Is Sony WH-1000XM5 Worth It in 2026? ($399 Silence vs. Apple's $549 AirPods Max)

Is MacBook Air M2 Worth It in 2026? (vs. M3 Air and MacBook Pro)
The M2 Air is silent, lasts 18 hours, and handles everything 90% of people actually do. The $1,099 question: does the M3 or Pro justify paying more? Usually not.
