I just got the Bose QC Ultra and I'm debating whether I return them and wait for the APM2... decisions 😭 I currently own the Bose QC Ultra and the B&W Px8 McLaren Edition. I have owned the XM5 (headphones and earbuds), the APMS in space grey and in green), the XM3/4, the Skullcandy Crusher Evo, and practically almost all of the AirPods generations there are. I have also tried Nothing earbuds as well.
AirPods Max really need a new chip and USB C at the very least. Wish they figured out how to stream via airplay instead of bluetooth on those to allow higher fidelity audio playback. But from what ive read it's still too energy intensive.
If the update to AirPods Max was USB-C only, I don't see why they wouldn't have just released it last year along with the AirPods Pro 2 USB-C refresh. I think the rumors are wrong. I can't see any world where Apple releases their most premium pair of headphones without an H2 chip. It's a major selling point for the AirPods Pro 2, especially with Adaptive Transparency which is an incredible feature. It would be extremely unlike Apple to use a 4 year old chip in their most premium model of anything. Major disappointment if the rumors are true.
I think they will since airpods pro 2 already support lossless with vision pro. So clearly the H2 chip is capable of processing lossless audio. Maybe they'll only enable it with wired connection, which is understandable and fine by me.
Especially since smaller manufacturers have already beat them to the market with lossless, and now even Samsung has finally brought lossless support. Apple cant be too far behind.
@@batterynerd8779 you’re right and some regards that is very true however for example they want phones and all the hardware on them to get better and then when it becomes better, they bitch about the price increase screen quality people want 4K or higher at a 720 P to 1080 price
Should be a AirPod max lite where it’s more affordable and the regular version definitely should get a 2nd gen refresh just like the AirPods Pro’s with new specs, features and revamps.
24/48, actually, but only with Vision Pro. I bet Pro 3 and Max 2 will have it, but no one is talking about it. I mean look at Samsung's new buds, they support 24/96 but no youtiber is talking about it. The airpods max currently can do 24/48 in wired mode as well but youtubers dont talk about it either. The focus is always more on superficial things rather than technical audio stuff most ppl dont understand.
Same here. I bought a pair of Airpods pro 2 with USBC because I wanted to see if I could get use to the ear tips, but they gave me an ear ake after I was wearing them for like 2 or 3 hours at a time with the medium ear tips, so I ended returning them after 4 days. I didn’t try a smaller size ear tip, so I don’t know if its just the medium size thats the problem or if ear tips just don’t work with my ears. I hope the airpods 4s with speaker case don’t come with silicone ear tips because I really like the case on the Airpods pro 2s and it would be nice to have it on a pair of airpods with out the ear tips even if the ANC isn’t that goods like on the galaxy buds live.
It absolutely amazes me that with all the technology that apple has at its disposal and they haven’t produced ear pods that will work as hearing aids. Absolutely amazing.
What amazes me with all there disposable money and they have yet "ALleGedlY" Apple is only refreshing the airpods max to Usb-C and some new colors. No adding of existing features of air-pods pro to the refresh, giving it a better chip ie H2, making it lossess or even adding new features like touch gestures like the sonys M5 headset has. I hope to god the rumors are wrong becasue I'd like more than just a usb-C refresh.
Agreed. It would be unlike Apple to use an outdated chip on a premium model of anything. It makes no sense. There will definitely be a bigger update. I could see: H2 chip, weight reduction, water/sweat resistance, and USB-C.
According to MY sources (myself) Apple will definitely have real upgrades to the Airpods Max including noise cancellation and transparency mode features similar to how they upgraded the airpods pros 2nd gen. I also predict they will have improved bass and overall volume. Lets see if my predictions are true in a couple weeks- will I be a better source than your sources? 😁
I love the design of the og AirPods. I think if they copied the 3’s design, but made them a little bit smaller, I’d be sold. Cause the threes don’t perfectly fit in my ears, and the 2nd gen are much more comfortable for sleeping
Visually I’ve always loved how the AirPods Max look. Features, not so much. Very dated compared to the AirPods Pro but I would purchase a pair if they didn’t cost as much and if they updated the features like usb-c water/sweat/dust resistant and included something like the h2 or even put a h3 chip inside just to make them a little more future proof
3:24 What if they made airpods+case an independent entity, like the iPod was. So you just take it and go. It could feature cellular connectivity and AI-enabled voice control, so we could leave our phones and all those tiktoks and reels at home and have our digital detox. I would even go further and tweak the exterior of airpods case to look like a miniature camera having a small screen on one side and a lens on another. Because taking pictures matters, while carrying a 6-7'' screen is not. So basically voice calls, messaging and pics in addition to classic audio features, while anything more than that goes to iPhone and iPad.
