I do the same thing with my APM; the other day, I wanted to use them but they wouldn't connect I tried reconnecting them and I got the three-blinker amber sign with no white light afterward. They will not connect to anything, and on the Apple support community site, tons of other people are dealing with the same thing, which supposedly has something to do with a pinhole inside the cup and moisture. I've charged them overnight and did almost anything anyone would do. My last resort is the freezer method I learned from the Apple community forum, so hopefully, that helps. If not, my headphones are dead for sure, so basically watch out

Dang bro your content is so clean. Really good video

[@guylainedesmarais3248]

Ok, so my take : I’ve had the AirPod Max since august 2021 and I still like them a lot. They are very confortable (even though I’m VERY petite), excellent build quality (mine still look like new), great sound sound really good. BUT… I also got the latest AirPods Pro recently. And I have to say that unfortunately the technology in the AirPods Max is now obsolete. I agree, they still have their qualities, but Spatial Audio and noise cancelling are not up to par compared to the new generation. So, are they still great? Yes, and I still use my Max almost all day, everyday at work (open space office…). But there is NO way they are worth the fulll price now. Although it seems like they’re never going to come, I say wait for the new version. Or try to buy the current version on sale. Just for context, I use the Max’s for listening to music, in the office, or while travelling (planes), while I use the Pro’s when walking, in public transportation, at the gym. So they both have their specific usefulness for me. Can’t wait for the new Max to come out!!!!

I’ve had the AirPods Max for a little over a year now, I bought them the night before a ten hour plane ride and they’re honestly a game changer. As a college student they’re a daily necessity, I don’t leave the house without them. Noise cancellation is great I wear them while studying, walking to class, eating lunch, I even started wearing them to the gym and the experience really isn’t that bad. Yes they are expensive but keep your eye out for refurbished pairs. I got mine from Best Buy for about $100 off and that’s still a lot of money but I genuinely have not once regretted the purchase.

THe Maxes completely disconnecting from my devices is definitely one of the most annoying things about these. Ever.

[@JoleneLin78]

Great feedback/review video! Hmm I often wear mine watching videos etc in bed (to sleep) when I swivel mine they automatically go to sleep without the case. There’s probably a setting for this and it has been an ease to use, I haven’t had mine dying ever from lack of battery and I plug them in to charge whenever I can.

[@EveretBaxtor]

When I choose a bag I always look for practicality, it needs to match the majority of my wardrobe and be able to hold my essentials, and the kislux delivers just that.

[@krishdeepmann2649]

Ive had mine since 2021 over the three years I've had the bluetooth board fail twice. Ive been told it's mainly due to moisture inside them which causes them to fail, they're struggle to keep moisture out due to the magnetic ear muffs. I would say sound quality is very good from all ranges. however the fact that I've had it fail twice with the same problem is alarming. The extra weight due to the metal does hurt my head and ears after about 2 hours. I think personally I can't get over the price, I bought them as I have an iPhone and MacBook which allows such easy connectivity, but I may go for Bose or Sony in the future.

[@vladyslav135]

I just sold my white AirPods Max for 400 euro, and bought smaller AirPods Pro 2 Type C.

[@Hangman281983]

Thank you for such a wonderful review. I have been dreaming about these headphones since 2020, but the price, then and now, is, to put it mildly, biting. At the moment I am the owner of Bose Quiet Comfort 35 headphones. I won’t say that these are bad headphones, but if the ear pads become unusable due to sweat and it’s not always possible to replace them, you know, it’s annoying. As I understand it, AirPods Max ear pads do not have this problem. The only advantage of the Bose Quiet Comfort 35 headphones is the presence of a wired connection if there is no way to charge. Airpods Max, as far as I know, are deprived of this opportunity because even if they are zero-wired, the wired connection will allow you to listen to music. As for weight, probably after Bose, Airpods Max will be a little heavy, although to be honest, sometimes I got tired of Bose.

[@JayJay-sk3iu]

The connectivity issues are real and infuriating. However, it seems like it’s only an issue after 1-1.5 yrs, and not caused by not using the case. I’ve had 2 pairs of Air Pod Max’s and both had huge Bluetooth connectivity issues after 1 yr+. I got AppleCare for the 2nd pair, and Apple had to replace the left earcup, which I guess is the source of the connection issues. The Genius Bar employee seemed to indicate it’s a common issue, so it’s likely substandard parts/a design defect.

