Do you prefer the fit of the Pros or the AirPods 3?
The Pros the 3 fall of my ears
Battery drain test coming soon on the iPhone’s?
The airpods 3 are the best fit the ears are so sh*tt never buying that in my life
@Brandon Butch is that Kernan BLVD where you were walking?
Great review! The Pros hands down!! The sound quality, clarity and bass too and it's not to much bass, it's just right. What is the reason out of all the apple products these don't have battery health? Even the watch has it. You think they will upgrade to aipods pro 3 much sooner than in another 3 years. again? Bro you are brave riding your bike with these in your ear on noise cancellation omg. You gotta be aware and hear of all your surroundings on a bike front, back, left, right. That is one thing I will not have the courage do being a biker and having crashed and almost hit if I had these on I'd be serioulsly injured. I get worried seeing people biking, skatine, scootering, etc. with these in their ears, no bueno stay safe 😳
3:18 man spittin' straight BARS
Lmao I didn’t notice that
I’ve gone from the gen 1 pros to the gen 2 pros and there was 2 work locations where I would ‘lose’ connection between my airpods and my phone (audio cuts out but they still are connected) unless I held my phone next to the AirPod.
I’ve noticed the gen 2s no longer have this issue in those locations. It’s a minor thing but it makes me happy and the purchase price vs resale price difference worthwhile.
Got the Airpods 3 and I couldn't be any happier. Great little things!
As always, great and fun content from Brandon Butch
Brandon I appreciate everything that you do- the time that goes into videos- the testing great job- the money you spend on products so you can let us know what’s good and what’s bad. Thank you, you are appreciated 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Great review, best I have seen after watching a dozen. Thanks for the great info!
The sound quality and noise cancelling still kind of blow my mind when using the AirPods Pro 2. Night and day difference with the Gen 1s. 👌
This is what I keep noticing the transparency mode works really well when you want to hear and the noise cancellation works extremely well when you want to not hear ANYTHING. I believe when they say the 2x noise cancellation but I am on iOS 15 with the Airpods 2 so I don’t get all the features
For sure, I was shocked at how much better they are than the OG Pros
@@paulregener7016 is it worth it to upgrade to airpod pros 2 if im stuck on iOS 15
@@marshallpieri3737 I am on iOS 15.1.1 and honestly they work fine but you don’t get all the features that are available they behave like the 1st gen Pro’s. They are worth getting though even on iOS 15 unless you want those extra features like the ear scan
@@marshallpieri3737 the Noise cancelling works as intended and the transparency mode as well definitely tell the difference when using the 1st gen vs the 2nd gen
As an audio engineer, I don’t know how you can say these two products are similar in sound quality and frequency response. Not to mention that the seal the AirPods Pro create further improves the experience, and the noise cancellation is the cherry on top, even in my studio where I just have the noise of an air filter and computer fans, it makes a huge difference vs the regular AirPods.
I agree, sound quality is better on the Pros and def my preferred choice, but to your average consumer the difference is minimal. Almost everyone I’ve asked IRL thinks that the 3’s sound the same as the Pros when ANC is off 🤷🏻♂️
@@BrandonButch I would also like to disagree on this as well. The average consumer would notice a difference and the difference is not at all minimal to them. I gave these to my colleagues at work who is not tech savvy at all and they loved how silent they made everything. It made them hear the music better.
@@Specias For sure, I love ANC and it makes a huge difference across the board over AP3.
@@BrandonButch hi big fan
@@Specias there’s the avg consumer and then there’s the avg consumer that cares, some people will say they don’t care having 120hz compared to 60hz, so I guess that’s the type of consumer Brandon is talking about
I bought the 1st gen AirPods on launch and then bought the pros when they came out but they hurt my ears after about 30-45 minutes and they constantly fell out if I moved around too much. Gave those to my husband and went back to my originals. The 3s came out, bought them and returned them after two days. They hurt my ears too. I wasn’t planning on buying the pro2s but after seeing reviews saying they fit much better for smaller ears, the volume control on the stem, and the better bass I preordered them and thought well I’ll just return them if they don’t work out. But to my surprise they feel so much better with the xs tips. They switch between my devices so seamlessly and they instantly connect where as my original AirPods had trouble in that dept. I’ve been using them almost every single day since I got them. Definitely worth the try if you couldn’t wear the pro v1s
I had the pain after similar times, do you feel any pain now or is it completely fine?
