Yeah, I read all the reviews and comparisons saying the Sony was better in terms of sound and noise isolation (and it was cheaper too), but you're right about the comfort bro. The Airpods Pro feel so light, they practically don't feel like I'm wearing them at all!

Hahaha, yeah, but don’t worry, I won’t go to bed wearing them or something, hahahaha...

I was also thinking if it drops off and you don’t notice it haha...but anyway, does it fit perfectly so that won’t happen? I’m thinking if I should get 1 myself

Haha, bro, I'm just exaggerating about the buds' comfort and lightness, I'm pretty sure you will realise it if it falls off laugh.gif

I've been wearing it while doing a marathon of The Witcher last night - the comfort is outstanding!

Cool bro. Now I'm even convinced to buy 1. thanks brows.gif

Guys and gals, I'm actually contemplating between the decision to purchase the airpods max or airpods pro. Wanna see what you guys think here, hopefully can help me out.

The reason I'm contemplating is because of a few reasons:
1. It seems there aren't many users of the Airpods Max, so I'm not sure if it's really good/ worth it for me to buy it.
2. There's the comfort question, where I'm not sure if which is more comfortable (Heat, pressure on/ in ears)
3. Is there going to be a refresh for the Airpods Pro? If so, when will it be?

I'm well aware that both of these products are quite different in terms of pricing (and a very big difference at that!), which tends to point that the Airpods Max is better but ultimately, I'm just trying to get something that I will really like and use often.

Any help here or thoughts would be appreciated smile.gif

If you're not in rush, there is a new version of airpod coming out together with iPhone 13 next month. The price of current versions airpod will have some adjustment perhaps.
*
Yeah....but that's the airpods 3, which I know I won't want. Even after price adjustment, I'll still be unsure which I want between airpods pro and max sweat.gif

If budget is not a problem, then just see what you are looking for. If you want comfort and better sound quality the obvious choice is the Airpods Max. If you just listen music on the go, going for workouts or many other activities that requires the size of Airpods Pro than it is the no brainer choice.

Budget is not a problem but of course I want my money well spent icon_rolleyes.gif

Thanks for your input!

I have both AirPods max and AirPods Pro.

I only use A.Max when I’m lying down on the bed, relaxing and just wanna listen to music. Because for me headphones are heavy, and trust me when I say AirPods max is a heavy headphones as compared to the other headphones in the market. It’s solid, the clamp is a bit tight, and yes your ears will definitely get heated up after a while. Will your neck get tired after a while? Personally, for me yes. But the noise cancelling is amazing and I do enjoy the quietness during my meditation.

There are other equally good headphones in the market at half the prices, like Bose or Sony. The only good thing about AirPods Max is the ecosystem so that it can integrate with Apple Devices easily, and also spatial audio. But you can live without those actually.

A. Pro I use it for phone calls and working out. But it is still not very stable for me when I jog, I constantly need to push the earbuds back in. Maybe it’s just the fitting problems, but I believe can be easily solved with extra accessories that we can buy via Shopee.
*
Heya, thanks for the opinion! It's really great hearing from you who owns both at once.

Yes, I'm looking at Apple products because of the ecosystem and I heard of how good the ANC are on both of these, so definitely going to get either 1. At least now I have a better picture of the usage for each...just need to think through how I am going to spend most of my time using which product thumbup.gif

for me..it depends on how you gonna use it..i personally will only wear the A.Max at home and A.Pro for working/calling in office...

Do you keep the Pro in your ear for full day when you're in the office? Is it comfortable after prolonged usage?

I have the max. And i love it. Weight is heavy especially the first time using it but u will get used to it.
Initial use u do feel the pressure from the clamps but overtime it will loosen up.

But the most important thing for me when using the max is the sound quality is really not bad. Spacious and bass is solid to me. I m not bass head.
I might consider the pro as well since my Jabra iem is dying.

I see…that’s some great feedback from you. Thanks! What do you usually use it for and how long do you have them on before you feel any discomfort?

From online reviews, its better than airpods. Still slightly inferior to airpods pro especially on ANC. But the price is really good. On another note, Airpods Pro prices are a few hundred more when there is promo. i think you can get it now around 800-ish ?
*
I think the lowest we can get for Airpods Pro now is RM879 from Shopee but Machines official store selling RM889 hmm.gif

Not sure the price good or not….

That's cheap! They have vouchers? I only saw cheapest is RM2099 before applying any vouchers hmm.gif

Then I also saw on Shopee Airpods Pro cheapest is RM829 before any vouchers

Pretty good price. Hope you like it though.

I personally hated it myself. Kek. But it has good ANC for sure.

I still can't decide whether to buy Airpods Pro or Max now leh confused.gif

How ah? My usage usually is for online meeting calls, occasionally bedroom listening to music/ watch videos. I think not worth to go for Max right? icon_question.gif

You can go and try la. But AirPods Pro is very convenient thanks to its small size and music is decent.

AirPods max is freaking heavy and big. I personally have headaches using it. I have both headphones and earbuds. I use earbuds more when I’m on the go and headphones just to listen in my house, when I just wanna close my eyes to relax. I don’t think headphones are nice for jogging but I do notice people using them…. Kinda weird though, I mean it will get unstable and dislodged, no?
*
Yea....I don't think headphones are comfortable for running as compared to earphones. For my usage, most probably I'll go for airpods pro.

Don't wanna buy something and under utilize it, in the end keep it aside to collect dust shakehead.gif

9.9 sales really tempting me to buy stuff ranting.gif

What are you mainly using it for? Its good for music and calls, and its the best for apple devices since its within the same ecosystem.

Those are my exact usage...calls, online meetings & listening to music/ watching youtube on my iPhone

Guys, I don't know if it's my problem or what, but I placed my order for the airpods pro on 9.9 night, and now the status in Shopee is still "Awaiting seller to ship your parcel".

Is this even normal? Although I know in the status, it says "Seller to ship by 15-09-2021", but I'm freaking out now. Anyone bought on 9/9 too and has actually already received theirs?

Edit: I bought from Machines official store, so definitely it's a legit shop

You can call them up? Facebook message? If not then you could cancel and walk in?
Cause if its within their shipping date then they do still have time to prepare.
*
Cancel and walk in is definitely no-no, cause I won't be getting at the much cheaper price from Shopee hahaha.

But yeah, I messaged them on Shopee, so shall see what news they're gonna tell me (if they reply at all)
