- OPPO Enco Air3 Pro vs OPPO Enco Air2 Pro | Best Earbuds Under 5k ?
The OPPO Enco Air3 Pro & OPPO Enco Air2 Pro aren’t exactly worlds apart. They’ve got a lot of similarities and it makes you wonder if OPPO is going to discontinue the OPPO Enco Air2 Pro. I certainly hope they don’t because its still super value for money at what its being sold for. The OPPO Enco Air3 Pro is more of a small evolution over the OPPO Enco Air2 Pro which is a classic example of demising returns but it all boils down to personal preference.

One of the very few reviewers who really know what they are talking about, when it comes to audio. Awesome as always. 👍
The calling test is awesome
Master video and comparison
Paul
I am fan of your videos and details which you cover
Really well researched and well explained video. Keep up the good work brother🙏
Woow such a detailed and clean review. Sure I am gonna follow ur reviews from now on.
I must say one if the best tws comparison videos I have seen
Hey, love your content! Can you please do a video on the Oppo Enco X2? I've seen a bunch of reviews, but I'm really curious about your unique take and style. Your in-depth approach would be perfect for exploring all the details of these earbuds. Can't wait to watch your video on them! Keep up the great work! 🎥👍
Hi Nitin, as much as I've wanted to review the X2, it's been proven to be difficult to get my hands on. Someday, perhaps.
Thank you Paul and Greetings as always ! 🙂👍
Greetings Matthias 😊
nice video and missed it before ordering....had i seen the video earlier i would have saved 1500....anyway nice tech knowledge...have a great future man....
Bro, I am getting Galaxy Buds Live and Pixel Buds A both on 4000, so would those be a good upgrade over air 2 pro?
Please make a video on best wireless headphones under 5000. Also consider Skullcandy Riff Wireless 2(it is available at around 5000 after coupon) and sennheiser HD 400S. Thanks.
Hi Paul sir, today was the day i discovered one of the great tech review channels of yours. I really found it amazing the details in which you go for the reviews. I need an expert advice on which is the best tws for running and taking calls under 6000, please anwer this query or make a video on it. I would be very great full to you. Thanks 🙏
I haven't reviewed many sports specific earphones for running. The last one was the Yamaha TW-ES5A, which I quite liked but feel it doesn't have enough kick in the bass to motivate someone too much if they like heavy bass. It's more natural sounding, which I personally prefer. But coming back to what you've asked about, I reviewed the Soundcore Life Dot 2 NC, which was a great sounding set of earphones, and holds very securely for running, too. I'm not too sure if it's still available and what rate it's being sold for, but feel free to have a look at my review on it if you'd like to.
Most regular TWS earphones may not stay in the ear for running, this does depend a lot of individual ear shapes and sizes, so having a sports earphone with winglets usually ensures better holding and security of the bid to prevent it from falling out of the ear.
@PaulsPOV Could you please compare JBL Tune Beam with Realme Buds air 5 pro and Oppo' Latest Enco? With Price ANC and other features and price for upcoming Flipkart or Amazon sale..
Thank you! This is such a great review! One thing that stood out is that the air 3 pro seems to have worse mic quality outdoor.
Yup, I find it very odd that oppo already got it right and messed up with the newer version.
Great review❤
Between oppo m 32 neckband n oppo air 2 pro tws wat should i buy if budget is not an issue n good sound is a priority. Thaanks.
Paul u r a life saver. I was a bit confused if I should get 2 pro or 3 pro. I am a bit sensitive to higher frequency and I have scene hints from other reviews out there that air 3 pro has a bit sharper highs. Your review just nailed it. I am not very particular about ldac and I want battery life over high res audio. So i guess I can save a bit of cash if I opt for 2 pro and will buy a case with the saved cash. 😜 Appreciate the good work!!
