Customers regard the AirPods Max (USB-C) highly for their exceptional sound quality and comfort. Many appreciate the stellar battery life, beautiful design, and seamless connectivity within the Apple ecosystem, as well as Transparency Mode. However, some find the weight of the headphones to be a drawback, and suggest improvements to the bass and maximum volume. A few customers feel that the portability and price could be improved.

    These are amazing! The sound quality is great. I love that it has a control for the volume on the headphone and it has an option to turn the noise cancelling off. When that is off, you can't hear any of the ambient sounds. The earpieces are perfect. They fit fully over my ears and form fit to them.

    The Apple AirPods Max in Starlight are more than headphones—they’re a full sensory experience. From the moment I unboxed them, I felt like I’d stepped into a sound sanctuary. The Starlight finish is understated elegance: soft, warm, and impossibly chic. It pairs beautifully with any outfit, whether I’m in mom-mode or boss-mode. But let’s talk performance. The noise cancellation is next-level—I can finally hear my music, podcasts, or peace without the background chaos. Spatial audio makes everything feel cinematic, and the sound quality? Rich, balanced, and immersive. Whether I’m decompressing after a long day or powering through errands, these headphones elevate the moment. Comfort-wise, they’re surprisingly light and breathable. I’ve worn them for hours without fatigue, and the ear cushions feel like clouds. The digital crown is a genius touch—intuitive and precise. Yes, they’re a splurge. But for the blend of style, substance, and serenity they deliver, the AirPods Max are worth every penny. Starlight isn’t just a color—it’s a vibe.

    Convenient if you're an Apple power user

    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.

    My son loves his new headphones! I was initially worried they might be a bit heavy for him, but he enjoys wearing them and loves being able to chat with his friends. I’d definitely recommend this product to parents who have teens who spend a lot of time talking with friends and listening to music.

    If youve got a few apple devices thag you switch between its hard to beat the convenience of airpods. Automatic device switching and detection makes it a pick up and go solution. There are competitive options in terms of sound quality and noise cancellation, and there are certainly less expensive options, but its hard to value the convenience and reliability that you get with these. If you dont have apple products….I would definitely look at other options.

    Best headphones ever!!! I love these so much, I didn’t use to be a headphone user but after starting a new job recently I felt they would be better and stay more securely than regular AirPods. I also loved being able to get these at Best Buy for a lesser price than the Apple store

    The AirPods Max have always delivered premium build quality, exceptional ANC (Active Noise Cancellation), and spatial audio that’s hard to beat in the Apple ecosystem. But now, with Apple’s quiet update enabling lossless audio playback via USB-C to USB-C connection, they finally close the gap that audiophiles have been pointing out since launch. Lossless Audio Over USB-C The biggest upgrade: you can now connect the AirPods Max directly to your Mac, iPad, or other compatible devices using a USB-C to USB-C cable to enjoy 24-bit/48kHz lossless audio. This bypasses the limitations of Bluetooth compression and makes a noticeable difference for trained ears—especially when listening to Apple Lossless, FLAC, or high-bitrate files. While it’s not full high-res (e.g., 192kHz), the clarity, dynamic range, and separation are improved. Build & Comfort Still as durable and comfortable as ever. The stainless steel frame and breathable knit mesh canopy give a unique blend of luxury and function, though the weight remains on the heavier side for long sessions. Sound Quality Even before lossless, the AirPods Max delivered incredibly balanced sound with strong bass, detailed mids, and crisp highs. Now, with wired lossless support, the already excellent drivers are pushed further—especially for studio recordings and orchestral tracks. Noise Cancellation & Transparency Top-tier. Few headphones match the ANC capabilities of the AirPods Max, and the transparency mode is still one of the most natural on the market. Battery Life & Charging 20 hours of battery life remains standard, and USB-C makes charging more convenient—no more Lightning cable needed. Downsides • Still no power button; relies on case placement or time-based sleep. • Wired lossless only works through USB-C—not through the Lightning-to-3.5mm dongle or with analog sources. • Expensive, especially if you don’t fully live in the Apple ecosystem. Verdict The addition of lossless audio via USB-C gives the AirPods Max the audiophile credibility they were missing. They’re still very Apple-centric, but if you’re deep in the ecosystem and care about sound quality, these now feel like a complete package. Rating: 9/10 – Premium sound meets premium design—finally lossless.
