Mr Big –
First of all, I purchased this directly from Amazon. Look out for “Shipped & Sold by Amazon” – and you are guaranteed to receive a legitimate product. Other reviewers who are claiming that the product is counterfeit are probably purchasing from third party sellers.
Let’s get to the review.
I am someone who does not enjoy the “in-ear” style earbuds. The ones with rubber tips that you jam into your ear canals. They are usually uncomfortable and give me headaches. For this reason, I have stuck with the traditional EarPods and AirPods design.
Taking the jump to purchase AirPods Pro wasn’t easy. It goes against all my beliefs and preferences for earphones. However, I must applaud Apple – because this is now my main listening device (previously an AirPods 2nd gen user). I learned that in-ear style buds cause me pain because of the build-up of pressure in the ear canal. The AirPods Pro have vents that regulate the pressure inside your ear, making it feel almost like the regular AirPods – invisible. If anything, I can wear these for hours until the battery dies, whereas the regular AirPods hurt after maybe an hour or so.
Transparency mode and noise cancellation mode are easily switchable by holding the AirPods stem. I usually keep mine on Transparency mode, but it is nice to switch to noise cancellation mode for when my environment is too loud. FYI, the AirPods Pro come with different ear tips, so you will likely find one that will create the most optimal seal in your ear canal.
As of writing this review, I purchased this on sale under $300 CAD. The fact that Apple makes their products work so well with each other is another reason that this is a good buy. If you have an iPhone/iPad, AppleTV, or MacBook, you can switch between devices so seamlessly – without re-pairing the AirPods each time. That is to say, my wife has used this with her Windows laptop and has no issues.
Overall, I am glad I took the chance on these. Hoping to use this for many years to come.

Love Apple products but I’m tired of their games
With the iPhone 11 they introduced the new charging end (not the one that goes into the phone, the one that plugs into the cube then into the receptacle).
The AirPods pro comes with the same cable but no cube. This means if you don’t have an iPhone product you can’t charge these period. And the charging wire it comes with is worthless unless you’ve already bought an iPhone 11
Apple charges a ridiculous premium for their products. They should back it with the proper hardware

Primero tengo que destacar lo rápido que fue la entrega del producto, llegó muy Bien empaquetado, se veía nuevo, al sacarlos del empaque se veía todo muy bien, pero ahí empezó el primer “detalle” al conectarlos decía “Arpods Pro de Ricardo” lo cual no entendí, porque si son nuevos, no entiendo porque tiene que tener otro nombre.
Total los eh probado 3 días han funcionado de maravilla excepto por un problema y MUY grave, se descarga mucho más rápido un airpods que otro.
Por lo que si se mantiene ese problema desgraciadamente tendré que devolverlos, espero que se arregle o que exista un cambio por otra unidad.

It isn’t fake Airpods Pro. In case if you are worried, just go to checkcoverage.apple.com and check your serial number of Airpods pro outside your box / inside Airpods pro. Amazon will refund your money in case they have sent you the fake airpods.
In regards to Airpods pro, it is great value. There are tons of NC earbuds out there, but airpods pro is one of the best one in the market currently. I personally owned QC 30, Bose QC Earbuds, Sony WF-1000XM3, but airpods pro is the best among them. Bose QC Earbuds have better sound and better battery, but it is twice as big as airpods pro. Sony WF-1000XM3 has better NC, but it has terrible connection issue.
So while Airpods pro may not have the best NC, Battery, or Sound quality, it is best all arounds. Solid NC, Solid SQ, Awesome connection and integration with other Apple devices, Spatial dynamic audio, small charging case, Good call quality and so on. It is a best-buy.
The only issue that you might have is, some people – including myself – seem to have issue with the size of ear tips. Apple gives you S,M,L sizes of ear tips along with airpods pro, but unfortunately, none of them fits my ear perfectly. They either fall or feels very unease. This is why I took out a star from overall quality. Nonetheless, it is best out there and if you own Iphone, I don’t see a reason for not buying this.

So I will say I’m never wearing my bose 700’s out in public (other than planes and other modes of transport that are too loud for the small in ear noise cancelation the Airpods pro have) there just too bulky and, but these new airpods are just so sleek and convenient, I’m an audio nerd if you want convenience these are probably the best buds to buy right now. Obviously sound could be better but for what you get I’d say it’s worth every penny.

With the new transparency mode, I can listen to music knowing that I will never be ran over by a car on the street again. Another W for Tim Cook and the boys

Wow! I never liked the original air pods. They always fell off. I’m so glad Apple came out with these and that I waited to splurge on headphones. The sound is beautiful, the fit is perfect. I literally just got these out the box and I fell in love! I have always been an Apple product lover. Well worth the wait!

