The Drop: AirPods Max

Fit
🪶 7.5 out of 10
⬛ Not an all day fit due to weight. But extended periods like watching a movie and travel are optimal.
⬛ Over ear cups truly leave ears free to enjoy all of the bass.
⬛ The headband keeds the weight balanced and does not annoy me.

20 Hours with ANC on.
5min quick charge will give 1.5hr listening time.
Newest release uses USB C.

No.
Great for travel due to ANC.
Anything over 5 hours will wear on you.

Smartcase is the only way to power off headphones which is still weird.
This truly shows that Apple knows no one will ever wear this for 20 hours because you want to take them off your head and in turn might as well charge them.
Its weird but there are many 3rd party cases on the market.

True Splurge.
I cant say you need them.
BUT
You would enjoy them for the build and of course sound quality.
