Description

Apple AirPods Max 2 Wireless Over-Ear Headphones, Starlight · product code MHWL4ZM/A

AirPods Max 2 are Apple's over-ear headphones rebuilt around the H2 chip, with an Apple-designed dynamic driver and a new high dynamic range amplifier that add headroom for deeper bass, more natural vocals and a wider soundstage. Active Noise Cancellation is up to 1.5 times stronger than the previous generation, Adaptive Audio adjusts it to your surroundings on its own, Transparency lets the world in at the press of a button, and Conversation Awareness turns the music down when you start to speak.

Personalised Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking anchors film and game sound to your device, Adaptive EQ tunes music to your ears in real time and Custom EQ lets you set your own balance. Plug in over USB-C for Lossless Audio and ultra-low-latency gaming, or ask Live Translation, powered by Apple Intelligence, to translate a conversation in your ear. The Digital Crown handles volume and calls, and the battery runs for up to 20 hours with noise cancellation on, with five minutes of charge giving 1.5 hours. A Smart Case and USB-C cable are included, in Starlight.

Up to 1.5 times more Active Noise Cancellation than the previous generation, with computational audio algorithms that counter more external sound without compromising sound quality.

Legal guarantee

Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.

Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:

  • do not match the description;
  • do not function as intended.

Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:

  • free repair or free replacement;
  • in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.

Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.

For more information on your rights in a specific country, scan the QR code below or ask the seller. europa.eu/youreurope/guarantees

What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:

  1. Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
  2. Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.

Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.
