H2 at last — the 2020 and 2024 models both ran the H1 from the original
Identical chassis to the 2024 model: same 386.2g, same dimensions, same $549
Adaptive Audio, Conversation Awareness and Voice Isolation reach AirPods Max for the first time
ANC is up to 1.5× more effective than the previous generation
Lossless stays wired-only — 24-bit/48 kHz over USB-C, not over Bluetooth
Apple retroactively renamed the older models "AirPods Max 1", unevenly across locales
Launched by press release with no event, on Apple's 50th anniversary
Still no power button — standby depends on the Smart Case
