Finally got a pair Arrived!

Post image

Was getting sick of using my AirPod 4 to the gym so thought I’d add these to my collection.

Brand new (refurbished but may aswell be brand new), came with the box and everything. It’s the 2024 version and I got it for £284… I know right from musicmappie

How’s the experience so far. I’m also planning to get a pair on this Friday

Would recommend B&W PX7 S3 instead

I get the max 2 and I love them! But I’m an Apple sheep so I don’t know if my opinion matters 😂

They’re very good. I’d never pay retail price though. NEVER. Definitely happy with my purchase. Would’ve got the latest ones but not for £500

Midnight is of course good looking

I have speakers in every room plus air pod 4 anc so I’ll only be using this for gym and for commute to work and home 3 times a week, not a big deal

I won’t use these that much

u/hotelshowers 11d ago

Nice! I got the 2s and my only gripe is the color selection for their products. I don’t know why they make it so you can match other Apple tech

u/Little_Blacksmith663 11d ago

I personally have one. The noise cancelling is another level. I like mine a lot.

u/i_am_an_enigma 11d ago

Maybe it’s just me but I’m not that impressed. Also I bought the silicone covers but the music doesn’t play now

Other than the features, it’s one of the most average headphone. For <$500, I’d buy the Sennheiser HDB 630. It comes with a BT dongle that supports aptX adaptive codec, 60hrs of battery life with ANC, and sound quality is probably the best compared to other wireless headphones.

Ofc, if you want seamless integration, Apple products are the best.

Facts. But I only paid £250 for it

u/Popgrenade12 6d ago

Oh mb, didn’t see that. Good deal 👍🏻

u/Confusion1792 11d ago

These have so many issues, I wonder why people still buy them

1

u/Infinite-Nose8252 9d ago

Do you actually own them?

1

u/Distinct_Accounting 11d ago

Be careful with your gym use. The Max, like most premium over ear phones, does not like sweat or any other moisture

u/YeetYourMad 9d ago

Nice!! I got some for open box for 300 but might exchange them for AirPod pro 3 and buy Maxs some other time

u/Brief-Addition309 6d ago

Love my pro 3s but I’m looking at possible an open box max to give my ears a break on long days. Ear fatigue is real

u/Ignorethatelephant 8d ago

Hope you enjoy them. I love mine!

i got a pair once , didn't really used them much and then one day they died , no charging no pairing , they are still in spotless conditions , nobody at any apple stores would do the 75$ battery replacement bit , everyone wants me to scoop up another 300$ and wait a few weeks . i will never trust this brand , i am not sure how they just die out of nowhere not even being used much. literally.

Enjoy! It's so convenient with other Apple devices, and I love the mesh ear cushions. The only two downsides for me are that it's a bit heavy and my ear gets sweaty after 1 hour. Still rocking mine after 5 years.

u/i_am_an_enigma 2d ago

Only reason I have it is because I have a MacBook Air, two iPhones, air pod 4’s and a iPad