I just hope you don't feel outdated and develop a sense of inferiority complex overtime because you're gonna miss many upgraded features like 49 Db ANC, 47 ms gaming, alive audio, Blutooth 5.3, golden sound etc. Which Realme buds air 5 will also bring soon to compete under the 5k segment. They all seem like an ever so slight upgrade but it all matters to make your experience so much more fluid and enjoyable.✌️
@@thonwalojemu9430 I don't game and I just want it for home use. So a decent anc would suffice for me. My priority was good sound quality on a budget and like every other review is saying pro 3 is just a tiny bit better at it than pro 2. Funny part is that pro 3 is advertised saying it's frequency range is till 40khz. Humans cannot hear above 20khz, so that's that.
Rather than downgrade, you should wait for Realme Buds Air 5 Pro. It's rumoured to be around the same price range with 40hrs of battery back up.
As a person who have been using enco x2 and compared it side by side to air 2 pro and 3 pro
I can clearly say that air 3 pro's are not harsh at all
Slightly more than the x2 but it's done just right
Yes if you don't care about ANC that much get the air 2 pro because the sound quality is still amazing
@@Subhranil. Can we compare which one out of these two against enco x2 in terms of sound quality and anc
what benefit or advantage thats oppo encore air 3 pro user who combine oppo phone to use together? do they need to acess hey melody apps too?
Hey paul! The toggle to switch off in-ear detection on/off is there in earbud function section, although i am not reffering to hey melody app, it is from the inbuilt bluetooth settings for enco air 3 pro in oneplus & other oppo phones.
Yea, which is why I find it quite odd that it's not been included in the HeyMelody app. I find it very helpful when doing A-B testing for sound.
Yeah that was weird from oppo, but can be fixed along with the audio/ video not pausing while taking call or auto switching to other device, just needs a firmware update. & thanks for the review as usual, you have created a niche audiophile community here, big up brother!
You are the best reviewer till the date i know of
I am using oppo A5 (2018). Even if I go to Bluetooth in settings and select LDAC or AAC option, when I close the app and open it later, it goes to default option, so does it make sense for me to buy oppo enco air 3 pro. Can I listen to hi res audio in apple music?
How its fitting...?
Hats off to you for comparing the size. The Air2 pro hurts my ear so bad, I had to return them. Really liked the sound quality though. Hopefully the Air3 pro fixes it as you have mentioned.
Its slightly smaller housing of slightly differently shaped bud doesn't cause me discomfort like the Air2 Pro did, but I've seen one or two comments where the Air3 Pro does cause discomfort for some individuals. This is the issue with ear sizing. It's quite subjective.
Bro i was convinced to buy air 2 pro , but after this comment, do you have any better suggestions in this price range
Same problem Bro but Flipkart is not a accepting return though return window is open? What to do now?
Whose ANC is better, or it's same on both?
Are you saying A3 pro is smaller in build? The video on 1:40 the A2 pro seem to look smaller instead
I m trying to connect oppo enco air 3 pro to my laptop but it wont show up in bluetooth i have them on pairing mode but it wont show even after resetting and I also turned on the dual pair option
Paul thanks for putting this one. I posted a comment on your review of enco air 3 pro. I saw someone pointed out it is not working on windows, I just saw your jbl tune beam review. For office calling purpose specially teams would you suggest jbl beam as an option? Or enco air 2 pro? As I'm still not sure if 3 pro can connect to windows plus i find air 2 pro has better mic
I'm not too sure about the Tune Beam, but I know the 230NC wasn't compatible with Teams. Someone mentioned to me in the comments of the Air3 Pro review that the latest firmware the Air3 Pro is on has, in fact, sorted out the Windows issue. Sadly, I have no way to test this out myself.
You, considering the Air2 Pro isn't such a bad idea because, very obviously, it does carry your voice clearer over to your recipients than the Air3 Pro.
Bro it was me complaining however they fixed it.. No worries
🤣 Thanks for the input! Always helps people stopping by here.
