Great sound and style. Smooth connectivity and long battery life

For listening to music, watching tv or talking on the phone, these are top tier. You wont second guess the sound quality - it is obvious how good it sounds! Comfy too. Love the noise cancellation- way better than the airpods pro. If you have an iphone, dont forget to switch your Apple Music settings to Loseless Audio. It makes music sound even better. Pricey but worth it. Lastly, you can have a wired connection with these via lightening but this is apparently not possible with the usb-c version of the maxes

They sound super incredible. I've been using them for two months now and they are the best thing I've ever bought.

I have twin girls and had to purchase 2 pairs. I was hesitant spending $550 per headset but can tell you it was worth it. The sound is crisp and the noise cancellation is excellent. My girls love them and use them everyday … even for homework.

Based on quality sound, lightweight and comfortability.

Love the size, color and sound. Not easy to carry around

Good headphones. The loudest level is still reasonable for the people around

Its just a matter of team before Beats is fully phased out since no one buys them anymore. These AirPod Max have stolen the spotlight. They are very steep in price, but the build quality and sound that comes out of these, makes it worth it. Aside from the weight, the 9 microphones make these feel like you don't have them on - voices/outside sounds are that clear. If you wear glasses, these will hurt after a while from the pressure. After using these for a couple months (without glasses on), they don't hurt when I use them anymore. I guess I just have to position them a certain way where it doesn't make my head hurt. Do not workout in these since they are not water or sweat proof. If you do use them for the gym buy AppleCare so you can get a quick replacement if they stop working. The "bra" that the headphones come with is absolute junk. I'm surprised apple did not come up with a better solution. There are many sleep docks online that you can get for these and I do suggest you do that. Not only for ease of use but so you don't have use the original case and so you don't have to charge these every 1.5 days. With the sleep dock, I charge my headphone to 100% over the weekend, and by Friday, they are close to 10% left. The sad part is these are still hard to find unless you pay full price at the Apple Store. I definitely recommend these headphones especially if they are at a discount.

The Apple AirPods Max are an excellent choice for users seeking high-quality sound, effective noise cancellation, and seamless integration with Apple devices. While they come with a premium price tag and some limitations, their performance and features make them a compelling option for those within the Apple ecosystem.

GREAT HEADPHONES VERY COMFORTABLE TAD BIT HEAVY!!!!!!

I am a bit of a geek when it comes to headphones. And the same holds true for Apple products. I have owned a pair if AirPods Pro true wireless headphones and was impressed with their innovative and simple operation but had to part with them as they did not fit well and would not stay in my ears or form a tight seal in my ear canals. The high price of the AirPods Max over ear cans really put me off the notion of buying them. And the fact that they only work with the Apple AAC Bluetooth codec, or with the lower standard SBC Bluetooth codec seemed to make the price-to-value gap even more pronounced. Last night I picked up a pair of blue AirPods Max at my local BestBuy and am completely sold on them. What changed my mind? They were on sale at what I felt to be a more reasonable price. And Apple just released its public beta version of TVoS 15 for the Apple TV 4K product which features Apple’s spatial audio with head tracking capability. Spatial Audio enabled video via Apple has been available since last fall on the iPhone and iPad. But not on Apple TV 4K. And it is also coming to the Mac very shortly, More and more Spatial Audio content - video and audio - is being added as well. Spatial Audio for Apple Music debuted earlier this month. Watching TV last night streaming “The Tomorrow War” on Amazon Prime Video via Apple TV beta Software update was a phenomenal experience with the AirPods Max. The immersive multi-channel like effect with directional tracking is crazy good. Apple TV allows you to pair two Bluetooth devices so two can watch together. AirPods Pro will also work with Apple TV 4K and spatial audio. But what about listening to music? I stream a lot of music and have been testing out various tracks on Tidal, Amazon Prime Music, and Apple Music, to rave results. I am not talking about lossless quality tracks but solid hi-fi tracks and spatial audio tracks and am super impressed with the clarity and quality of the audio. Do your own research by all means but I am sold on these. The versatility, excellent fit and finish, funky design, and ease of use across all devices is a win. I am hoping pricing will continue to ease on these as volume sales increase and Apple fully delivers on its device and content transformation plans.

