Fantastic ANC, frequency response and overall look and feel. Only downside IMO is that they are 650g, BUT because they are well built, they do sit well on your head and I don’t find myself getting fatigue unless I’m laying down.
10/10 quality consumer grade headphone.

The AirPods Max in Starlight deliver top-tier sound quality, superb noise cancellation, and long battery life, impressing customers with how rich, balanced, and immersive the audio feels . Reviewers love the luxurious comfort and premium build—the memory‑foam ear cushions and mesh canopy make long listening sessions cozy despite their 13.6‑ounce heft . You’ll also get the convenience of USB‑C charging, compliance with modern ports, and enhanced audio fidelity including Lossless and ultra‑low latency playback when wired, made possible by a 2025 software update . The elegant Starlight finish is beautiful, though it may show dirt more quickly than darker colors .

I love these headphones. They are a bit heavy, but to me it still feels comfortable on the head. I believe this just makes the headphones not so flimsy. Crown did kind of glitch and stop working but resetting them fixed that issue. Sound is amazing and noise cancellation is even better!

The are the best headphones! Sound quality is insane and they automatically connect as soon as you put them on. So there is no need go all the way to your settings and click to connect. I like that you can turn the noise cancelation off and on. Some times it can be too overwhelming to no be able to hear any surroundings. So the fact that you can just toggle it off is awesome! The only downside would be that my they hurt my ears after a while but that can just be a me thing. Also believe it not but these do not bother me one bit once i lay down with them. Other headphones make it uncomfortable for me to just chill in bed with them on,with these apple ones no problem at all! I 10000% recommend these anybody and think theyre the perfect headphones

Truly the best over ear headphones. I bought a less expensive, bust still $300, sony pair and returned. There is no comparison. The sound is great, very comfortable, great noise cancellation, so easy to connect to all my apple devices.

Product works great, I really like the sound quality and look. They feel a little heavier around the ears than my Sony XM5s but otherwise I really like these.

The sound quality is great and especially the transparency modes! Seamless connectivity in the Apple ecosystem. Slightly heavier and the clamping force is higher than other ANC headphones! Better case with a better price would have made it a happier purchase!

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.

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.

The AirPods Max (USB-C) in Starlight are hands-down the best headphones I’ve ever owned. From the moment I unboxed them, I could tell this was a premium product — the build quality is sleek, solid, and the Starlight color is absolutely stunning. They feel as good as they look.
Sound-wise, these are a game-changer. The spatial audio makes music feel immersive, and the noise cancellation blocks out the world completely. Whether I’m on a plane, at the gym, or just relaxing at home, the clarity and depth of the sound never fail to impress me.
I love that they now come with a USB-C port — finally! It makes charging more convenient and fits perfectly with my other Apple devices.
They’re definitely an investment, but if you're an audiophile or someone who appreciates high-end gear, it’s 100% worth it. Apple knocked it out of the park with these.

Pick-up was quick and easy. Very satisfied with this item! Changed from the Sony XM4, and it is noticeably heavier; it takes a while to get adjusted to the weight or pressure. That being said, the sound quality is great, particularly with the noise cancellation feature. You can also use the charger on a MacBook to both charge and listen at the same time.

With a tight budget, I had to return my pair. But in my experience with it, and considering I bought it when it was heavily discounted, it’s definitely worth it, if you can find a hot sale. There’s plenty of amazing options out there, but to me, at least, these are the easiest to navigate. Phenomenal sound quality, but definitely heavy. Noise cancellation is also pretty great, so if you’re vacuuming and doing chores, those sounds won’t be as obnoxious