Thanks both, I'll see which one I chose air 2 pro looks a more vfm at least for me. I'm not an audiophile just need a good earphone with good mic
Hello sir, i was waiting your comparison between these two tws. Great work again and keep going. I have been using Air2 pro for almost 8 months now. Only issue i have is comfort as even i have smaller ear concha. It really hurts and disturbs the experience in the longer sessions as it has larger buds. What is your suggestion Paul sir?
I haven't felt discomfort or pain with the Air3 Pro, but if you do have smaller ears than me, you might just feel some discomfort. They have made it a bit smaller, it seems. Otherwise, I would've definitely felt discomfort/pain. The best thing would be ofcourse if you could try them out but I don't know of any place that would have demo units, so perhaps if you know someone who has them so you can try it out before you buy.
Thank you for your suggestion sir.
@@PaulsPOV Demo units are available across most exclusive oppo showrooms
Hii sir,i am looking for a pair of tws under 5k,and all i want from them is the most enjoyable music experience one can get from a pair of tws under 5k,as i use basic wired earphones for calls and stuff,my topmost and only priority is music,i don't care much about features,battery or ANC as well,all i want is good music quality + good bass,which one would you recommend?
What about comparing to Airpods Pro 2 ANC and sound quality?
Was questioning myself the exact thing, because I already had enco air 2 pro, I gave to my brother.
Hey Paul, awesome comparison video! 👍
I'm torn between oppo air 3 pro and the yamaha e3b. One is rich in features while the other has better sound tech.
Im currently also using the salnotes zero and the meze 99 neo as my other sound gears. So sound quality is important to me and also taking calls occasionally. Can u pls help?
If you're okay with how the E3B handles its calls, it's the one to go for. Especially since you're listening to good audio already. The oppo has features, sure. But it's not a touch when it comes to how IEMs handle theirs. The E3B comes closest to them and comes in its wireless form.
Thanks Paul! That helps 👍
Today i got it for 2977 in Flipkart with axis credit card offer.. Can i chage the case with out buds with redmi 10w chager + buds cable?
what is the natural inspiration eq mode on the Air3 Pro? does it boost the vocals or boost the highs better?
It gets sibilant, more nasal in the vocals, and highs can get fatiguing.
Bro oppo enco air 3 windows 11 me connecting problem hoti h ya nhi kyuki leptop windows Bluetooth 5.2 koi issue ayega ya nhi or oppo enco air 3 Bluetooth 5.3 h koi prblm hoga ya nhi plss hlp bro....??
Bro can u tell me one thing ... AIr 2 in 3499 or air 3 in 4599 for value for money ... Which one
Hi Paul, thanks for your detailed review. I borrow airpods pro from my friend and tested with my android phone. The ANC, soundstage was awesome and I felt I am sitting in middle of the big theater. I could feel out of the world experience in all the songs I heard. Do we have any such tws around the budget of 10k or even low.
The airpods are why this market has picked up. They're great at what they do, and it's difficult to emulate that same experience with anything below a 10k budget. I've heard Sony XM4 buds that have their own largeness in sound, but they are also expensive. Apple, with their R&D, tech know how and marketing experience know exactly what to do and how to do it, which is why they're trend setters. They have their own charm really. You may not find anything like it, despite many people claiming every new set of earphones to be the new "airpod killer".
@@PaulsPOV Thanks for your response. Anything can be comparable with its anc and sound quality with Android devices when we increase the budget till 20k. If no option, are you suggesting to use airpods pro with Android devices of price is not a constraint. Only requirement is sound quality and anc, other additional features are secondary
The Sony WF-1000XM4 I tested was quite impressive on a sound and ANC front. I think it's going for a better price now since the XM5 has been launched. You should be able to get a demo of them at any Sony showroom. Try them out and see if you like them.
@@PaulsPOV I think in terms of comfort it is one of the con with sony xm4. Are you suggesting to go with airpods pro 1st gen if I get it for 12k with my samsung s21 fe over xm4
Yea, some people have found the XM4 uncomfortable. I can't really comment on the airpods pro because I haven't tested them. But if you liked them so much, it makes sense to pick up a set for yourself. No one else's take or opinion really matters, especially if you've heard something and like it as much as you seem to.
