Apple AirPods Max purple over-ear headphones Model: TDEJ

Pros

• No independently verified advantage is available for this item.

Cons

• · Same-segment teardowns report plastic ear cups and headband with a metal-look coating rather than an aluminium shell.
• · Digital Crown and buttons in the replica segment are plastic with coarse finishing and mushy clicks that miss inputs.
• · Teardowns found ballast weights glued or fitted inside to match the original's heft, indicating non-equivalent internals.
• · One teardown found a single microphone and a cosmetic right ear cup, consistent with this listing's microphone-free spec.
• · Fragile internals reported: soldered audio connections detaching, a loose antenna wire, and a simple C-clip headband hinge.
• · Ear cushions described as firmer and less dense than Apple's memory foam, with fibres shedding out of the box in one teardown.
• · Firm head clamp reported uncomfortable in extended wear in a hands-on comparison.
• · Counterfeit variants lacked functioning ANC and transparency; the control was decorative or only slightly reduced noise.
• · A detailed replica review reports a chemical/plastic smell from the pad material and ears sweating quickly.
• · A side-by-side comparison found clone finishes can read darker than Apple's colourway, so the delivered purple may differ from the photo.

Fit notes

Same-segment measurements put clone weight near 407–410 g with a firmer clamp and noticeable compression in long sessions. The listing gives no headband or pad dimensions, so fit on a specific head is unknown. Note the listed colours are silver, black and blue, though the title says purple.

Buy if

You want the AirPods Max silhouette in purple for a wired 3.5mm setup and accept that shell, controls and pads are third-party hardware, per same-segment teardowns. You are buying it as a look-alike accessory rather than as an Apple audio product.

Skip if

You need wireless playback, working noise cancellation or a microphone for calls — this listing is wired and microphone-free. You also skip it if weight and clamp matter: same-segment clones measured roughly 407–410 g with firmer head pressure than the original.
