HA ya NAH? $549 WORTH IT?AIR PODS MAX!
O M G! LOOK AT THESE…..
Colour options are the same as Ipad Air: Black, Light Blue, Mint Green, Silver & Pink.
Let me put my conclusion first:
US price: $549
India Price: Rs 59,900
To be frank,It would be a great deal if you could wait for the price drop because $550 is way toooooo much to spend compared to my most favorite Bose NC700, and also Sony XM4 Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Headphone.
Despite the high price, the AirPods Max lacks two things out of the box that most headphones normally come with: a wall adapter (not surprising) and a 3.5mm headphone cable.
Perhaps, when it comes to Apple brand, it is not about the comparison but it is about the trust factor, security, luxury and comfort.
Anyway, Let us get some insight of Airpods Max now!

About AIRPODS MAX CASE Design: (potentially easy-to-tear canopy)
Just like me, you too might be curious to know what is the idea behind designing such a case for Airpods Max in an interview, the executive said that ‘’Today, most headphones come with large, cumbersome cases, but we travel a lot, so we know how important it is to fit in a bag.’’
He also added that “the case has a structure in which one sheet is cut out and fastened in several places so that it becomes three-dimensional.
And when the ear cup is rotated and inserted here, the headband is exposed. Although it is still in the state, it is judged that it is not necessary to cover it because it is made strong in the first place,’’ the company executives said in the interview.

I used AIR PODS MAX for almost a couple of days, and all I see is that it has become a part of my physical guidance wrapped around my neck (HA-HA). I am not kidding, metal is cold to the touch and a feeling of comfort is to another level (like all other APPLE gadgets). Very flexible, stylish, and undoubtedly makes life easier.
AirPods Max Ear Cushions:
Should you buy spare cushion:

You can comfortably take the cushion off for changing. Hassle-free.
Negative feedback:
I know, I know, a lot of not-so-good comments are circulated in regards to AIR PODS MAX, but isn’t it obvious that when APPLE brand launches any product, the whole attention is grabbed by their super high prices that sounds insane, and instantly the first impression comes with ‘raising one side of the eyebrows’, and very next step is to proof how overrated it is (most of the human tendency).
So, what point I would want to put across is that it is certainly a very comfortable, and will be anybody’s go-to headset but the only issue here is the PRICE. Either you could wait for the price drop, or simply pick any other brand that almost have the same performance but for a low price. YES! Price is the major concern here.
