Pretty decent but these are Lightning cables. Best Buy refurbished is essentially opened box so it's going to be a big YMMV if you get one that still has warranty.
Still better than the eBay lottery where you get replicas in the mix.

I don't own these, but have used them for a week. I kinda defend them for very good sound and incredible aesthetics and build. I think they compare well to the BW stuff, but the $400-500 price is insulting. At this price I think they're really good and I'm kinda tempted

Do it, and think about it later. 😃 Just got one. Will return if condition is bad or sound is not worth it.

Got mine on the last $130 Amazon deal and I'm pretty happy with them.

Edit: lots of salty people who don't believe me so here's the proof:

Best transparency mode of any headphones.
Not comfortable after 30 minutes.
Excellent build quality.
Good integration with apple ecosystem.
Sound is good.

XM4/5 have better ANC

ANC is even better than XM5, but sound quality is just decent to me

Upsides:

Brighter sound (more treble). Bass is much more controlled and less muddy, which is good for sound quality but bad for bass heads. It still performs well for bassy music. I'd say it's a step up in sound quality overall.

Much better control scheme compared to the XM4. Similar noise cancellation and much better transparency mode. Switching between Apple devices is very orderly and predictable.

Downsides:

Much less comfortable, and about twice as heavy as the XM4s. I cannot comfortably wear the APM for more than 30 minutes. After that I can still wear them with some fatigue and discomfort. There is no Bluetooth multipoint. Somewhat worse battery life, and when you have to charge it, Apple's lightning cable sucks.

Conclusion

If you own the XM4, no big reason to upgrade. If you don't - is it worth nearly twice the price and getting a used pair, compared to a new pair of XM4s? No way, the XM4 are better value for sure. But if you want Apple ecosystem and sound quality, the APM beat the XM4. I own both and use the APM 80% of the time, and then the XM4 when the APM starts to hurt my head. Also consider the Sennheiser Momentum 4, which may be the best value of all (but might not have the best ANC).