Like iphone 11 Pro, Macbook Pro, Airpad Pro; the “Pro” denotes a higher end product.
Compared to the Airpods (version 2) highest end model (with wireless charging case*); the Airpods Pro is $50 more MSRP.
Compared to the non wireless case version it’s $90 more
*Airpods Pro does have wireless charging case by default. Only one version.
Let’s go through the differences
1. Physical Appearance:
Shorter Stem, but larger bud or head
There’s a large black airflow grill
A mic inside and outside the Airpods
Case is same thickness, a lot wider, but shorter. Still uses lighting cable to charge, but it does come with a lighting to USB-C cable
2. In-ear, instead of on-ear
If your ear has a small cavum and the original airpods fit perfectly, then the Airpads Pro may be a tight fit/more uncomfortable, but seeing the in-ear design, the ear piece will go into the ear canal and the rest will float in place.
Those with normal or larger cavum it’ll fit well.
Some may not like the ear piece going into their ear canal
These ear phones are more for a closed environment than an open one
Seeing that it’s an in-ear design, you may feel this hollow air effect going on unless you turn on transparency mode (more on this later) or play music with active noise cancelling on
Seeing that it’s in-ear, it has a tighter grip, better for joggers, those who shake their head around a lot for some reason, or if you run up stairs often. If you have an intense workout regimen and/or do extreme sports and not mindful it still can fall out
There’s a Ear Tip Fit Test on app. There’s several ear tips in box. When you turn on this feature in app it’ll calibrate and suggest what ear tips are best listening experience for you
If you lose the tips or get them dirty overtime, you can go to the Apple store and get replacement pair for around $4 or get cheaper 3rd party ones when they come out
3. Squeeze instead of tap
Instead of tapping on the earbuds, you are pinching or squeezing the stem.
1x to play, pause, and answer calls
2x to skip forward tracks
3x to skip back tracks
Press and hold to switch between active noise cancel and transparency mode
Still able to say “Hey Siri” to do voice commands/adjust volume anytime
No physical volume controls on buds
4. Battery life
Battery life varies depending on how far away you are from the device and volume you set. Battery depreciation over time. These are just rough estimates
Pro in general has 4.5 listening time with active noise cancelling or transparency on. Airpods version 2 has 5 hours. Note Airpod version 2 does not have active noise cancelling or transparency mode. You can get 5 hours with noise cancelling and transparency off, but most likely you’re not going to unless you’re really desperate for battery
Pro has 3.5 talk time. Airpods have 3 hours
Case both old 24 hours battery life
Pro: 5 mins in case = 1 hour talk or listen time. Airpods 15min in case = 3 hours listen, 2 hours talk
5. Water/sweat resistant
Now you can go to the gym and do cardio with them on.
As mentioned before, tighter grip seeing that it’s in-ear
May survive light rain. Do not recommended going in the shower or dunk in the pool with it though
6. Active noise cancellation, Transparency mode
Airpods pro has 3 modes: Active noise cancellation, off and Transparency mode
Active nose cancellation tries to block out outside noise while listening to music. I’d say it drowns out may 70%. If you focus to outside or aren’t focused to music; you still may be able to pick out what’s going on, but in general it does it’s job.
Off is just like the standard in-ear headphones, but with the hollow air sound when no music is playing
Transparency mode. The black airflow grills let in outside sound so you’re able to hear both outside sound and music same time. Think of it as open ear headsets.
Unlike some in-ear headsets the black airflow grills prevent you from hearing yourself in your head when you talk
7. Sound Quality
Better than the previous version seeing the active noise cancelling and in-ear with more focused sound direcly into your ear canal. It’s not $250 audiophile quality sound. Better quality sound in lows and mids compared to non-pro version. If you ever tried the Power Beats Pro, it sound very similar to those
You can hear callers better in a noisy environment and less likely raise your voice
–Conclusion:
Other than that, all other features are the same. Meant to be used on Apple devices. Very good ease of use for Apple users, and is in-style these days (shows social status). Sound quality is better that the non-PRO version, and you do get noise cancellation. There are other headphones that do it better sound in this price range, but may not be as convenient with pairing to Apple devices.

They fire

I’m gonna start off saying that the noise canceling is amazing ide rate 10/10. Where the problem is is after wear for 3 minutes it begins to hurt my ears dramatically. I tried every tip and none of them work. It seems to be the design of the earbud itself. I’ve personally loved all of apples products but I think they should have worked a little harder on this one. I’ve done research and I’m not the only one experiencing pain. There is thousands who say the same thing. The original AirPods are great and feel amazing in my ears where sometimes I forget I’m wearing them. If you have normal AirPods I would say your better off just using them.

A empresa vendedora, parceira da Amazon, repassa produtos que a Apple substituiu por defeitos, sem a garantia da fabricante. Não vale a pena a compra, e o produto veio com defeito !
