XMs are at $248. Far for some, not so much for others, just putting it here.

My suggestions:
QC 35: For best comfort, longer use, price, overall good sound and ANC and simple app/modes.
Sony XM4s: For a bit better ANC, sound and app features/customization.
Airpods: For apple ecosystem, some extra sound features and for flex.

Personally, I tend to use Bose way more often just because of the comfort, can't be beat. Sony is my second preference with better ANC or sound at times. Airpods are not comfortable for long use, hurts my head/ears, but everyone has different head and ears, so to each its own. It was a good flex show for a while but then I gave them away as gift.

No comments on the case they come in, because F apple for that stupidest thing ever.

Just priced match it at Target (In Store) and additional 5% off with RED CARD savings $408.48. Tax is based on the $408.48 too and You get 5% discount on the Apple Care too (Reg. $59) if you're interested.

Don't try to do price match with Target online order, their system has some limitation and will apply your 5% within the price match. Therefore you're not getting the additional Red Card savings. Recently I experienced it with the magic keyboard so I cancel that order.

I was told return policy is 14 days for the Apple Care. The Headphone can be returned by 1/9/22. Buy now and do not open. Wait until 11/15 when Costco has $50 off (Current price is $489.99) if it goes lower to match Sam's Club $429.98 today. It could be $380. Holding out and see what Costco will do.

Same experience here. I think the audio quality of the Airpod is a tiny tad better (must do A/B testing with both side by side to detect the difference, and some of it could be due to tuning or EQ), but the comfortability and portability is far more inferior. I would say the Airpod is nice to own and use it like 20 minutes at a time (anymore and the clamp start to hurt your skull) while the Sony can stay on your head for a pretty long time and would be your go-to headset.
Got the sony for $175 new so for me the aipod max would be worth it about $300- $350 (but it can not be the only headset if i want long listening session, unlike the Sony)

QC35 - micro USB - pretty much a deal breaker for me haha. I've made a rule to not buy anything that doesn't have a USB-C. And QC45 is disappointing. QC35 otherwise reigns supreme except for phone calls. It's horrible for that when you compare it with Bose 700 NC and AirPods Max.

Lightening port unfortunately can't be undone just yet.
