Apple has released their second iteration of the highly successful Apple AirPods. The new AirPods Pro promise active noise cancelling (ANC) inside of a truly wireless in-ear headphone earbud. Can Apple maintain its crown as the best wireless headphone in an increasingly competitive market where the Sony WF-1000XM3, Samsung Galaxy Buds, Huawei FreeBuds 3, and other fully wireless headphones exist? Snazzy Labs brings you the most comprehensive AirPods Pro review with explanation on how Noise Cancelling, Transparency Mode, and more functions on Apple's new wireless headphones to be controlled through your iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro using Control Center.
Best AirPods Pro video I've seen, great job man!
Thanks, Austin!!
This has to be the best noise cancellation demonstration I’ve ever seen.
It was super easy to understand yet so informative.
I worked at Best Buy and just from your demonstration alone this would sell any customer who’s on the fence on buying.
Hey guys this is Austin
hey austin do you think i should but these airpods pro
*pause* HEY GUYS THIS IS AUSTIN :)
That part where you explained noise canceling was brilliant, first time I've seen any reviewer break noise cancelling down into real world scenarios
Kevin McKevinface yup, he made me understand how that works
Agree'd, the writing, editing and execution was amazing.
Yes, it was very well put.
Normal you tubers just read the spec sheet
Yes, very good demo. A lot of people don't understand what ANC is, how it works or when it works best. This was a very good demonstration.
Apple: let's name this something unique yet simple=airpods
Samsung: eh we have galaxy let's slap it on y not=galaxy buds

@@RashidTak He described the sound of the AirPods very well. They are not "high fidelity".
Nah, I think most audiophiles agree that airpods are the best wireless buds. It comes down to the usability and reliability.

I got a pair of these and no joke started to tear up from the instant relief it gave me. For the first time since my head injury I was able to be at piece. Ambient sounds like my neighbors A/C for example will keep me from getting any sleep, causing me physical pain and frustration like you wouldn’t believe. Finally I am able to be at peace with painful noise pollution.
Consider investing in a white noise machine and look up misophonia
How can a company like sony still name their products like that in 2019? "Hey, bro have you tried the Sony HAHD-Z-Y-48743 phones? They're great"
i think it costs a them to have a more streamlined name but you're right lmao
Yeah. It's definitely related to cost and laziness, all products have a long code name, it's usefull to keep track of version, inventory, manufacturing, etc... especially by companies who make a gigantic range of products like Sony but generally, nowadays there's a simplified name for marketing purposes. The product manager for the Audio at Sony is probably 75 years old and sleeping in the job...
Best comment 😂😂
It makes sense to Sony at least. The Sony Truly Wireless earbuds are called WF (wireless feature) 1000x (flagship model) M3 (Mark 3, or version 3).
same thing I thought. Apple bought him the Grand , he didn't want their consumable watch.
OMG your demo at 6:35 is pure brilliance... every other review out there has to rely on verbal descriptions and 'trust me, it works/doesn't work'. Next level!
@@drdammkid4428 imagine saying fuck off to someone giving useful info

Welp, I now know that foam tips are a thing. I've gotta try those, always thought that foam earplugs were superior to silicone and wondered why in-ear headphones didn't use them.
Indeed! Once you go foam, you’ll never go back. :)
Get Comply.
Snazzy Labs How long, do you think, before Comply makes tips for these things? It shouldn’t be too hard to copy, yeah?
One downside is that foam tips seem to be hard to get in the US. I think Comply has a patent on it. But there's grey market options.
My biggest issue with Comply foam is how fast they damage. Silicon tips last a lot longer which I guess is why manufacturers prefer them

This comment made my day.

Another good tip for good sound quality is, if you have Spotify you can go into settings and go to playback and music quality as well and readjust the music setting to kick up volume as well EQ, too. It helped a lot for a better frequency.
Dude, this is the best TH-cam review watching experience I’ve had since I first stumbled on Marques Brownlee years ago. You made it look so easy, smooth and natural...but I watch enough review videos to tell that a lot of attention to detail, i.e. scripting, editing, testing and research went into this...well done...and you know what topped all of that off and made this video so special? Your presentation character: Like talking to the friendly guy down the street who has lived there for years and has no fear of being his smart, funny, enlightened, well-to-do but humble self. The video was simple, direct, and you were interesting as a person. The same sauce Marques uses...but you my friend seem like you’ve added an extra (secret) ingredient that even Marques doesn’t have. Stay focused on the art. You could be the greatest.

