Apple has introduced AirPods Max 2, featuring enhanced active noise cancellation, richer sound quality, and advanced smart capabilities in the iconic over-ear design. Powered by the H2 chip, AirPods Max 2 adds adaptive audio, conversation awareness, voice isolation, and live translation. These innovations expand possibilities for podcasters, musicians, and creators. Features now include studio-grade audio recording and a camera remote control.
You can order AirPods Max from the store starting March 25 at midnight in Starlight Orange, Purple, and Blue. They will be available early next month.
With the incredible performance of Edge 2, AirPods Max are upgraded with up to 1.5x more effective ANC. This gives you the ultimate all-day listening experience, said Eric Treski, Apple’s Director of Audio Product Marketing. The sound quality is remarkably clean, rich, and acoustically detailed. Combined with capabilities like personalized Spatial Audio, AirPods Max 2 deliver a profoundly absorbing experience.
Active Noise Cancellation Gets Even Better
With the H2 chip and refined audio algorithms, AirPods Max 2 delivers active noise cancellation that is up to 1.5 times more effective, reducing disruptive sounds like airplane engines or commuter trains for an improved listening, working, or calling environment.
A new digital signal processing algorithm, tailored for the H2 chip and AirPods Max microphone array, provides a more natural-sounding transparency mode. This allows users to remain aware of their surroundings and nearby conversations without audio distortion.
Highest Fidelity Listening Experience
The AirPods Max 2 features a high-dynamic-range amplifier for clearer audio while maintaining its signature sound. Upgraded spatial audio technology improves instrument separation, delivers crisper bass, and refines mid- and high-frequency responses for a more accurate listening experience.
When connected with the included USB-C cable, AirPods Max 2 support 24‑bit/48-kHz lossless video and audio. This is for music, movies, and games. Having this high-quality, low-latency audio lets music creators use AirPods Max throughout their professional music workflow in Logic Pro and other apps with the USB‑C cable. AirPods Max are the only headphones that let musicians create and mix in personalized spatial audio with head tracking.
Lower wireless audio latency improves the gaming experience with AirPods Max. In game mode, games on iOS, macOS, and iPadOS feel increasingly responsive and immersive.
Intelligent features come to AirPods Max.
The H2 chip introduces a suite of intelligent features, making AirPods Max 2 easier and more intuitive to use. Adaptive audio dynamically adjusts noise cancellation and transparency in real time based on changes in surroundings. Conversation awareness detects your speech, automatically lowering content volume and background noise so you can converse easily.
Live translation uses Apple intelligence to help you communicate with people who speak different languages by translating your conversation in real time.
Voice isolation applies to audio technology to prioritize your voice during calls, making your sound clearer by blocking out background noise.
With the camera remote feature, you can take photos and/or start and stop video recording from a distance. Just press the digital crown while using the Camera app or supported third-party camera apps on your iPhone or iPad. Studio-quality audio recording enables interviewers, podcasters, singers, and creators to capture content with improved clarity and more natural-sounding vocals.
Loud sound reduction automatically detects and lowers the volume of loud environmental noises, helping protect your hearing while maintaining audio quality.
Personalized volume automatically adjusts your listening experience over time based on your preferences.
With Siri Interactions, you can respond to Siri Announcements by nodding your head for yes or gently shaking your head for no, making it easy and private.
