Apple's AirPods Max are the most frustrating piece of hardware that I've ever wanted to almost love… There, I got it out of my chest. Let me explain,.. I travel a lot,.. 150,000 miles a year kind of a lot. It's been the story of my life since I was 3, and for the past 20 years, it's a sort of requirement I've set before taking any job. I've always been kind of like that George Clooney character in Up In The Air, where I only buy toiletries in small packages, I spend insane amounts of money in specific kinds of luggage just because they’re easier to drag, and I use Peak Design bags and tripods almost exclusively because of the amount of thought that's put in to making them compact. Point is, I value ergonomics, practicality and thoughtfulness before buying any product, and I'm willing to spend more for it. Obviously with this pandemic we all had to take a break from travel, but it's the main reason I felt the only way to finalize the review of these Max correctly, was to wait until I could fly again with them. Sound should be one of the most important reasons for you to buy a pair of headphones, but for anyone willing to spend so much money, it's not everything.