The production value of this review is insanely good. Subscribed
Welcome! And thanks. 😊
Wow, I loved watching this review. Thank you.
We do, however, disagree on a few things.
I am an audio engineer, and honestly, I like the sound of my AirPod pros almost as much as my $4,000 studio monitors! They don’t shape the sound at all.
People tend to like speakers and headphones that “add” bass, or “add” sparkle, but, of course, really good speakers or headphones don’t “add” anything.
Honestly, the reproduction is very, very good in these!
On the flip side, however, they feel fragile and all apple earbuds, including these, tend to work loose and eventually drop out of my ears, which is strange because my ears hold on to all other earbuds like they’re bolted in!
The noise cancelling, on these is comparable to my Bose QCs.
........ What? What are you mixing on? Genelec? Airpods clearly have mid bump.
Loved the review too and agree. I enjoy the signature and sound of these. I think the price/performance/package is pretty impressive actually.
Thanks commenting!
Just got the Bose QC45s and the noise canceling is a little bit better than the AirPod Pros in my experience. I like the Bose better, overall but wanted the Pros for busting around outside or when I want to be more discreet with my music listening. I’m not gonna bust our giant over eat headphones just anywhere. That’s an “at home” type of thing to me.
The transition to the sponsor is on par with Linus 😂
I love the sound of the airplane, it’s just the damn baby I want to tune out ... completely
LOL
baby cancelling mode in headphones should be a thing.
just bring a roll of duct tape on every flight.
Same! I got mild tinnitus so some background noise like airplane engines or a ceiling fan help me fall asleep faster.
Godamn that fking baby wont stfu
Absolute most informative AirPods Pro review.

Justin White true best review on AirPods pro so far
I love Sony’s buds because they sound so good and I’ve always bought them...but the hassle of the XM3 is too much...so I bought Apple’s instead. I was getting tired of the cord too...

Thanks for the great review!
I would consider myself an Audiophile aswell, using my Beyerdynamics DT 1990 Pros as my everyday headphones at home (Schiit Magni/Modi Stack)
Since my old bluetooth earphones somehow got technical issues after just 5 months, I went for the AirPods Pro for all the convenience, especially since I‘m using an iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and can flawlessly switch between devices.
But how about sound quality?
I am personally pleased with how they sound for casual wearing. They aren‘t as precise as 1More Tripple drivers (obviously no chance against the beyers, no comparison needed here), but they‘re yet detailled enough to enjoy your music, no matter how complex it is. Bass is punchy and very precise, whilst not being as overloaded as the 1Mores bass (which is still precise, but incredibly strong, probably just for bassheads, didn‘t enjoy it long term). What I‘m absolutely fine with is the mids, nothing to complain about. Here, they are fair competition to the 1Mores.
Fun thing about the fit and silicon earplugs: I had custom aftermarket foam pads on my 1More and yes, soundquality improved. But no, wearing comfort for me did not at all. Somehow, I seem to have massive issues wearing foam pads and I sadly can‘t get any in ear headphones to permanently fit well without falling out. BUT the AirPods Pro managed to do exactly this. This makes them an absolute winner for me.
Also, regarding noise cancellation: I‘ve been going with Sonys WH-1000XM2 and the original XMR-1000 (don‘t have them anymore, both had a strange cracking/vibrating sound after ~1 year whilst listening to music, especially during bassy parts, sounded like a loose piece of metal) and the mark 2‘s noise cancellation was obviously superior to the AirPods Pro‘s, but not at all with the same wearing comfort. As you said, the AirPods Pro aren‘t even realisable in the ear. When I first plugged them into my ears I was blown away, because I was in the middle of a busy train station and suddenly had complete silence listening to music (for the first time not even being capable of hearing my own steps, that didn‘t work using overears before) whilst not even feeling any headphones and being sure they fit😂
All in all, great review, fair point regarding sound quality, it‘s not yet comparable to wired InEar quality, but considering technical complexity of fitting all this into such incredibly tiny inears together with a reliable battery they are definitely the best go-to completely wireless inear headphones in total.
If you want the best audio quality, you truly don‘t want to go for wireless headphones of any kind. If you want great inear sound quality and don‘t really care about a neckband and NoiseCancelling, get the 1More Tripple Driver Bluetooth at just above 100$. (To my knowledge, they‘re available with ANC for additional 20-30$), but forget about the convenience of AirPods on the go;)
Unbelievable video. So thorough and thought out. Love this.
Cheers! 👊
I love my AirPods Pro but I really don’t like how they removed the tapping controls. I really liked tapping twice on my right ear to skip a song or on my left to rewind a song.
I don’t understand what you meant with “painful” or “annoying” since all it required was two really light taps.
I agree somewhat, but have you tried tapping on AirPods Pro? *that* would be painful and annoying, because the sound is amplified by the silicone tips and transparency mics.
I like the tapping on AirPods, but I appreciate that it just wouldn’t have worked on AirPods Pro.
i personally think pressing a button is better than just tapping, because everytime i would readjust my normal airpods i’d accidentally skip the song