Same. In my country returns for such devices are not an option so I have a few pairs of jabras that deliver good bass and amazing anc but hurt my ears, so I could only use them for metro trips around the city as they’re short. I bought these and I’m so surprised. They don’t fall off my ears and feel so good I don’t take them off at all. I use transparency mode for conversations and feels great!
As always, great and fun content from Brandon
Thank you so much. I had bought the AirPods 3 a couple of months ago.
I just got the airpods pro gen 2 and i love them. I love how I can switch between my devices almost instantly without having to press anything to press. I had tried the original air pods pro and returned them. Didnt understand the hype. The transparency mode was awesome, but as you said in the video they lacked bass. I got a pair of anker soundcore life p3 and they sounded so much better to me and had way more bass which i love. Highly recommend anker if people are on a budget they are $80. I also have over the ear q30 from anker which are comfy and battery is amazing. The new airpods pro with the case that make noise if tracked is great, they charge fast, and i love the wireless charging. The volume control is awesome because it adjusts perfectly and you wont accidentally adjust it and hurt your ears. The anker ear buds would move slightly and if i adjusted by pushing them in it would either change from noise cancelling, pause, or anything else it was set to. The apple ones are all stem comtrolled. And as I mentioned about gen 1 the transparency mode is amazing on here too, and like you I love being apple to leave in if i went to a store. I even tried driving with them listening to podcast and could hear my surroundings as if I was listening to the radio. Overall great product
The Lanyard Loop is actually an antenna that "also" serves the purpose of being able to attach it. But the main functionality is transmitting and receiving data.
I mean, dumptrucks i don’t mind much lol, awesome vid Brandon, I definitely want those pro 2’s for adaptive transparency, pros ones are a nightmare transparency has always been on those
“I’m able to keep my music playing in my EAR and still HEAR the CASHIER perfectly CLEAR” Niceee!!! 🔥
Awesome videos sorry I’m so late
Are you using them without a cover? Just got the pro2 and wondering if it’s necessary as most covers don’t support mag safe charging and make them quite bulky😅
3:16 bro just dropped some bars in a review 🔥🔥🔥
I have no need for noise cancellation.
I like being aware of my environment.
If that’s the only big difference between the 2 then I know which to go with. Thanks for the the info.
If NC isn’t that important to you go the $$lesser route. Trust me the sound quality is NOT better. I might add they do connect magnificently.
Thanks for the amazing content
thanks for watching!
bro just flawlessly dropped an absolute rhyme at 3:19
How much do the Pros leak audio compared to the normal ones? I have the gen 3’s and i can’t listen to anything over half the volume without people hearing the music I have on in a quiet environment lol
Quite a bit that’s an understatement
You get a like for the Travis Scott track selection,the great comparison was just a bonus lol!
thanks
Sound quality and fit aside, if i removed the silicone tips from the Pros, would I have the same comfort of the AirPods 3?
That lululemon cap fire 🔥
Im going for the A3 cos for running. Everything else I have the XM4.Tx!
Which would you recommend for in the gym?
I went from original 2016 airpods to the new airpods pro and its sooooo much better lol. Although I find that they do slip out of my ears easier regardless of the size ear tips.
Can you make a video like this on the new jbl tour pro 2 with the screen on the case vs the air-pod pro 2
I upgraded from the AirPods Pro generation 1, and I must say, after getting used to marginal upgrades from Apple, the AirPods Pro 2 are much, much better. I use an M1 iPad Pro for business travel personal tech, but I also take it down the coffee shop or the pub. In the pub, my habitual seat is right under a loudspeaker used for music. When I hit the noise cancellation, the music softens considerably to about the level the old AirPods could reach with media playing. But when I play media, the music from the speaker disappears, and the sound is better. The new Transparency mode is better (not that the old one was bad), and battery life is considerably improved, too, in both the case and the AirPods. The cherry on the cake for me is the improved FindMy accuracy and the speaker on the AirPods case.
Does the AirPod pro 2 without the eartip sounds the same as the AirPod 3 ? Im at the point of buying the pro 2 or the 3 not an great fan of the eartip personally. But would love the better bass and anc but its not an must for me.
