It depends. For me, for example, the sound quality, the ANC, and the wearing comfort matter a lot, which is why I wear the AirPods Max more, because the AirPods Pro hurt my ears over time. But if you don't mind these 3 points, I see no reason not to buy the AirPods Pro, because they are very compact and almost as good as the AirPods Max, especially for the price difference. I hope I could help :)
