The Apple AirPods Max in an elegant Starlight finish are over-ear headphones designed to blend high-fidelity audio with a comfortable, modern fit. Each ear cup houses an Apple H1 chip, working alongside a system of nine microphones to provide active noise cancellation and a transparency mode that lets you hear your surroundings when needed. For a more immersive experience, personalized spatial audio with dynamic head tracking creates a three-dimensional soundstage, while adaptive EQ automatically tunes the music to the shape of your ear. These headphones feature a refined build in Starlight with a knit mesh canopy and ear cushions made from over 90% post-consumer recycled polyester, ensuring a lightweight feel despite their 385g weight. You can manage your listening experience using the Digital Crown for volume and playback, or the dedicated button to switch between noise control modes. The device is powered by a battery that lasts up to 20 hours with noise cancellation active, and a quick five-minute charge gives you about 1.5 hours of playback. Depending on the version, the AirPods Max connect via Bluetooth 5.0 or a USB-C cable, with the latter supporting lossless audio for those who prioritize absolute sound purity. The package includes a Smart Case that protects the headphones when not in use, along with the necessary charging cable and documentation, making them a versatile choice for anyone who spends long hours listening to music or watching movies.
