Pretty Great, Pretty Loud, Pretty Expensive, Pretty Heavy, and Pretty

AirPods Max still boxed and in the plastic wrap.

I’ve spent some time with the AirPods Max after a long wait, and I could wax rhapsodic about how much I like them. But M.G. Siegler, writing at his site 500ish, wrapped it up better than I ever could in the title of his post alone: Pretty Great, Pretty Loud, Pretty Expensive, Pretty Heavy, and Pretty’:

That leads back to the main purpose of these things: the sound. Again, I’m hardly the person you should listen to in this regard, but they are fantastic to my ears. Yes, better than the QC35s and certainly than the smaller AirPods (as you might hope given the price). I’ve turned them up loud, they not only get loud, they do not seem to distort.

It’s well worth a read.

Other reviews that I’ve read or watched and largely agree with:
