Apple AirPods Pro (1. generation) with MagSafe charging case (2021)

Bought these to replace a first gen pair, which already had a round of replacements (one due to battery, other knocked out from my ear while leaving a crowded train). The battery was again busted in both, getting a replacement unfortunately would cost almost what Amazon is asking for the Pro's for, so went for it. The good: - fantastic convenience - for me, if you get a good fit, these are the definitive sports earbuds, they "just work" as much the first gen - sound quality is quite good - there is a critics bandwagon bashing these in terms of audio quality; I'm no audiophile, but I'm picky enough to tell the difference between a CD and lossy formats, and have to say I quite enjoy the sound and specially the bass on these ones, and also find the spatial audio and dolby atmos interesting; your mileage may vary, the quality of the seal you get hugely influences the sound on all headphones and specially earbuds, getting that wrong messes up the whole sound signature; regarding the treble, there is a trick someone found of going to Accessibility > Audio/Visual > Headphone Accommodations, then turn that on and select "Balanced Tone", that for me significantly improved the treble, kind of looks to me that Apple deliberately favours smoothing potentially harsh sounds over fidelity. The less good: - ANC is ok, miles away of the seal you get from let's say Sony WM-1000XM series over-ear headphones, I don't own Sony or Bose's earbuds to compare; I think is the most ANC people would want to safely walk around (probably better to turn it off altogether near traffic), but somewhat lacking for your typical open space office - larger case when compared with the first gen - more functions mean they are more complicated to use for less tech savvy people - more tightly coupled with Apple Over all, hands down recommendation if you have an iPhone, would be great if Apple supported these better on other platforms.

I took a massive risk with buying £185 earphones, this is way more than i'd typically like to spend. But i'd be damned, they're really, really good. The noise cancellation is fantastic, and really useful if you're a frequent user of public transport where things can get quite loud, once turned on all I can hear is my music. But by far the most impressive feature is the transparency mode. The ability to hear as if nothing was in your ears whatsoever is amazing, alongside features like conversation boost, which boosts the volume of the person you are currently facing, makes transparency mode a feature I never expected to be so good. Furthermore, audio quality is FANTASTIC absolutely no complaints from me there. It's worth noting that the Airpods Pro come with 3 ear-tips and none of which really fit me very well ( there's an option in settings for testing the fit) but I just stuck on the smallest tips and pushed them into my ears (obviously not being violent with it), and over a couple weeks or so of fairly-frequent use they just became more of a natural fit, and are much more comfortable now. So if at first, none of the eartips fit you, try a couple weeks just trying to make it work.

I cant believe I waited so long to get a pair of these. I thought they were gimmicky and my normal headphones worked well enough, what's the point I thought, they'll be a waste of money.... Well, I didnt think I realised how annoying wired headphones are... no more getting them caught on door handles and my phone going smash on the floor, no more dropping my phone and them getting ripped out of my ear. I can wander around the house and don't have to carry my phone / laptop with me. Great for working out. The only negative is that they don't have enough functionality on their own to control the music. A few times for me, they fell in the sink when I bent over. A great tip for buyers is that you need to twist them in your ear a bit to stop them falling out. Twist them towards your mouth slightly and they will be nice and tight. The sound is great and the noise cancelling is about a 3 out of 5. I have a pair of Sony XM4 noise cancelling headphones and they are only just a bit behind and I think that might only be because they are over ear. Being able to spread the cost over 6 months was a cinch, best purchase I've made in a while.

I had some reservations when buying these as I hadn’t heard them before. I had a pair of wireless Earbuds of another well known brand which I was happy with, but constantly having to re-pair them with my iPhone or iPad was becoming a pain. I wanted these as a replacement that would ‘just work’ , as Steve Jobs used to say. The quality is very good-equally as good as my other brand, just make sure you get a proper fit with the earbuds. The noise cancellation is excellent- they will now replace my large Sennheiser over ear headphones for when on a plane, which means it’s less for me to carry. They also have something called ‘transparency’ mode, which is absolutely brilliant. It cancels out the noise cancellation and amplifies the sound around you so you can hear what’s happening. I find this very useful if I am shopping and get to the checkout, I can hear everything without taking my EarPods out of my ears. When not in use, the charging case will fit in any pocket. I always seem to have them with me now. The only downside, and it’s a very small one, is that there’s no volume control on them. You have to either use Siri, or your device to change the volume-which is very easy if your wearing an Apple Watch. Overall I love them and recommend them to anyone with an apple device.

