Apple earlier this month announced AirPods Max, innovative wireless headphones that bring the magic of AirPods to an over-ear design with high-fidelity sound.
AirPods Max combine a custom acoustic design, H1 chips, and advanced software to power computational audio for a breakthrough listening experience with Adaptive EQ, Active Noise Cancellation, Transparency mode, and spatial audio. AirPods Max come in five colors: Space Gray, Silver, Sky Blue, Green, and Pink.
Andrew Griffin for The Independent:
If you know one thing about the AirPods Max, then it’s probably the price. And with good reason: Apple’s new headphones cost £549… And so if there’s one question the AirPods Max has to answer, it’s surely: are they worth it?
The answer, almost impossibly, is yes. The AirPods Max are not going to be for everyone, not least because Apple already offered such a great set of audio products. But for those people they are for – and if you are not already put off by the fact they are Apple headphones, and they cost £549, that might well be you – they are a vastly worthwhile purchase.
The sound is astonishingly good. Rich, rounded, full, wide, or any other adjective you wish to use… And the smarts are just as impressive. To anyone familiar with the AirPods Pro, those features will be familiar – they are exactly the same – but technology such as Adaptive EQ, easy connections to any Apple devices and Spatial Audio transform the listening experience almost as much as the sound itself.
The AirPods Max are astonishing headphones, adding a power, space and clarity to music that brings it freshly to life… At £549, these headphones are premium, but they sound premium, too.
MacDailyNews Take: Another slam-dunk review amidst a series of rave reviews for Apple’s “astonishing” new headphones!
Getting a pair right after getting my second vaccination dose, which will allow me to travel (and actually go to a store).
You are not allowed to travel and go to stores just because you have been vaccinated. You must cower in fear and obey the experts, wear your mask SLAVE.
At this point, we only know that the vacccines are about 90% effective in preventing symptomatic cases. We do not know whether they also prevent asymptomatic infections that can be transmitted to others who are not vaccinated. Even if they do, do you want the shopkeepers who are currently being reviled for requiring masks to start checking for proof of a second shot instead? It will be more manageable simply to require masks of everyone until the virus threat has been managed by artificial herd immunity.
Only a fool does not fear something that has killed 10,000 Americans in the last three days.
You are a professional liar like Fauci, Covid has not killed 10,000 Americans in three days or three months. And Joe Biden didn’t win either.
And I suppose you think the Easter Bunny has packed 356,743 coffins (in America alone) with candy eggs. If you were right twice a day like a broken watch it would be well over a 100% improvement.

You have displayed a keen scientific example of dissociated logic!
Personally, I’m waiting for the “spatial audio” feature to be compatible with my Apple TV box and/or my big-screen TV set.
