On December 9, the company unveiled the over-the-ear headphones called the AirPods Max to the public. It costs $549 (₱32,990) more than the actual price of the iPhone Se which starts at $399 (₱26,490)

AirPods Max features active noise-cancellation, Apple’s spacial audio technology that simulates surround sound, and a transparency mode similar to that of its AirPods Pro. It has built-in Siri capabilities and also features a “breakthrough listening experience with Adaptive EQ” according to the firm.

Greg Joswiak, Apple’s marketing chief, said: “The custom acoustic design, combined with powerful H1 chips, and advanced software enable AirPods Max to use computational audio to wirelessly deliver the ultimate personal listening experience.”

According to The Guardian, the headphones have a similar computational audio processing system to the firm’s HomePod smart speaker, which tunes the music in real-time, adapting to the shape of the wearers’ face, hair and glasses and promising to produce consistently rich and detailed audio.

They last up to 20 hours between charges and take two hours to fully recharge via a Lightning cable, although like the firm’s recent iPhones, a USB power adaptor is not included. A standard headphones cable is also an optional £35 extra.

When placed inside the included slim "smart case," they enter a low-power mode intended to preserve that battery. The headset can switch between Apple devices, such as iPhone to iPad to Mac.

The AirPods Max, which launches on December 15, will come in space gray, silver, blue, green, and pink.

Indeed, 2020 can be also considered as the year for many high-end gadgets ever produced as trappings of modernity are continue to take the world.
