The AirPods Max were an unsuccessful bet!
Los AirPods MaxApple’s most expensive headphones, have been the subject of speculation and rumors since their launch in 2020. However, the latest news suggests that the Cupertino company could be shelving this product. According to the latest bulletin published by analyst Mark Gurman, Apple has no “significant” plans to renew the AirPods Max after the recent upgrade to USB-C.
Although the AirPods Max have a premium design and sound quality, which responds to a need of a very demanding audience, their price limits them from being a bestsellerlike other members of the AirPods family. Added to this, the lack of significant updates has limited its popularity. Despite this, Apple has decided to keep them in its catalog, although without investing great efforts in their development. Not even in renewing its controversial cover.
The future is uncertain for AirPods Max
Gurman has summarized the AirPods Max scenario simply: They are not popular enough to justify a significant investment. Despite having a niche market, especially among users looking for a high-quality and exclusively designed product, sales have not been high enough to drive new updates.
In the middle of this year, Apple presented the second generation of AirPods Max, which did not at all match expectations after four years of the first version. He just updated them with the USB-C connection and new colors, for the price of 579 euros.
The current AirPods Max offer a high-quality audio experience, but lack some of the latest features of other Apple products. For example, They do not have the H2 chip, which offers improvements in noise cancellation and spatial audio. Additionally, its design, although attractive, may be uncomfortable for some users.
If Gurman’s predictions are correct, We can expect the AirPods Max to remain largely unchanged for years to come. Apple could choose to reduce the price of these headphones to make them more attractive to consumers, but it’s unlikely we’ll see a complete revamp anytime soon.
The AirPods Max represent a risky bet on Apple’s part. Although they are a high quality product, Its high price and lack of significant updates have limited its commercial success. While we may see some minor improvements in the future, it seems that Apple has decided to focus its efforts on other products, at least for now.