[@crazyidiot5309]

The way the Airpods Max work is that the dual H1 processors are connected by a lightning-type interface in a connection that goes through the headband with pogo pads on the inside of the cups that really have the spring loaded pieces making contact with those pads. The problem is that nothing is shielding that place where trash and dust can get into and all around that connection. What I did to fix mine is that I took the earcups off with the sim-eject tool, cleaned the big metal stems and metal contacts with a q-tip with 99% isopropyl then when that dried I took another q-tip and put a very very light layer of dielectric grease on each side of the contact pads and re-assembled them. They work better than when they were new. No more random reboots, no more disconnects, no more connection problems at all that I won't have because of firmware updates. Fixes them completely.

Hey so I know this comment is quite old, but you might be dealing with corroded pins between the headband and the earcups. Try taking the earcups off the band by using a sim eject tool in the little hole near the top under the removable magnetic earpads. Then take a q-tip with rubbing alcohol (near 99% is best) or contact cleaner without lubricant, and scrub both the pins of the headband and inside the hole where the headband connects carefully but thoroughly. Then click the earcups back onto the headband. This helped me, maybe it helps you. Have a good life!

I’d never had this product before but I got it today from Amazon prime sale with a price 394.99$, I think it’s worth it despite it being almost 4 years product. I’m a AirPods Pro user. I love it just like AirPods Pro. I love the sound and noise cancellation.

[@boxedfridge7943]

I’m in the same boat, I got them on Amazon for like $350, I’m a college student I use over ear headphones to work and study and have heard great things.

[@xhelizh]

hey I never expirienced the disconnecting issue after long time of not use I had them for 2 years now and I don't see any problems and it even has 2 really small dents

[@joemichael5155]

My nephew has these. I like them but I won’t buy them until Apple puts USBC on them. I have the new Bose Ultras and they’re great as well. They have a better case, USBC, on/off button, and they even come with the 3.5 to 2.5 mm audio cable. Got them on sale at Best Buy.

does it work on other apps other than apple music or apple tv like youtube or amazon music or spotify

[@nehasharma-gd9jg]

They are 100%worth! I love these , it’s a product of you have it and use it then you know how amazing they are 👍🏻

No one cares

[@SocietyOfOne]

Going to Germany in a couple weeks so was thinking about copping these. I already have Air Pod Pros 2nd Gen but the Maxes look pretty sweet

[@natalilubbenova]

Please check out the new Sonos Ace headphones. I wanna hear a review about them, because their other products are amazing!

[@akshobramkumar5993]

got these as the beats+pro weren't available at the store near my place. but man is the audio better than my airpods pro gen 2

[@mwaiwathu]

How have you been dealing with the condensation issue? Had to replace two pairs that died because of that. but South Africa can get quite humid I guess.

[@GregStew]

Nice review. I’ll wait for the next version.

[@AndrewYouTubehandle]

Def worth it depending on what you're looking for. £325 second hand. Transparency and build quality are great. Battery health has been fantastic, though 20 hrs is short compared to my sennheiser Momentum 4. Buttons on the max are great. Looks stylish. Case is handy for travelling. I thought the Airpods Max turn off automatically after 15mins. Sennheiser is more frustrating as it turns on and connects when you don't want it to. Sony whxm3 case is how everyone should do it. Sennheiser wins on audio quality. Airpods max win for seamless working with other Apple devices. Great to have the choice. Tends to be bots who are denying people choices. Lightning is a plus for those using iPhones with lightning (in using android and iPhone 13 pro).

I want to spend a good amount of money on a high quality headphones, I have a JBL and they work fine, but I wanted to be able to hear the music in a better quality and also have a better noise cancelling. Thank you for the review, I will save money while waiting for the second gen to see which one to buy😊❤

[@Hman911999]

Im gonna get it today. Waited since last year for them to do an update. now I just gave up. Probably selling them and buying the next gen as soon as they come out

[@Verrium]

did you end up getting them? was it worth it? thinking about getting some too, i would wait for gen 2 but i need them for a flight next month

[@Hman911999]

@@Verrium funny story. Baught them on Amazon. Package arrived. Inside there where no airpods but a fckn scramble game. I got scammed. So now I’m waiting for my money to order them again. They will probably be here in a week or so. I‘ll let you know.

[@Verrium]

@@Hman911999 Think imma just risk it and just order it, Thank you!

[@Hman911999]

@@Verrium my previous message got deleted haha. So ordered them on Amazon but when they arrived there was a board game inside, means I got scammed. Waiting for the refund to order them again then I’ll give you feedback. But I think the only reason for me to wait would be the usb c plug.

[@Verrium]

@@Hman911999 hopefully its worth getting them while it’s cheap since the gen 2 will probably cost more

[@josiejenkins8452]

I just got mine and was fortunate to get it on Amazon during Prime. Enjoying it so far, however, it does feel a little heavy. Hope I’ll get accustomed to the weight…too much $$$ to sit in a drawer.