Bhai bgm btado konsa use kiya hai please
Sir also include which is best for Spotify user's
ONE QUESTION, When you're on dual mode and a call comes, will the multimedia be paused or you have to do it manually at the point of the call being transferred?
The media will continue to play and will not pause while you're on your call.
Similarly, if you're listening to device A and press play on device B, the audio will continue to play back from device A and will only switch over to device B when A is paused.
PAUL SIR.. PAUL SIR..PAUL SIR !!!❤
*I am always immensely enamored by the kind of knowledge you spread in terms of sound and music...*
Just Woooohoo !!! And Thank you a million times for being around.🙏
THIS COMPARISON WAS VERY MUCH NEEDED *ESPECIALLY FROM YOU* SINCE I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE DONE THE OPPO Enco Air2 pro REALLY WELL IN THE PAST...
So Thanks for yet another awesome video and coincidentally I am watching this on the Oppo Enco Air2 pro which tho is now being used permanently by my wife...
*I purposely borrowed* the same from her to rebuild my old sound relationship with Oppo.
*EVEN THO FOR JUST THIS VIDEO*
Not sure about other viewers but the *CALL QUALITY OF THE ANCESTOR was much refined than the Air3Pro...*
(Maybe my Personal opinion....for that moment of the Video , this is what I felt.)
I very much thought that I might at one time upgrade from Oppo Enco Air2 Pro to Air3 Pro but considering my medical issue of high frequency sound loss in 1 ear, I thought I should not go for it.
40K HZ and LDAC *might not be too good for my partly damaged inner right ear* even at 40% volume.
Meanwhile...(
I am still stuck up ( and happily content) with OnePlus Nord CE2 ( Half in ear..) and that is *my present ongoing Sob story...* 😷
With my son borrowing my favourite ONEPLUS Buds Z2 to use with his iPhone 14 Max Pro and surprisingly he is still quite satisfied with those at the moment, hence saving me a lot of *stress of spending ₹20,000* extra had he gone for the Apple Earpods Pro or whatever they are named and cost 25K+. (Hehe)
Always nice seeing you here Jeasbe 😊
We share the same opinion on the call quality between these two earphones. The Air2 Pro is seriously value for money. I'm surprised how well it does up against the Air3 Pro when it comes to calls and even its sound. It's no slouch.
@@PaulsPOV Sir
🙏❣️
Hey paul ,which TWS will you prefer to buy nothing ear stick or oppo enco Air 3 pro since it both comes in the same price range now?
That boils down to if you want an open design or a sealed one. I prefer the sealed one for noisy environments and the open for quiet spaces. The Nothing does have a lot more control over its app than the HeyMelody app, which is a plus. But yea, no ANC on the sticks also. So it's really a matter of preference there. Have a look at my review on it if you haven't already.
Are you doing doing realme vs oppo?
Hi there! Great video, really in-depth!
My question is about the OPPO Enco Air2 Pro. I presume they have proximity sensors? As in, if you take one or both of the buds out of your ear, the music/video or whatever will automatically pause since it detects that it is no longer in your ear?
If this is the case, is there a way to deactivate it in the mobile software?
The reason I ask is I have this problem with the OnePlus buds I currently have - they have a super-sensitive sensor which continually pauses the audio, even though they are in my ears without moving
These aren't that sensitive. They work pretty well, but this function can't be turned off via the HeyMelody app I've noticed. I've been told that it can be turned off via an oppo or one plus phone for some reason.
Hey, thanks for the quick reply! I've been searching for a way to turn off the auto-pause feature and so have a lot of other people. It doesn't seem possible. My phone is a OnePlus 8 pro@@PaulsPOV
Someone mentioned that you can do it on a OnePlus & Oppo phone in one of my video comments. Apparently, it can be done via the Bluetooth settings section. I haven't been able to do it on my phone, I use a Samsung, and the HeyMelody app doesn't let me do it either. It's a feature I miss, especially when I'm doing A-B listening.
