    I am absolutely thrilled with my Apple AirPods Pro Max. The quality of these headphones is simply unmatched. From the moment I took them out of the box, I could tell that they were a premium product. The build quality is fantastic, with a sturdy yet lightweight construction that feels incredibly comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. The sound quality is simply incredible. Every note and every beat is crystal clear, with a deep and immersive soundstage that truly transports you into the music. The noise cancelling is also top-notch, effectively blocking out any outside noise and allowing you to fully immerse yourself in your music or podcasts.

    Great Sound and Apple Integration

    Purchased on sale which is what finally caused me to buy and glad I did. Had no doubts on the quality; it’s an Apple product, but these feel very premium with no plastic. Sound quality is very high for iTunes tracks including Lossless, but particularly for Dolby Atmos songs which can be hit or miss, but come with a wider soundstage. These will not work with Hi-Res audio tracks, but trust that you won’t care to notice. The excellent sound is more obvious when listening to Dolby Atmos movies, so these headphones are great for home theater listening. Action movies will pop! AirPods Max are at the top of the consumer headphones space. I do think audiophiles must admit the sound is very good, but these are not for studio recording and that shouldn’t be an expectation. Sure, you can drop $1000 on some wired audiophile cans, but that’s not the market for these. These are very expensive consumer headphones for sure, but if you catch a sale, they will not disappoint.

    Amazing build quality and, despite their weight, pretty comfortable to wear. I enjoy using the dial for controlling playback and volume. It’s tactile and precise. Sound is astonishingly good for a first effort at proper wireless ANC headphones. Good bass, clear through the mids, and some top end sparkle. Definitely in the top end selection of Bluetooth ANC headphones. There are other options that have slightly more depth to their sound and clarity but they are far and few between, as well as costing at least as much. And, of course, airpods gain nice extra features with Apple devices - equalisation, automatic device pairing. So, why not 5 stars? Well, although very comfortable, they are heavy and do slip back on my head if I’m not sitting upright. Sometimes the automatic switching between audio on my iPad and on my iPhone is janky and doesn’t work without me intervening manually. They only have AAC and SBC audio codecs, so the best audio quality is only available on iOS devices. The bra case is a complete joke. Lightning wired input and charging only. And that price is still painful on the wallet. Spatial audio hasn’t proven to be a stunning improvement over any other headphones for me so far. There is limited content that supports it, and that is mainly on Apple TV+. The locking sound to your device screen is very effective but I haven’t noticed any amazing surround sound effects whilst watching movies. For reference, I tried Greyhound on Apple TV+, with Dolby Atmos and spatial audio on. It’s a movie full of explosions and audio effects - yes, there was some positioning of sources but not really convincing surround in my opinion. Overall, though, they’re pretty great if you are using Apple devices and I’d recommend them as one of the top choices for wireless ANC headphones.

    Cancellation is Amazing!

    Are they worth 550? If you have an iPhone yes. Android or anything else, maybe not. The iPhone will give you audio editing/tuning options that you will not find elsewhere. On the iPhone make sure you are updated to the latest iOS that help the phone truly recognize the headphones, and then update the firmware of the headset itself. I consider myself an audiophile, and when I try new headphones, the sound test I put them through is fairly simple, and I play 5 key songs of different genres that I would say have “hidden sounds” or instruments that cheaper headphones would not catch. These pass the test, and surpass the Bose and Sony headsets in separating instruments, the “soundstage” effect. If you are a person who can’t tell the difference in good headphones versus others, don’t waste your time, because you won’t be able to justify the reasoning for the pricing. The comfort is amazing, and I can wear these for 4 hours plus with no discomfort. They look great, and noise cancellation is amazing on these headphones.

    Sounds great, but some annoyances

    The good: They sound incredible. It feels like you’re at a concert surrounded by the music. The noise cancellation is unmatched, in my opinion, even by the Sony XM5s. The bad: The price is just not quite justified, even on sale. The case is so stupid. They don’t fold up so they can fit into a case, and the one provided is not very protective. It doesn’t make me feel safe putting these expensive headphones in my bag. Yeah, you can get one that’s more protective, but for the price tag you shouldn’t have to. It’s also pretty frustrating that the only cable you can use is lightning, so you’d have to buy another cable if you want wired listening for higher quality. Overall, the good mostly outweighs the bad, but it’s really up to personal preference to decide if you think it’s worth it for twice as much as other flagship wireless headphones. There are other great choices out there for a lot less.

    Amazing Sound paired with great durability. These have been tossed in my gym bag & work bag daily and I’m not always the most careful. They don’t even have scratches. Wouldn’t even question buying these again. Great deal

    Another great apple product. I pulled the trigger on these with the Black Friday sale. I am glad I did. They are amazing just like the AirPods Pro gen 2. I wish these had usb C charging other than that they are great. Again apple worked the magic with the Spatial Audio. I am very impressed with their sound for movies very cinema like experience with headphones. I have audiophile sennheiser and hifiman headsets for music these are good but not on that level. But some of the best headphones for movie lovers! Apples Spatial Audio is some of the best I have heard.

    One of the best headphones I've ever owned. I was holding out for the second generation, in hopes of a power button. When all they did was change the lighting port to USB-C, I grabbed a pair at a greatly reduced price. The latency rate is pretty good. Don't really notice a delay at all. Love these

    This was the best investment I had when it comes to headphones. From the details on the fit of the headphones to the sound and noise cancellation it’s great. Perfect for work outing. It stays on the ears while I move around as an athlete. Would recommend these headphones to anyone. It’s worth the price.

    I purchased the Apple + warranty with my new AirPods and waited over 4 days for delivery. Since they never arrived, the Best Buy associate had me pick them up at the store. Now my Apple + warranty that I paid $59.00 for is lost and neither Best Buy or Apple can correct. DON’T buy Apple products from Best Buy.
