Phoneshop Guy, 08 Dec 2020No sane person in their right mind is going to pay the ridi... moreHow you know Sony is better? What you say then if these are actually better? Let me guess you going to be very quiet. Those things which reads Apple site in AirPods Max feature site sounds really interesting. There’s stuffs which no headphones have done so far, atleast not Sony. Compunational audio is the key thing here. And that will propably give Apple a room to do all kind of things with these.
This is kind a same than when Apple rumoured to do their own Chip, Apple haters said how crappy it’s going to be and there’s no change they can compete with intel. And what happened, M1 chip is getting really high praise all over the tech world.
What if these headphones do same for wireless audio?

No sane person in their right mind is going to pay the ridiculous asking price for these headphones when you can actually get a MUCH better pair of headphones from Sony for far less money. Apple should stop trying to blatantly rob their customers blind. Absolutely pathetic

Wily2020, 08 Dec 2020” i am an audio enthusiast and i judge headphones by sound... more"i judge headphones by sound"
that goes for proper audio brands like senn, beyer, akg, zmf, audeze...etc
not for lifestyle brands who make headphones and that was implied.
you took my word and twisted it and did your HAHA!!!!!
by your logic if someone says "i am going to brush my teeth" that means that he brushed his teeth but didn't rinse his mouth because he did not explicitly say that.
man you know what....you win. ...congrats on your future purchase...i don't wanna argue with brand fanatics.

This is pure, unadulterated Apple, and not in a good way. And I say that as someone who normally appreciates Apple.
These things are easily £200 more than they have any right to be, I can’t think of anything I would rather spend that kind of money on less.
Swing and a miss Apple!

Tucking Fypo, 08 Dec 2020How do u know it won't sound crap. have u heard it? ho... more” i am an audio enthusiast and i judge headphones by sound and not by logo.”
Currently it looks exactly that you are judging them by logo and not by sound, haha :D
Comparison for 660 is pointless because those aren’t wireless. These are competing for wireless headphone market and time will tell how they sound in comparison. I don’t understand why people feel so big urge to bash everything when no-one have even used the product. I guess it’s in human nature. I will judge them after i hear them and see reviews and comparisons. Pointless to say anything else before that really, except that they are really expensive for comparison to most known wireless headphones like Sony, bose etc.
We are propably already getting more info about these this week, so can wait few days right?

I just see a cheapo no brand over-the-ear phones just like this!
Seems Apple bought it over and selling it at premium to rich idiots for the cash.
Smart move!

Wily2020, 08 Dec 2020Funny comment about product no-one have heard. Why not just... moreHow do u know it won't sound crap. have u heard it? how do i say it will sound crap? the name of the company and its past releases LOL. stuff like airpods do sound crap and outside the cult everybody accepts it.
also why comparison to sennheiser 660 is pointless? is it not a headphone or is it because it is a miles better product at a lesser price. both are headphones and at the end sound quality matters TO ME at least, maybe for some others the logo matters for that essential ego boost and maybe for them it is apples to oranges comparison. i am an audio enthusiast and i judge headphones by sound and not by logo.
you do you but don't teach me audio.

Tucking Fypo, 08 Dec 2020as an audio enthusiast, I am sitting here with my sennheise... moreFunny comment about product no-one have heard. Why not just wait the reviews and tests to hear how they sound? With that price for sure these won’t sound crap, that’s ridiculous thing to say. Also comparison to sennheiser 660 is really pointless. These are completely different product.
