    The live listen is also great for those with less than stellar hearing. Instead of asking people to repeat themselves (maybe they are softly spoken), I can put in my airpods pro and enjoy a conversation without having to constantly ask somone to repeat themselves. I also noticed that conversations were easier to head just by putting the buds in and not playing anything, including live listen. They tend to filter noise such as music and other distractions e.g. like at a pub.

    Thanks for the video, just an FYI for those still using Pro gen 1s, except for the specific case changes all of these settings are available to gen 1 pros as well. It’s an iOS update enhancement. You missed ticking on follow iPhone in the accessibility menu to enable the extra menu options for spacial. If it’s off you only get fixed and off on the shortcut menu. Again thanks 🙏

    These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM Pros: The fit is fantastic. This is the biggest plus. They stay in my ears when running and become unnoticeable. They are tight but comfortable. The sound quality is about the same as the 1st gen buds. They pair more easily with my LG G8 ThinQ and immediately reconnect when removed from the case. The sound balance is excellent, good but not overpowering base and clean mid tones and highs.Cons: The noise cancellation is good but perhaps a little less effective than the Bose ANC on the 1st gen buds. Passthrough mode as not as good as the 1st gen buds making it a little more difficult to hear conversations when in passthrough.

    About the microphone in just one earphone, it is very useful to send audio messages in any IM. If you leave it automatic, the quality leaves a lot to be desired. It improves a bit when you leave it on manual. It's not the best, but it's an improvement

    Excellent video! Also the earpods will start to learn how you use them and if you take them out of your ears and put in case for just a few minutes every now and again the battery life will extend appx 15 minutes per pod. If you hold your case over your iphone and open it, the battery percentage will show up in a small picture of the case and the buds. They are fantastic ear pods and become quite a personal device. Thank you for the tips!

    Excellent video. I have mild hearing loss (age-related) but as I am a professional musician and conductor these devices have been a lifeline to me. The accessibility adjustments are a revelation, as you describe. In fact the change was so magical it made me quite emotional as I switched from what I already thought was good to the corrected version. This is an Apple product that has had a huge impact on my life in just a few days. Thank you for your contribution to that.

One question I have for you is: when you want to disconnect the phone call and your hands are dirty let’s say you working on your car or you got oily fingers or greasy fingers, obviously you can’t double press the stem of the AirPod. Is there any other way how to disconnect or hang up the phone call from the AirPod itself besides having to double pinch the AirPod Pro stem?

    Wow, I can’t believe how hidden the accommodations setting to test your hearing and create your own equalizer settings is…I’ve watched many videos on the AirPods Pro 2 and you are the only reviewer who has even mentioned this. Thank you.
    I’m in my 60s and my hearing isn’t what it used to be so the hearing test built into the AirPods Pro 2 will make a world of difference by creating a profile for my hearing. I’m really glad I came across your review or I’d never know about this. Thanks again!