Have never bought expensive earbuds before, however wanted something wireless for the gym. Having an iPhone & iPad I wanted something that was ultra compatible with them. I was in two minds between the AirPod 3s & these Pros - as I was concerned that the ear bud section on the pros wouldn’t fit comfortably. I went with the Pros in the end, due to the noise cancelling feature which works great. Having never had noise cancellation before, there’s a world of difference & it really improved gym sessions and listening to music in the car! The Earbud section to my surprise also fits very well inside the ear canal, tho it does take some adjustment to get used to compared to regular apple headphones. There are 3 sizes of ear buds included, so everyone should have a suitable option to use. Spacial audio feature is cool & works well, although I must say that it doesn’t make a huge difference to the way I listen to music. Maybe it’s just me?! I like it, but it’s not essential. There also waterproof so good for the gym & if your by the beach. Overall an excellent product, for a price of £185 I personally feel it’s value for money.

Honestly, these are really good earbuds if you're in the Apple ecosystem. They have a few annoying quirks, but generally I'd recommend them and they get the basics right. Pros: -Excellent sound: Doesn't have a ton of bass like other headphones I've used, and instead is a bit more balanced. This may be a matter of taste, but I personally like it. -Spatial audio: It sounds like a minor thing but it genuinely adds an extra level of depth to the sound and widens the soundstage, although I will admit head-tracked mode makes me think my AirPods are playing funny more than anything - they aren't, it just feels that way. -Comfort: Seen a lot of conflicting views on this but for me, they feel really comfortable and feel like nothing in the ear, though this is with some Comply foam tips (well worth the investment for the best experience) -Transparency Mode: This is genuinely amazing and feels pretty much like I've got nothing in, and there's very little I can't hear. -Apple ecosystem integration: If you've got an iPhone, these will pair in just a single tap, and then they'll pair them to your Apple ID so they'll automatically connect to any of your other Apple devices. -Case: feels sturdy, well made and it has MagSafe wireless charging. Also small and easy to fit into a pocket. Meh: -Controls: Unlike other earbuds, such as the AirPods 2, these aren't touch based but rather use a force sensor at the bottom. This works really well in practice and is way harder to trigger on accident. But there's not much control (pun not intended) over what they actually do aside from switching long press between toggling ANC/transparency mode ore triggering Siri, and you can't control volume from the earbuds either. -ANC: It's good but I expected better here, I needed the foam tips I mentioned above to get the best out of this, and even then if on a bus a lot of engine and road noise can still sneak in. That said, if I'm in my room and I have my fan on for instance, it's invisible. -Automatic device switching: I like the concept but it's frustratingly inconsistent - sometimes it won't switch to my MacBook if I want to play something on there, but they'll switch to my phone just by refreshing in twitter (which plays a sound). Apparently it works a lot better between iOS devices than between iOS and macOS, which isn't too surprising. -Battery life: It's fine, I can listen to music for a reasonably long period of time but it's not amazing either, although they charge quickly enough. If battery life is a #1 priority, though, on-ear/over-ear headphones are probably going to be better. Cons: -Reliability: In addition to the auto-switching bug I mentioned above, I've had a couple of instances of one earbud losing connection to the other and I've had to re-pair them in the case. -Android support: If you've got an android phone, don't bother with these - they'll connect and work fine but the experience isn't the best and the Beats Fit Pro offer nearly the same experience with much better Android support.

