iFixit disassembles the AirPods Max 2 to analyze internal changes

Specializing in electronic device repair, iFixit regularly disassembles them to assess how easy or difficult they are to repair for the average person. The Apple H2 processor, the only real innovation inside the headphones. The latest product to go under the knife is the new Apple AirPods Max 2, which we detailed in this article, noting improved capabilities and features compared to its predecessor, but an identical design. Is this resemblance also reflected inside the device? According to iFixit, aside from the new H2 processor in each earbud, the internal components of the AirPods Max 2 are exactly the same as those of the previous USB-C model, meaning the same flaws are still present, notably condensation buildup in humid environments. Furthermore, Apple still provides neither spare parts nor a repair manual, leading iFixit to give this version the same repairability score as its predecessor: 6/10.
