Need help deciding on first pair of headphones! (alien.top)

Hey guys! So I’m in the market to buy my first ever pair of headphones (that aren’t gaming ones) bc I’m tired of earbuds and have piercings lol

I’ve been reading and reading on the basic I suppose “consumer” ones and have no idea which to purchase.

Atm I’m stuck primarily between Sony XM5 and Apple AirPod max. I’ve also read some reviews of Bose Ultra and QC45 + momentum 4. Price isn’t a huge issue. Just preferably not more than the AirPods (550/600+)

All I use atm are AirPod pros, I have a gaming headset already for my pc and utilize Apple products. Reason I haven’t solidly chosen Apple is because my friend is pushing me to get the wxm5

Any insight would be really appreciated!

If you’re already in the apple ecosystem and are happy with the AirPod Pro. I’d just move to the Max.

You’ll have the best experience overall just sticking with with ecosystem.
