Customer Ratings & Reviews

great product would most definitely recommend, great noise cancellation and great sound

The best accessory for listening to music with high quality. No doubt

Excellent sound and noise cancellation. Little heavy on the ear.

Great sounds and quality materials the sound is perfect and clear

The Quality of these headphones is unbelievable! The sound and silence mode is unreal. My dog was barking in front of me less than 4 feet away and I heard nothing!

Best headphones ever, this is my second time buying this headphones you can never go wrong

I am an avid user and loyal to the Sony XM4. They have been the best noise canceling super base mid and low range Bluetooth over the air headset that I have ever experienced….. until now. The Apple AirPod promax is by far the best quality Bluetooth and wired headphones I have ever experienced. Now with spatial audio the quality for all genres of music is exemplary. Granted They are heavier but due to the mesh headband which rests and distributes the weight so evenly you don’t even know you’re wearing them. The headband and ear cushions are replaceable and quality build is far superior to any competitor. Noise Cancellation is the best I have ever heard together with the nine microphones using these on teleconference is a pleasure. Watching movies whilst wearing these is comparable to my Bose surround system. I found a wonderful slim fitting highly protective case with auto shut off function on Amazon which completes the package

Great product noise cancellation is great as well not only is the product great so was the customer service helped me find the color I needed and helped me order it on line

Sounds good but is heavy and having to buy a separate cord for wired listening is peak apple nonsense.

I got this headphones out of curiosity mainly because a lot of articles said they sound fantastic and they weren't exaggerating, they really sounded great, probably one of the best sounding headphones I have ever tried even. These pair work great within Apple ecosystem but they may not be that good with outside Apple World so I would say if you are Apple products owner, this headphones are definitely for you.

exactly what i expected use them daily and they last also comfortable

Sound quality is beyond impressive. True noise cancellation!! Will buy another one!

Great sound and they feel so comfortable on your ears.

The noise cancellation was amazing. Comfortable fit.

Great headphones, the noise cancellation is a beauty.

Best sound quality and microphone I've ever used with headphones. Only four stars because the price, and lack of case (the case is more like a bra), is a bit insane.

Pricy, yes. The audio quality is fantastic though. You can find similar quality in other brands here too, but if you’re buying these, you are buying them because you’re married to the brand. They automatically connect to every Apple device I own. Spatial audio is great when you choose “fixed.” I was on the fence for months, but I’m very satisfied with the purchase.

Physical build is extraordinary! High quality albeit a bit too heavy for my liking...Sound quality is also very good. I am not a fan of the complex setup and features (no way to manually shut off the headphones)...I got these as a "Open Box-Excellent" but they already had been used and "Named" by a prior user who must have returned them immediately. Price is simply too high in actuality, but I will keep them anyway as I hate to return stuff once I have it.

All I can say is WOW!!! For a 1st generation, Apple pretty much hit this out of the park. If the price point was $400-$450, this would have easily gotten a 5 Star. There are a few cons that I want to point out on these. Price is the biggest con with these. I cannot justify paying $550 + Tax for a pair of headphones for a typical non audiophile user. As a normal consumer, $400 is pushing the upper limits for a pair of headphones, but because this is Apple, they priced these higher than normal because they can actually get away with it. The other cons are the case and not having a 3.5mm adapter if you want to plug it into an airplane or computer. First off, both of these are not deal breakers for me, it would have been nice for them to include a 3.5mm jack, but being that it's Apple, they will find any way they can to squeeze consumers for every last penny. The case does what it needs to for the most part. I am concerned that the mesh part of the head band is not protected at all since that's the most vulnerable part. But, this will lead 3rd parties to come up with a protective sleeve or cover for it. The AirPods Max are heavier than the competition due to the aluminum & stainless steel material used here. Apple did not cut corners when they designed this and I am glad because they do not look or feel cheap at all. Starting to see why they charged $550. They look classy in a throwback kind of way. The ear cups and head band don't protrude out and pretty much follows the curvature of your head. Despite it being heavier, the mesh band does a great job at spreading the weight out as to not develop any pain at the crown of my head. The clamping design on the ear cups will bear most of the weight. The ear cushions are nice and soft and I did not feel my ears getting hot or sticky like the leatherette ear cups on the competitions. Even though I didn't feel any pain on the crown after hours of usage, I did notice that my neck was a little sore. If that's the case, you can just lie down or lean your head back on to a pillow or something. As for the sound, these are the best sounding headphones I have owned. My go to prior to this was the B&W PX7's. I really like the sound on these because it was balanced and clean without too much bass to muddy up the sound. The Sony XM4's would be great if they were the only headphones on earth, but they are not and I am not too much of a fan of their sound signature. I feel they are a little too warm and bass heavy that muddies up the mid's and highs for me. They too also got hot after wearing for a while. The AirPods Max are well balanced with just the enough bass to give the song a little life. Although, I did wish there was a little bit more sub-bass for the rumble effect. But all in all, the sound on these are so clean and does not distort even at max level. The sound separation are so great that I am able to hear more instruments on these than any other headphones I've tried. If you have an iPhone, you can go in and change the settings around to boost the soft sounds. You can do this by going into Settings/Accessories/Audio/Visual/Headphone Accommodations. I have my set at Balanced Tone and Moderate. If you have the money to spend and in the Apple eco-system, these will be the best money spent for your ears. Just keep in mind that out of the box, they might not sound great, but after some burn in time, you will start to appreciate what Apple has done with these.

Potion these from my brother for Christmas. He was more than grateful to receive them. They look really nice on.
