I think they kept Beats separate because that way they can serve a bigger part of the headphone market. Beats have different qualities than Apple headphones and ppl who buy Beats probably wouldn't buy Apple headphones, so they keep it around.
They are in many ways the same company, and they do make things that overlap (wireless buds) but they still make different products for people with different tastes. For example, Beats makes over ear headphones and wireless speakers, both of which Apple does not.
Riley, the feature for android its called Google Swift Pair, and it allows seamless pairing with devices nearby, same as iOS, and it works with a huge amount of earbuds
I have to say that it was never an unconvenient experience listenig to music on my airpods pro with my s21 ultra. I just had to pair them once with a long press on the case from the buds and press connect on my phone. Since then I just have to pop them out of the case and put them in my ears and they are connect. Simple as that.
@@propersod2390 I had an iPhone and obviously the airpods pro. I pre-ordered the s21 ultra and got their new buds pro for "free". Unfortunately my ears have a very dumb shape so they didn't fit (tested of course the other tips as well) but nothing worked out. So I had to sell them and kept my airpods although I thought that de buds pro had more base and sounded a bit better.
@@Fabian-ze9hs Go online and buy "comply foam tips" and I think the buds pro will fit your ears better. I got the buds with my s21u pre order as well and I didn't find any of the ear tips to be that comfortable (especially over a longer period of time) so i ordered foam ones. So much better.
I’ve been told apples custom codec makes Apple Music sound better than Spotify and I needed a family plan. But I’ve never been sure if it really is better. Glad to hear it was a good decision. Either way they’re the same price so it doesn’t really matter.
They did the same thing for the beats pro release They came out with the beats versions of older already apple products (AirPods > AirPods 2> beats pro… no noise canceling, no transparent mode) Then a 6 months later the AirPods Pro came out with more features and same price of the beats pro, and they heavily reduced the beats pro price…. Just feels like a beats version of the AirPods Pro, with a smaller size, and no wireless charging to help lower the cost.
I listen to music often and I am a livestream singer. I have used many true Bluetooth earbuds and love beats pro (had two sets) and multiple ipods! Love these with good overall quality and battery life with super comfy fit! I am loving it!!! 🥰
It doesn't have lossless audio support on Apple devices fyi, actually none of the Airpods currently do (update coming later? Depends if Jern's eyebrows are right). It's still using AAC 256 bit on Apple.
I'd be super interested if there was an LTT video going into the pros and cons (audio quality-wise) between different music/podcast platforms. I really didn't know that there was any difference between Spotify and Apple Music and it looked like Riley didn't expect it either.
Apple Music uses a codec specific to apple products which optimises them. Some other earbuds could also use it (AACL). Apple Music has lossless audio which uses algorithms to replace lost data. Tidal doesn’t have lossless but it does have raw cd quality data which is apples lossless but they have the full data instead of replicating it. Both apple and tidal have support for up to 9216kbps audio. Spotify maxes out at only 320kpbs and UA-cam maxes out at 160kpbs. Bluetooth can only transmit like max 900kbps or something tho.
@@Scrappy-UA-cam correct and I can say from experience as I use both Spotify and Apple Music on IOS and android that lossless on Apple Music has a noticeable difference from Spotify’s highest audio quality.
Fast Pair is a part of Google Play Services and was introduced in 2017. It is compatible with audio equipment from Google, JBL, Sony, Microsoft, OnePlus, Anker, BOSE, Bang & Olufsen, and more. I understand why Apple wouldn't like to put Google trademarks on their boxes and product pages.
I just bought these, I think they’re fantastic! Been using the PowerBeats Pro Totally Wireless for years and I like these a lot better. Only con for me is no volume control on the headphone itself, but it’s a small gripe. Also, why is there no wireless charging feature?! Ugh. Other than that, highly recommend!! 🤩
I really really like Riley. One of my favourite LMG hosts. But please let James do the audio side of things (assuming he doesn't already has a tonne on his plate. He... Seems to be a busy guy.)
I actually do not like when headphones have their own separate EQ profile because there are too many issues already one built-in to the phone software at least on iPhone, another built into Spotify or whatever music app you’re listening to unless it’s Apple Music, and then if you have a pair of headphones with a built-in that is now a third equalizer. Personally I would just use the one built-in to Spotify it’s robust and works well.
Also, Xiaomi has a pop up future for Xiaomi earbuds! Like when you open an Xiaomi product, it automatically pops up "Including Haylou, 1More, POCO and Redmi earbuds"
You guys need to do a series covering over the ear options because some of us can't use ear buds. My ears are too sensitive but I know other people are susceptible to ear infections.
Can you add a latency test at every buds unbox/review? I'm in need of that kind of wireless buds for work purposes while I need to game and to talk to my friends while I don't want to spend more money on headphones..
Apple’s product page says nothing about spatial audio or the H1/W1 chip. They’d probably be tooting that horn if it was there. Pretty disappointing since I was hoping for buds to replace my PowerBeats Pro.
after watching LTT for years, just noticed that Riley sounds very much like linus. Riley has a little deeper voice than linus but they both sound very similar
"On iPhone, you get the familiar, easy AirPods-like setup and Control Center integration. They can also do hands-free “Hey Siri” commands. On Android, Beats now works with Fast Pair and Google’s Find My Device features."
I think it's a big mistake from Apple that they didn't put the H1 or W1 chip in. Because I don't see the point for an iOS user to choose these $150 Beats Studio Earbuds to the detriment of Airpods-Pro that we find quite regularly at $180. For Android users too, I don't see the point as they have no particular advantage over Galaxy Buds Pro, Earfun Air Pro, Soundpeat H1, Jabra 85T, Huawei Freebuds Pro, Amazon Echo Buds 2,Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro, Edifier Nb2 Pro...🤷🏽♂️.
The fact that LMG got an Apple product first is astonishing!

I’m surprised that Apple didn’t completely absorb Beats into their sound design group. But I guess the Beats brand is still valuable.

Looking at the line up, Beats is Apples budget brand.

ok
Riley was having some serious fun in this and it was awesome. Was actually laughing at the video which I don’t do much lol
Putting crab rave on was a nice touch. I was thinking about pulling it up when Riley mentioned it lol!
I love Riley, he's just so much fun :)
“I’ve been installin beats, YEAH! YEAH!”, I got that song reference 🙌. Riley dropping sick references 🔥
My Samsung headphones have always done the instant connection as well. Even the original Galaxy buds.
This.
ANC is not to “cancel” sudden sounds like clapping, its best for constant sound like car engines, people talking in a restaurant etc

You can control sound by going to Bluetooth and then selecting your beats and then going to controls.
The manic depravity that Riley displays in each video is so endearing, it's probably more than half the reason I watch Short Circuit
Riley’s getting cozy with that iPad Pro hmm are we getting into the Apple eco system.
Show me what you got...
The tone was everything XD
Imagine if it was sponsored by Raycon
I was waiting to hear that this was sponsored by RayCon earbuds when he did the segue.
Love the design on these!! The fit looks comfortable as well. I wonder how they compare to the other popular buds on the market.
I'm living the life of Riley, watching Riley live the life of Riley.
sound difference is cuz of bluetooth codec (AAC) witch on apple can be even lossless but on android is just a bit better than sbc codec
