The AirPods Max stand out thanks to their premium design, which uses premium materials like aluminum, steel, and fabric that feel more high-end than plastic rivals from Sony and Bose. They’re also one of the few pairs of over-ear headphones designed to work seamlessly with Apple gadgets, thanks to features like automatic device switching and hands-free Siri access. Additionally, they can tap into Apple’s Find My network and the company’s nifty audio sharing feature, which lets two pairs of AirPods or Beats headphones listen from a single iPhone or iPad.
In terms of audio, the AirPods Max deliver well-balanced, natural sound with support for 24-bit / 48kHz lossless audio playback over USB-C, so you can listen to compatible songs with better detail and clarity. They also continue to deliver top-tier noise cancellation, support ultra-low latency audio, and feature a clear transparency mode, making them a great all-around option for Apple users.
