Customer Ratings & Reviews

These have been my favorite so far! I’m not typically one who loves over-the-ear headphones, but my headphones needed an update. I decided to splurge on these and I can NOT take them off. Would probably buy a pair in every color if I had that type of money, but for now, the blue ones will do

These are Apple’s premium over-ear headphones, now with a USB-C charging port (replacing the older Lightning port) and available in a new “Orange” colour. P.C.

Great quality! Color is beautiful! Shipping was fast received the following day!

Awesome sounds, very comfortable and feels like best purchase decision. Loved it.

Best purchase for headphones ever! Super comfortable for long wear. And the color is legit perfect!

I had the lightning version of these for years and then went for the newer version to get USB-C across all my devices. The sound quality, noise cancellation, and usability are unmatched across any other wireless headphones I've ever tried. I love the option of using the cable for true lossless listening, as well. Buy once, cry once.

I recently upgraded to the AirPods Max (USB-C) in Starlight, and they have completely exceeded my expectations. The design is stunning—Starlight has a sleek, elegant finish that looks even better in person. The build quality feels premium, and the headband and ear cushions are extremely comfortable, even for long listening sessions. The sound quality is phenomenal—rich, detailed, and balanced across lows, mids, and highs. The spatial audio feature with head tracking makes movies and music feel immersive, almost like being in a theater. Noise cancellation is top-notch, blocking out background distractions effortlessly, and the transparency mode is equally impressive for when you need awareness of your surroundings. The move to USB-C is a nice touch—charging is fast and future-proof. Battery life easily lasts through a full day of heavy use without any issues. Overall, these are a perfect blend of luxury design, incredible sound, and everyday practicality. If you’re looking for the best over-ear headphones that work seamlessly with the Apple ecosystem, the AirPods Max are worth every penny. Highly recommend!

Great quality sound, transparency mode and music mode, makes it a 100%

I bought the knock offs cause initially I didn’t wanna pay but it’s 1000% worth the investment. It holds a decent charge but the noice cancellation is amaaazing omg

Having been an Apple consumer for many years I can confidently say they haven’t let me down. Apple’s products consistently deliver superb quality and while yes they can cost a pretty penny it is akways worth it knowing the product will last a long long tine. I would one hundred percent recommend Apple’s Airpod Max in Sky Blue. It’s the headphone that makes Sounds that feel good for both professionals and for everyday activities.

I think the best part about this headset is actually the convenience if you are in the apple ecosystem. I work on a Macbook, have an iphone, and occasionally use my ipad. I tried other headsets like the Sony and Bose and they are more comfortable to wear but the inconvenience of having to resync throughout the day when switching devices added up when you switch between devices as much as I do. Being able to see a call come through on your iphone and answer it whiel on your Mac and the headset to immediately switch between devices is very convenient throughout the work day. Same when you're on your iphone and switch back to Macbook for a online meeting. Battery life is great, charging is fast, and sound and noise cancelling all perform well. Compared to Bose and Sony I would say it's good enough and the convenience being in the Apple ecosystem makes this headset the best for me. 4 stars instead of 5 is for comfort. Compared to the others this is a heavy headset and not as comfortable as the Bose or Sony.

I got black, the metallic pastels were a bit extra. The noise canceling is incredible. I no longer here the teenagers arguing, the cat knocking things off the island in the kitchen or my wife saying can you come look at this. The look on the kids face when he opened them on Christmas morning only to realize I wrapped the empty box for him was priceless. They are actually excellent for real.

Sound quality is great, specifically bass. The noise canceling feature is very good, as i can’t hear anything when it’s on. The only downside is they are a bit heavy, especially if you’re adding a case.

I love it! Great sound and comfortable I love sound cancellation

Bought these for my wife and she loved them. Color was great and design is incredible.

I loved them they sound great and look amazing, I would buy again

Love these! My first time using them was on a flight with a crying child seated behind me for an hour flight. The noise cancellation feature was amazing. I was able to enjoy my music without the various sounds on the plane, including the crying child. They also fit comfortably over my ears. This is my first pair of over the head headphones, I highly recommend.

My second pair must buy do a trade in to get a somewhat of a discount

We love this. They are really good, comfortable, block noise.

Despite complaints regarding lack of updated chip etc that may be present in the AirPod pros, the over ear AirPod maxes are a different breed of headphone in the Apple lineup. They took the “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” approach and despite people’s skepticism, this is still a top tier premium headphone. This headphone is in a class of its own regarding luxury listening, being better build quality and a higher price range than the Bose, Sony and Sonos but not so high in price as the Bowers and Wilkins or B & O offerings. This sits in the middle as a premium noise cancelling headphone with premium metal build quality, excellent noise cancellation, best in class transparency mode, rich and detailed sound especially utilizing spatial sound with music and movies, and imo the best looking and most sleek design of any headphone in the market. Adding USB C and the slew of new colors gives this headphone the facelift it needs to continue being a top of the line headphone in the market. The new midnight color is amazing in person. And finally, the AirPods Max as expected fit so seamlessly into the Apple ecosystem that it makes it the best choice no matter how new the other offerings are. Despite the new Sonos Ace having newer bells and whistles as far as tech advancements, the noise cancellation and sound quality is better in my opinion on the AirPods Max still to this day not to mention better looks, build quality and working more seamlessly in the Apple ecosystem. All in all its impressive for a headphone from 2020 to be more than holding its own against newer headphone competitors that have gone through 2 new iterations since then. The minor refresh these new AirPod maxes got are frankly all they needed considering how Apple knocked it out of the park the first time with these. If you are upgrading for usb c and the new colors or you want to get these for the first time, these are definitely a must buy.