sound quality of the original AirPods was trash.
You’re a champ.
Thank you I was getting tired of listening to him have sex with the airpods.
Lukas Tran you’ve tried them have you?
Yeah, Sony might need to work on their naming scheme.
Also that ending with the Galaxy Buds. 10/10
truely satisfying!
And their software! I'm looking at the Bose 700 now because Sony's lengthy history of firmware issues w the MX3. Doesn't surprise me a bit that their software also sucks for their earbuds.
Yep same here still best
It would be interesting to see apple make a pair of headphones optimized for sound. Not size, not form factor- sound.
I think the engineering department could really kill it. But the shortcomings would be it being bulky/chunky and overall more unsightly.
That’s where the pro excels, the design/engineering teams try to find the optimal zone for sound experience, comfort and design.
Not so sure here, I think both are indeed combinable but apple just happens to care more on the design and general experience
Hands down and without a doubt, this is the best review on the new airpods.

As an audiophile i think the sound quality of the airpods pro sounded really good. Its not like audiophile grade headset but its good enough to non audiophile ppl. Our standard of sound quality isn’t their lvl, but the sound it produced is actually loved by a lot of audiophile. Crisp meds and good enough bass and high makes it perfect, not too warm and bass heavy but perfect for variety of types of ppl from teenage to old. Some headphone (audiophile grade) sounded very technical which is not everyone can appreciate like how good the bass how detailed it is. You just need a balance signature suitable for everyone.
Bdw good to hear you mentioned KZ they’re one big player in chifi industry. I actually owned a lot of their products its fascinating how good a $20 iem really than expensive brand like 64audio can offer.
I’ll stick with my nuratrue’s lol
I don’t understand. What makes an audiophile? Like are y’all a different race or something? Us non audiophiles could never understand what truly good sound is. It seems a bit narcissistic to me. I mean we all have ears. And the ability to determine what sounds good and what doesn’t.
@@EyeForKnowledge. it’s literally just experience. what sounds good to a person who uses a $1000+ audio system will be different on average compared to what sounds good to a person who uses the earbuds that are included with their phone

Not all heroes wear capes. Tysm.
I'm watching this after having just recently bought the 1st gen Airpods, and I gotta say while I would LOVE the features the Pro makes available I still don't feel bad about buying the 1st gen Airpods simply because I wanted them as an option for not having something in my ear canal. That's the feature that sells me on the 1st gen, and kills all of my interest in the Pro. Also before anyone says "but you need that for the Pro's features to work", I understand that. It doesn't make the Pro any more appealing to me when the #1 thing I personally like about the Airpods is sacrificed for it.
I don't buy your argument
@@joeysludge4041 Okay? That's your thing then. I don't like having things in my ear canal, and therefore the AirPod Pros do not work for me. It's as simple as that.

Wow, best review of these so far.
Thanks!
"Willing to sacrifice performance for convenience" - you hit the nail on the head there. For me, the connection stability and multi-device connection are the killer features. No other wireless headphone is anything like as accomplished as the AirPods Pro in this respect. This makes them a no-brainer as commuting headphones for me.
Great review, thanks!
That's the one upside to a walled garden. Everything seamlessly works in tandem.
The convenience is amazing right? The biggest one for me personally though is how they fit, original AirPods are just terrible and majority of other brands are way too bulky to warrant extended wearing times, but the AirPods pro are absolutely spot on, that combined with the convenience I’m finding I’m listening to more music than ever despite owning superior sounding headphones/earbuds.
@@RockBandRS I'm switching them between an iPhone and a Windows 10 PC, and they're working great on both, easily switching back and forth. The microphone quality is terrible on Windows, but I'm not sure whose fault that is: Windows is limiting the mic to 8khz.
It's not convenient. You need to turn on Bluetooth than go to settings and connect them from there.
one of the best reviews of any devices i've come across in a while.

