Apple Explained How To Store AirPods Max To Conserve Headphone Power

In early December, Apple introduced the first full-size TWS AirPods Max earbuds of its own production. It is claimed that the earbuds can last up to 20 hours of playback, however, until today, Apple has not commented on how the AirPods Max keep the battery in standby mode.

Apple today updated its AirPods Max support page on its official website.  According to the new information, AirPods Max has two standby power modes: low power and ultra-low power.

When the user unplugs the earbuds and leaves them stationary for 5 minutes, the AirPods Max goes into a low power mode, in which the Bluetooth connection and Find Me function remain active. However, after 72 hours without using the earbuds, the ultra-low power mode is activated, which better conserves battery power, but disables the above functions.

A different situation is observed when using the included Smart Case. AirPods Max go into hibernation mode as soon as the user places them in the Smart Case. Plus, Ultra-Low Power Mode turns on after 18 hours of AirPods in the smart case.

Thus, it has now become obvious that Smart Case is not only a pleasant bonus to purchase, but also has a practical application. Anyone who is ready to shell out 63 thousand rubles (according to the official data of the Apple website) for headphones, we recommend keeping them in a case to save charge.