They need to make the Max liter above all else. I have gotten neck pains from headphones half that weight. The current Max are practically unusable for long durations.
The main things for me on the Max,s will be USB C for less cables on my desk (I use usb `c' Logitech keyboard & mouse for my Mac), a way to replace the support net as I have needed to add as silicon replacement for mine. Price i'm happy with because if its lowered then we will be losing quality, I dont care for the switch off function because reality is it barely drains enough that a few mins charge cannot rectify anyway and who needs another button with potential to break. The Travel case cover would be a nice but in reality I think ive only taken them out of my house twice in three years as so much easier to take my AirPods pro's anyway.
I currently have a pair of Master & Dynamic MW09s. The only thing that could get me to switch to AirPods is if they bump the battery life so they last a full night, as I wear them for sleep.
@AppleTrack -Theory here about the pro 4 models-there is some really crazy cool battery tech coming out from a Dutch company improving lithium ion batteries with silicon anodes instead of graphite that is boasting some next gen stats and they were pretty close lipped about which consumer market they were starting out producing for (they stated not cell phones or laptops etc. but the vibe was “we have a contract in place with a client and we can’t talk about it”. Long story short I could see them waiting for this tech to be able to do stemless.
idk what to do wait for the airpods max 2 be out or get sony xm5 the only reason y i’ll get the xm5 bc im going to swizerland in 2 weeks and i dont have any over the ear headphones other then my airpods pro 2 and idk bout u but i like to have a pair of headphones and earbuds to switch every often on the plan or long car rides what do i do?
NO don’t get the SonyXM5 i was going to get them too cause my main earbuds are AirPods Pro 2nd Gen as well i bought them since November 2022 and I’m very pleased with them so i was looking for wireless headphones and i thought Sony XM5 were good choice decent price but NO after i heard so many MANY people report that they are actually not good at all, sound is very muddy, noise cancellation is way too much that crushes the sound, the build quality… terrible the hinge breaks easily they are just not it so i changed my mind to getting AirPods Max i will just wait until September if they release the second version of AirPods Max if not I’m getting the og one i suggest you do the same as well, as you said you have AirPods Pro 2 you can go on for a bit with them wait till September event.
@@jasfx7241 thank u really helpful only problem is i won’t have over the ear headphones when i go to swizerland and its a 19 hr flight yea i got my airpods pro 2 they’re really good but for having them too long hurt my ears so i wont have a over the ear headphones until the air pods max 2 come out
Just waiting for the AirPods Max 2 to come out so the the regular pair can go down. It’s dumb to by the new pair just like it was to upgrade to Apple Watch Ultra 2.
If true ,That AirPods Max news is the most disappointing. They have so many things to update. Updated chip, USB-C, lighter clamping force, better case, lighter material. No one wants to pay 550 for 4 year old headset that only gets a USB-c update.
If they ditch the stem on the AirPods Pro’s then it’ll be a huge downgrade. It’ll be like making an iPhone thinner at the expense of battery life, cameras etc. it’s got Jony Ive vibes.
Max 2 I have been waiting for. I was hoping for a major update. But, sounds llke a dud. I'll buy something else then because I have been waiting four years already!!!
Yeah had the same problem with theairpods pro 2 with USBC. Couldn’t wear them for a long period of time because my ears would start to hurt afterwards.
I hope this is not what we end up with either. Tried wearing ear buds with ear tips and discovered that my ears hurt after wearing them for a long time.