Yes, the Sony earbuds dropped connections all the time, didn’t switch devices well, had weird battery charge/gauge issues, and are not the most comfortable. But the sound was so great (until you turn on the NC) over everything else!
But, the dealbreaker for me was how BAD the microphones on the Sony’s are! People on calls couldn’t hear me - even in a quiet room - had to revert to the phone more than once. I could’ve put up with a lot of issues from the Sony’s for that sound - but not being able to take phone calls isn’t one...
Earphones with ANC really have bad microphone quality
Red Hood the air pod pros are pretty good
That’s what I like about Apple, they generally get a lot of things right all around and rarely forget on something like microphone sensitivity. Probably cause they have so many employees
ah... i'm having the same issue, got the sony's, am really happy with them, but am about to send them back, because of the microphone issue, plus i guess siri and pairing works a bit more seamlessly with airpods (although it havent found it bad with sony), still, do prefer the bigger not white case(harder to lose so easily, and the white i find cheap and ugly) and the larger battery life...
I had the exact same problems with my Sony WF1000-XM3s.
The people on the other side of the call say I sound like a Robot and I have the take them out for calls. I could forgive them if they cost £50 but certainly not for their price.
Amazon have insisted on a "repair" rather than a refund twice and they're still not working. I've sent them back for a third time… Not the usual Amazon service I'm used to.
I love the sound of the Sony's but they're completely unreliable.
I tested the Air Pods Pro last week and they were technically flawless!
Dude I totally thought they actually click when I squeeze them. It’s super convincing.
Yeah I only now found out it wasn’t an actual click
Honestly, "audiophile" has become an empty word. In my book an audiophile is someone who goes out of their way to listen to hi-res music. Most self-proclaimed audiophiles fail this really basic criterion, listening to Spotify on their Bluetooth earbuds.
liteoner they’re like douchey wine connoisseurs. Ask them to blind test in isolation and they all come up with different douchey superlatives. It’s about as scientific as the science behind snake oil.
@@69memnon69 I hesitate to agree with this, but given that other tests I've seen say the AirPods Pro sound as good or better than the Sonys...
Tidal
Honestly, 99% of people can't tell the difference between lossless and 320kbps MP3.
Nah dude, for most people audiophiles are those people who can hear the difference between FLAC and MP3, and who'll appreciate more high end headphones
Althought still I'm hoping for Z review of airpods pro :P
I thought the same thing about the Sony's until I customized the eq and now they sound amazing with and without the NC.
yeah the Sony's are great.
What settings please?
this is what i needed, review from someone who actually cares about sound quality
This video was AMAZING. Subbed simply on the basis of this.
I was in need of headphones, my old ones broke.
This Video was timed perfect, now i know which ones to get.
No not the airpods pro, i mean the KZ ZST lmao
Kaan Kaya lol thos are ahit
Snappycrane7 shit*
@@snappycrane7279 why so?
@@KK-zx5ju Frequency response isn't very good. The Tin HiFi T3 is much better
I ordered a pair a few days ago and they showed up yesterday, they sound great and they're super comfortable
But they gave me a transparent copper cable that's really unappealing especially considering the the ZST Pros (the ones I have) are multicolored
Sony: say my name
Every single soul: *confused screaming
Me as intelectual: ah ..new wifi password
This sounds weird, but I really like the lighting in this video.
LLoose Agreed, but 9:25 was too dark. I wonder if he had the brightness on his editing computer turned way up and was unable to recognize how dark it really was. Always good to edit in a well-lit room with your screen at a _moderate_ brightness so that viewing in both bright and dim areas is easier.
A gaffer somewhere just got their wings
I was listening to this, not watching cause I was doing other stuff at the same time, then silence came at 6:56, and I thought that was some good noise cancellation. Then I realised, an ad was buffering.
Very well executed review. Finally a reviewer who actually goes into detail about the AUDIO QUALITY.
Exactly
“If you are willing to sacrifice performance over convenience” - literally every product of Apple
Naa. iPhones and iPads are ridiculously powerful.
uhhh The iPhone 11/11 Pro is probably the best performing phone on the market.
@@lavishlalwani LMAO
Every product but their iPads/iPhones
This guy deserves MUCH MORE subs, cmon folks.
You’re jogging on the highway?!
Best headphone review I’ve seen, the overall quality of your videos has been going up recently, this is my favorite yet. In all regards, not just picture quality. Nice job to you and your employee(s)
Thanks so much, Brayden. We are working hard. :)
