The AirPods Max have been named one of the most expensive noise-cancelling headphones out there and feature, what Apple calls Computational Audio. They’re packed with Adaptive EQ, Spatial Audio for a surround sound experience, and hands-free access to Siri, Apple’s Voice Assistant. Apple brings high-quality noise cancellation, refined bass, and high-frequency clarity in sound. They include 40mm dynamic drivers and neodymium ring magnet monitors making the cushion detachable and reducing sound distortion to only around 1%. There are nine mics included in the design as well as a Digital Crown where the basic controls are placed. Most Tech reviewers are comparing the AirPods Max to the Bose Noise-Cancelling 700’s and Sony XM4’s priced at $399 and $349, respectively. While Bose and Sony are well-known for the industry-leading sound quality, a lot of potential buyers are questioning spending $200 extra on the Apple AirPods Pro just for the hype.
When it comes to the design, the AirPods Max come in 5 beautiful finishes and borrow their shape from the Apple Watch. The canopy on top is being compared to the design on a Herman Miller chair and has said to be a genius masterstroke by Apple in assuring comfortable wear of the gadget. Since the earcups are replaceable and separately sold for $69, there’s some degree of customizability there but not a lot of people would want to spend top-dollar for the headphones topped with another $69 to change up the look.
The AirPods Max do not come with a power adapter but have a connection for a Lightning-to-USB-C cable. They come in a smart-case which only covers the earmuffs and is built as such that when the headphones are placed inside it, they automatically switch to low-power mode.
All in all, the AirPods Max look like a thing out of a galactic film and we’re more than excited to see how they fare in the future!
