1. Custom Design
Every part of the AirPods Max is curated to provide exceptional audio performance for the user—from the canopy right down to the ear cushions. The knit mesh canopy which spans the headband is breathable and is designed to distribute weight and reduce head-on pressure. The stainless steel headband frame provides strength, flexibility and comfort regardless of head shape and size. And finally, the telescoping headband arms extend smoothly, staying in place to maintain your desired fit.
To add to that, each ear cup is attached to the headband using an innovative mechanism that balances and distributes ear cup pressure, allowing it to rotate, fitting the unique contours of any person's head. The Digital Crown is inspired by the Apple Watch, and makes sure to offer precise volume control as well as to play, pause, skip tracks, answer or end phone calls and even activate Siri.
