Apple now selling AirPods Max ear cushions separately
Apple is now selling standalone AirPods Max ear cushions online and through the Apple Store app, giving the ability for the headphones to be personalized by mixing and matching different ear cushion colors to create a custom combination.
Each ear cushion pair is priced at $69 and are sold in silver, black, green, sky blue and pink. Each cushion has an L and R woven into its 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.
The Apple Post reported in December that Apple would begin selling AirPods Max ear cushions separately, but until now the online Apple Store has shown the cushions as “coming soon.”
Apple launched its new AirPods Max over-ear headphones last year. Priced at $549, featuring a custom acoustic design, H1 chips, Adaptive EQ, Active Noise Cancellation, Transparency Mode, and spatial audio, the wearables quickly sold out within an hour of release, with some colors showing as unavailable until March.
