Initial Review
Only had them for a few hours and overall I’m impressed by how well they are integrated with my iPhone 11. Everything just works, and once you learn the basic controls it’s quite intuitive.
I am finding the transparent audio impressive and beats my open ear cans like the Grado SR80’s. The noise canceling feature I’ve only used sparingly and will try it out soon.
3 Day Review
Okay, I got in my new Airpod Pro case and liking it as one problem I discovered with the Pro’s due to their size and shape they seem to easily fall out of my pockets.
My first few listening sessions relied on transparent audio and that’s not good for actual music listening. When I turned it off, the sound quality of certain songs improved, which should be obvious considering the original intent of transparent audio mode.
But after several sessions, the audio quality is not as good as my bigger Audio Technica cans, which is also expected, but seems I was expecting too much from the Pro’s vs regular AirPods.
The Pro’s and AirPods in general are more for convenience and they are a dream to wear compared to lugging around wired earbuds. For serious music sessions, need old school wired headsets, but everything else it’s wireless earbuds.
Two Month Review
I’ve now had the Airpod Pro’s for a few months and found them to be pretty good. I use them sparingly as I actually prefer wired headphones for any serious music listening and only use the Pro’s when I want to be untethered from my phone, like at the gym.
You need at least one pair of good wireless earbuds. Beyond that, I’m not too keen yet on wireless headphones in general due to sound quality and having to remember another electronic device to charge.
I’m overall content with the Airpod Pro’s.