The fact that I couldn’t notice a difference between the gen 2 AirPod pros and the AirPod max is already sad enough but my $250 audio technica headphones blew both of them out of the water
@@joshbloome801 I didn’t notice any difference between gen 1 and 2 pros besides functionality controls. I used to have the in-ear wf-1000xm4’s and still have them somewhere but Sony had to replace the earbuds themselves through warranty about 5 times within two years because the batteries kept shitting themselves and wouldn’t hold a charge or even charge, the cases also act up with the static in my pockets and auto connect to my phone when it isn’t even open..
@@feeltheburntk9893 I turned off auto connect because between my phone, laptop, and work computer it became a bit of a headache. Towards the end of my gen 1s after maybe two years, only one really worked, so I might be a little biased about differentiating between the two. All around sound quality and noise cancellation is way better though, but still not as good as Sony. Gen 1s also randomly killed themselves when not in use, where my Gen 2s rarely do that. There seems to be a more snug fit in the case, and a better fit in the ears with the additional ear cup sizing. I’ve never had the in ears for Sony, but I do remember that switching over to a newer phone was a nightmare because I couldn’t figure out how to unpair before eventually leading to a full factory reset. The qualm I do have is using the microphone. It never seems to work, so I just use them mostly for work, music, watching movies, or gaming
Am I the only one that thinks that the AirPods Max sound really mid for the price point? Lots of audiophiles praising the sound quality but every time I try them at an Apple Store I’m baffled by how they sound like regular AirPods but inside of a bin. Am I the only one? Hardly anyone talking about how cheap they sound. Most of the mids are indecipherable. Lots of high pitched sounds are lost and it’s really muddied
What I don’t understand is people want technology to get better but then they don’t wanna pay for it. It just doesn’t make any sense to me. Also, if they get rid of the stem, I’m gonna hit AirPods. I’ve never understood. What’s the point of an in ear but why would you want to push something farther into your ear cause yourself potential discomfort that’s why the stem idea is always been elite in my mind.
If apple Shipped EarPod Pro’s with iPhone (I know they won’t) but IF they shipped for just one generation. IMAGINE the sales they would probably see. (Profit is a different story)
Apple are pricing more & more people out of Apple products! I’m in the Apple world , iPad pro 2022 12.9”, iPhone 15 pro max and AirPods Pro .. but I bought a meta quest 3 recently.. no way I can afford Apple Vision Pro.. 🤷🏼🤷🏼.. my next phone purchase may not be Apple !
Here i was thinking that the airpods pro 3 were coming this fall :') i washed my OG pros 2 months ago (i know, i am an absolute idiot) and have been waiting to buy another pair for the new release but another year might be too long to wait
Just need a version of AirPods Max that doesn't cost $550 or weigh 550 pounds
Are you still working for Sam or did he dump you for Artyfex like how he dumped Ian's Elbow for you?
Hell, I’ll pay $550 again for them if they are just more comfortable with the current ones.

Honestly, all I want changed on the AirPods Max is the h1 chip to h2 and Spatial Audio and the transparency and noice cancellation.
USB C
So AirPods Max doesn’t have lossless / hifi capability?
Nothing wrong with the AP 2 gen. Great price for a functioning headphone 8:30
Just bought AirPods 3 with MagSafe. I have ear plugs for noise cancellation situations.
It absolutely amazes me that with all the technology that apple has at its disposal and they haven’t produced ear pods that will work as hearing aids. Absolutely amazing.

Agreed. It would be unlike Apple to use an outdated chip on a premium model of anything. It makes no sense. There will definitely be a bigger update. I could see: H2 chip, weight reduction, water/sweat resistance, and USB-C.
i just gotta say… i’ve been loving the apple park background 😂 its so good
The AirPod pro, you can charge them with the Apple Watch pro charger. Not sure about other chargers . I am charging them like that.
I don't want them to drop the stem on the pros. Just think about how easy they'd be to lose and how hard it would be to do inline controls.
I just bought a pair of XM5, they took way too long for a USB-C refresh, I’m done waiting. It’s a shame, but it is what it is.

If a 4-year update to the max airpods is it, they are a no buy for me. Lighter, updated chips, bluetooth update, better battery.