The AirPods supplied are a genuine Apple product and are both light and comfortable. Fitted properly (using one of the three, supplied ear tip sizes) they don’t fall out, though I have not yet tried jogging to see how well they stay in place when vigorously exercising. I generally use these AirPods to listen to music and they provide superb sound quality, better than any earphones I’ve used previously. Once you get used to the controls on the AirPods they are simple to use. The noise reduction system works extremely well to further enhance the sounds being listened to. The option on the AirPods to switch between noise reduction and transparency mode works very simply. Charging the earphones is performed by the supplied carry-case and the carry-case can provide about 3 recharges of the AirPods before needing a recharge itself. Recharging of the AirPods or the carry case does not take long. It is worth noting that a USB-C cable is provided in the AirPods box but a USB-C plug (not supplied) is also required.

I really love these headphones for every day use. They're small and convenient to carry around, they're quick to pair and unpair, and have great in-ear detection to autopause your music when removed. The case is simple, with a USB C or wireless charging capacity, a battery and charging indicator LED, and a useful feature that shows the battery of the case and buds when it is opened near your phone. The buds have really simple but effective inputs that can be easily configured. The defaults are single press for pause, double for skip, triple for backwards, and hold to change between transparency and noise cancelling modes. The buttons are light to press, but provide a satifying affirmative clicking feel when pressed. I much prefer the physical squeeze required rather than the side taps that my old Galaxy Buds Live had, this is because it is impossible to accidentally tap or tap too many times due to poor tap detection. The buds sport three unique modes for listening, alongside just plain output. -Active Noise Cancelling. This does a great job at blocking out background noise, and combined with the silicone ear tips allows a great fit, for passive noise cancelling. -Transparency Mode. This mode passes in noise from the outside, allowing better listening for traffic, conversations with the buds still in, and just listening to the outside world with music at the same time. I honestly can't believe how good this mode is at letting through everything at a sensible level, I can hear my footsteps as I walk, and the birds in the trees, but I can also hear traffic, all at the same time as my music. It is so well balanced, so I finally understand how Airpod users are having a conversation and forget they still have them in. -Spatial Audio. This mode makes it so that the audio is played through the buds corresponding to the direction you're facing from your device. This means that if your left bud is faced away from the device it will be quieter than the right bud faced towards the device. This mode is a cool gimmick that I suppose may be useful to get a more immersive film viewing experience. Overall the product is high quality, with great features.

Sono ottime cuffie, sia per lavorare che per svagarsi con musica, hanno una qualità audio molto alta, l'insonorizzazione elettronica fa un lavoro assurdo, è perfetta anche solo per poter riposare in aereo.

Jag köpte dessa enbart för brusreduceringens skull. Jag har två små barn och bor på andra våningen på en tågstation och är känslig mot överflöd av intryck. Jag har aldrig testat aktiv brusreducering förut och jag har nog inte fått en sådan wow-känsla av teknik sen familjen fick hem vår första VHS-spelare. Nästan allt brus försvann. Det blev liksom… tyst!? Så häftigt. Har efter det haft på dem ofta. Jag tycker de är bra eftersom jag kan ha dem på och ändå prata i vanlig samtalston med mina barn, så länge de är i samma rum. Såg också att det finns en funktion där man kan låta lurarna bryta tystnaden med ljud av havets brus eller en porlande bäck, och olika sortens brus. En dröm för sådana med adhd och autism? Men jag är alldeles för cynisk för att kunna använda de funktionerna. Jag tänker, är det så här vi ska njuta av Guds natur nu? Ska allt bli digitalt? Och så tänker jag: ska jag lyssna på en bäck så letar jag reda på en bäck! 😄 De fungerar även bra som handsfree. Man tänker att det ska låta dåligt för mottagaren eftersom micken sitter så långt från munnen men näe då, det är jättebra ljud! Tänk vad tekniken kan uppnå. Väldigt enkla att installera. Effort free.

Super Qualität, ich hab die schon ein paar Jahre benutzt und klingen immer noch sehr gut. Die Batterie hält auch sehr lange und die auflade Zeit ist auch sehr schnell. Die Geräusch Unterdrückung Funktion ist auch sehr gut aber im Vergleich zu andere Geräte (On-ear) würde ich den eine 8/10 geben

Używam do rozmów telefonicznych, słuchania podkastów/audiobooków, muzyki. Wszystko słychać znakomicie.