I'd love if you or anyone could point me to that comment, or explain here how it's done. I just had another look now and I don't see any option in the bluetooth settings related to deactivating auto-pause. There are lots of forum posts online from other users with the same problem.@@PaulsPOV
I'm in the same boat as you 🤣 Let's hope someone sees this and helps with this information.
Hey Paul,
Hope you're doing well! I'm in a bit of a dilemma and could really use your input. I'm looking to buy a pair of earbuds with a budget of Rs 4000. My main concern is the lifespan of the earbuds. I want to make sure I'm investing in something that will last. If you have any recommendations or insights on brands or models that are known for their durability, I'd really appreciate your advice.
I'd point you in the direction of the oppo enco air2 pro. All oppos I've had have taken me for well over 2 years until they showed signs of battery degradation, and they haven't given me any issues during that time as well. No visits to any service centers during that time.
How would you compare jbl 230nc and tune beam with air 3 pro can plz suggest which is best i dont care about the anc and sound quality and call quality and are my preferences i am really confused about what to choose.
If you're very particular about detail and clarity in your music, the Air3 Pro does the best of the lot when it's using the LDAC Codec. While on AAC, the Tune Beam and it are kind of similar. I haven't done any proper A-B testing to know for certain yet. But if you don't plan on using LDAC and battery life happens to be important to you, the Tune Beam knocks the ball out of the park here. Forget about the 230NC it's been known to have some flaws.
I do have a comparison between the Tune Beam and 230NC. Feel free to give it a watch if you'd like to.
Thank you paul for detail review. In August 10, Realme buds air 5 pro is coming. Eagerly waiting for the review
Ah, thanks for letting me know. I was wondering when it's going to be launched.
Yeah, they just announced it on twitter and amazon got the coming soon banner. I will upgrade this month from oppo air 2 pro. Since battery is poor on oppo, waiting to see what realme is offering.
And you know, my air 2 pro left bud is discharging itself within 1 hour. Shocking.
That's strange. How old is your Air2 Pro? I've never had battery issues with any of my oppos before 2yrs of use. If it's within a year, you should claim the warranty.
@@PaulsPOV Its just 6 months old, I found an odd bug, that the case and buds cannot charge over 90%, i am thinking of going to service center. And with ldac on and anc on. Battery life could be 10% better atleast. Thats what making me wait for realme air 5 pro.
Hey Paul- Great video. Best comparison for calling.
I need only for calling. What's the best earbuds for calling . In Calling test enco air 2 pro sounded better. Please suggest.
Any other suggestion for best tws for calling under 5k and 10k???
Have a look at the call demo of the JBL Tune Beam I've done. It performs pretty well. Between these two oppos, the Air2 Pro is a better performer for sure.
@@PaulsPOV Thank you.
Is the call quality of one plus buds z2 better than oppo enco buds air 2???
Give the call chapter a listen and see which one you prefer in this video 👇🏼
th-cam.com/video/02oj56RyONs/w-d-xo.html
@@PaulsPOV thank you so much
Dude, thanks for enco air2 pro. I was waiting for your review for air3 pro.... gifting this one to my wife.
I give up, Air3 pro as bad ENC compared to ANC
It's really strange that they wouldn't make it at par, if not any better than the Air2 Pro. I suppose there had to be some cost cutting somewhere.
Hey Paul I have some doubts I am mostly on office attending conference calls which will be best between those for attending calls or should I go for Neckband for calling purpose (I am sorrounded by other employees btw so if their voice can be cancelled that'll be a plus point), than again after office work I hardly attend any call I Will be using it for Music/movies/games so what you say which one should I get or should I go for Neckband?
I haven't reviewed many neck bands, and the last one I did I quite liked, but it's more of a premium one. Don't expect ANC or ENC to reduce voices close to you. They focus more on droning noises than sudden and variating sounds like voices and honking.