I think it should take a lot to get a real 5-star product review, and most of the time Apple can be close (depending on how much of their stuff you have to integrate with). I have and love the AirPod Pros for day-to-day with calls, music, audiobooks, and recently been using them on planes for work commuting more and more as the noise canceling is pretty good. I got these because they were on sale and my old pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 (which I loved) were failing, so I figured I would buy these and worst case exchange for Sony headphones if these weren't worth the premium. I watched a lot of reviews, MKBHD had a review and I thought it seemed oversold on sound quality compared to what I thought was really good with the Sony options always, and I was initially underwhelmed and worried I would end up exchanging. Then I let them sit for a bit and settled in and used them for a day or two for my calls/video conferencing and music. I started to realize how much clarity I got without really losing anything. Instead of getting that punchy bass everywhere, you get bass that really acts as emphasis. Vocals are crystal clear. Mic quality is excellent. Comfort wise it is great over long periods. Noise canceling is at least as good (honestly seems better) than other headests I've had. Ambient mode is way better and doesn't have that harsh sound. Only knock on it is if you're doing anything active with them on I feel like the mesh cups do tend to absorb a bit more. The plastic backing makes it a little hard to clean but not impossible. They DO sell replacement ones, so I guess in the long run if it gets bad, it's replaceable. I do wonder the same about the headband material if it will get gross or stretched, but these first few weeks it's so comfortable I find reasons to reach for this headset over listening on other devices, just because I am liking it that much!

These things sound amazing for blue tooth headphones. Very comfortable.

Great for classical and jazz music. They fit me great the weight doesn’t bother me at all. One of my best accessory purchases.

I have been using my max’s for almost a year now and I still love them and use them constantly.I gave it 4 stars though because i do think they could be better. Pros: Love the noise cancelling it works great, sound quality is also amazing, buttons are easy to use and access when you are wearing them. Cons: could be a bit more comfortable. I work from home so I wear them sometimes for hours and they do tend to get a bit uncomfortable after a while. I have slightly larger ears and piercings so sometimes it gets uncomfortable. the adjustable straps are nice but after a year they dont really stay tight they loosen and then slowly start to fall forward. It also gets pretty hot and sweaty after a while even with silicone covers I bought. Overall: Love the sound,quality and battery life but could be a bit more comfortable-will definitely get anither pair if they will upgrade them

Outstanding headphones best i have ever had price is a bit high but having said that you pay for quality.

Great sound No volume not impressed for the money not impressed at all it should blow me away for what it costs.

Amazing sound quality! Noise cancellation is a dreamland to use. Uber-comfortable. Everything I would expect from an Apple product!

Best headphones on the market. Very pricy but worth it

I debating buying these for about a year before actually purchasing them and let me tell you… I am beyond happy with them. As far as battery life and connectivity they are absolutely flawless. The audio quality is just absolutely out of this world! Exactly what i had expected if not better! The unboxing bit of it of course feels like any other apple product and it felt rather luxurious unwrapping such gorgeous headphones. Now for my FAVORITE part, the options for noise cancellation and transparency modes are insane! Theres an option that almost makes my hearing better, it amplifies the audio outside of the headphones and can be really helpful when youd like to listen to music but still have to interact with others. I also really enjoy this feature for the feeling of safety in public with them! One of the things that originally deterred me from buying them was a review i saw where they commented on the weight. The weight is not too heavy, but you can tell theyre durable. I think these are perfect for anyone between the range of everyday commuter to people that need accommodations while in public. I could not recommend these enough. If i could spend the rest of my life with one piece of tech, itd be these.
