    AirPods Max offer stunning sound, premium design, and great ANC, but come at steep price unless you get it on sale. They can be a bit cumbersome.

    The AirPods Max are outstanding—comfort, sound quality, and noise cancellation are all top-notch. The audio is crisp and immersive, and the spatial sound feature makes movies and music feel incredible. They’re also surprisingly comfortable for long listening sessions. Definitely worth the investment if you want premium headphones.

    Love this color and how sleek the look is. I have very sensitive hearing with causes me to have to go to the doctor a lot - these help me block out the noise without causing any damage to my hearing like other headphones might which is a huge plus!

    In the world of audio devices, Apple's green headphones have set a new standard for both style and performance. These headphones are not just a tech accessory but a fashion statement, thanks to their vibrant green color and sleek design. The hue is striking yet tastefully chosen, complementing a wide range of personal styles and preferences. But what truly sets these headphones apart is their unparalleled noise cancellation feature. It's not an overstatement to say that they deliver a 10/10 experience. Whether you're in a bustling cafe, navigating a noisy street, or just at home seeking solace from everyday sounds, these headphones create a sanctuary of sound. The active noise cancellation is so effective that it feels like stepping into a quiet room, even in the most chaotic environments. The sound quality is equally impressive. The audio is crisp, clear, and balanced

    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

    I use the AirPods Max almost daily for studying, traveling, and general everyday use, and they’ve been excellent. The sound quality is very clear and balanced, and the noise cancellation makes a huge difference when I’m in busy places or trying to focus. It helps me lock in while studying and enjoy music without distractions. They’re comfortable enough to wear for long periods, including during flights or long study sessions. Transparency mode is also really useful when I need to stay aware of my surroundings. I even use them lightly at the gym, and they stay secure and perform well. Overall, they feel premium, sound great, and fit smoothly into my daily routine. I’m very satisfied with them.

    I love my AirPods Max! They are comfortable to wear and so easy to connect to all my other Apple products. The noise cancelling makes the annoying droning on airplanes disappear, so I don’t feel quite so exhausted by the end of even a long flight.

    I was very skeptical about these headphones because of the price point. I originally started with the Beats Studio 3 and I had those for a few years but I felt like and upgrade could be fun. I love these headphones so much. The one difference I noticed between the AirPods and my beats was they even though they are both advertised as over the ear headphones but the AirPods are true over the ear head phones. They fit around my entire ear which makes them so comfortable especially if you have a few ear piercings. They are probably the most comfortable pair of headphone I have tried on, especially if you are wearing them for extended periods of time. My last thing I love is how seamlessly the headphones connect from my phone to my iPad and then to my Mac. That is probably one of my favorite things about these headphones that makes them better than the beats. Even thought I love these headphones I do have to say you don’t really NEED these. If you can afford them then of course I recommend them but you don’t need to break the bank for these.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I've owned my pair of Airpods Max from the day they came out and have been extremely pleased throughout my time owning them. Sound quality is better than any other wireless headphones I've tried and used including Sony XM5s and Bose's Quietcomforts. Because of the adaptive EQ feature, these headphones adjust the sound signature to suit whatever genre of music you listen to, making them the most versatile over ear headphones I've used. The noise cancelling is also amazing, cancelling out everything that I've thrown at it while not causing any discomfort or headaches with extended use. The transparency mode is unmatched; it literally sounds like I'm not using headphones when it's on and can have a complete conversation with people while listening to music. With that all being said, I used to wear my pair everyday for hours at a time, treating it more like an everyday accessory than a casual pair of headphones and as a result the fabric portion of the headband has deflated to the point that the steel bars of the headband has begun to press uncomfortably against my head when using it for longer than 30 minutes. The issue began about a year and a half after owning and using them religiously. I was able to have the headband replaced free of charge due to having Applecare+, however, the issue happened again after another year or so. Results may vary depending on how often you use them and how long you use them for at a time, but it is something to keep in mind should you decide to make these your daily driver headphones. Long term gripes aside, these are the best wireless headphones that I can recommend.

    I love these headphones. So easy to connect. The sound quality is excellent, and they cancel out the outside noise. My only issue is that they were a little heavy, until I got used to them. Battery life could be better.

    There's a weight to it, but once you wear it, it is very comfortable, the sounds, noise cancellation, transparency mode is very good, built quality is the best headphone ever, but it has to be with this price, can't wait for AirPods Max 2nd Gen.

    Very comfy fit, excellent sound and great noise isolation on flights. Battery life is incredible. Only used 40% on 3.5 hr flight. Creates the ability to isolate myself in my own world to work, think, or just plain rest, relax, and recuperate.

    Great sound and NC and excellent call quality, a bit tight on my head but overall comfortable. They are probably a bit better than the competitive brands from Sony and Bose but not a huge delta. Bottom line, if you are invested in the Apple eco-system and have the money, go for it. Either of the lower cost competitors offer similar quality and you won't be disappointed with them either. They are large for travel, if you plan to be on planes, trains and out about, not the best choice, they are heavy and big.

    Most uncomfortable best headphones ever!

    Ok. I waited 7 months before I purchased these. I looked at countless YouTube reviews and other videos. I couldn’t see them in person, or listen to them anywhere. So when the price went down to $479 that was the button pusher for me. Build quality is top notch, pairing and matching up with the Apple ecosystem was on par. Sound stage was awesome and at times I was in awe of the different things I hadn’t hear while listening to songs I’ve listened to before. Transparency mode was the best I’ve heard on the any headphones I have so for. I have the Sony XM4, Skullcandy crush ANC. And I’ve listened and used plenty of Bose products. However…. Having said all of that here is why I took them back. They are too heavy and super uncomfortable around my ears, to the point where they made my head hurt. I purchased a carrying case, ear cup protectors, both front and back and a head band protector. I really miss them, but the clamping pressure was just too much to bear. Maybe a third party will come out with an ear cup that can help even out the clapping pressure, but again. It was just too much Last… I wish they were louder. Not by much, but there were times where the music was hitting the sweet spot and I’d want to turn it up and there was nothing else left. They also needed to be louder for movie watching. I might purchase them again (open box) and then they would be worth the trouble. But after tax they were still $523.