If you do have the budget for the Yamaha EP-E70A, I'd highly recommend it. It's a great all-rounder. But if your budget is within 5K, the Air3 Pro is great, but I'm a bit disappointed with its call quality. If you can stretch for the JBL Tune Beam, it's a great set to own.
@@PaulsPOV okay mate I am considering air2pro and air 3 pro I'll be getting one of those
They're both great. But if calling is your priority, the Air2 Pro does seem to do a better job of carrying a voice over to your recipients.
Should i buy firebolt invincible plus or not please tell paul?
I have no idea what this is.
Hey Paul, I have been searching a lot to buy my first pair of TWS, and came across your channel. You are doing great work here man. The Call quality test was so useful to me.
For me call quality and ANC are the most important. I am considering Air 2 Pro and also Galaxy buds 2. Havent found any proper review of Buds 2 ANC. Which one would you suggest for me to buy?
As much as I'd like to help you, I haven't tested the Galaxy Buds 2, so I wouldn't want to give you any wrong information about them. But the few sets if earphones I've enjoyed when it comes to their ANC are the Air2 Pro, Air3 Pro, Nothing Ear1 & Ear2. These cut noises really well without causing pressure in the ear or causing nausea. I do like what JBL has done with the Tune Beam, it's not as aggressive an ANC as these other earphones but does well, again, without causing pressure or nausea.
I have tested the earphones I've mentioned, so feel free to give my reviews on them a watch if you'd like to.
Hope this helps.
@@PaulsPOV Thanks for the reply man. I'll update once I make the decision.
@@niranjansubash8473which one did u chose?
Hey Paul, I have bought the Air2 Pro, been using it for a while. I am happy and satisfied with it. Thanks for your suggestions.
Enjoy your new earphones 😊
its not available in online as well as offline platform....
Compare these with samsung buds 2 please that are priced for ₹6300 with card offers.
My priority was music, calling and multipoint. Pro 2 has good calling and music but no multipoint easy switching and pro 3 was very bad in calling. Why there's no tws with all three feature working good under 5k. Bhai ye dukh kaye khatam nahi hota..
Realme air 5 pro
How do u think these compare to iem like "tangzu wan'er" in sound quality *without* the use of external dac/amp? If iem is better then pls suggest 1 under 2k?
Any IEM under 2k is superior to these when it comes to clarity/detail. Feel free to have a look at this video about them 👇🏼
th-cam.com/video/jiPVuxs86MI/w-d-xo.html
I found air 2 pro mic quality is way better than air 3 pro.
True bro
Yes, air 2 pro calling was way better than air 3 pro.
Definitely looking for realme air 5 pro because it has 3 mics per buds.
That's where the cost cutting went to. Since under 5000 it provides sound quality like 10000 tws.
I'm used both of them sound quality is marginally better in air3pro , paying 1500 extra for 10% better sound is not best deal so buy air2pro guys . Sound quality is almost same on both .
Hey! Do u recommend air 3 pro or Samsung galaxy buds 2 (if we're getting it for similar price i e 5000) ?
I haven't tested the Samsung earphones yet, so I wouldn't want to give you any wrong information.
@@PaulsPOV respect!
I have the air 2 pro and ear 2. Might need to give it away soon. Is it worth getting the air 3 pro @4k as a replacement or retain one of the above devices?
Oh damn...I like both the sets you have. If it sound you're after, the Ear2 might have similar or slightly sharper detail than the Air 3 Pro. Plus that parametric EQ gives you way more control over your music than what you get in the Hey Melody app for the Air 3 Pro. Hold onto the Ear2 I'd say for music.
The Air2 Pro is better for calls compared to the new gen for some reason.
@@PaulsPOV ok, sounds like air 3 pro is out of the picture. Any recommendation that would be a good upgrade from ear2 and in 5k?
Have a look at my Earfun Air Pro3 review.
@@PaulsPOV thanks.
