I got about 4-5 hours of constant use of the Pros before needing to put them back in their case. Battery life, however, could stand to be improved upon. I could hear, and be heard, much better than some other earbuds I’ve tried.

While not as strong as a set of over-ear-headphones, I was able to pick out some of the individual parts of a track my beloved Currents still sounded fantastic and full of richness, as did other albums like Pusha-T’s It’s Almost Dry and Vampire Weekend’s Father of the Bride.Īlso worth mentioning is the clarity when using the Pros for calls.

Sound-wise, the AirPods Pro is really strong. I will say the audible chime that sounds when you turn off the noise cancelation is nice providing an audible cue makes it clear at what stage you’re at in the process. Perhaps in an updated version, Apple can find a way to work this functionality into the design. However, this isn’t an issue unique to AirPods, as a majority of earbuds don’t let you do this. It’s a subtle touch, but one that I really came to enjoy in my testing.Īs previously discussed, I still don’t love the squeeze to control functionality of AirPods Pros, even less so when there’s no ability to change the volume without having to reach for your device. It’s not pure on or off function but rather a sort of ebb and flowing of noise that trickles in. The transparency mode also works really well if you decide you do need to hear something from the outside world. That, when combined with the impressive passive noise cancelation, makes for a compelling purchase. Using them on a plane blocked out the chatter and using them on the subway did the same. While not quite on the level of Sony’s superlative noise-canceling earbuds, they’re not too far off.
On the feature side of things, the biggest aspect to note is that of the active noise cancelation, which is really impressive.
However, the case for the Pros is wider than it is tall, evoking a package of Orbit gum more than a box of Tic Tacs. The blub and stem design Apple popularized is still present here, so it’s not going to look radically different from what you’re used to already. When it comes to the overall designs of the earbuds, the Pros are slightly more stubby than the lanky regular version of AirPods, but the overall profile is the same. Once you’re all set here, the AirPods will be added to all devices that are linked to your iCloud account, which cuts down on the amount of time it takes to pair them with all your other Apple devices.
It’s a really handy feature that’s only going to improve your listening experience. The AirPods will produce a tone and prompt you to press in on each bud, and if the Pods sense any leakage, they’ll ask you to change ear tips. It’s important to walk through this step, as a firm seal in your ear canal helps to create better physical sound isolation and increases passive noise reaction. From there, your device will prompt you to walk through an Ear Tip Fit Test, which helps to ensure you’re got the respective AirPods placed in your ears correctly to form the right seal. Upon opening the AirPods Pro’s case, you’ll instantly get a prompt to pair them with your Apple device of choice.
