I was waiting for the rumored Apple AirPods Studio to be announced as I intended to get it. But after Apple announces the AirPods Max, I went ahead and bought the Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones instead.
At S$849, AirPods Max is not targeted at regular consumers. I am not an audiophile by any extent, so I would not spend that much money on headphones.

Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 and Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 SE were launched in Singapore on December 2016.
Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 is retailing for S$319 while Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 SE is retailing for S$379.
I am currently using the Bose QuietComfort 15 (QC15), and it is no doubt the best active noise cancellation (ACN) headphones in the market. It is extremely useful especially when you are on a plane.
The Bose QuietComfort 35 (QC35) is the updated model to Bose QC25 and Bose QC25 is the updated model to Bose QC15. What makes Bose QC35 stands out over Bose QC25 is the wireless capability.
Sudio Regent is the first wireless headphones from Sudio. It is also my second Sudio product.

This is the latest Reference headphones to be added to Klipsch Reference Headphones lineup. The first being the Klipsch Reference R6/R6i In-Ear Headphones which I got it last year.
GoGear is a brand that not many people heard of. A quick Google will lead you to Philips GoGear Wikipedia page which states that Philips GoGear is a series of small flash memory and hard-drive-based personal electronic devices from Philips. The line includes digital cameras, digital audio players, and audio recorders.
GoGear is sort of related to Philips because their parent company is Gibson Innovations. Its other portfolio of brands includes Philips, Philips Fidelio, Trainer, Onkyo, and Gibson.