Hi Paul, As i listen to wav tracks , will the ldac mode on air 3 pro deliver full quality sound or will it be only good for flac files.AAC/SBC codecs cannot bring the full potential of wav or flac files while listening right?
LDAC will be richer in detail compared to using the SBC & AAC codec for sure, but it'll cap you at 990kbps. If your source files sit at 800-990kbps, you'll be fine. If some of your files are 3-5mbps like some of mine are, your bottle neck will be the codec. Hi-Res, I'll always prefer using wired earphones or headphones for this very reason.
@@PaulsPOV 990 kbps as in bitrate or transmission code rate right?Yes just now noticed few track's bitrate is around 1.4mbps.
LDAC caps at 990 for bit rate. So your files will play, but it'll be capped at this bit rate. The same goes if you use a Hi-Res file and play back via AAC or SBC. Your app will read the Hi-Res audio, but the packets your phone sends will have a bit rate as high as whatever codec it is you're transmitting.
@@PaulsPOV I got it Paul.This was really helpful.Thankyou so much for your sharing your knowledge.🙏🙏❤
I'm happy to help 😊
Hey Paul
Currently I am using Dizo wireless power neckband and thinking to buy a good Tws
Which one should I go with the Air 3 pro or Air 2 pro because I don't know much about this Ldac thing and I want a good sounding pair with some calling too.
Is that 1500 price difference really make sense?
Please suggest a good set from Air 2 Pro, Air 3 pro and Realme buds Air3
Realme Buds Air3 I wouldn't recommend at all if you're planning on making any calls. It was a little too metallic sounding for me, I prefer the Oppo Enco Air2 Pro on a sound front over it any day. The Air3 Pro is a nice set to own, but expect diminishing returns from it compared to the Air2 Pro. If you're particular about wanting better detail in your audio, the LDAC codec makes a difference, but at the cost of halving the battery life when used. Consider looking at the JBL Tune Beam if you have that kind of budget. It's a good all-rounder with terrific battery life.
I am thinking to save some money that's why this came in my mind though I'll search for jbl
But if one have to choose between air 2 pro and air 3 pro which should one own.
Now I got too much confused
I want a good sounding earphone with little calling and simply don't want to regret later as i did with dizo what should i get?
Also i do own moto g82 but not 100% sure that it support ldac or not
The Air2 Pro is a great set to own. Any comparisons ice done with it, it always comes on top with its sound. If LDAC isn't important to you, there's no need to consider the Air3 Pro. Call wise, the Air2 Pro does seem to be better with calls, which is surprising. I've gone into detail about how different the Air2 Pro and Air3 Pro sound, so it should give you an idea about which ones sound profile you'd prefer. I'd say the Air2 Pro is a very safe investment. The Air3 Pro can offend some people if they're sensitive to high frequencies.
@@PaulsPOV thankyou man now i got a clear idea
@@PaulsPOV Hey Paul finally Got the Oppo enco air 2 pro after watching your review also they were available offline.
Honestly the sound quality is good and after tweking it with wavelet it got more beautiful.
Also have to consider the microphone difference as calling is also important.
Thanks for your suggestion
But please tell me these things
1. How can I get the case battery percentage
2. How can i know that case is fully charged because led light is constantly glowing while charging
3. Currently I'm charging them with xiaomi 5v 2A charger but can I charge them with Moto 33W charger will it affect battery health?
I have Oneplus Buds z2 and was facing the issue of heavy audio stuttering when I keep my phone (OnePlus Nord) in pocket when I'm outdoor. Got Air3 pro, still having the same issue. Have you faced any such issues?
I haven't, but it sounds like your transmitter isn't a powerful enough one.
@@PaulsPOV I see, so I need to switch my phone instead of earbuds, I guess. Also, both the earphone I have the right one doesn't fit properly and keeps falling off, do you think a neckband would be a better choice here?
Fit wise, since you do have this issue of earphones falling out, consider going and trying a few at a Croma store of they have demo units because fit is even more subjective than sound.
