At this point, it has sort of turned into a beautiful tradition for people to take some time after each new Apple release, roll up their sleeves, and craft some hilarious memes roasting the product. And as you may already know, this week, the company has unveiled their new AirPods Max—wireless headphones featuring high-fidelity audio, active noise cancellation, and other impressive properties. But here's the thing—these new headphones cost a pretty penny, to say the least. $549, to be exact. And even though it shouldn't be that much of a shocker knowing Apple, some people were indeed quite shocked by the price tag. And that's how the meme treatment began.

Some people took it a step further and dived in to do a more thorough investigation into the new Apple headphones. Apparently, there are some more hilarious things about this product. For instance, some folks started noticing how the carrying case that these AirPods Max come with sort of looks like a purse or a bra. The list goes on.

Without further ado, Bored Panda invites you to look through some of the most hilarious reactions roasting the new $549 AirPods Max Headphones.

    I can't even fathom why they'd make headphones with components like gold and platinum and diamonds. Oh, wait... they didn't. Just thought they'd charge as if they had. I see now.

    I used to have a pair of bose headphones (they broke because I accidentally dropped them, but lasted something like 3 years or so) and I can confirm they were AMAZING. sometimes I still dream about the audio quality and noise-canceling.

    Sony has some good headphones if you know what you're looking for (e.g., the MDR-7506 is a classic in the under-$100 category), but Bose is only really good at noise cancellation tech. At least for sound quality, there are many headphones under $300 I'd pick first.

    This individual horribly underestimates the price of a fresh LV, my Speedy 30 is a better investment and it’s $3k lol

    If you're looking for style, buy a pair of Koss Pro 4A headphones. They looked good 50 years ago, and you can still buy them new.
