends up being just pushing the headphones into the headband - there’s no way to lock your band in place. It’s not a huge deal but if you plan on doing lots of movement with them on, you’ll have to continue adjust. Other than that, I love them.

    I am an audiophile and have sold and listened to system that were over a million dollars, I left that at its peak the late 90 and 2000's. So these are hands down the best Bluetooth headphones I have ever heard. I bought 3 pair of them, me, my husband, and best friend from Bestbuy and had never heard thm before I bought them and I was worried about them not stacking up and being not to my expectations. So the sound, it is amazing I hear the full spectrum of sound 20hz to 20000hz and perhaps above for imaging. They have good flat sound where the bass is not blaring and distorting and fake or just non-existent, that being said they do have some really good bass, they are the full range of sound with good mids and highs too. I was impressed how loud they can go up to and never distort. Also one of my other favorite feature on how fast they charge 5 min and they are up to 50% its really awesome and amazing. So even if you use them you could take a quick break and they are redy to listen for a few hours more. Apple music and TIdal sound great in FLAC. I have given lots of gift but truly these are yhe best gift I ever gave my husband he uses them all the time and every day, he tend to get something as a gift and never really used it, thats the complete opposite with these maybe his Iphone was another good gift to him. The quality is really good with the aluminum ear cabinet its light and rigid which is what you want, it also uses a large speaker so it can produce the lows, the sound isolation is really cool and works really well, press the button and the outside sound nearly disappears, press it again and you can hear a person trying to talk with you really well, and why does that happen when your listening to lol. Press it again and you are back to isolation. Its so easy to pair you just put them on and they are already showing up on the ihone screen which is so cool and they move right over if I want to listen to my Ipad or even move to my macbook pro, The spacial audio sounds great albeit not really having all the speaker in the headphones to fully reproduce that but that is probably to come soon I imagine. They are comfortable to wear for hours which is so important. There is so much more but I definely recommend them, its some if the best monies I spent on electronics, I would tell you if you are on the fence just buy them you won’t be sorry.

    The Apple AirPods Max are nothing short of a game-changer in the world of audio technology. From the moment I unboxed them, I was impressed by the premium build quality and sleek design. The ear cups are incredibly comfortable, making them perfect for long listening sessions without any discomfort. The sound quality is outstanding, with rich, immersive audio that brings every note to life. The active noise cancellation feature is truly remarkable; it blocks out ambient noise effectively, allowing me to fully immerse myself in my music or podcasts. Switching to transparency mode is seamless, making it easy to engage with my surroundings when needed. The battery life is impressive, lasting for hours on a single charge, and the quick charge feature is a lifesaver when I'm in a hurry. The integration with Apple devices is seamless, allowing for easy pairing and access to features like spatial audio, which enhances the listening experience even further. Overall, the Apple AirPods Max are an investment worth making for anyone serious about sound quality and comfort. Highly recommended!

    The AirPods Max are an exceptional pair of headphones that redefine the audio experience. The sound quality is absolutely stunning, with crystal-clear highs, rich mids, and deep bass, making them perfect for everything from music to podcasts to movies. The active noise cancellation (ANC) is top-tier, effectively blocking out external sounds, creating a truly immersive experience. Comfort is another standout feature — the breathable knit mesh canopy and memory foam ear cups feel luxurious and ensure a perfect fit, even during extended listening sessions. The design is sleek and premium, and the build quality is solid, making the AirPods Max feel like a high-end product. The spatial audio and dynamic head tracking add a cinematic dimension to your audio, especially when watching movies or playing games. Additionally, the battery life is impressive, offering up to 20 hours of continuous playback with ANC and spatial audio on. Overall, the AirPods Max are a premium choice for audiophiles looking for unmatched sound quality, comfort, and design.

    We have had very few devices that, within seconds, really took our breath away and made us want to purchase it within minutes. They have performed better for us and given great sound quality and user experience, highly recommend.

    Best Headphones for Work and Travel

    Got these for advanced noise cancelling and comfort for long flights and work calls. The product did not disappoint. Very sturdy build and seamless pairing and transfer/handoff to my other Apple devices. They provide FULL coverage for the entire ear, and are large enough to accommodate larger ear sizes which is key for having a good seal for noise cancellation and solid bass. Charging is reasonably fast and the battery life will definitely get you through a day of flying or conference calls with no need to be charged. I do recommend using the magnetic case when not in use because they can sometimes not go to sleep and drain overnight, so using that case is an important factor. The fit on my head is super comfy, yet very secure. Apple knew how to design soft and comfortable ear pads. I got the older model on an open box deal and love it regardless. If you don't mind lightning charging over USB-C, there is not much difference between the second generation and the first, so if you are on the fence, just get the older one for less money.

    I love these earphones. Are they expensive? Yes. But if you live with people who are not quiet or not in a quiet area and need to focus, the noise cancellation on it is amazing. They are very comfortable and I wear them for hours.

    The sound quality, build quality, and comfort of these headphones really blew me away. I thought they were going to be overpriced cans but I was so wrong. These are the best over-the-ear headphones that I’ve ever owned. They outclass the Sony XM3’s and the V-Moda Crossfade Wireless Bluetooth headphones by a mile.

    I had the Sony XM5 headphones prior and let me tell y’all… these are a hundred times better! They’re perfect. Sound is as clear as day, noise cancellation blocks out everything, and the quality overall is amazing. It’s worth the money in my opinion.

    Honestly was shocked at the quality of the ability to drown out all outside noise while music is playing. Even without music playing, it does a really good job with the noise cancelling, my wife actually has sensory issues and she had to fly by herself this past weekend and was DREADING it but she said she wore these the entire weekend and had ZERO issues what so ever. Now let’s talk about the quality, these headphones do have really good sound quality and really brings out the all the instruments in songs. Sometimes I do wish they would go just a little louder but I know that apple just did that so they wouldn’t damage your ears. These headphones do actually show if the music volume is harmful or not to your ears

    I absolutely loved these when I first got them. Everything was perfect, sound quality, material and all were top tier. Now not even a full 6 months later, I am starting to feel a little disappointed. The connection is going in and out and they just don't have the same feel that they did in the beginning. Don't get me wrong, I still think these are some of the best quality headphones, I just think they need to fix the small issues. I will definitely be buying them again once they do!
