Premium wireless over-ear headphones
The Apple AirPods Max are high-fidelity wireless over-ear headphones designed for listeners who want immersive sound and active noise cancellation in a premium build. They feature Apple-designed dynamic drivers with dual neodymium ring magnets, a breathable mesh canopy and memory foam ear cushions. Computational audio powered by the H1 chip enables personalized spatial audio with dynamic head tracking. The Starlight colourway includes a matching Smart Case.
Upgrade from basic wireless models
These headphones replace entry-level wireless headphones that lack computational audio and pro-level noise cancellation. The jump is worth it when you need up to 2x more background noise removal, transparency mode for hearing your surroundings and seamless switching across Apple devices. Built-in microphones with beamforming deliver clear calls and hands-free Siri access. They are not suited for buyers who require wired audiophile connections or multi-point Bluetooth pairing with non-Apple ecosystems.
Limits of Bluetooth and battery
Wireless audio quality and latency depend on the Bluetooth implementation of the source device. Active noise cancellation and spatial audio processing consume power, yielding up to 20 hours of listening per charge. The 32 ohms input impedance is optimised for efficient mobile driving rather than high-impedance studio amplification. USB-C charging simplifies cable management but does not enable wired audio pass-through. Buyers needing lossless codec support or ultra-low latency for competitive gaming should consider dedicated alternatives.

Questions about this item
What cable does the USB-C charging port on the AirPods Max use?
The USB-C port lets you charge with the same USB-C cable used by current iPhone models, so one cable covers both devices.
How do you pair the headphones with an iPhone for the first time?
Bring the AirPods Max near the iPhone, open the Smart Case, and follow the on-screen prompt — the H1 chip handles the rest automatically.
Can the ear cushions be replaced when they wear out?
Yes, the memory-foam cushions attach magnetically and can be swapped for fresh ones in the same or a different colour.