Whatever the best pair are that DON’T have the plastic tips you shove in your year, I’ll be keen on
I still have the first gen AirPods 💔
What abt apple se 4?
They should give some love to Beats Fit Pro
Hmm skeptical tbh how can they improve what they already have 😂 maybe change the design for the airpods to a pod style without the stem :)
I don't see stemless versions happening any time soon.
The fact that I couldn’t notice a difference between the gen 2 AirPod pros and the AirPod max is already sad enough but my $250 audio technica headphones blew both of them out of the water
Gen 2 AirPod pros blew the first gen out of the water, but my sony wh-1000xm4s are still better
@@joshbloome801 I didn’t notice any difference between gen 1 and 2 pros besides functionality controls. I used to have the in-ear wf-1000xm4’s and still have them somewhere but Sony had to replace the earbuds themselves through warranty about 5 times within two years because the batteries kept shitting themselves and wouldn’t hold a charge or even charge, the cases also act up with the static in my pockets and auto connect to my phone when it isn’t even open..
@@joshbloome801 i wish I had gone the wh route not wf but it’s a little harder to carry around over the ears all day
@@feeltheburntk9893 I turned off auto connect because between my phone, laptop, and work computer it became a bit of a headache. Towards the end of my gen 1s after maybe two years, only one really worked, so I might be a little biased about differentiating between the two. All around sound quality and noise cancellation is way better though, but still not as good as Sony. Gen 1s also randomly killed themselves when not in use, where my Gen 2s rarely do that. There seems to be a more snug fit in the case, and a better fit in the ears with the additional ear cup sizing. I’ve never had the in ears for Sony, but I do remember that switching over to a newer phone was a nightmare because I couldn’t figure out how to unpair before eventually leading to a full factory reset. The qualm I do have is using the microphone. It never seems to work, so I just use them mostly for work, music, watching movies, or gaming
Am I the only one that thinks that the AirPods Max sound really mid for the price point? Lots of audiophiles praising the sound quality but every time I try them at an Apple Store I’m baffled by how they sound like regular AirPods but inside of a bin. Am I the only one? Hardly anyone talking about how cheap they sound. Most of the mids are indecipherable. Lots of high pitched sounds are lost and it’s really muddied
You can already charge the apple airpods with a Apple Watch charger 3:32
Not the normal ones
wait? when did apple said they would be releasing 3 pairs of airpods? did I miss something? 😭
What I don’t understand is people want technology to get better but then they don’t wanna pay for it. It just doesn’t make any sense to me. Also, if they get rid of the stem, I’m gonna hit AirPods. I’ve never understood. What’s the point of an in ear but why would you want to push something farther into your ear cause yourself potential discomfort that’s why the stem idea is always been elite in my mind.
If apple Shipped EarPod Pro’s with iPhone (I know they won’t) but IF they shipped for just one generation. IMAGINE the sales they would probably see. (Profit is a different story)
I’ll do that once I finish imagining pigs fly.
What good are sales unless they turn a profit? They don't need a bigger install base, they already have 1 billion devices out in the worldlmao
so airpods lite and two types of airpods 4 extending the airpods model line from 3 to 5... This will get confusing
I think the base AirPods 4 and the AirPods lite will just be the same thing.
AirPods Max is honestly pretty close to perfection. Lightning is a minor inconvenience not a deal breaker. If its not broken don't change it.
Except if you want to camp at the top of the hill, then lightning is a dealbreaker.
not just the port but no water resistant , no h2 chip no adaptive sound like airpods pro , so many lack features compare to airpods pro 2
I want power Beats Pro 2 relabeled as AirPods Fit with IP67 rating
Apple are pricing more & more people out of Apple products! I’m in the Apple world , iPad pro 2022 12.9”, iPhone 15 pro max and AirPods Pro .. but I bought a meta quest 3 recently.. no way I can afford Apple Vision Pro.. 🤷🏼🤷🏼.. my next phone purchase may not be Apple !
Will we finally get a choice in color?
Man airpod max just became homepods
Here i was thinking that the airpods pro 3 were coming this fall :') i washed my OG pros 2 months ago (i know, i am an absolute idiot) and have been waiting to buy another pair for the new release but another year might be too long to wait
