I think the issue is that the defense of these seems to be that it has its pros and cons compared to the XM4, but that ignores the fact that one costs double what the other does.

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.
I have both. I LOVE my XM4s but they are very different products.
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.
They absolutely 1000% do not, and I like JBL. They make budget-tier headphones that sound better than Beats, but that's about it.

Massively overpriced headphones for people who don't know there are better options out there for cheaper, and far better options in the price range.

Everyone knows they are overpriced and that there are better options. But at the same time some people think it's important what others think about them and that's who apple targets....

Calling the Airpods Max as headphones is like calling the iphone a phone or Tesla a car company. Personally I love it when an innovative company changes the game. Some people just like to watch the world burn.

If you're going for a walk and not listening to anything, why don't you just rest the headsets on your shoulderLMAO?

I am using Max for more than 4 mos now. I don't have experience with other headphones. I use airpod, airpod pro and max interchangeably. For everyday calls and conferences I prefer airpod. When I working in yard moving grass prefer airpod pro but when I want to immerse in music or movie I prefer max. There are some plus and minuses with max. I use it with iPhone, apple tv or Mac so interface is crazy easy. The sound quality and noise canceling are amazing. Max are tough and sturdy with all metal construction. The only complaint I have is that they bit heavy with all metal construction and headband could be little smaller and tight for people with large head. Yes apple products are always pricy but people pay for how they work with other apple products. It is no brainer if you are in apple eco cycle but not if you are looking at other points (price, weight etc…)

These things make you look like you have potatoes on the top of your ears glued with a headband. It kind of reminds me of Princess Leia. Besides, for this price you can get a real pair of headphones.

JBL makes wireless bluetooth headphones that absolutely destroy these in sound quality and cost less than 50 bucks.
LMAO "destroys"? Might want to check your hearing because it's not even close.

I wish they made the top part differently, it just looks horrible with that mesh...

My Sennheisers cost 4 times what this garbage does so no, price isn't the issue. Only broke people who want to look rich buy something like this. Just don't spend that rent money big man. Hopefully these will be a step up from your beats
Just say you're broke bro.

The green AirPods Max are out of stock now, but I did check P.C. Richard & Son and all of their AirPods Max colors are $448.98 except for space gray which is $494.88. I believe it's free shipping too.

I went ahead and price matched the sky blue color with Best Buy and was told that we have until January 16, 2022 to price match with another competitor if we find a lower price or return it before that date.
