Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought as a Christmas gift. My son loved the sleekness and sound quality along with noise cancelling. Very powerful and comfortable.

I actually loved these. Despite what ive heard others say, they were super comfortable (more than the sony xm4 in my opinion?? I think because the ear cup things are bigger. The bose ones are quite comfy though.) Also the mesh feels really nice on my head, the big ear cups are really awesome, the sound is INCREDIBLE (arguably the best? Compared to sony, beats, and Bose.) The only disadvantages are 1) just so ridiculously expensive 2) they get dirty easily and 3) the case. I personally really like the case but i know many people do not. They get dirty quite easily, are not ideal for working out, and absorb sweat. However the cups are easily removable and can be cleaned which is an amazing feature!! I would say to get these if 1) you want the best sound quality and noise cancellation and/or 2) have other apple products, as these (expectedly) pair really nicely!

These things have saved me with all of the work trips I’ve had to take. The noise cancellation is top notch. After I’ve boarded my plane, the first thing I do is put these on and cancel everyone else out. Comfortable to wear, and they sound awesome.

I love the look of them, the features are nice, and the noise cancelling is crazy good. They are a little heavy, but it isn’t too bad. I think they’re a good buy!

Super easy to set up on Apple devices. Sound is great. Comfort is pretty good. They’re made of metal so they are a little heavy. Noise cancelling is amazing.

Excellent audio! Comfortable. Use it for cleaning around the house, cooking, Gym ETC. Charging is a breeze does really die on me.

As much as I wanted to dislike this product due to the high price tag, I just can't dislike them. I already own the Sony XM4 headphones and had watched reviews on these. I saw mixed reviews. Some said they loved them, some said they were not worth the money. I really like my Sony's until I listened to the Airpods Max. Now...I can't really listen to the Sony's as I find the sound to be muddy and missing separation between things. The Airpods Max have such better separation and clear, crisp sounds in the higher frequencies. While I still feel the Sony's do have more "punch" at times, I know find that it is not clear and muddies the sound in the mid-range. The sub-base on the Airpods Max is so clean. The sound on the Airpods Max is great on bluetooth, but the sound is even better when connected via a cable and the use of a DAC. The sound is also greatly improved when listening to Hi-Res sources like Amazon Music HD or Tidal. If the excellent sound quality was not enough to sell me, the noise cancellation is certainly right on par with the Sony's, but they blow the competition away when is comes to the "pass through" mode. With other headphones, I found the "pass through" to be more gimmicky than an actual value. Some have implementations that make is useable, but the Airpods Max make is pleasure to use the mode. It is so natural sounding that I don't mind carrying on a conversation with the headphones on. That was the feature that had me completely sold. While the first portion of this give the headphones a rave review, I do have to mention the only part I hate about the headphones...the dreaded case! Call it a "bra" or a "purse" or whatever else is floating around out there, I really don't know what Apple was thinking. Outside of putting the headphone immediately into their "low power" state, there is nothing else of value with the case. It is ugly, not the easiest to get the headphones back into, and provides no protection for a product with a high price tag. There have been Apple products in the past I have questioned that have eventually become accepted (original Airpods)...I don't see how that can happen with this case. My recommendation is to check around on Amazon as there are already 3rd party options available that will offer the low power state. TLDR: These are the best sounding bluetooth headphones I have used, have tremendous build quality, work perfectly in the Apple Ecosystem, and have the best "pass through" audio mode I have ever heard. Look for an alternate case option.

The sound quality and noise canceling are unbeatable. I absolutely love these! My only small complaint is the material that sit on the head is polyester like and a little itchy. I do not work out in these headphones. They do weigh a lot which makes the price and quality a good deal.

Best design, perfect noise cancellation and surround sound. Feels premium to wear. Gold stars all around!!

I lile that these are loud and comfortable. Easy to clean, they are a bit heavy but sturdy. Overall great headphones.

The build and quality is excellent. Battery later me for a solid two weeks or more. Took some time to get used to how heavy they are but other that the sounds is super amazing and now with special audio on Apple Music money worth spent

As a headphone enthusiast, I wasn't very enthused with the announcement price of $550 for Apple's flagship headphone. The case is horrendous for the asking price and pairing them with an Android provides about as much use case as any other BT headphone you can buy at Wal-Mart. It's what these babies can do when paired to an Apple device that really adds some useful quirks. Right off the bat, transparency mode is the best of any headphone on the planet. It's simply mind blowing how good it is. Noise-Cancelling is not too far behind as well, besting even the Bose NC700. However, is it worth paying the additional $150-$200? If you can catch these on sale for over $100 off and have already integrated into the Apple ecosystem, I say go for it. Sound quality is good, however, they sound better with the wired cable.

Amazing product, good material, beautiful color, I like it

I was worried I would have buyer’s remorse after purchasing these but I couldn’t be happier. They are every bit of the quality you expect from Apple. They are extremely comfortable wearing all day long, and the sound quality is better than the air pods pro. I was also looking for a wireless headphone that I could use for meetings at work without distorting my voice like a lot of wireless headphones do. These are perfect and sound crystal clear. I’m regretting not buying them sooner!

Absolutely love them! Amazing audio and very comfortable to wear, use them to workout and they never slip out!

They are pricey, but for my use very well worth it. I work in a "open" office environment with a lot of cubes/desks so naturally a lot of "noise". These do a fantastic job of blocking out most of all the office noise and they work great as a headset for meetings. The mic doesn't pickup the ambiant noise and my voice is clear. The battery isn't too bad. I use them about 7-9 hours a day and can get about 3 days out of them before they start warning about a low battery. This wasn't a big deal as I will try and plug them in during lunch or meetings away from my desk.

great sound. comfortable and lightweight. regular airpods would sometimes fall out. no problem w airpods max and also has benefit of noise reduction

I was undecided between the beats and air pods max. I decided to purchase the AirPods Max over the beats due to the noise cancellation option—after comparing the two. Although a bit heavy, they are still worth every bit of the cost. The quality and noise cancellation is the best I’ve experienced in terms of wireless headphones. You literally hear nothing with the feature on. The sound quality is great. Besides, the headphones being slightly heavy it makes up in quality and other characteristics I was looking for.

The fit and sound quality are top-notch! I love how it seamlessly connects to my device and allows me to tune into what I am listening to without being distracted by other noises.

No problems connecting to my devices. Sounds great! Just have to get used to the weight when wearing for long periods of time.
