If the Airpods max were $300 MSRP they'd be an interesting competitive headphone option. But priced the way they are limits any interest in them to a very specific set of customers that enjoy the apple ecosystem for convenience or fashion reasons, and aren't concerned with price. It's a different market than someone looking for good value for quality headphones.
So this sale is a good price for Airpods max, but it's not a good price for a pair of headphones, if that makes sense.
The feature set on the Maxes on they own, sets them apart. The clarity in the mids, surround sound (spatial audio) are much better. The transparency mode… it's almost nonexistent in the XM4s vs the Maxes.
Every once and awhile I like to go on walks with headphones. I would prefer to wear the XM4s on walks, they are lighter. But I can not hear my surroundings.

You are right about one thing, the people that get the most out of these are people in the Apple ecosystem. But then again, the eco system is why we bought these in the first place.
Honestly I love these damn things!
Be honest tho
The sleep dock thing off Etsy is the shit. Worth it

Sound quality-wise they're all within a few points of one another. Noise cancelling I found the AirPods marginally, but noticeably better and transparency mode in the AirPods are hands down the best.
Where they really excel are build quality and comfort. The Sonys and Bose feel like toys in comparison and cheap toys at that. The ear cups are so much nicer and more durable than the faux-leather. Ironically the AirPods ear cup replacement is so much easier (magnets) but seems likely to be less needed.
Audio switching between devices is much better than the Sony which is limited to two devices. My Bose didn't support switching.
The case is rubbish.

With the maxes often it sounds like, you have nothing on. I know this sounds like an exaggeration, but it's very often that good.

Its better than the XM4, but not 500 dollars good either.
Honestly if these were 300-400 MSRP, I'd scoop these up pretty fast
I'd recommend them if you're in the Apple ecosystem.
That being said, I'm really hoping these go down sub-$400 on black friday.
