### Should I buy Nothing Headphone (1) Pro or AirPods Max?

If you listen mostly on one device, we prefer Headphone (1) Pro: it sounded clearer and more open to us, it is lighter, and it costs $399 against $549 for AirPods Max 2. If you live across several Apple devices and want hands-free Siri, AirPods Max fit that world better. Our full review and the comparison on this page set out the rest.

### Can Nothing Headphone (1) Pro connect to two devices at once?

Yes. Turn on Dual Connection in the Nothing X app and it connects to two devices at the same time.
