    AirPod max for exercise?

    I love mine, but I would absolutely not recommend them for running or exercising. They're rather heavy and the earpads will make you hot. Sweat will probably also condense in the ear cups. If moisture is an issue I'd pick something with good sweat/water resistance, and personally I'd go for...

    AirPod max for exercise?

    ...consider using these for gym/hard exercise? They're expensive. They're metal (and easily scratch if knocked/dropped). They have known condensation issues for some users which will be 10x worse exercising. They're heavy. Just...no. If you want over-ear headphones then go for something...

    Hi, everyone! I want to buy the AirPods Max, but I’ve read so many comments about the condensation issue, is that still a thing?

    Is water inside the Apple AirPods Max due to condensation safe or not?

    Weird whooshing sound in headphones, Bose and iPod Air max when no music is on and volume is at 50%

    It's probably sound of the ANC dying from the condensation.

    AirPods Max 2022 condensation issue

    I’ve had mine since early 2021, and I’ve seen some condensation now and then. Nothing’s ever gone wrong with them though, and I have had several closed back headphones with condensation before.

    AirPods Max 2022 condensation issue

    Yes it's a thing. I haven't broken mine from it yet but they build up more condensation than any other headphone I have ever used, I'm talking actual beads of condensation.

    How long have you had them for?

    AirPods Max 2022 condensation issue

    It’s not condensation, it’s sweat, most headphones don’t let you remove the cups so you’d never know it was there.

    AirPods Max 2022 condensation issue

    Ive read that too, but I’m afraid they break after so much condensation.

    AirPods Max 2022 condensation issue

    Since March 2022. If I’m in a cool environment and I’m stationary they’re mostly fine for under 4 hour sessions. If you’re in a warm environment or moving around enough to the point of making your ears warm even slightly then you will see beads of condensation when removing the ear pads.

    Apple AirPods Max condensation issue

    All over-ear headphones will have condensation depending on the person and conditions. It's normal and fine.

    AirPods Max Condensation issue - Safe or it will cause faillure?

    Wow are you guys really using your APM for exercise?! Seems like a recipe for disaster to me, absolutely no way I'd use mine for that! Even if not the condensation, the band and muffs getting sweaty cannot be a good smell medium term.

    AirPods Max Condensation issue - Safe or it will cause faillure?

    Have had these for over a year now and the condensation problem for me happens in colder weather (during winter season of workouts) - the only other time it got wet was when I was doin' the wife with them on and for sure it drenched both the Max and my wife.

    AirPods Max is here! First impressions and photos thread

    Bear in mind that condensation on Over the Ear Headphones is absolutely normal and expected. As the human body produces heat, and the over the ear cans keeps air tighten been heated by human body, it's actually expected that some degree of condensation occurs. It's not AirPodsMax issue, it's...

    AirPods Max aren't very comfortable

    ...around (I love wearing these when cooking for example). My biggest issue is the cups feel too insulated which make my ears hot and form condensation quickly. If the environment is anywhere near slightly 'warm' or my body gets slightly too warm then I have to take them off (I NEVER use these...

    AirPods Max won’t connect or reset

    ...now and they’re back from the dead. Everything is working normally. There’s a lot of speculation online that this is related to the “condensation issue”, whereby moisture - whether overtly visible or not - can build up inside the cups with use, especially if you’re somewhere humid (I’m in...

    AirPods Max won’t connect or reset

    I will give that headband cleaning a try on my old pair of AirPods Max although maybe I have left it too long. Does it come apart and go back together easy?
