Every review I've seen treats the AirPods Max like all they can do is play music. Music sounds GREAT on these, but there's SO much MORE they can do. In fact, I don't even use these primarily to listen to music. Even if I never used them to listen to music, I'd still want to own them. Ya. This isn't your typical AirPods Max review.

Same story with Airpods. I literally bought every model.
Very true... I always thought I never needed an Apple Watch ⌚️... till I got the s3... now I want a new one badly and I don’t even know why 🤷🏻🤦🏻
Same thing with the iPad.. I feel like I don’t really need one cos I have an iPhone 📱 and a Mac 💻.. I’m scared that if I somehow accidentally buy it.. I might never leave it again.
I wear a Cochlear Implant and a Hearing Aid in both ears, and every other headphones and earbuds, I’ve always had to adjust my hearing devices or the physical earbuds to work with me. But I tried these on at the Apple store and I was shocked and ecstatic to know they worked perfectly with my CI and hearing aids!
this is an important comment that highlights something nobody talks about. Should have more thumbs up!!
Awesome!!!! Happy for you!
Same situation for me!
Wow that is awesome that apple has really improved your life like that
Yes - works well with my hearing aids as well. I can’t use the AirPod Pros with my hearing aids in. Great point.
I e probably watched 20 different reviews of the AirPods Max. This one was easily the most useful because the review focused more on how I use the headphones - background music while working, using it for Zoom calls, maybe a little TV.
Finally, a person who actually understands and appreciates the way AirPods Max are intended to be used!
Hands down one of the best videos I have seen about these headphones. Two thumbs up.
Thanks RDR!
It's either hands down the best, or one of the best :P
Joshua Valour's review is unbeaten.
Yeah best videos I have seen about these headphones too. I am giving likes from my and my families devices coz i like this so much 🤣.
Yes, I agree with you, this product is an all-around entertainment Ecosystem product (not just for playing music) unfortunately most reviewers have missed the whole ecosystem functionality!
The thing is you are paying $500 for a product that sounds marginally better than its $300 competitors, less comfortable due to heavy weight, and less portable due to the bra case. I have a pair of beats studio, beats x, and airpods and don't think the connectivity feature is all that amazing. Sure it saves me from having to open bluetooth and hit connect but is it enough to justify the $200 price bump over similar or maybe even better performing headphones such as the QC35? For most nonaudiophiles $500 is super premium and for audiophiles this headphone sounds very mediocre for $500. This headphone appeals to those who want an Apple product (not a negative, as apple has a reputation for putting out reliable products) and those who know nothing about audio.
@@HGMKYN i know some about audio, but even more about computers and technology, so i think that justifies my preference to airpods max!!!
@@HGMKYN if you have a pair, you think they heavy cause imo they it’s alil tight fit but they way comfortable then any beats i had
@@HGMKYN 1st, the vast majority of those reviews and most people I know that have them stated that its actually very comfortable for longer stays, so the weight isn't as much of a problem as you say.
2nd, the sound quality makes them easily a $400 pair of headphones. But the other tech in it makes it worth more. The problem is that you need to be someone that uses the other tech. And to many people that eco system connection makes it much more worthwhile.
Basically, if you only use it like other headphones, then it's not as worth it. But if you use the features and benefits, then it's more than worth it.
@@TheDeathmail lol I'm late. But coming from someone who's actually gotten the chance to use them. Yes they are comfortable. But only for short bursts. 2-3 hours is the sweet spot. Anything more and generally you will notice the weight and clamping.
And unfortunately these do not compared to even 200/300$ audiophile equipment. They are top of their class for ANC Bluetooth headphones. But compared to most wired headphones. They dont compete. my Shure 440 (which cost less then 100 dollars on amazon). Have a wider Soundstage and cleaner treble. Overall, they're still very solid luxury headphones. But they're not particularly comfortable nor do they compare to most wired audiophile gear above 200$.
(Btw this is coming from someone who has an iPhone, iPad, ipod and uses airpods pro. They fit well in apples ecosystem. But so does airpods, beats fit pro, etc. They all have similar features)
I'm considering getting these for daily use. Since it is an apple product there are a lot of 3rd party cases and silicon covers than exist for the airpods max which I would buy to protect such an expensive device.
