Just do it? amzn.to/49g9HRx

I’m waiting for the USB-C version but it’s difficult…

What I want from air max 2 is more noise cancellation, less sound leak, usb-c, able to be turned off fully even without case, lighter, better bass sound quality and more colors

I’m buying it as soon as they refresh it

had them since launch and with very minimal cleaning and maintenance and daily use, they still sound and perform like new. One of the very few impulse buys that i never regret even once lol

Mine are two years old. Constantly disconnecting and not wanting to pair. If my left cup moves slightly it creaks and then only plays sound out of the left side till I disconnect and reconnect. Go figure this all started a month and a half after my warranty expired. Now I need the new ones to release in order to justify a replacement

Good vlog; however, you can tell the difference in audio very easily. Try listening on iPhone various quality/volume, then try on higher quality upstream. A simple A/B with the iPad/iPhone has different results. The reason that Apple can keep the form for 3 years is because of the technology in an Apple versus a regular headphone : the firmware can be easily updated. When new ground is broken from a form factor, Apple will be ready to pioneer it.

I totally agree on ear fit versus weight, its the biggest comfort difference.

Hey Greg, just wanted to say, I love your green overshirt! Looks great

bought mine a few months ago because I was tired of the apple ear buds developing a squeal when you push them in you ears (2nd pair to do that). I agree with you about the build quality and comfort and big bonus... the way they connect so simply with everything I use.

My original AirPods Max bricked about 1&1/2 years ago so I’ve been missing them for a long time! Don’t particularly care about usb-c on them. Just want the refresh to happen already! And if it doesn’t by the end of this year then screw it im saving up and buying on Amazon for a hopeful discount.

There won't be issues with connectivity or maybe performance until a new pair comes out.

What can they really even improve in the refresh? Ergonomics are quite nice and sound quality will only increase by a negligible degree

Great video. You make so much sense as to why these are a great pair of headphones. Lightning port is no big deal and the case is nobiggie either.

Definitely going to get the new version when it comes out I skipped this model

I’ve been battling with myself to wait for the next version for couple years now, i want to use them for traveling and whenever i want. But i’m loosing it😅 Like i said i want to use it on the plane too watch and listen to music/movies, and i’m traveling in 4 weeks, now i have to decide in less than 3 weeks to get it anyway or heading for a Sony version. But i kinda dislike the plastic feel 😅 and who knows when Apple is gonna release newer version of Airpods Max. Any suggestions ?

If they can reduce the form factor on the external shell, that would be awesome. These things are YUUUUGE.

I wish I had a 24 hour asmr Greg video to listen to in my AirPods Max

What about the weird case and lack of an off button? I don’t own a pair but my memory is that those were both issues folks had with the Airpods Max. I’m going to continue waiting because I can’t get rid of lightning ports fast enough.

They look good with the Vision Pro.

I bought a pair for $592 (taxes) and returned them the following day. Why? Well Best buy had them for 70 dollars off, but my friend had a pair that she never wore because of the weight and sold them to me for $250.00. I got lucky.. If they come out with a refresh, now I won't feel bad purchasing the new ones.

I ended up buying the Beats Studio Pro. Close enough on the features and much more affordable. You can get them on sale for $199.

I had to sell mine due to condensation so unless Apple fix this issue in a Gen 2, I don't see myself ever having another pair despite how great the features and sound are.

I’ve had mine from day one part from the cups need cleaning sometimes my silver ones still look brand new I would buy them again tomorrow if my broke down because we are coming up to 4 years with out a upgrade to the second generation which is very unlikely Apple so I don’t think new ones will come anytime soon if at all

550 is not bad but considering how long they been out cut the price a bit they are well over 3 years old I think 349 would be perfect for them at this point

I have the first gen and will be getting the second gen as well

Said I wasn’t buying cause price ain’t worth it compared to other options , I folded and recently got one 2 weeks ago not upset at all. Does that mean they’re worth $550? No but I love em and imma just trade these in or sell when 2nd gen drop.

What a well balanced and well thought out review. I have a pair coming today and I just have the next 14 days to decide wether to return or keep based on my own experience.

