It's hard for me to know how to rate these. The headphones are great. The build quality and materials are superior to any other headphones out there. The noise cancelling function is far better than I expected. I wanted to love these headphones. Unfortunately for me, they weren't comfortable on my ears for long periods of time. That's not Apple's fault - most people find them very comfortable. But it's impossible for something to be 100% comfortable for 100% of the people. Still, I feel weird giving a 5-star rating to something I had to return due to comfort issues, so I'll give it a 4-star. I'm happy Adorama has a good return policy - I'm just out the shipping cost.

If you can afford them, buy them. Excellent sound and build quality. Serviceable, and am happy that I'll never have to apply the electrical tape repair to the headband because this one is made of metal.

Yes, they are pricey; yes, they are heavier then the competitions? plastic ones, but dang they sound great and integrate with the Apple universe nearly seamlessly. To get full benefit of all the linked features, you really need to have iCloud available and connected to your other Apple devices. Once that?s accomplished, any and all your listening/viewing devices connect. I?ve only had one connection issue where the iPhone 12 failed to ?see? the Max, even though it was the original device that was used to set up the Max. By ?Forgetting? the Max from BlueTooth and starting the pairing over, re-connection took only seconds. I was fortunate to find this when the price was discounted by $100 and used the savings to purchase a nice case from Waterfield Designs in San Francisco. I mention that NOT to promote another US business, but to acknowledge the horrible case that comes with the Max? Ugly and clumsy. Waterfield is an elegant protective case that also has the sleep magnets included.

Great sounding headphones, glad I waited to snag them at $449. Would buy again (at $449) The sound quality is breathtaking, and the build quality is meticulous, but they are large, so I wouldn?t wear them to the gym or use them while running or sleeping. I use my AirPods Pro for those activities. The Digital Crown for volume adjustment is lovely because it increases or decreases in such small increments compared to the volume buttons on the iPhone. It makes dialing in the right volume level easy.

The AirPods Max sound very good, better than I expected. The noise cancelleation also works quite well. There is slight sound delay when watching movies/videos?so best to get the Apple Lights to Audio Cable (which eliminates the sound delay with spoken dialog).

Apple sacrifices pure sound volume for sound quality in their AirPods Max. They?re great in transparency mode and noise canceling mode. The buttons are super intuitive and responsive. They?re absolutely beautiful too. The only thing I don?t like is how they sound when they clap together being aluminum. Adorama had fantastic ship and shipping times. I got them quickly and nicely packed. Great price too! I?ll define my be buying from here again!

The headset is actually very very good, best i've ever owned. A bit heavy because its construction is mostly metal, and metal IS heavy, so bare that in mind. Sound is amazing and if you are in the apple ecosystem, there is no better headphone than this. The case is the only downside if you don't like the design, but it is functional for putting the headphones in ultra low power mode.

I was a bit reluctant to spend so much on these Airpods Max but decided to try. They exceeded any reasonable expectation The build quality is years ahead of Sony or Bose The Noise Cancellation was truly amazing Way beyond anything I?ve experienced before Yes, the case is a bit of a joke but I ordered a case from sfbags.com out here in San Fransisco Yes, I wish there was an app to control these rather than having to go into settings ? Bluetooth ? Yes they?re a bit on the heavy side due to materials and build quality but still very comfortable Overall thry are worth the price

I am extremely impressed with my AirPods Max. I also own a pair of Denon AH-D7000 headphones that I?ve had for about a decade. I believe they were about $700. The newer version, the AH-D7200 goes for $1,000 now. The AirPods Max compare very favorably. Everything is slightly more refined with the Denons, but the AirPods give me 95% of the performance and going wireless is so freeing. I now use my AirPods most of the time. If you listen to any bass heavy music like hip hop or EDM, you will love these. The bass is deep and powerful, yet controlled and not at all bloated. The midrange and highs are also great. I listen to many genres. In addition to EDM, I listen to a lot of classic rock and classical and a bit of jazz. Those sound great, too. The noise cancellation is the most impressive I have ever heard and the transparency mode is truly amazing. The multiple microphones place ambient sounds and voices exactly where you would hear them if you weren?t wearing headphones. It?s uncanny.