Very good review. I appreciate your pitch for the unheralded features of the airpod max. I have now seen over 30 TH-cam reviews of the airpod max and very unfortunately, not a single reviewer has even mentioned what would be the most important feature of the airpod max for me. I am a Professor and CoVID-19 has forced me and all my colleagues to teach many hours a day through Skype, Zoom, Webex, Go-to-Meeting, etc. One of my most difficult problem is to find a quiet environment where nobody can make any noise around me when I am teaching or making a comference call.
You and others who make TH-cam video know how critical and difficult it is to create a quiet environment for yourself and how intrusive it is to force everybody around you to be quiet. If you are a parent with children, you know what it is like to have to shush your children. In theory, the Airpod Max should be able to cancel noise from your microphone in your earcups. If the Airpod Max can subtract ambient noise from my voice in the earcups and can send my voice to my audience without background or incoming sounds, that would be worth $1000 for me. I ordered the Max but it will not arrive until March, so I cannot try it for myself.
I wish people will stop saying over and over again how much they hate the earphone covers. Enough already. For $12-20, you can buy from Amazon more than a dozen hard case that would allow you to protect the airpod max from scratches and dirt. I wish people will stop complaining about the lack of an on-off switch. The earphones go to sleep after a few minutes and 12 hours of sleep use less than 5% of the battery power. I wish reviewer would spend my time with greater care and respect (yes, we consumers are spending our precious time to listen to opinions and they should not be inane).
I would like to hear analyses of the sound stage, the directionality of the sound, ability to change the frequency profile, the presence of distortion, and the presence of delays between the timing of mouth movements and voice. Also, for people with hearing loss, the transparency mode with frequency adjustments have the potential to be an intelligent hearing aid. I wish that that they could have a voice output jack so that we know what is being sent out to the audience.
@@Randy-BBMM
Your words, not mine. Your arrogance, not mine.
You nailed it. I've been saying the same thing since they came out.
Been using my pair since the new year when I got them, and I love them so much. I was really disappointed with the Pros after all the issues I had, and now I use the Max’s for at home listening and the normal Airpods for work and exercise. Perfect setup for me👌
It takes you wearing one and listening to anything sound with the Airpod Max to understand this good review fully.
I got the Sony XM4. I couldn't survive the headache and discomfort.
Switched to Airpod Max and my life has been beautiful with sound.
It's expensive but worth it.
Thanks for the review bro.
🙌
Great review. Thank you for expanding this review to more than just music, and talking about the case (which I think is more of a cover) and how much they cost.
I work out with mine. They are excellent at blocking out gym noise. Love them
You nailed this review. I use the Max, Bang and Olufsen HX and the Bose Q35 Ii and 700 virtually every day. And, when the weather is iffy I use the Bose earbuds. That’s a lot of headphones and a lot of money; however, no one yet makes the perfect headphones. I also do not wear the same shirt and pants every day. All that said, the Max does do more things better than any similar product.
My best purchase this year. I got it in Space gray!
Got some today. Haven’t had the chance yet to really put them to the test yet but, really looking forward to it.
Great, well rounded review. I watched this using my Apple AirPods Max! 😁
Chris you are so right on target! Thanks for your review! The overall user experience, Apple functionality and amazing sound quality easily makes these one of the best Apple products I have ever bought. This evening I took a long walk with my AirPods Max and it was quite cold and with the Digital Crown and ANC control button and "Hey Siri" integration I was able to easily operate my headphones with heavy gloves on with an ease that would have never been possible with my Bose NC 700 or Sony XM4s with swipe controls. Those other headphones are excellent but the "ease of use" within the Apple ecosystem will have e reaching for my AirPods Max most of the time moving forward.
I just ordered some silver AirPods max on Ebay at a good price... Can’t wait to try them out!
Uuuummmm how much??😂😂😂😂
The experience of the airpods max, call quality and sync is really awesome on the airpods max, transparency mode, switching to apple devices, boise cancelling and sound... It just does everything well, I actually find it more comfortable than the Sonys to be honest because it stays cool and the large cups dont press on the ears. Spatial audio is amazing also.
