Right before the end of the holiday shopping season, Apple has dropped a piece of thrilling news for Apple lovers. AirPods Max will be available in more than 25 countries with its debut on December 15, 2020. Unfortunately, it won’t be available for Apple lovers in Taiwan until next year.
The Most Expensive Wireless Headphone
AirPods Max is titled as "the most expensive wireless headphones," since it costs USD 549 for a pair. This makes it the most high-end optionamong Apple’s popular AirPods lineup once it is released, sold alongside the basic model Airpods and the mid-range AirPods Pro. AirPods Max is also more expensive than other similar offerings in the business while Beats Studio 3, the product under the banner of Apple, costs only USD 349.

Aim at Delivering a Personal Listening Experience
Despite its high price, one of the most appealing features of AirPods Max is its 40-mm Apple-designed dynamic driver that provides rich, deep bass, accurate mid-range, and crisp, clean high-frequency extension so that every note can be heard clearly. In addition, AirPods Max comes with noise cancellation and Siri intergration. With the noise cancellation function, users can focus on what they are listening to. And with the built-in Siri service, it is able to play music, make phone calls, control the volume, get directions, and even read incoming messages for Apple users.

A Better Battery Performance and Controlling Abilities
Apple promises about 20 hours of battery life before a recharge. Moreover, AirPods Max comes with a soft, slim Smart Case. When AirPods Max is not in use, the users can place it inside the Smart Case that comes with the headphones, and it would enter a low-power mode intended to preserve battery life. In addition, AirPods Max is equipped with The Digital Crown, a function inspired by Apple Watch, with which users could control the volume precisely and play or pause the audio, skip tracks, answer or end phone calls, and activate Siri by scrolling the button.
Connecting the Apple Products
AirPods Max provides automatic switching as well, which allows the users to switch between all Apple Products including iPhone, iPad, and Mac smoothly. When the music is played on Mac, users can easily take a call on iPhone, and AirPods Max will automatically switch over. Another useful function AirPods Max possesses is the audio sharing ability that makes it possible to share an audio stream between two sets of AirPods on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV 4K. The users only need to place AirPods Max near the device and connect with a single tap. How easy!
The AirPods Max is available in pink, silver, sky blue, green, and space gray.
