I returned my Airpods 4 in the same day that I received cause of the fit, keeps falling out and gotta adjust it every 20 sec, silicone might work for me and I’d go for the pros next!
Do you typically wear 2 or 3 or the pros?? I had the 3s and they felt big in my ear the AirPod 2s are far more comfortable. The pros go in your ears and I’m not really a fan of that. I’ve never owned pros but have had the Amazon echo buds and didn’t like in ear
I know you said that you really like the Airpods Max, but it was interesting to hear about all the features that they're missing. Then you said that those missing features weren't that big of a deal. I completely disagree! In my opinion, a set of headphones costing $550 should have ALL the features! Not only are they missing features like a power button, a protective case, and a conversation awareness mode, but Apple didn't bother to fix those issues with the "new" ones. That's inexcusable in my book.
@@aadayanaaaa I see. the 4s are definitely bigger than the 2s. I would say try them and just return them if you don’t like them. It’s a great time because you can take advantage of holiday return policies. Returning them if they don’t fit is a legitimate reason to return.
Hi Mike. I also had issues with fit for my AirPod Pro in my left ear. I tried the wing tips but it’s a hassle to always take them off when charging in the case so I searched for a better solution. I bought the foam masters aftermarket silicon tips and not only did it fix my fit issue, it also greatly improved the ANC. Give it a try and I think you’ll be surprised at how well they work. Keep up the great content!
Comprehensive discussion of the current AirPods lineup . Picked up AirPods 4 for my long distance runs and gym time… perfect headphones without fidgeting with the silicone tips.
Hi Mike, I greatly appreciate your candid review and comments. I’ve tried numerous earbuds; AirPods (gen 2 w/anc, pros) Bose earbuds, beats, and Sony; unfortunately they all kept slipping out of one of my ears. Except for the Bose Ultra Open earbuds. After watching your first review, I gave the AirPods Gen 4 with ANC. They are a lot more comfortable than the Pros and the Max. I like the pinch control better than the touch control; everything I had to reinstall or refit them into my ear I would change something. This video just basically confirms what I thought about my AirPods. Bottom line - thanks for information.
Thanks you very much for that Microphone Testing! I was looking for this in many videos. The outside part could have been even longer for the AirPods Pro 2.
Great review. If an Apple customer, this lineup gives the best bang for the buck at every price level. The Max could do with an update, but I would not be surprised if Apple adds a higher end version next year. Bang & Olufsen have just raised the game to $1,500 at the high end and Vision Pro adds an all new gateway for higher end headphones. For everyday use, the Max could be updated with better mics, weather resistance and a lighter design. What do you think?
I’m torn between getting the AirPods Max with USB-C or the older ones-I don’t really care which, I just want the cheaper option, but are the firmware updates any different?
i see you are a huge fan of silicone ones but for a person like me with really smaller ear canals these airpods 4 are good news airpods pro and airpods 3 were hurting my ears i think the left ear thing i think they have to make the left ear piece smaller after they research that is.
3 minutes into the video & you’re still talking about what you’ll be showing is in this video, & it’s 23 minutes long !! Bro, keep it short, simple & to the point !
I just recently lost my Jabra Elite Active 75Ts and have an iPhone 14 Pro, I was considering getting the AirPods Pro 2 but unsure if there are better options now since they’ve been out for so long already or would they still be the best option for iPhone
The Skullcandy Crusher ANC 1 had the best transparency mode I have tried in any headphone before the Airpods Max came out, when the Crusher ANC 2 came out, the Transparency sound dissapointed me.
AirPods Max battery life is good. It’s 20 continuous hours. I can get through the day without hearing daylight traffic noise. I can wear them while they’re charging. They’re comfortable to sleep with. I don’t like earbuds because they die during the day. It’s annoying to wait for earbuds to charge while being tortured by traffic noise.
yup have the pro2 had to get aftermarket foam tips as silicone got itchy, but ears also get sore cause the microphone speakergrill on the outer case is rubbing its sharp edge against the ears...
i had airpods pro 2 pretty happy with them , but right one suddenly start to crazy noise like sadako shouting... i got xm5 sony but after 5 min gave me dizzyness.... seems 2 hours more battery and better noise cancel but kill my brain... so im thinking to get again airpods pro 2... i heard some people said pro 4 also give dizzy? and fitting problems? better go for pro 2 again? and 4 is better noise cancel than 2? i heard 2 is better because those silicone buds...
I shall wait for Airpods Pro 3, based on the leaks they seem double innovative with H3chip, heartbeat sensor, etc. Apple still selling them for 250$ for 2 years old tech and 5 years old design is ridiculous. And Airpods 4 is one of the lazier upgrades they did with the Max included.
@@MikeOBrienMedia I got one a few years ago for about $30. The talk about that Apple case always makes me laugh. It’s actually perfect for use at home.
Terrible demonstration… Which one are you talking about? Then which one are you talking about? Then which ones are you talking about? Learn to put graphics up when you’re talking about one particular pair put a graphic up so we can remember which one you’re talking about. How do you not know this?
They went lazy with the airpods max. what a joke.
I tend to think it was on intentionally, they cant not know that people will react like that
@@jesse045 yeah, more people just buy the pros or any other airpods rather than the max because the maxes are just too expensive
But still it Deserves an Update with H2
They’re cancelling the product that’s why no real upgrades.
@@Sweatedsiren895 noone really buys it, i feel like people would lean more towards the pros or 3rd/4th gens