I’m waiting for usb c and water resistance

Complete the agree these are still very purchasable today maybe not the full price though

I just got mine! But i'll just get the new one when that comes out too

the biggest change they need to make / could potentially make is LIGHTER BUILD!!! dealbreak for these compared to the competition is that these are far too heavy to use for working out or full days of work

I know this is a month old but thanks for the honest review!

One problem with them, Lightning! I’m slowly getting rid of lightning

I traded something i got for 150 but to them was worth 300 so i got lucky had been worn for couple months but still new since used in studio but i still can’t wait for the usbc bc i tossed out all my other chargers

It’s like the only Apple product I don’t have and want so bad ., but I’m not gnna buy one with lightening charger

Bought them yesterday.. been waiting forever… also amazon and best buy have them discounted

I hope they add more colors anybody else suffering from rust on the magnetic ear cups?

I have airpods for 1st generation but I am thinking about buying airpods max but the problem is if this year will be 2nd generation, so please advise whether to buy the current airpods max or wait for this year's airpods max 2 ?

I’m soooooo glad you feel my pain! Thank you for making this videos it’s therapy

They have to hurry up and sell the usbc versions already

You forgot the biggest con for me anyways, the case need major improvement and the option to support lossless playback from Apple Music.

What are they like for home cinema use?

I’m going to wait for the refresh

If you can find them for 300 in good condition, i would still recommend bc the quality of the materials, anc, and transparency is still industry leading.

I have no regrets just purchased and used them on a long haul flight and found them more comfortable than Bose QC over the ears which get warm and are tighter after a few hours it really makes a difference - the noise canceling is better than Bose too because no hissing sound - I agree with most of what this says. I got some at Best Buy and they did not work properly I had several issues, so I returned and paid the extra $70 at Apple with peace of mind. I suspect the Best Buy were refurbished by Apple and sold as new, Best Buy told me they were brand new direct from Apple and I believe them, maybe it was just a defective item but I did not want to take a chance. I would not trust Amazon either. If the next APM's come out soon and are much better it will be easy to sell these purchased from Apple still under warranty to fund the new version. That's what many do when upgrading their Iphones so why not for headphones?

Could you make a video if it is safe to put a case on the MacBook air or pros please because this is my first MacBook that I will be buying soon

Cool review, like vibes brother 👊

I loved mine. Until two months after Apple Care was no longer. The mesh gave in and the metal rested on my head causing unbearable pain. I contacted Apple and they wanted $325 to replace the headband. No other option. The third- party silicon band and other products didn't help either. I sold them for $200 and purchased Bose. Not the same thing but at least they don't hurt my head.

I’m hoping the new ones drop so these go down in price. Ik they’ll probably discontinue these but I’m hoping to find them elsewhere.

Wait a while and get them at reduced price when apple bring out next version. I just got AirPods 3rd gen which I am very happy with super comfortable and sound good.

I love My airpod max when they actually wanna work. He's sugar coating it like a fan boy. They are good headphones but they have a condensation issue and connection issues as well. And they get dirty quick so you have to wash them like twice a month.

I bought a ten dollar silicone cover for the mesh bc i knew it was the one durability flaw, and 2 years later its still like new. Small design flaw, easily fixable.

I still have an iPhone 12 Pro and an iPad Pro, bought during Covid, which I only did because my iPad Air stopped working properly after being dropped when boarding the ferry at Dublin Port and I needed an iPhone for the Irish Covid vaccine passports - these iPods are still too expensive for me to consider buying here in the U.K. and that is based on advice given to me by staff in the Apple Stores here in the U.K. - based on their advice, I still have not upgraded my iPhone or my iPad Pro - travelling frequently between where I live in the U.K. and my family in Ireland, there are way cheaper alternatives out there that work perfectly well with the iPad and iPhone and allow you to have two devices connected via Bluetooth at the same time, such as both your iPad and your iPhone

I’m waiting for AirPods Max 2 and HomePods mini 2

whats the music track which starts at 7:30

Was really considering purchasing this after tax refund. But I’ll probably wait until June to see until wwdc; if they don’t get updated then they won’t get updated at least until September

I want to get it !!!!! But when the new one dropping !?

I got lucky and bought my AirPods Max last year Cause my Best Buy had it on deal for 329.99 I just bought them

I hope they let us trade the headphones in when the new ones come out.

