Apple’s second-generation AirPod Pros aren’t the stemless, earth-shattering buds I was hoping they would be. Instead, Apple took an already great product and added some simple upgrades to battery life, some minor case improvements, and added a new H2 chip for better audio quality and active noise cancellation. But the $249 earbuds are contending with fiercer competition than ever before. Over the last few months alone, we’ve seen excellent earbuds released by Samsung, Google, and Sony that all give the second-generation AirPods a run for their money. If you aren’t tied to the Apple ecosystem it is now safe to say there are better options available.

True or false: the lanyard hook is the best new feature on these buds
TRUE ‑becca “phone charms stan” Farsace
I got some of these last week. Didn’t own the originals, but I was quite underwhelmed by the sound quality. Saw several reviews stating they had replaced their over ear headphones with these. They don’t even come close to any half decent over ear headphones. The noise cancelling is very good compared to the Amazon Echo Buds I replaced. I do find the wireless charging is flaky as well, I got it to work on a Magsafe charger, but didn’t work on the Belkin stand I have.
I bought the AirPods Pro 2 a couple of months ago. At first I was quite disappointed with the overall sound and transparency mode. The spatial audio sounded horrible and I couldn’t understand why people were raving about them. Then I dug deep into the settings to play around with the sound and the amplification of the transparency mode, something that non of the reviews seem to go into. Yes, there’s the ‘ear tip fit test’ that checks for a good seal, but I urge everyone who owns these to spend more time setting them up for your own preferences. Go into the audio accessibility settings and play around with all those features. Then, in control centre, select the ‘hearing’ control, select Headphone Accommodations and select ‘transparency mode’. This adds even more options to make them perfect for your ears! For me, they have now become the best earphones I’ve ever experienced.
Seen a few reviews of AirPods Pro and this is definitely the best one. I really liked those side by side tests. Keep up the good work!
Nice one ❤
My old ones died and could not be fixed as they whistled through one ear.
When I got the Version 2 pro I am like WOW!
The noise cancelation is almost too good.
I wear them mostly at work and they totally cut out the very loud droning of the building AC unit.
I just wonder if I can turn off the phone would they still work as good or do they
work in tandem with the phone microphone?
I can swear the noise it cancels out totally relaxes me.
This is sooo pleasant content to watch❤️❤️❤️
The Airpod Pros 2 Adaptive transparency can be so amazing. The one situation where I tried it was using an impact drill while changing tires. I was blown away by how much it reduced the sound. Every time I change tires over from winder to summer or summer to winter I use my AP2’s. In terms of pure ANC I also have the Bose quiet comfort earbuds 2 and those are so much better. The amount of noise they reduce compared to the AP2 is amazing. Bose is the current King of ANC.
Personally I use both pairs of earbuds. They are both great. I’m in the apple eco system and love how easy the AP2’s connect to each device. When I need the best ANC I reach for the Bose quiet comfort ear buds 2.
Love this amazing review and how The Verge compared the different earbuds ANC.
06:52 maybe it’s for people who are purchasing AirPods for the first time.
AirPods Pro 2 don’t sound like their price tag.
It’s been 3 years and my 1st gen Pro batts have been falling.
In the 20 years I’ve been using Apple products this is the first time I’ve had EarPods that don’t fall out of my ears. The new XS tips make the difference.
Do u have mic issues with call while in car or outside ? I replaced my pods now but still the problem persists
Most honest reviewer. Keep up the good work. Congratulations 😊
I was watching this video because of the microphone quality. It was very enlightening! Wired headphones will be the way to go! Thank you!
Wired headsets are the best for console controllers
This is so woke it hurts
Dear Verge, question marks are the curly things that go at the end of questions.
to anyone reading this, airpods pro 2 are outdated and terrible. Why do people praise them? Because its apple. Ignore the noise and ignore this product if you want quality sound
solid review. nothing beats the mic of wired earpods.
4:15 I could tell the difference between gen 1 and gen 2. gen 1 had worse audio qualifty.