Can we all just stop and appreciate how fast Brandon uploads these videos. Thank you so much for always helping us out and giving us such detailed vids 💗
Yeah! Gotta admit, he does do a good job with the timing! Bloody good job, lovey!❤
Agree'd, these videos are a ton of work. From the concept, scripting, producing and editing they are a ton of work. Thumbs up from me!
Aren’t you wonderful 😂
My military BX has the Gen 2 Pros on sale for $179 and no sales tax. Heading to the Exchange today to buy some.
Pro's didn't fit me well intially, would come loose when i talked but swapping the tips for some memory foam tips has made them stick and hasn't made the ANC and general audio quality so much better
3:18 this man's spitting bars ngl
I waited for the AirPods Pro but after a month with them, I low key regret not getting the AirPods 3. The noise canceling and the features the Pros offer are nice, don’t get me wrong, but for some* reason I still go to my original AirPods from time to time for the fit and feel. 😅🤷🏽♂️
I’m in that same situation right now, except I’ve had my pro gen 2s for a week. I got the original AirPods gen2 back in 2019 and honestly I like their fit as well as their bass so much better than the pro gen 2s, I still could return them but I’ll see!
I’ve been using the new AirPods Pro 2nd generation for three weeks and I’m having a great experience
Love the pros, wish they had one more tip size. Between Small and Large. Also the black thing on the top of the Pro 2's hurt my ear idk why they moved that thing to the top. But it hurts your ears after awhile. The Gen 3's are soo much more comfortable just wish they had the seal of the Pro 2's with them.
i have airpods 3 and since my ear produces a lot of wax, a lot of it has gotten stuck in the mesh, airpods pro 2 doesn’t have that problem since all that needs to be cleaned is the silicon bit..
Get em
They need a massive update asap so many bugs that are stopping people from fully testing them.
The hardware isn’t the limitation of the earphones its the software that is capable of adapting to the new chips and so far i haven’t really seen that.
3:18 sign this man
Make one video abt airpord pro 2 gen charging tips
Brandon's voice is music in my ears.
I’ve had the Pro 2 for a few days and so far I think they’re awesome. Prior to this I had Galaxy Buds +. The sound of the AirPods is sooo much better than what I was used to
I agree had the Smasung Buds + as well
You really think they sound better? I’m pretty much disappointed in the sound quality, just okay.
Nah the Pros 2 are definitely better bro you winning. The features are much better in my opinion than the buds +
The only thing the buds + is better is the battery life but as far as sound quality pros 2 all the way
i want to know which fits better in ear
I have 2 pairs of AirPods. When I wear my AirPods Pro with the tips for a long time, my ears get irritated and I also got an ear infection once from them. I usually go back to my AirPods gen 1 which I bought about 6 months ago every once in awhile. I bought those AirPods new from Amazon for $99. I enjoy both AirPods. I’m not planning on buying AirPods Pro gen 2 because I don’t feel like it’s worth spending another $240 for similar AirPods. I am aware of the cool new features, I won’t deny it. But for me I prefer to save the money.
One major upgrade I've noticed is how much faster the Gen 2's connect to all of my devices, as well as the case and buds battery percentages showing up without opening the case. I assume this is due to bluetooth 5.3.
no before the airpods did not have Bluetooth in the case so u would not be able to see the case % since it disconects from the phone. Now with the U1 chip, its able to stay connected and show the battery.
I never had the AirPods Pro 2 but I had the 3rd gen AirPods and to me they are really good for the price
Can anyone tell me If the active noise cancellation is hazardous for health anyway? Because it uses frequency to terminate noise signals
I liked my AirPods 3s but I need that noise cancellation. And the new pros for me are a match made in heaven with the new tip size now they don’t fall out of my ears
Hopefully they add the Find My features and touch control to the AirPods 4 or something. Pros still won’t fit me I don’t think.
Picked up the AirPods 3 for mostly listening to Podcasts and I’ll never use NC, since I need to hear my surroundings based on my job. Definitely comfortable as well. Also once trying the AirPods 3 and trying the AirPods Pro 2, you’ll start to like the feel of the no silicone tip and the AirPods 3 will feel much better.
actually the opposite for me! it started getting weird when i tried the airpods 3 upon using the pro 2s for quite a while.
i can say that the silicone tip and nc really is a big factor for improvement!