I purchased a pair from a guy who was clueless about them. We met at Apple and the associates confirmed the legitimacy. Purchased for $150

Hmmm to wait or not to waitttt for usbc hmmmm

Wait the biggest reason is so they can update the DAC for hires playback.

Hey man, if you're going to use my USB-C AirPods Max picture @0:25 I'd appreciate it if you at least credit it or mention the mod kit in the video ;)

Apple should put a built-in battery life LED screen on their Airpods and headphones. Cheaper brands have done this, so why can't they do it too?

I'm just waiting because next gen will have lossless audio support.

I AM waiting..waiting for split screen on iPhones 😅😂

I want to buy one soon one day

Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day.

I just bit the bullet. couldn't wait any longer lmaooo.

I’m gonna buy some for my birthday in 2 weeks

They would have to have THE BEST noise canceling for me to spend the money they cost.

I bought the Beats Studio Pro. Not bad.

I tried the AirPods Max, in the Apple Store. they're honestly not that great sounding headphones. I cannot seem to see myself pay that much for those pair. I however done my research and gone with the Sony WH1000XM4s. IMO the Sony XM4s are great sounding headphones for music, you can hear the mids, lows and highs, better than the beats and AirPods Max. the Bass is just right amount, sounds so good I can adjust the sound and Sony's good preset how you want. It's better than the apple preset equalizers. Hell of a lot better. but I still love the AirPod Pros and AirPods 2nd gen.

Apple AirPod Max can’t connect to my iPhone pro max. So I’m not sure I’ll everyone should it

You made me buy a pair today 😍

This is funny I finally broke down and bought the max after waiting and waiting for usbc and ended up returning them for the Sony xm5s and couldn’t be happier. AirPods Max was just too much for the value , too heavy , stupid case, no power button and lightning charging got old fast. I was scared to wear them in the gym. That being said I loved the sound balance they did a good job there but the sonys just made more since for me.

favourite thing about these is that A sold a pair to somebody and had a pretty good discount but you know the ear cups the squishy part it’s gonna smell after a while cause it’s on your ears a lot this person complained profusely how bad the smell was and he’s gonna have to get new cop or whatever. I just thought that was hilarious but I’ve had mine probably as long as you’ve had yours, and yeah, they’re really good. It’ll be interesting to see when and if they come out with new ones, if they actually be any improvements cause I think most people can afford them probably buy more for the noise cancelling the actual quality of sound noise cancelling is better than anything I’ve ever had. I’ve had quite a few pairs of the ear headphones.

I’ll wait for the next generation and hopefully they will be lighter and with a better carrying case and cheaper

I’m gonna bought one next month

Srry ive had my sony xm4 longer and they arent any worse and no creaking, no damages etc

Watching this video with my AirPods Max sky blue on 🗿

Sound wise, it’s not as good as my Bose wireless headphones. However I have a technics dj headphones with is wired, but the sound is fuller, warmer and bass is solid (not forced) which makes listening to music or watching movies.

I bought mine a few months ago

Needs to be smaller, lighter, USB C, better looking, a better case…then they will be the category king.

😂😂 love that ur such a dork “just do it!!!”

Sony xm5

Waiting for AirPods Max’s 2! I’ve currently have my AirPods 3 and AirPods Pro 2 2022 version am currently don’t need to buy these outdated headphones 🎧 the wait will be worthy the time for Gen2

on DHgate for $70. You’re welcome

If they go down 250(maybe) $200 I will buy it

Bro. You’re kidding me. I’ve had my AirPod Max about 3 years also. The biggest disappointment is blue tooth connectivity. I’m surprised that you didn’t mention that pain in the ass. My Beats connect flawlessly. However the plastic pieces fall apart like a cheap watch.

let’s be so fr; the AirPods Max are Retro asf now.

iPad Pro 😭

I just bit the bullet... I went to Apple .. please just give me the Airpod Max lmaoo .. done waiting .. I had them for 2 months and only wore them like once 😂😂😂😂

Don't fomo, if you want them, just buy them. Don't overthink too much. Btw, the small (rumored) changes, are worth nothing to me if not for USB C, but everyone in the Apple universe charged with Lightning for literally years...

I got some for $300. They’re legitimate and in excellent condition. eBay!!!

channeling christian bale at 4:52 ?

Thank u

I see you listen to Miki Matsubara

Pods pro cause whining tinnitus to me and others later - max do not -
