So if anyone has lost control of their life, it might be YOU. I have full control, a decent job and can therefore afford the Airpods Max. Quality has its price. And in the high-end sector, CHF 599 is nothing. That's where it starts at CHF 1000+. The price is absolutely justified. If you can't afford it then don't buy them. No one is forcing you to. I don't go around badmouthing a Ferrari just because I can't afford it.
I would have said the same thing a few weeks ago. But after trying unsuccessfully to find good headphones with ANC AND a microphone suitable for video calls that connect as seamlessly with various Apple devices as the Airpods do, I'm more than happy about the Airpods Max and willing to pay the high price.
Of course, anyone who has a stable income and can't do shit has no grip on life. Get him a job, then you might have better things to do than study about what other people are buying.
You are completely out of the bag if you are convinced that this thing is worth 600 chf. You must not have all your cups and plates in the box any more, because the cream quickly runs out of your head! I wish you a decent brain therapy and treat yourself to another coke!!!!!!!!
