Design is how it works | Apple

Nor the ones who put the charging port under the Magic Mouse. Nor the designers of the AirPods Max bra carrier.

Does Apple even Care? Apple AirPods Max 2 vs. Sony WH-1000XM6 - SoundGuys

But the thing is I don’t think anyone questions what the APP max can do. Everyone praises the sound and ANC, the most important things. I think it’s what you DONT get that is the issue. I mean yes the multi pairing and switching, definitely great and magical, but why can’t they do basic things too?

Does Apple even Care? Apple AirPods Max 2 vs. Sony WH-1000XM6 - SoundGuys

XM6 really does work better for multiple devices but only 2, which is annoying if you’re a regular Apple TV user. I have it paired to my iPhone and iPad, and the switching is instant, even more reliable than my old AirPods Max were.

Which shows how much more durable they are than the APM. I really want to like the APM but in over 2 decades of owning Apple products I’ve never had anything with as many issues as the APM.

Apple’s upgraded AirPods Max 2 headphones now available for pre-order with April 1 delivery

I absolutely cannot believe that they didn't fix the headband ("canopy"). The way it gets so saggy, useless and uncomfortable after ~a year of use must be one of the biggest unaddressed Apple hardware design failures in modern history, and is the reason why I can't use my AirPods Max despite liking

I wear glasses : which one will be better between AirPods Max and Bose QC ultra ?

So as you know glasses interfere with passive isolation which plays a huge role in blocking the noise and undermines the ANC

As such which material is best for that ? AirPods Max material or Bose fake leather ?

My qc45 don't block nearly as much noise as they used to on day 1

Are Best Buy’s refurbished Mac’s trustable?

I bought some Open Box AirPods Max from Best Buy and had to return them because I got this message upon pairing them. I wouldn't rule BB refurbished out, but I'd require a larger discount to consider it because of the possible inconvenience of having to return it.

What popular thing do you absolutely not understand the hype about?

This is, of course, "your mileage may vary" territory, but I had the opposite experience with Airpod quality. I had the first generation Airpod Pros and three months outside of warranty they developed a crackle in each bud. Took it to the Apple Store and it was a known issue with an extended warrant

Accidental Tech Podcast - 690: Turn Left at the Next Tree

A gentle pet peeve of mine are complaints about the heaviness of the Ultra. Unless you have a degenerative disease or a disability of some kind, anyone who can’t take 20-25 grams of extra weight on their wrist I think is making something up. I’m no muscleman but I barely notice it on my wrist. You k

What's the most ""unnecessarily expensive"" thing you own that turned out to be worth every cent

I’d say my PS5. At the time I bought it I did not have the money to do so but my PS4 broke and I got it and a 70 inch tv on my credit card. Use both daily still. Even if it was a stupid purchase. Opposite? AirPods Max. They’re nice. But not 500 dollars nice.
