Apple to sell AirPods Max Ear Cushions for $69, suggesting they are interchangeable
Apple has added replacement AirPods Max Ear Cushions to its online store, saying they will be ‘Coming Soon’ for $69, suggesting the Ear Cushions will be interchangeable, like the various straps available for the Apple Watch.
As spotted by MacRumors, Apple is now listing AirPods Max Ear Cushions online. The replacement cushions are sold in the five colors the headphones are available in, with a video shared by Apple showing how the cushions magnetically attach to the AirPods Max, suggesting customers can choose any color combination to personalize their headphones.
Each cushion has an L and R woven into their lining to show which ear they are for. The cushion will magnetically attach to the anodised aluminium cups, part of the AirPods Max’s structure.
Interchangeability hasn’t been confirmed by Apple, but there doesn’t appear to be any obvious reason why cushions would only attach to matching colored headphones.
