They can even be used to create and mix spatial audio content with head tracking, a feature that Apple is particularly promoting for musicians and producers.
Another notable improvement: reduced latency. In Game mode, games on iOS, iPadOS and macOS provide a smoother and more immersive experience.

New smart features
The H2 chip also allows AirPods Max 2 to incorporate several smart features that were not previously available on this model.
Among them are:
Adaptive audio
Automatically adjusts the level of noise reduction and transparency depending on the environment.
Détection de conversation :
When it detects that the user is starting to talk to someone nearby, it lowers the volume and reduces ambient noise to make the conversation easier.
L’isolation vocale
Improves voice clarity during calls by blocking outside noise.
Volume personnalisé :
Learns the user’s habits and automatically adjusts the volume according to their preferences.
One of the most notable features is Instant Translate, powered by Apple Intelligence, which lets you translate conversations between different languages when you’re speaking face-to-face with the person you’re talking to.
These headphones also include features useful to content creators. For example, they enable studio-quality audio recording for interviews, podcasts or music, and they also serve as a remote control for the camera: simply press the Digital Crown to take photos or start recordings from your iPhone or iPad.
Apple has also added excessive ambient noise reduction, which helps protect the user from noise without altering the sound experience.
Furthermore, Apple emphasized that the AirPods Max 2 are part of its Apple 2030 environmental strategy. These headphones use recycled rare earths in all their magnets, recycled polyester in their tips and recycled metals in several internal components. In addition, their packaging is made entirely from recyclable fibers.
