@p4o3nix99 3 місяці тому

I've only tried the 3rd gen and the pros, and in my opinion i like the 3rd gen more, maybe its bcuz of the bass

@confidentletter 2 місяці тому

AirPods Max have the best sound quality as there's less reliance on a chip for noise cancellation, bigger build for a larger driver, have a much longer battery life. They're both pretty mobile but the AirPods Pros have a compact design which makes them more optimal for everyday use.

@FrenzyFields Місяць тому

@@confidentletter personally I just don’t like the headsets with the little whatever it is going over my head and it feeling like it could fall of at any moment. Personally I’ve tried all of them but I daily drive the 2’s since they are a great fit. They are just so much more comfortable and compact and they fit in my pocket.

Not really. I have a dedicated pair of my old AirPods Pro 1s for my windows pc. Combined with a decent Bluetooth receiver and a front end UI app, it works very smoothly.

@bykurt_is 3 місяці тому

So somehow all these other bigger channels can’t make a basic review on the AirPods Pro alone. Didn’t even mention the capabilities which is the only damn thing I wanted to know. But when I came here, you set the tone in a way that let me know you aren’t gonna waste time and leave anything out. Literally went above and beyond, so thank you. I knew the pro and 3rd gen would be the ones I’d struggle with. Think I’ll try to pro. Cuz I bought some JBL ones to hold me until I had enough for AirPods. So I kinda learned to appreciate the tips but generally would prefer not to have them. It’s just the features of the pros I want and always wanted.

Thank you so much for this review. Seriously. I have been considering an upgrade from my old AirPods 2 for Black Friday sales and have been watching UKposts reviews all day trying to figure out if it was worth it for my needs. To be honest, when I saw your video time was over 21 minutes, I rolled my eyes - so I played you in the background. Very quickly, you had my full attention. I was riveted the entire time and you actually gave me your opinion without any BS on the comparisons - AND this video wasn't 2 years old... Imagine that! Thank you. the Pros may be awesome, but for all the other stuff you said (and given my needs) it's Gen 3 for me. Can't beat it for $139 on sale! Cheers.

Bought the Airpods 2 on sale. I watched tons of UKposts videos about all the different AirPods. I don’t like the pro’s because the silicone tips. The 3th gen i tried but they don’t fit well and not comfortable at all for me. The AirPods 2 are the winner for me because the comfort fit and can wear it all day without any pain or discomfort, battery life is great and microphone is very good and the sound sounds much more bass then on the 3th gen tbh. Fit of the 2nd gen is just the best fit ever made on Airpods and i hope Apple makes like Airpods SE thats based on Airpods 2 design but with more features and more adjustments.

The Airpods Pro are a great product for the most part, but Apple dropped the ball on the silicone tips. The way they're designed, there should be at least 5 sizes. They're not "compliant" enough and will not give a good fit for many people. Third party foam tips are a huge improvement.

@aleks7827 4 місяці тому

I don't know if I'm the only one with this issue, but my AirPods 3 always get clogged up and start sounding noticeably quieter after a few weeks (after cleaning them). Funnily enough, there's never visible earwax buildup around the tip like with the older models. So my theory is that these are not good for us with more "liquid" earwax, because it gets absorbed by the mesh.
