The AirPods Max announcement was disappointing — unless you really like orange

AirPods Max new colors.

In 2020, Apple got itself in some hot water in the EU thanks to its proprietary charging connector, the Lighting port. To avoid massive fines, Apple had to change its devices to feature a USB-C port instead, and since then, it's been slowly releasing (and re-releasing) devices with the port. In some cases, it's used the opportunity to bring some great updates, like the AirPods Pro 2.

Then there's the recently announced AirPods Max.
