Customer Ratings & Reviews

Absolutely loved these! I got them for my boyfriend and he loved them! Great sound and tune but also fits very comfortably around the ears! My boyfriend also has hearing aids and they were the perfect size to fit around! 10/10 Recommend!! It’s worth the money!

Really good headphones. Sound quality is not the best in the market, but the design and comfort compensate for it. The only one that’s actually over-the-ears headphone. It’s a good choice if you have iPhone and/or other apple devices.

I have been eyeing these headphones since hey first came out. I finally bought them and I have 0 complaints. Again they are headphones and they are an Apple product so with that being said you know Apple. I love my Max and I wear them when working out and no they do not bulge when I’m deadlifting. They only move when I’m laying down stretching.

I am quite impressed with these headphones. They replaced a pair of Bose noise canceling headphones that were becoming a little dated. These were an obvious upgrade to sound quality and noise cancellation. The fit and finish was typical apple quality. They are just a bit heavier than I expected but not so much that it’s an aggravation. Connection to my iPhone and iPad as well as my home theater system was very easy. I listen to music daily for an hour or more at a time and the audio quality is not burdensome over time like some headphones can be. Their not audiophile quality output but as close as you can get in this price range. One thing I was especially surprised by is the spatial audio virtual sound when connected to my home theater. It’s exactly what you would want if you had to listen through headphones. They are very pricy, as is everything Apple. But the build quality and setup in the Apple ecosphere is as simple as can be. The controls are well placed and the volume control provides audio and a tactile feel feedback when adjusting volume. The Bluetooth range is great and I have no dropouts around the house unless I go outside. The case is a little wonky and looks like a purse with the headphones inside but it does have a quality feel and has some added functionality and protects the headphones very well. It’s well thought out. Overall, I have no complaints whatsoever with these headphones and feel like they were a great choice.

Phenomenal audio quality, design, and extremely comfortable.

Truly a terrific upgrade from the Grado 80e's, which had a good sound but were not built very well, and ended up finally breaking. I tried the Beats Solo Pro, yet the comfort level was not the best. The APMs are comfortable, sound very good, and the transparency mode is welcome, as at times my wife wants to converse, and the transparency mode makes that possible I purchased them as open box, and they were "excellent".

My daughter love it she love the sound and the bass and comfortable on her ears

Took a chance on these seeing that they are kinda old now. Audio sounds great and even though they are heavy they are comfortable

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.

I bought these kind of impulsively, (due to sale)I am by no means an audiophile, but comparatively to Beats Pro/ Buds pro that I have used before the quality of the audio is much better. They are quite comfortable I fly a fair amount and I plan to use them for their noise cancellation/ comfort benefits. I was between these and the XM5 from sony which also had really good sound quality per testing, but the apples felt "sturdier" subjectively.

The AirPods Max deliver a level of audio quality that’s simply unmatched. Every note, beat, and effect comes through with crystal clarity and impressive spatial detail. Whether I’m listening to music, watching movies, or gaming, the sound feels immersive and balanced. Comfort is excellent for long listening sessions, and the build quality feels luxurious without being overly heavy. The Space Gray finish looks sleek and timeless. Features like Active Noise Cancellation, Transparency Mode, and automatic device switching work flawlessly and make everyday use a joy. Pairing is instant with Apple devices, and the Lightning charging makes it easy to keep the headphones ready at all times. These headphones are expensive, but every penny is justified for anyone who values premium sound, comfort, and design. Truly a five-star experience.

This is definitely a premium audio experience (not audiophile, premium) for the users who have a lot of Apple products or are used to how the Apple ecosystem works. The sound quality is good enough that it will impress most people, and the seemless connection between Apple products makes it a better option than most other headphones in this price range. Also the proprietary spacial audio technology that Apple uses, combined with the effective active noise cancellation (ANC) makes watching movies in a noisy environment a special experience. The head tracking truly makes it sound like you are watching a movie in front of a Dolby Atmos entertainment system in a theater. As for the drawbacks, the usual stuff that everyone talks about. The case is not great. I am not alone in wanting a way to fully switch off the headset. But is okay to live with until the second generation comes out to address this issue. Also along those lines, I would like a way to see the battery percentage without putting them on and checking my device. Those two things arent a huge deal if you are going to leave them plugged into a lightning connector most of the time they aren't being used, but for someone who travels a lot and is dependent on battery availability, I could imagine it would get quite annoying. If you aren't switching between Apple devices all the time, or want to save money, then you would probably be better off with the competition from Sony or Bose.

The AirPods Max are an excellent choice for Apple users seeking high-quality sound and seamless integration with their devices. While they come at a premium price, their performance and features justify the investment for those within the Apple ecosystem.

The sound and the bass quality is very amazing, very easy to set up and connect to phone also the battery life is very good and last long and I don’t think I could have bought a better pair of headphones ever in my life love the headphones and worth the money

Since they're made out of metal, they're a bit heavier than other headphones but you get used to it and I don't find it uncomfortable. Really great sound and felt like an upgrade from my Bose! Only thing I dislike is the case since it's not best for travel, but will buy something separately to house it in.

Super comfortable, doesnt slip and slide on your head. And the best sound, i love being able to switch back and fourth between noisecanceling and transparency mode when needed.

They are extremely comfy. The noise cancelling is great - cuts out airport/plane noise very well. They stay on when working out, they are very much worth the purchase.

I will NEVER get on a plane without this headphone. It cuts out all the noise and I hear crystal clear music. I was traveling from Morocco to Madrid to New York to San Francisco on one charge. Very impressive. Headset is really comfortable, especially I have big ears.

I dont usually go for over the ear headphones but these were amazing and the comfortability was great. Connected to my device seamlessly and they sound great.

Great headphones. Not sweat or water resistant which is sad, but comfortable to wear most of the day while working. Sound quality is great and the noise cancellation is fantastic. Battery life has been great and it connects easily to all my apple devices.