You describe my use of these AirPod Max at work, perfectly. My coworkers are jealous 😂 I keep them on my head most of the day and can get away with listening to audiobooks, hearing my messages and taking calls while not interrupting my work. They are perfect for the office. They keep people from talking to me while I listen to conversations around me… a real bonus.
I got them and wow they sound sooo clear
You nailed it. This got me convinced. Thanks.
Thank you for providing a broader picture.
This is the first video about AirPods Max, that I have seen, that brings the right point about the headphones!!! It was refreshing! Thank you!!!!
So looking forward to my new pair of AirPod Max for Christmas this year.
What a great review!!! You are awesome!!!
I'm actually looking at them for 99% at the desk. Work from home, taking phone calls at home desk, watching youtube / music / TV / movies / etc...
I would want the airpods max however, I feel like the version 2 will be better in every way. I really hope apple will do a price drop or make a budget version of theses.
Man...I give you a lot of credit. Writing is something I need 100% focus on so I always turn off any background distractions and let the headphone's excellent ANC do it's thing.
That said...you are right on about the spatial audio and movies! I just installed the tvOS 15 Beta on my AppleTV 4K (official release this fall is going to include support for spatial audio which wasn't announced when you posted this review) and watched the trailer for the latest Fast and Furious movie and I was like..."What the hell...this sounds like it's playing over my home theater speakers!". I had to take my headphones off to make sure it wasn't blasting through my home theater system and my neighbors would be knocking on my door any second! Simply amazing! And for me...this alone makes the price tag 100% worth it!
If you live in an apartment complex like I do...then this is a great alternative to watching movies with spatial audio "surround sound" and not upsetting the neighbors below and beside you!
Another amazing feature Apple recently released before this review is Dolby Atmos for music FREE on Apple Music! Again...this feature alone is worth the price of admission! I listened to an old classic I grew up with by Queen titled Another One Bites The Dust and good lord...the Dolby Atmos remastered version blew me away!
So, I am totally satisfied with these headphones for use at home, the plane, office, etc. Of course these are NOT meant for the gym for several reasons so I use my excellent in-ear headphones for that.
They are great but the condensation worries me a lil
I like to play with the sound cancel by turning it off for a few seconds and then turning it back on and listening to the world fade away. It is like an ASMR reaction or something.
My pair literally just came I love them so much
Thank you for NOT being a trend follower and hating on a product not meant for everyone.
It’s been a WHOLE 2 weeks since these shipped.. that white will no doubt turn beige at BEST over time.. let’s say 6 months to a year of consistent use.
Although if they continue in popularity I’m sure people will start modding these and swapping out a headband might not be an issue.
I have the white ones. Clean! just put on silicon covers around the grey headphone and covers
That's also why I'm buying them. I have wired headphones for dedicated music listening, but wired headphones are too cumbersome for general use at my computer.
I”m glad you like the AirPods Max, & you shouldn’t dismiss them just b/c of a case. For me, the Bose QC35’s features are nice enough & the difference doesn’t justify selecting the pricey AirPods Max over it.
Great video. I can’t wait until I get mine. They are scheduled to be delivered Jan 6. I am a person who is deep in the apple ecosystem and I know I going to love them too and for people like me. The price isn’t really a issue either. I do have a problem with the case too. The first third party case I’ve seen is by Waterfiled and I’m sure other companies will soon follow. Therefore I don’t see even the case being an issue in the future. I watch a video from audio engineers who work for Abyss and they brought up a really interesting point and that was the ability for these headphones to be upgraded by software/apps in the future and I believe that will really set them apart.
All AirPods models can be updated by firmware upgrades from Apple. This has been true since the original AirPods. Still, software upgrades cannot bestow functions that the hardware within is not able to support. That’s why we can expect more functionality out of the AirPods Max than from the AirPods Pro. The Pros only have one H1 chip and obviously smaller drivers compared to the AirPods Max.
@@db4a I’m aware of that. I am suggesting like with most apple products there are hardware capabilities that haven’t been unlocked yet i.e. Apple photo raw that is only available on iPhone 12 and wasn’t unlocked until a software update. I would imagine that the air pod Max will have capabilities that the air pods and AirPod pros don’t.
@@CRobbins131 But Apple told us about that during the keynote for the iPhones. So it wasn’t a surprise just a delayed feature.
