AirPods Max 2: Here’s what rumors say is coming next

Normal "low risk clickbait rumor". Predict something for 2+ years. You can make up anything, and if people remember the project is delayed, or a supplier in China failed to reach proper quality, or whatever fit making another article with the same emptyness of content. And as rumour go, that's not e

Design is how it works | Apple

Nor the ones who put the charging port under the Magic Mouse. Nor the designers of the AirPods Max bra carrier.

Apple’s upgraded AirPods Max 2 headphones now available for pre-order with April 1 delivery

I absolutely cannot believe that they didn't fix the headband ("canopy"). The way it gets so saggy, useless and uncomfortable after ~a year of use must be one of the biggest unaddressed Apple hardware design failures in modern history, and is the reason why I can't use my AirPods Max despite liking

Apple designs products so you feel socially pressured to pay for the latest tech

All companies update their designs to keep in touch with the latest trends and styles but apple plans and does this with malicious social intent. They purposely style their products so you can tell who is on a last gen device and socially label them.

Example 1: AirPods. Super clear trend here. If

Are my expectations too high or what?

AirPods Max is an awful name for over the ear headphones. But I agree - The QC line (and XM line) are named atrociously.

Nothing Headphone (1) Repair Fee 😞

dang. I mean that I bought it on Amazon, and I would have assumed that the Americas would have some sort of 1-year Limited Warranty on Nothing electronics. The problem with Apple is that, especially for AirPods Max, they are not customizable as for their settings and that they personally don't appea

My Favourite Black Bag 🍓🖤

Do you like the case for the AirPods Max? I have the AirPods Max first Gen and I’m not sure if there’s any size diffs between that and second Gen but what keeps me from having it in my everyday essentials is it’s so bulky

Best ANC headphones for Apple users: AirPods Max 2 vs Sony WH-1000XM6 vs Bose QC Ultra 2

I chose the Bose QC Ultra 2. I got an Open Box-Like New set for $360 at Best Buy. If the AirPod Max 2 had a better headband and didn’t have that annoying volume dial then they would have been my choice. The Sony is garbage. Stay away. It’s pretty, but it’s horribly uncomfortable. I have very normal
