They recently went on the market the new AirPods Max, headphones with a slightly exorbitant price. However, there are a number of features that make it a good idea to buy or gift these AirPods. However, there are also a number of reasons why it is not convenient to spend this money. We analyze the best but at the same time the worst of these headphones.
There is little left for the Three Wise Men to come to our homes and bring us what we want so dearly. If you have not done the letter, you are still on time. AirPods Max is a great gift and if you hurry you can still have them on time. There are a number of characteristics that are worthwhile but are also your Achilles heel. We analyze why they are worth it (and why not).
What is the best and at the same time the worst of the AirPods Max
For a price of 629 euros, What is clear is that the best of the AirPods Max are the aesthetics and Apple's signature on the new headphones. Of qualities they are well served but nothing that we do not have in other models.
Comfort
When you consider the possibility of buying over-ear headphones, one of the characteristics you look for the most is the comfort of the headphones. The Airpods Max They are a real joy for the most demanding.
Although the comfort will vary from person to person based on the shape and size of the head and other factors, but it is true that the AirPods Max are incredibly comfortable. But they are not the only ones in their modality. We have other brands that are equal to or better than these AirPods Max.
Noise Cancellation
The quality that may be most important to users is not unique to AirPods Max. It is a quality that has been included in the Airpods Pro but in the supra-aural headphones of the Californian company not one of the best qualities.
If we compare with other models such as Sony's, we may be surprised that we do not want to assimilate, especially after having paid 629 euros.
Audio quality
The sound profile of the AirPods Max is well balanced and not too aggressive towards the highs or lows. With H1 chips in each earbud, AirPods Max uses computational audio to adjust what you're listening to in real time, customizing it for the fit on your head and other factors. Although we don't recommend turning the volume up too high, we found that the sound quality remains solid even at higher volume levels, delivering clear sound without distortion.
However, if we compare these qualities with those of a professional range AKG and with the same price, the AirPods Max, they are far from being the best.
Speaking of the H1 Chip it takes it but not the U1
If we talk about this chip, they are the key component that integrates the AirPods Max in the Apple ecosystem. The H1 chip supports easy pairing and seamless audio switching between devices linked to your iCloud account. If you're listening to music on your iPhone and then pick up your iPad to start watching a video, the AirPods Max they can automatically switch to start playing the audio from your iPad.
However, it does not carry the U1 chip. In essence, an Ultra Wide Band system for spatial detection. In practical terms this chip allows to identify a device with greater precision.
As we can see, they are qualities that are very important in AirPods Max but, which in turn can be found in other models and at a lower price.
You will not regret buying these AirPods Max Also, that's what Christmas is for.
By the way, Happy Holidays. Have a great time. 2021 is here. Finally!