@@db4a yes, I agree. Apple raw was just an one example. This is just my theory and I believe will see the air pod Max do thing they currently don’t in the future. The other point I was making is that you don’t see this with non apple products as much and that’s just another thing that separates them from other brands.
I might use low power mode
I can SSOOOOOOO relate to your spatial audio comment. I have to start to take them off to make sure the audio isn’t playing through the device’s speaker and blasting around the room. It sounds so good!
Btw, it’s not really a case. It’s similar to the smart cover on an iPad. I bought a smart case in Amazon for protection.
Still worth it. I love streaming shows on Apple TV+ and Netflix. And I need to have Dolby Atmos. I use these so I don't wake anyone in my house. on the TV or on my iPad Pro. And I can focus on my accounting class even in a coffee house in the city 🌆 with its NC. Love mine. Just got mine replaced because since I got these in 2021 They have been buggy and losing connection. The new ones under warranty made me love it more now. These are amazing for movies 🎥and shows. I feel things move behind me and hear things above me too. True surround from Apple. Can't wait to see what they do next for streaming.
I found the same lightning-to-headphone jack adapter on Amazon for $9.58.
Great video. Think I’m picking these up in Space Grey!
Nice video thanks. I guess the problem with headphones is that not many people use it for work purposes! Majority of people want something for music. I tried these headphones and I found the noise canceling and music quality to be better than Sony. But it doesn’t worth that much money for what I may use it for. I can pay 60% less and get Sony and it does a very good job.
That’s kind of the point of this video. Sony’s don’t take advantage of the Apple ecosystem. This may not seem like a big deal but to those of use who use multiple Apple products, the AirPod Max integration is awesome. There are features you can’t replicate with other headphones. Btw, I own Sony MX4s as well. They are great for music. But I can get that experience and more with my AirPod Max.
I always like your relaxed and very clear presentation. Your review of the AirPod Max based on your personal use over the past few weeks was very interesting and informative. I currently love my AirPod Pros but I’m going to grab the Max now.
👍
Ecosystem is king 👑 the auto start stop when you remove the headphones and the automatic switching between iPhone, Apple TV, Mac and iPad is a major advantage over any of the competitors.
I recently grew OUT of the design and look of the AirPods max’s just from seeing them in reviews and I didn’t expect that. I also heard the sound quality(which will forever be subjective between each person) and it’s the only thing I really care about but there were other headphones that sounds better to me for my taste and preference of music. When it comes to headphones, everything outside of music quality mean very little to me(subjective).
Then AirPods Max is not for you. Live long and prosper. 🖖
Yeeeah, kinda noticed that a couple minutes ago.
I own a pair of AirPods max, Bose qc 35 ii, Bose 700, and at one point I had the Sonys xm4... Bose qc 35 ii and 700 are definitely more comfortable (long term use), than the max. But the max audio is so crisp!! and the auto switching is sweet too. so I keep my apple AirPods max mostly for home use, while I take the qc 35 ii for travel.
Unfortunately this is the first Apple product I’ve ever returned. The weight was just too much for long term use, giving me neck pain. I agree with all the ‘other’ uses but I can’t recommend them.
I’m sorry but these things are only considered heavy from a RELATIVE standpoint when comparing them to OTHER headphones. They are Not a heavy THING. Seriously, if your neck can’t handle them, you need to start weight training or something. Or maybe tell your doctor at least because that’s not normal.
@@aaronkelley3865 facts
Thanks a lot Chris. I was going back and forth between the max and the MX5 and when you mentioned the lightening to jack cable, that helped me to seal the deal. I wished I watched your video a week ago!
A large amount of the iPad community actually talks about how paperlike is not good, especially in comparison to cheaper competitors. Dave Lee has a great review on it.
I dig your videos and your take on these headphones. SO MUCH BITCHING about them out there and I dig that you can describe things and share you opinion without attacking. Great video!
I do appreciate your obvious loyalty to Apple products...I agree with you that they are the BEST products out on the market today and the ecosystem that AirPods Max join works incredibly well together so that the consumer can get the best media experience. Apple for life...it's worth it. Nice video.
Glad I took the plunge. It is sooooo worth it!
I had to return mine, my ears couldnt handle the pressure sensation.... had dizziness after using them.
Great review. Been wondering about how to buy them or not. Im going to spend the money, even if its 750 dollars in Norway.
