The editors didn't like
A case that fully encloses the headphones for maximum protection
Apple needs to include a high-quality cable for wired connections
Apple needs to include a charging brick
Hardware controls are in an awkward spot
Not the strongest noise cancellation out there
EQ is kind of bland and bass-heavy. Basically no user control over EQ
The case is just not a case
Price-to-value ratio is arguable
A bit on the heavy side
Not water or sweat resistant
Too pricey
Expensive
Sound signature and Adaptive EQ/spatial audio aren't for purists
No user-adjustable EQ
Button placement makes it easy to misfire when adjusting fit
Smart Case does little to protect the headphones
The case — enough said
Controls are easy to bump when removing headset
Audio quality could be better
Transparency mode harsh on highs
No aux cable included and Apple's is expensive and fragile
Very expensive
Heavy
Not meant to be worn with a lot of movement
No real way to turn them off
Shorter battery life than the competition
Smart Case is cumbersome
Not protective
No on/off switch
Smart case provides no protection
Bulky design which can be fatiguing to wear
Need to purchase a lightning to 1/8" TRS cable separately
The price is just too high
Headphones should have a power button. Not having a power button is just insane
The case
If you can even call it that
Is an absolute joke. It doesn't protect anything and looks horrible
Some of the AirPods Max's best featur
Heavier than many competitors
No 3.5mm jack
Wired listening requires $35 cable
Case is an abomination
Apple Music can't make the most of these headphones
No 3.5mm headphone jack becomes a pain
Uses a Lightning connector instead of USBC
Proximity sensors and voice assistant activation don't work on Android or Windows
No aptX or LDAC high quality codec support
The smart case is absolutely terrible and pr

Summary
Apple went full Cupertino with its first wireless noise-cancelling headphones. The company offers great sound and feature
Hervorragende Soundqualität, Großartige Geräuschunterdrückung, Makellose Verarbeitung, Hoher Tragekomfort, Steuerung per Digital Crown
Sehr teuer, Offenes Case und fehlende Faltbarkeit erschweren Transport
Mit den AirPods Max veröffentlicht Apple seine ersten Over-Ear-Gegenstücke zu den beliebten Stöpseln. Dabei überragen die Kopfhörer im Test bei der Soundqualität, der großartigen Geräuschunterdrückung sowie einer sehr hochwertigen Verarbeitung. Trotz ihr...

Sehr einfaches Bedienkonzept, Gesten zu lernen ist nicht nötig
Mit 386 Gramm sehr schwer, 131 Gramm schwerer als die Sony WH-1000XM4
Der AirPods Max ist ein erstklassiger Kopfhörer, der klanglich seinesgleichen sucht. Mit seiner einfachen Bedienung und einem guten Sitz weiß er ebenfalls zu überzeugen. Wer als Apple-Fan 600 Euro erübrigen kann, macht alles richtig. Alle anderen sind mit...

Trotz der überdurchschnittlich hohen Anschaffungskosten, dem hohen Gewicht und der Tatsache, dass die Airpods Max den vollen Funktionsumfang nur zusammen mit Apple-Devices bieten, sind wir von ihnen begeistert. Einen derart guten Sound in Verbindung mit e...
Abstract: Wer an der Anlage im heimischen Wohnzimmer dem HiFi-Genuss nachgeht, wird eher zu einem offenen Modell greifen, das luft- und schalldurchlässig ist. Dadurch entstehen weiträumige Klangbilder und die Kopfhörer sind durch die Belüftung meist gut für lange H...
Abstract: Die AirPods Max sind in vielerlei Hinsicht „typisch Apple“: So ist das Zubehör etwas fragwürdig, und nur mit anderen Apple-Geräten lassen sich alle Funktionen nutzen. Dafür gibt's aber auch eine grandiose Verarbeitung und Haptik, fortschrittliche Technolo...

Abstract: Seien wir ehrlich: Dass du an dieser Stelle einen Vergleichstest aktueller Kopfhörer mit aktiver Geräuschunterdrückung findest (meist „ANC“ abgekürzt, Englisch für „Active Noise Cancelling“), hast du Apple zu verdanken.Im Weihnachtsendspurt 2020 entschi...
Verarbeitungs- und Soundqualität überzeugen auf ganzer Linie. Die Spezialfeatures der AirPods Max in Kombination mit iOS 14 sind technisch erstklassig und von der Bedienbarkeit sind sie trotzdem gewohnt zugänglich. Der „Pro-Sument“ in mir vermisst eine ko...
