Ok, this is strong metal. Hidden outside ridge in cushions transferring most pressure STAGE 5: Last resort There might be better 3rd party cushions at some point. And not necessarily solve the problem.Ĭonclusion: Not going to hack the cushions myself. But until there are 3rd party cushions that have better force distribution, doing it myself would probably look very ugly.

I contacted Apple Support through chat, they suggested mail in. Because this is a first generation product I also wondered if the clamping force on mine was out of spec. I was afraid to ruin them by putting them over a wide object. But it was just too painful.Ĭonclusion: These are really uncomfortable even after 1 month, and give me headache. But expensive headphones like this creating a headache doesn't make sense. Ease of use connecting them to my MacBook Pro and iPhones is great. Day 30: 'Starting to get an actual headache after wearing these multiple days in a row for a few hours a day'.Īfter one month I felt I had to do something about it.See the Apple Card Customer Agreement for more information about ACMI financing.There are quite some threads all over the internet about the clamping force of these new AirPods Max.