900 in Australia 🤦🏽♂️
Nice review, Chris. I bought them last week. With the latest update, no problems at all. No weigth issues and a perfect sound.
Great perspective, I ordered mine a couple of weeks ago they arrive next week so there seems to be a strong demand for them.
Music sounds better after adjusting headphone accommodations in accessibility in my opinion. Apart from that, I was not aware how noisy my environment was before using Airpods Max. 👍 And it is so easy to switch between devices.
Listening to this video trough my blue AirPods Max.
Fantastic review! Thank you. You use them exactly the way I intend to use mine (mostly office phone calls and background music) when they arrive, so this was EXTRA helpful. Cheers.
Glad it was helpful!
Best headphones I’ve ever used. I absolutely love mine.
Great video. Ordered mine but they don't arrive until feb 21. But my idea of use case was what exactly as you illustrate.
Got mine yesterday!!! WOW !!!! Apple does it AGAIN!!!! Before you knock them , USE them ..
Ayye you jam Andy Mineo. You just became much cooler in my book. Thanks for the review, I’m one step closer to getting some for myself because of how well you’ve ‘sold’ them.
It’s funny, I agree with everything you said here and like you have gotten a lot of flack. It was tough for a minute to drop the cash to get these, but I couldn’t be happier with my work/personal flow using these. Like you said, outstanding sound, ANC, comfort, quality, and the seamless switching really sets them apart for my use case. After having them for a bit, I couldn’t be happier. Putting them on at home when I need to knock something out without distractions is a sweet experience, and the hear-through is on another level!
Sold! Listening this through Airpods Max :)
Love this review 👏🏾
I use headphones probably 80% of the time at home and it’s most likely more than that. The only time I listen to music is typically only in the car going to and from work. At home, I’m playing games, school, watching movies, tv, etc. Big media content consumer as I’m doing right now with my Bose 700’s and iPad Pro. I’ve thought about buying these since I’m a big Apple user but I’m worried about the battery life and the lack of a “case.” I can see Apple bringing the gyro to the Apple TV with the rumored upcoming new model. It would make sense to bring that feature to all main devices.
Just ordered! Delivery Mar.1-5☹️
Good on ya mate, love your practical attitude and assessment!
Excellent points. The fact is many of us spend more time on TH-cam and watching videos and movies than listening to music. You are the first reviewer to point out this important fact.
My main concern is longevity, will they last? They won’t last as long as hi end wired headphones which last for decades, but at this price point they need to last at least 10 years before the batteries start giving up etc.
This review so fits my usage of headphones. Makes sense. It’s okay that they don’t work for everyone. There are many great options. For me, I am looking forward to these arriving soon.
Excellent video, but I think the excuses for why Apple TV lacks spatial audio don’t hold up. I love using my headphones with the Apple TV in order to watch without disturbing my wife. And you don’t REALLY need gyroscopes in the device to enjoy spatial audio. I know this because I actually tried using spatial audio on my TV by hooking up my stationary iPad to a TV output with an HDMI cable and just switching the audio output to my AirPods Max, and it was still an amazing experience. Much better than just connecting my Max to the Apple TV.
Next version of Apple TV will support spatial audio. This is a killer feature that Apple must add for big screen TVs. Apple TV and AirPods Max with spatial audio support provides a relatively low cost Dolby Atmos surround system for a movie fan and AirPods allows you to share that audio with another AirPods Pro or Max. Date night at the movies can be every night in the comfort (and safety these days) of home.
Hi Chris! I agree, they’re great headphones. I still don’t understand why so many are up in arms about them. I’m glad you brought up the headband getting dirty dilemma others have bemoaned about. I, like you, have had no trouble with my white band getting ditty despite wearing products in my hair. Great review! Keep them coming.
Do you also get some pressure while wearing them? (Probably due to the noise cancellation) If so does it go away?
This review is spot on! I love it. I watched it when it first came out but then decided to watch it again and still couldn't agree more with you lol
Great review
Do you have a 5.1 or atmos speaker system? Spatial audio sounds NOTHING like that. You get head tracking, but there is no depth, nor any rear channel further than a few inches from your head. True multichannel creates a sound field that is bigger than your room, opening up the sound so it can feel like you're in a cathedral or outside. You don't get that without primary depth cues. A Smyth Realiser can sort of do that, but all the AirPods can do is pan stuff right and left as you turn your head. It is possible to do with headphones and a good processor, but the iPad with AirPods don't do that because there is no attempt at HRTF.
can we use it while it's charging with the cable?