As an impartial buyer, let me say I owned both the Sony XM4 and AirPods Max. I am pretty much a Apple loyalist owning every product that's out there, but the sound from the Sony XM4 dwarfs the sound from the AirPods Max. Yes, it's that good. Literally when listening with the Sony, I am transported to another world in Narnia having a great music session of listening. I will give props to the AirPods Max for their noise cancelling. No doubt Apple AirPods max noise cancelling feature is superb, but it gains the advantage ever so slightly. Also, the transparency mode is phenomenal. Much much better than the Sony. Other than that, Sony XM4 wins in value, sound quality, comfort, and more importantly, is a proper headphone for traveling since it comes with a nice case. What on earth did Apple think for not including a traveling case?

Great headphones, for a price.
By TERENCE W.
Love these headphones. Easy to use and sound great. Get them on sale, though.
The over-ear headphone has been completely reimagined. From cushion to canopy, AirPods Max are designed for an uncompromising fit that creates the optimal acoustic seal for many different head shapes — fully immersing you in every sound.
The beautifully anodized aluminum cups feature a revolutionary mechanism that allows each cup to rotate independently and balance pressure.
A custom-designed mesh textile wraps the ear cushions to provide pillow-like softness while listening.
Crafted with acoustically engineered memory foam, the ear cushions gently create an immersive seal that is the foundation of incredible sound.
The Digital Crown lets you precisely control volume, skip between tracks, answer phone calls, and activate Siri.
AirPods Max combine high-fidelity audio with industry-leading Active Noise Cancellation to deliver an unparalleled listening experience. Each part of their custom-built driver works to produce sound with ultra-low distortion across the audible range. From deep, rich bass to accurate mids and crisp, clean highs, you’ll hear every note with a new sense of clarity.
To cancel unwanted external sound, AirPods Max use a total of six outward-facing microphones to detect noise in your environment, and two inward-facing microphones to measure what you’re hearing. Beamforming microphones help isolate your voice on phone calls, so it’s heard clearly — even in windy situations.
The Apple-designed dynamic driver produces a wide frequency range that uncovers the rich details of every sound — delivering your favorite songs with previously unheard texture and accuracy.
Modeled after those in high-end floor-standing speakers, the driver’s dual-neodymium ring magnet motor minimizes total harmonic distortion across the entire audible range. The result is consistently clear playback, even at full volume.
With a powerful Apple‑designed H1 chip in each cup, our custom acoustic design, and advanced software, AirPods Max use computational audio to create a breakthrough listening experience. By tapping into each chip’s 10 audio cores, computational audio helps block outside noise, adapts audio to the fit and seal of your ear cushions, and makes movie scenes sound like they’re happening all around you.
Industry‑leading Active Noise Cancellation counters external sound with equal anti‑noise, allowing you to immerse yourself in what you’re listening to.
Press the noise control button to switch to Transparency mode, which lets outside sound in so you can interact naturally with your surroundings.
Adaptive EQ tailors sound to the bespoke fit and seal created by the ear cushions. Inward-facing microphones measure what you’re hearing, then adjust the frequencies of your music to deliver a rich, consistent experience that faithfully reproduces every note.
Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking gives you a theater‑like experience for movies and shows, with sound that surrounds you. Using built-in gyroscopes and accelerometers, AirPods Max and your iPhone or iPad track the subtle motion of your head, anchoring sounds to your device.
AirPods Max inherit all of the wireless, effortless magic of the AirPods family. From setup to Siri commands, they make the listening experience completely fluid — day to day, device to device.
AirPods Max connect immediately to your iPhone or iPad. To pair, simply place AirPods Max near your device and tap Connect on your screen.
Seamlessly move between your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. If you’re playing music on your Mac and take a call on your iPhone, AirPods Max will automatically switch over.
AirPods Max pause audio when you take them off, and resume playback when you put them back on. So you never miss a beat.
Let Siri speak incoming messages as they arrive with Announce Messages.4 You can even tell Siri to respond — no hands required.
Get directions, check the weather, schedule a meeting, and more with a simple “Hey Siri.” With an expansive set of commands, your favorite personal assistant is more helpful than ever.
When stored in their soft, slim Smart Case, AirPods Max enter an ultra‑low‑power state that preserves charge.