The 2s were not for me as they fall out of my ears so still use the originals but now that they don’t use the rubber plugs I might upgrade. Thanks BB
3:19 bars man
Noise cancellation is a must. Worth the extra $ in my opinion.
Your rhyming skills are amazing you should be a rapper 😂
For some reason the 3rd are just not comfortable to me but the first gen AirPods original are a good fit for me.
How do the airpods 3 compare with the wired earpods? I know that they are much cheaper but they sound very nice to me, I don't know if it's worth it for me to buy the airpods 3 considering that I don't have to deal with the hassle of charging them and I don't mind the cable
I’m going with the pros for the ability to locate them, the better wifi, the waterproof rating and the quicker connectivity to other devices. Those 4 things alone are worth the $70 extra to me. I could care less about background noise cancellation.
Is it worth 110€ more ? (115$)
@@anastasioskondakos2090 I bought them and took them to Mexico for my vacation…. they were 100% worth it.
I was in Singapore for a week, and purchased an airpods 3, after a 3 days, i returned it and got an Airpods pro 2 instead. good thing I was able to do so, and glad Apple gives customers a time frame to return purchases. this is the video I was looking for when I was contemplating on returning the 3 and getting the pro.
so which one do you like the most between AirPods 3 and AirPods pro 2 in term of comfortable, sound and etc...
Pls whatsup me to get an info abt singapore as am planning to singapore in 3days
lost my airpod 3’s and decided to get the pro 2’s. i love the noise cancellation, transparency mode, sound quality/customization, volume, etc. the noice cancellation is definitely not as good as over-ear headphones, but they are still good enough for most situations. at the gym i find myself using the noise cancellation and not playing anything and it’s actually very calming. the airpod 3’s were good for what they were, and were honestly the most comfortable earphones i’ve ever worn. they feel loose at first, but i’ve never had them fall out of my ears, even while playing basketball
I want to get the AirPod 3 for running I was concerned it would fall off my ears but since you can play basketball with yours then it means I won’t have it falling off when running. I will get that
@@rickmens6110 they’d definitely work for running but you will be a bit worried at first
you serious? they didn’t fall out playing basketball?
Which ones go louder though?
i have a xs in my right ear and small in my left
i want to purchase air pods 3 .how much sound leakage at 70,80 %volume?
Just bought the second generation pros online and can’t wait to try them out!
Did you wait?
Did he said that air pods pro 2 gen was announced year ago??
I am partiality deaf so I can only hear out of my right ear so I am not too big on a lot of features so I am pretty happy with my AirPods 3
one thing I always see overlooked in these type of vids is the fact that airpods pro are much easier to clean compaired to the others, with the pros, the tips protect the speaker from gunk. while with the others, the speaker is exposed and has to be cleaned more often.. not to mention you can accidently puncture the speaker easily while cleaning..
Thissss
You just use peroxide and gently swipe with q tip lol
I just upgraded to the Pro 2nd gen from the AirPods 3 and the Pros are definitely more comfortable to me than the 3’s. When I first got the 3’s they literally hurt my ears and stretched out my ears to where the AirPods would just slip out of my ears. The Pros are way more comfortable now and don’t slip out or shift in my ears
Does the transparency mode with anc on the pros work when only one pod is in the ear? Or is it like older versions where it has to be both AirPods in order to receive the effect?
It works with one!
Thanks for the great video. I recently moved from iPhone to a galaxy s22 and tried both buds pro and buds 2 pro and both caused contact dermatitis for me and I couldn't bare using them for 1 week. No one is talking about the abnormal feeling and irritation that silicone earpads are causing and how they feel uncomfortable ( usually it's not normal to close the normal ear canal ). The second thing I'm still not a huge fan of ANC or transparency modes cause I still think they are not safe and I would still want to hear the normal things around without Transparency mode which would drain the battery.
For me I just want an earphone that wouldn't cause any pressure and with a decent amount of quality I was thinking of the 3ed generation and LG T90 as they don't use silicone. Now after seeing ur video i'm convinced with the 3ed gen .
Again: if u have some sort of sensitive skin i wouldn't recommend buying any silicone earphones that cause pressure and block ur ear.