The black look basic and just like any other black headphones out there! The white/ silver look very sophisticated, classy, rich , expensive, ect
this video is kinda changing my mind, but i think i'll stick to buying the airpods pro, even after waiting a year for the airpods max!
The price man ! Everything else is kinda sweet
Yeah you still can’t go wrong with the Pros... number one they’re way more portable and secondly the only thing you’ll be losing out on is probably a little better noise cancellation and a tad bit better audio quality.
@@thaBootyologist Buy what you can afford. Live within your means. AirPods Pro are excellent Bluetooth noise canceling earbuds. If they do it for you then that is fine. No one is forcing anyone to buy AirPods Max.
@@db4a I already have the Pros... I was just sharing my experience from what I know about them already to the OP
600 is dirt cheap in the Audiophile world. 🤣 We look down on peasants who wear these lol. These are the new Beats of the high end audio world. They’re the new HD650s for casuals. Still wish I had them, they look great and special audio is unique.
Been wanting these headphones ever since they came out, been using airpods first gen ever since they came out and they are still holding up, sadly the price tag is what is holding me back, but maybe after my first gen aren't even usable anymore I might upgrade
On the fence between the silvers and the space gray
grey for if you get sweaty and dirty a lot and silver if you dont get them dirty
Space Grey all the way.
Green!
I love mine and I just got them
Just got mine, I’ve also taken them off assuming I had the programme playing of my iPad. Spacial audio on these things are crazy! I like the hinges on the joints to helps the longer lasting more comfortable fit
How are you finding them one week later? Worth the purchase?
Will, it greatly reduce the LOUD screaming of a neighbor's tandem of a 2-year old girl and her 1-year old brother? I live in a condo complex with construction noise, a nearby airport, all sorts of opportunities for NOISE REDUCTION, NULLIFICATION? For me, a retired professional (I looked forward to a peaceful time, where I could read, play guitar, relax) after 50 years of challenging scientific projects, solving medical problems. Comments?
Very good review! Objective and reasonable. I believe “realistic” is the word I would choose the best. I’ve watched/read a lot of reviews with people complaining about the most asinine things. ‘They’re too expensive’, ‘they weigh too much’, ‘the case is dumb’, etc. Quite honestly, those complaints are weak in my opinion. I’m not buying these for the case, I’m buying them for the functionality and sound quality. All in all, it was a great review. Keep up the good work!
Sounded more like an Apple commercial than a review.
I jump into the Apple experience with these and previously buying Sony was perfectly ok . Glad I did what you say is my thoughts too
I would expect the next Apple TV to allow for spatial. You can get spatial when connecting iPad to TV with converter dongle
Another amazing review @Dailytekk. After your review I decided to purchase these. Thanks for giving your time and insights as always.
What brand of phone case is that? I love the colour, where can I get one? Oh….and I love my AirPods max, best headphones I’ve ever owned 👌🏻
Best review yet.
I really like the headset but I wished it was more portable and not have that case, if it was that it would be an instant buy
Great review. While I do think these are very expensive, I thought the same of the AirPods Pro and I use those every day now. Well worth the price for me. I have watched a lot of reviews and they all seem to come at these from the same angle. I am not an audiophile. I am not over analyzing any headphones. I need them to be the best for my use case. You hit on many of those points. I do watch movies with my AirPods Pro using my iPad Pro. I wish Apple TV took advantage of spatial audio. Maybe the next version I guess... I am still on the fence about dropping $550 on headphones, but being so into the ecosystem, I feel like I am more likely to drop $550 on these vs $300 on the Xm4's from Sony. We will see...
There actually is a way to watch spatial audio on your TV. It requires a physical dongle from your iPad/iPhone to your TV. It won’t work over AirPlay. You’re essentially watching your iPad, but with the video signal transferred to the TV. It’s not ideal but it works. Perhaps the next version of Apple TV will be locationally aware and will be able to tell your AirPods where it is.
