Midnight Starlight Blue Purple Orange

AirPods Max are designed for an unequaled comfort that creates the optimal acoustic seal — fully immersing you in every sound.
Press the Digital Crown to play and pause music, take a photo or video, or mute and unmute yourself on calls. Press twice to skip between tracks or end calls, or turn it to precisely control volume.⁵
The canopy spanning the headband is made from a breathable knit mesh,
distributing weight to
reduce on‑head pressure.
The cushions are crafted with acoustically engineered memory foam and a custom-designed mesh textile — creating a fit
that is the foundation of incredible sound.
The beautifully anodized aluminum cups feature a mechanism that allows each
cup to rotate independently
and balance pressure.
The telescoping arms smoothly extend from the stainless steel frame — staying where you set them for a consistent fit and seal.

Superior sound down to a science.

Transformed by the H2 chip, AirPods Max 2 deliver more stunningly detailed, high‑fidelity audio. A new high dynamic range amplifier adds even more headroom used by the custom‑built driver to reveal richer bass, more natural vocals, and precise instrument localization across a wider soundstage.

Adaptive EQ uses inward‑facing microphones to tune music to your ears in real time. And with new Custom EQ, three intuitive controls let you easily personalize your perfect sound.

Lossless Audio and ultra‑low latency audio preserve every detail of the original recording when connecting AirPods Max 2 to your device via USB‑C — allowing listeners to experience movies and music the way they were created. Gamers can also benefit from ultra‑low latency audio, which eliminates response delay and makes games feel even more immersive.⁶

Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking⁷ gives you a theater‑like experience with sound that surrounds you for movies, TV shows, and games. 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.

Unmake some noise.

Improved Active Noise Cancellation.¹

Now powered by the H2 chip, AirPods Max 2 get more immersive by reducing even more undesirable noise — up to 1.5x more Active Noise Cancellation than the previous generation. New computational audio algorithms counter more external sound with equal anti‑noise — without compromising sound quality.

Adaptive Audio⁴

automatically adjusts the levels of noise cancellation depending on your environment. From quiet offices to noisy coffee shops, Adaptive Audio ensures an optimal listening experience. Or press the listening mode button to switch to Transparency — letting outside sounds in so you can interact naturally with your surroundings.

Talk about communication skills.

Live Translation³ powered by Apple Intelligence.

With Live Translation, communicating with people speaking different languages has never been easier. After a simple press and hold of the listening mode button, AirPods Max 2 translates the language the person is speaking into your preferred language.

Conversation Awareness.⁴

When you start speaking, Conversation Awareness automatically lowers the volume of what you’re listening to and amplifies the voices in front of you — helping you stay connected and making conversations feel natural. And when you’re done talking, your music seamlessly returns to its previous volume.

Loud Sound Reduction and Personalized Volume.

On by default in Transparency and Adaptive Audio listening modes, Loud Sound Reduction automatically helps reduce louder environmental sounds while preserving the audio quality. And Personalized Volume⁴ learns to adjust your volume across different environments over time, ensuring the perfect listening experience no matter where you are.

Effortless.
With encore-ready power.