I wish people make a video on the top non-silicone earphones
You can purchase memory foam ear tips online for most earphones.
Personally I prefer the fit of the pros because my ears are very weird lol. I went to the Apple Store to try on the AirPods 3 and they instantly fell out and I wanted noise cancelling so I decided to get AirPods Pro 2 and they're the best earbuds I've ever owned.
Thanks for the comparison. I've made my choice
Air pods 3 is by far the best. Better fit and I don’t like the silicone tips in the pros.
You shouldn’t use noise cancelling in traffic for your own safety. Otherwise fine comparison.
I traded in my pros I got for my birthday for 3rd gen because my fam brought me pros because they were so tired of seeing me with my wired headphones that came with my iPhone years ago and I hate in-ear headphones so I went with the 3rd gen despite its lack of features, only one of them slips out my ear from time to time but like them.
Should have included the wired earpods for mic test
Hi Brandon, I updated my iPhone 13 Pro to iOS 16 and now I'm on iOS 16.0.3 and the battery is a little worse than it should be. Do you think in the future Apple will release an update that will fix the battery in iOS 16 on other devices? (not only for the iPhone 14 series)
Yes
I recently got the AirPods Pro second generation, and I absolutely love them. As a matter of fact, my original AirPods Pro were having some issues, I sent it in to my local Apple Store and they replaced it with the second generation model absolutely free of charge. That’s a pro tip for any of you who are looking to upgrade from your original AirPods Pro to the newest ones. if they are not functioning as it should, maybe take it into your local Apple store and there’s a chance you might get the second generation for free. However, with that being said, I know you mentioned that you were going to do a video comparing the original AirPods Pro to the second generation AirPods Pro. Are you still going to get to it? keep up the great work and I love all your videos! Heck, we are almost at 1, million subs! Keep up the great work!!!
What excuse did you make? Im gonna copy what u said
@@irvinge4641 I simply said that the AirPods were having some issues, and they just gave me the new one

Underrated comment
Oh jeezz… I returned the a3 cause the fit and haptic press was awful compared to the classic a2… now ordered apro2 in hopes the sx silicon tip will fit better than the airpod3 did…
Oh man I don't like those silicon tips that feels very weird in my ear. Hope apple will bring NC to the regular airpods.
go into a concert and you will CLEARLY notice the adaptive transparency. Ive done it and blown away with it. NEW EARPLUGS !
Awesome! I need to try that out
'that lady gaga song' is probably a BOP thank u very much
I dislike the recording method used to display the quality of each earbud, effectively use voice memos with lossless recording format in settings for future videos. Thank you.
i bought the pros and then after a week i threw them in my drawer and went and got a pair of 3rd gen airpods + wired earpods for when i run outta charge in the gym. yeah i loose out on NC and TM, but the pros are so unbelieveable uncomfortable after 2hrs of use that i literally wanna tear my ears off.
Love my EarPods pro 2 better than EarPods pro 1 but yea it is a different
Have had both of these but I have found my new AirPods Pro refuse to work well with my Samsung TV while the previous AirPods worked fine. Talking with Apple they blame it on Samsung. I don’t quite get that since the old AirPods worked fine. Now I can’t use them until I get a different TV.
For last some weeks or months i had problem. My Airpods 3 show me i must charge left or right earbud or case. And on of the earbud didn't worked!
Then when i bought Airpods pro 2gen Apple fixed bug with 0% battery.
“Block out that Lady Gaga song playing on the loudspeaker”. 😂😂😂
Mine are assembled in Vietnam, they are the new AirPods Pro 2 in USB C. Do you think the quality is the same as in China? They are official
noti ganggg
Great review! Airpods 3 might not be comfortable for everyone either. I have had gen 1 pros and now gen 2 pros and they feel very comfortable while the airpods 3 feel horrible in my ears. So the airpods 3 are not guaranteed comfortable.
I got my AirPods Pro 2 on release day. Loving them so far but I have noticed that there is audio drift and de-sync when using ANC. The sound tends to eventually drift to the left AirPod. Has anyone else experienced these issues? Not sure if it's a hardware issue or software... I hope it's software related.
for me it happens with spatial audio innit
If your spatial audio is set to head tracking that will happen
