message: I've used some Maxell products and I would say their CD-Rs are one of the best. No errors, detects everytime you put them into the CD-ROM drive.
What else does Maxell do besides those IT/Media Storage products? --chapter1 09:00, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

message: There was no such cassette as a Maxell "MA-X". MA-X was a TDK cassette. Maxell's most-sold 'metal' cassettes were called MX and (later) MX-S. There were other Maxell metal cassettes, like 'Metal CD' (low-grade) or 'Metal Vertex' (highest-grade cassette Maxell ever produced). But no 'MA-X'. I'm going to correct this instantly, because it's just so plain wrong. Please refer to dedicated cassette websites like www.vintagecassettes.com. And 'Metal Oxide' to describe the formulation of the cassette is also completely wrong, the whole point of 'metal' tapes being that they were oxyde-free. I'm going to correct that as well. The rest of that paragraph is stupid as well, but I don't feel like putting everything right.
Oh, and I agree that devoting the majority of the article to one ad campaign is silly.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.135.32.38 (talk) 23:41, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

message: An eBay seller asserts:
:"Please Beware of people selling cheap China kind Maxell batteries their freshness and capacity is very low. Though they are saying that the batteries are genuine maxell they are not. HITACHI maxell don’t make any alkaline button cell, these are cheap china batteries... You can confirm this with Maxell USA as well. Hitachi maxell Only makes the following numbers in alkaline button cells LR41, LR43,LR44,LR1120, LR 1130. But these numbers also they are selling the fake ones... Original Maxell batteries have a new HOLOGRAM SEALED BLISTER CARD. Which will you see in the picture in my listing. Fake Maxell batteries have a card board type packing and are normally multicolored packing..."
Can any of this be verified?-96.237.15.180 (talk) 14:46, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

message: The whole 'Audio Cassettes' section is utter rubbish full of weasel words. "Maxell's audio cassettes were held in high regard"? Well, maybe yes, but so were TDK, That's (Taiyo Yuden), Sony and even BASF. "Producing some of the finest examples of the standard available"? Possibly, but they also produced some crap, and many of the touted XLII-S and MX tapes couldn't be erased properly and were prone to drop-outs on re-recording. Oh, and the XLII-S wasn't a CrO2 tape, but cobalt-doped ferric oxide. "The ultimate achievement in the pre-digital domestic recording medium"? Ridiculous. Ever heard of reel-to-reel tape? Probably not. R2R beats every XLII-S hands-down. Even Maxell did manufacture R2R tape. 
Finally, Maxell cassettes were available in a lot more different lengths, like C-10, C-20, C-30, C-50, C-54, C-74 and more. As for now, I doubt that Maxell cassettes are still available in C100, C120 or C150. There are still some Maxell cassettes sold, but only up to C-90 AFAIK. And their current offerings, which are all very basic ferric tape, are a far cry from the glory days.--Mottenkiste (talk) 09:51, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
