Not as sleek as the AirPods Pro
SUMMARY
Both models deliver equally effective levels of noise-cancellation (though
As mentioned
The ear pressure caused by the ANC on the AirPods Pro is more apparent). And both are comfortable to wear
Though the AirPo
No volume control on the AirPods Pro themselves
Poor fit and poor isolation. And Apple has thechutzpahto charge you $250 for it. Yowch
Final Analysis
Reviewing the AirPods Pro
I'm reminded of that age-old question
If a tree falls in the forest
And no one's around to hear it
Does it really make
Expensive
No on-ear volume controls
ANC and EQ aren't adjustable
Similar performing earphones cost less
Needs more granular ear tips
Force sensors are awkward to use
Charging case is awkward
Higher price tag and no price decrease on second-gen
Rating
4.5 out of 5
Where to buy
Apple AirPods Pro retail for $249 and are carried by these top retailers
Sound quality is a little bland for the price
Battery life is just okay
Silicone tips feel like they could wear out easily
Battery life is a little worse with noise cancellation
Not the best sound for the price
Battery life could be better
Pricey
No companion app
Battery life could be longer
Price
Charges via lightning cable
Design still looks dumb
4 hours listening time
Cost
Lightning cable charging
ANC isn't as effective as some rivals
Battery life is good but not the best out there
Android users don't get all the features
Poor customization options
Especially on Android
They don't come cheap
Fairly pricey
Sound quality is good but some competitors sound better
Unclear if these have better long-term battery life than the original AirPods
Most expensive AirPods yet
No improvements to battery life
Best experience reserved for those in Apple's ecosystem
Limited lifespan of two or three years
USB-C charging should have been used instead of Lightning
I'm still not a fan of the stem look but it is better than the original AirPods and everything else that is good makes it tolerable
Android users lose many of the unique featuresExpensive
Relatively short battery lifeCan be uncomfortable when worn for 2+ hours
Relatively large charging caseMay not fit large ears wellSome may find it hard to get a secure

Easy setup, Active noise-cancelling (ANC) is great, Improved audio over AirPods, Three tips included and 'fitting test' feature for optimum comfort
Powerbeats Pro beat these on the bass front, Only available in white, Music listening time is reduced with ANC, Squeeze gesture takes some learning
In our first hour of listening we are incredibly impressed with the ease of setup and quality of sound that the AirPods Pro deliver. Active noise-cancellation makes a huge difference to ambient noise, making these in-ears far more capable than the origina...
