Design

A radically
original composition.

The over-ear headphone has been completely reimagined. From cushion to canopy, AirPods?Max are designed for an uncompromising fit that creates the optimal acoustic seal for many different head shapes — fully immersing you in every sound.

The canopy spanning the headband is made from a breathable knit mesh, distributing weight to reduce on?head?pressure.

The stainless steel frame is wrapped with?a soft-to-the-touch material for a remarkable combination of strength, flexibility, and?comfort.

Telescoping arms smoothly extend and stay where you set them, for a consistent fit and?seal.

The beautifully anodized aluminum cups feature a revolutionary mechanism that allows each cup to rotate independently and balance?pressure.

Audio quality

Sounds like an epiphany.

AirPods?Max combine high-fidelity audio with industry-leading Active Noise Cancellation to deliver an unparalleled listening experience. Each part of their custom-built driver works to produce sound with ultra-low distortion across the audible range. From deep, rich bass to accurate mids and crisp, clean highs, you’ll hear every note with a new sense of?clarity.

Immersive listening

To cancel unwanted external sound, AirPods?Max use a total of six outward-facing microphones to detect noise in your environment, and two inward-facing microphones to measure what you’re hearing. Beamforming microphones help isolate your voice on phone calls, so it’s heard clearly?— even in windy?situations.

Hear every detail

The Apple-designed dynamic driver produces a wide frequency range that uncovers the rich details of every sound — delivering your favorite songs with previously unheard texture and?accuracy.

Distortionless playback

Modeled after those in high-end floor-standing speakers, the driver’s dual-neodymium ring magnet motor minimizes total harmonic distortion across the entire audible range. The result is consistently clear playback, even at full?volume.

Computational audio. Key to performance.

With a powerful Apple?designed H1?chip in each cup, our custom acoustic design, and advanced software, AirPods?Max use computational audio to create a breakthrough listening experience. By tapping into each chip’s 10 audio cores, computational audio helps block outside noise, adapts audio to the fit and seal of your ear cushions, and makes movie scenes sound like they’re happening all around?you.

Adaptive?EQ tailors sound to the bespoke fit and seal created by the ear cushions. Inward-facing microphones measure what you’re hearing, then adjust the frequencies of your music to deliver a rich, consistent experience that faithfully reproduces every?note.

Industry?leading Active Noise Cancellation counters external sound with equal anti?noise, allowing you to immerse yourself in what you’re listening?to.

Press the noise control button to switch to Transparency mode, which lets outside sound in so you can interact naturally with your?surroundings.

Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking gives you a theater‑like experience for movies and shows, with sound that surrounds you.¹ Using built-in gyroscopes and accelerometers, AirPods?Max and your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple?TV track the subtle motion of your head, anchoring sounds to your?device.