Make sure you price match, you can get em for $10 more than the 4ANC

If the AirPods 4 design fits you, the ANC is incredible all things considering.
Would you say the fit is similarly like the old AirPod 2
@@aadayanaaaa I'd say it's still closer to AirPods 3, just a bit smaller.
@@AL-12345 oh ok, I’ve never had the 3 and I’m asking because the old 2s fit me perfect and wouldn’t fall out my ears

If the right one fits while the left one doesn’t for the pros then you could change the left silicon tip only
Solid video as always, balancing data with personal usage as well. Even though it pains a bit, I'll get Airpods Pro 2 USB-C. Thanks for a great video!
Thanks for your kind words!
If you get them on sale on Amazon for example there's no pain actually quite pleasant

The airpods max gave me super headaches, they are super super heavy on your head. I guess Apple fans wear everything as long as its APPLE.

I think this is quite concise compared to many other videos. It is thorough and there is a lot to cover comparing 4 different models
ANC on Airpods 4 is really good, didn't expect that at all when bought

Why are there never any timestamps in your videos?
Because you should watch the whole thing or skim yourself.
Do the airpods max leave a dend in your hair if u wear it for 3 to 4 hours?
For someone who has the original airpods and they fit and stay in amazingly would the 4s do the same?
It just straight up depends on your ear shape and size
I still love my airpods max that i upgraded to the usbc even it's still h1. I have airpods pro but it's my secondary headset.
so airpod pro 2's are the best all around?
The AirPods 4 is the only airpods my is not allergic to. So sad apple won’t take a look of this issue. So many people are talking about it.
yup have the pro2 had to get aftermarket foam tips as silicone got itchy, but ears also get sore cause the microphone speakergrill on the outer case is rubbing its sharp edge against the ears...
I fucking hate that the 4S with ANC didn’t get The U1 and volume sliders…
Where would you rank the beats fit pro in this comparison?
Thank you!

Apple has proven over the years you should upgrade your devices around every 4 years if you want to see significant upgrades.
Im just gonna buy them when they come out I just bought the pros 2 cuz I can’t wait for the 3s im to impatient 😂
Why didn’t you ever buy a travel case for your AirPods Max? Just curious.
I'm not sure. I guess I should

Airpod Pro 2 are best
No new case for AirPods Max is a disgrace
I never use the case. AirPods Max is always on my head. I only take it off for showers.
The AirPods 4 with ANC were amazing but they don’t fit for small ears 😕
