Thats 386,2 gram for the rest of the world.

386 grams, the extra 0.2 grams is not only irrelevant it's non existent because the process of converting from one measurement standard to another never increases the precision of the measurement.

Using 3 digits of precision also avoids being temped to use the rather niche ,2 convention when claiming to embrace a region as large as the rest of the world.

Might as well be 3862 grams considering how much they hurt to wear for any length of time. I was also hoping this update would improve the ergonomics, but no. Still too heavy and no mention of any improvements to the headband.

  • I think you'd find quite a difference between 386,2 g and 3862 g, especially when wearing it on your head.

    • Yes. Sarcasm.

      I have a pair of the first generation AirPods Max. They leave dents in my scalp if I wear them for any real amount of time. I've been an Apple person since the 1980s. This is one of the most disappointing Apple products for me ever, and I really don't want to know how much $$$$$ lifetime customer value I've contributed to Apple's bottom line.

  • I had the same reaction to the originals. They just hurt! One of my kids swiped them and I never used them again: I wanted to like them but they were almost as uncomfortable as my Vision Pro
