Customer Ratings & Reviews

Cost still makes me feel weird and I purchased mine while they were on sale but being honest I’ve never experienced sound like this. I have many headphones because I’m into VR and 3D is a must (btw - these do not work well with VR). The best I can describe is the sound makes me feel like I’m in a small room with a band playing around me and a concert is happening just for me! Amazing!! The noice cancellation is top notch and can not be beat. The build is a typical Apple build, high class and strong! Look at this as a investment or whatever you must tell yourself to purchase these!

Very impressed about the sound and the bass! I was skeptical vs. BOSE but now I am vote for APPLE

Love these headphones. Sound quality is awesome and they are so comfortable

These headphones are so light and comfortable that you don't realize you are wearing them. Great sound too.

They literally block all noise and are so comfortable!

These headphones are next level! My stepdad uses them on all his trips. He never hears us when we call his name LOL

Pros: comfortable, high build quality, great controls with the Digital Crown very good sound quality, very good noise cancellation, easy device switching (iOS devices), easy pairing process Cons: no 3.5mm jack for wired listening, case is only way to “turn off”, less battery life than my last pair of Bluetooth noise canceling headphones (Sony WH1000XM3’s). To me the pros outweigh the cons. these are great sounding headphones with the best feature set for users inside the Apple ecosystem.

Very comfortable but they are very heavy. After awhile you can really feel the weight on your head.

My wife loves it. Shes very picky and very girly, and was able to accessorize it to her liking. She praises the sound quality for music and enjoyed the noise cancelling. Her only issue is the mic for phone calls which came out low and off phase.

My daughter loves them!!! Great noise cancelling and fit!

Excellent quality, price point was a stretch but the build quality is worth it

Although the sound cancellation is great I think the headphones are over rated.Not as loud as I expected Plus my hair dye got all over the ear cushion

From the moment I unboxed these Apple headphones, I knew I was in for a treat. The sleek design promised a premium experience, and they did not disappoint. The sound quality is, in a word, phenomenal. Whether I’m lost in the intricate layers of a classical piece or vibing to the latest Beyonce or Drake hits, these headphones deliver crystal-clear audio that makes every note resonate with clarity. But it’s not just the sound that’s impressive. Comfort is where these headphones truly shine. They are designed for long listening sessions, fitting snugly yet gently over my ears. I’ve worn them throughout the day without any hint of discomfort, which is a rarity in headphones. And did I mention how great they sound? It bears repeating. The audio quality is so immersive, it feels like the musicians are right there in the room with me. The bass is deep and rich, the highs are crisp, and the mid-tones are perfectly balanced. Whether for music, podcasts, or movies, these headphones are a game-changer. Apple has outdone themselves with these headphones. They strike the perfect balance between superb sound quality and day-long comfort. If you’re in the market for a new pair of headphones, these should definitely be at the top of your list.

I have way too many headphones/earbuds in my home. My wife says that I have a problem, and she's probably right. My first reaction when I saw Apple introduce these headphones was; I can't wait to try them out. I've been using their AirPods, and AirPods Pro since release so I had high expectations for them. Then, they announced the price, I had to pause. I really didn't think I was going to end up purchasing them. I do own a few headphones around the $400 mark, but the Max's price seemed a bit too high for something unproven. Fast forward a few months, and I finally had the opportunity to purchase these headphones. My curiosity won out and I took the plunge. They finally had the Sky Blue color I was looking for, and I placed the order. I have zero regrets purchasing them, and they have become my default, goto headphones. Sound quality is unmatched. There are other headphones that come close. Sony and Bose have some great headphones that cost a couple of hundred less that have great sound. Those headphones get very close to the sound quality of the Max, but the Max wins out by a bit. The Max have great, great separation, and some amazing bass. Regardless of what type of genres you listen to, you will find some nuances to your music that you probably haven't noticed before. Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode are also both amazing. The noise cancellation does a great job of muting the world around you for the most part. It struggles with some low frequencies from my experience but easily drowns out most noise. I've yet to hear a better 'transparency' mode from any other manufacturer. Transparency mode on the entire AirPods line up is unmatched. It sounds natural and not robotic/amplified. I have heard others complain about weight being an issue. The Max are noticeably heavier than most of the other wireless headphones. After using these for over a month, I can confidently say that I don't notice the weight at all anymore. I use the Max for hours on end for movies, music, podcasts, and calls and I don't have issues with them sliding around, or feeling pressure. They are comfortable for me. What pushes these headphones ahead of the competition for me are the Apple ecosystem features. The fact that they auto switch to whatever ever device I am using, iPhone, iPad, or MacBook, is amazing. Just like the other AirPods, once you pair it to one Apple device, iCloud connects it to every other Apple device. Access to iMessages, Siri is great. The connection is solid and once again unmatched. I can go outside, all around my home and not lose connection or hear stuttering/drop out when I leave my device in the bedroom. The cost is considerable, but if you are considering some of the slightly less expensive offerings from Sony or Bose, and you are already invested in the Apple ecosystem, I'd give these a chance. I am glad I did, and I would be hard pressed to go back to a different set of headphones.

I loveeet! I bought this for my fiance and he's been enjoying it since I got it. We met recently and i got to try it on, the beat is solid. P.S: i done use an i-phone that's why i don't have one.

best headphones in the game good sound great battery life

Great quality, very comfortable and better than the beats I had.

The airpod's max have changed my life for the better. The noise cancellation is amazing and great on an airplane with crying babies. I would buy it again for sure

I love the cancellation noise mode, and battery time is great

I love them! They have just the right amount of base and noise cancellation. Not too overpowering of a sound but just right!
