Bought these for my girlfriend and she loves them. I use airpods in the gym, but since she has little ears she wanted headphones for working out. She loves them as they fit her ears well and dont fall off from exercise. She has also said they are very comfortable and the audio is great. We are not audiophiles by anymeans but they do sound clear and have good base. I do think they are a little over priced but are overall a good purchase.

The best AirPods ! Delivery was on time same day delivery . Great conditions, brand new. excellent sound quality, especially in the midrange, with detailed highs and a balanced audio profile that's slightly low-end heavy. They also feature impressive active noise cancellation and a comfortable over-ear design with decent battery life.

Love these headphones. I have had airpods forever and hate the way they fall out of my ears and hurt my ears. The sound on the airpod max is great and they are very comfy to wear even in bed. I do think my ears would get a bit sweaty if i was wearing them anywhere not air conditioned but that is the only con. Charge is long lasting too!

Wow. I need noice canceling head phone for mowing, chainsawing, and my neighbor’s dogs! Wanted a head set to listen to music too. Had read reviews on how the speakers do the spacial thing as well. Bought them for myself at Christmas. The battery has a 20 hour life. The quality is what you expect from apple. The sound is amazing!

I genuinely enjoy using the AirPods Max. They’re expensive, yes, but every time I put them on, they remind me why people praise them so much. The combination of comfort, sound quality, and effortless Apple integration makes them feel like a luxury that’s actually worth having.
If what you want is a premium, immersive listening experience, the AirPods Max deliver—and you’ll probably enjoy them as much as I have.

Another great audio product from Apple! Picked these up during a sale from Best Buy, and upgraded from a set of AirPods Pro.
Big improvement in comfort, overall sound quality, battery life for sure. If you’ve been thinking about making the jump, I’d say go for it if you can get any kind of deal on these.

Incredible Sound & Comfort – Worth Every Penny
The AirPods Max completely exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is phenomenal — crystal clear highs, rich mids, and deep bass that doesn’t overpower. Whether I’m listening to music, watching movies, or on a call, the experience feels immersive and premium.
The Active Noise Cancellation is top-tier — it blocks out background noise better than any other headphones I’ve tried. And when I need to hear my surroundings, Transparency Mode works like magic.
Comfort-wise, they’re surprisingly light for their size. The memory foam ear cushions and breathable mesh headband make them comfortable even after hours of use.
Battery life is solid, and the build quality feels ultra-premium. The design is sleek, modern, and unmistakably Apple.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants the best in wireless over-ear headphones. They’re not cheap but you get what you pay for and more.

I love the sound quality and how compact they are when folded in the included case! Very slim and fits perfectly in my work laptop backpack. Battery life is very good. And the noise cancellation is very effective on a noisy airplane, too. And it works seamlessly when pairing with my iPhone 17, too. I love these!

This was a very good purchase. I really enjoy the more neutral sound profile of the AirPods Max vs the WH-1000XM5 that I normally use. Even though they weigh more (383g vs 250g), the headband distributes the weight very well and as a result, it isn't fatiguing. The ear pads are so comfortable and the depth of the ear cup feels great. It has a very neutral, slightly warm character but much better bass and sub-bass response, so it is just great right out of the box. The clarity was shocking to me at first, too.
The recent firmware update enabling USB-Audio over USB-C works beautifully well. It also works flawlessly over USB-C with my Windows 11 desktop, too. It is great to use for lossless audio and also have it remain charged up, too. I don't really use this in areas needing great noise canceling, but it is obvious that the ANC is quite good.

I love these headphones. The noise cancellation is top-tier. I’m a first year nursing student and I do a lot of studying on campus. These headphones cancel out all background noise and allow me to study in high student traffic areas. I would recommend these headphones to anyone looking for a set of headphones that are comfortable and well worth the price.

I’ve been using the AirPods Max for a few weeks now, and I can confidently say they offer one of the best listening experiences available—if you’re willing to pay the high price.
Sound Quality:
The audio quality is exceptional. The sound is rich, detailed, and well-balanced across all genres. Whether it’s music, podcasts, or movies, everything sounds immersive. The spatial audio feature with head tracking really shines during movie watching—it feels like a mini theater.
Noise Cancellation & Transparency:
Apple nailed the Active Noise Cancellation. It blocks out most ambient noise without making your ears feel pressured. The Transparency mode is just as impressive—super natural-sounding, almost like you’re not wearing headphones at all.
Design & Comfort:
The build feels premium, with aluminum ear cups and a breathable mesh headband. They’re a bit heavy compared to other headphones, and comfort can depend on head shape and how long you wear them. For short to medium sessions, they’re great—but some might find them tiring after long use.
