    I decided to go with the refurbished AirPods Max in Sky Blue from Best Buy, and I’m honestly blown away by how good they are. The headphones look and feel brand new—if I didn’t know they were refurbished, I never would’ve guessed. Best Buy did a fantastic job with the packaging and presentation too. Sound quality is absolutely top-notch. The clarity, the bass, the way everything feels so balanced—it’s easily the best listening experience I’ve had. The noise cancellation is incredible; it really blocks out the world and makes music, movies, and even calls feel immersive. Transparency mode is just as impressive, letting me stay aware when I need to. Comfort is another big win. They’re a little heavier than other headphones, but the memory foam ear cups and headband design make them super comfortable for long sessions. Battery life is excellent as well, and charging with Lightning is quick and easy. Getting these refurbished saved me a good chunk of money, and I still got an amazing product that feels brand new. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase!

    disappointment!! I bought this product and I received some used headphones with that shipment I felt that they had disrespected me since they were extremely dirty, they were disgusting just by looking at them, it was not worth it for such a high price

    The airpods came dirty and reaking of the last owners cologne / perfume. The charging cord was not neat, and taped together. Will be returning these asap. Bestbuy should be ashamed of themselves. Nothing was clearly done to refurbish these.

    This was not a good purchase. The previous owner's iCloud was still on it. It had scratches, dirt and everything on the covers. The Airpods had some scratches on it too. I don't think it was even a refurbished piece. The earcups were bad too.

    I was a bit skeptical about buying refurbished, but these Apple Geek Squad Refurbished AirPods Max in Sky Blue completely blew me away. From the moment I unboxed them, I could tell they were handled with care. The condition is genuinely excellent with no scratches, scuffs, or signs of wear. They look and feel brand new. The Sky Blue finish is absolutely stunning. It adds a unique pop of personality without being too loud. I’ve gotten compliments wearing them. The Lightning charging port works flawlessly. Charging is fast and reliable, and the battery life holds up beautifully. I can go days without needing a recharge. Premium Sound, Premium Feel The audio quality is everything you’d expect from AirPods Max.The ear cushions and headband are plush and comfortable for long listening. If you’re on the fence about going refurbished, don’t be. These Geek Squad Certified Refurbished AirPods Max are a fantastic deal.