Also, try using someone else's phone to see if this issue really is isolated to your phone.
Should I go for Samsung earbuds 2 pro or jbl 230 nc for best sound quality?
I haven't tested the Samsung earphones, so I wouldn't want to give you any wrong information. But if you're considering the 230NC, I'd say have a look at the Tune Beam instead. It's a great evolution over the 230NC.
Which Earbuds Should I Buy? Lypertek Z2 2.0 or Oppo Air 3 pro. please tell me!
I haven't tested the Lypertek, so I wouldn't want to give you any wrong information.

In oppo enco air 3 pro you can switch off in ear detection in earbuds controls section
between oneplus z2, samsung galaxy buds 2, oppo enco air 3 pro, Air 2 pro and Realme Ai5 5 pro buds, which ones are better?
I am a samsung s21 fe user. Will be using it primarily for call (that's a priority) followed by listening to music (not very high standard). And I am getting z2 and air 3 pro for 3.5k.
samsung buds 2 for 4k, oppo air 2 pro for 2.8k and air 5 pro for 5k only.
Please recommend.
I've got call demos available to listen to in the call chapters of my Air2 Pro, Air3 Pro, Realme Buds Air 5 Pro, and Buds Z2 reviews. Give them a listen in the call chapters and see which one suits you. I think the Buds Air5 Pro does pretty well as well as the Air2 Pro. I haven't tested the Samsung yet, so I wouldn't know how it performs.
Wow.. I am air 2 pro user for 1.5yrs ... But still this earphone feels like new everyday
is it goood for iphone . what abt the sound quality.
@@cineminiexpress3136 if u want punchy bass sound effect go for 1+.. For divine music experience go for oppo... I am not sure about iphone paring
Sir can you resale 3 pro air
Hey i very much enjoyed your video specially that part where you explain about sound.
My maximum budget is 3500
My top priority is sound
In past i owned(not any more😬) cca CRA, moondrop chu, tanzau Warner, and zero.
I enjoy this earphone very much but as time goes I stops using them because they are wired and rarely use them.
So I'm thinking or buying an tws for music and thinking of buying oppo enco air 2 pro.
A I making right choice or I should just buy an IEM under 2000. Whats you taught 😁
Or should I wait for new tws launch or sale or anything like this.
Hi Anirudh. If you've owned these IEMs in the past, no TWS set of earphones will sound anywhere as good. Especially on an overall clarity front. IEMs rule in that sense. These earphones are more for convenience than anything else. The Air2 Pro has always been the better performer in my comparison of earphones under 4k. It's a great set to own, especially if you've been listening to IEMs. Avoid Realme earphones, they're usually not as pristine in their imaging as the oppos.
I'd say, go ahead with the Air2 Pro, but again, don't expect it to be anywhere as sharp in detail as your IEMs.
@@PaulsPOV thanks 😁
Do you think that I should wait for sale or buy it now
That's entirely up to you! I don't like waiting so I don't wait for sales.
@@PaulsPOV I just ordered, it will arrive tomorrow 😁. Fingers crossed 🤞 let's see what happens
Can i use my air 2 pro case cover for my new air 3 pro?
You can try, but the Air3 Pro case does seem smaller, so I don't think it'll fit well.
I have air 2 pro.. air 2 pro charging case is missing... If buy air 3 pro.. air 3 pro charging case can charg an air 2 pro.. charg is ment point .... please sir reply.....
Air 2 Pro earphones will not fit in Air 3 Pro charging case.
Hey sir i need earphone for consuming music and movies from my laptop so i don't know ldac is good cause it drain battery fast too..... considering my needs should i go for air 2 or push my budget and go for air 3 (I am heavy user and clarity of vocal is most priority so i can enjoy movies ) is extra 1.5k more worth considering I'm gonna use them for years
You can always not engage the LDAC on the air3 pro, and its battery life will be good. The Air2 Pro is no slouch, just that it's not as detailed in its audio. It is superior when it comes to its call quality for your recipients, though. I'd say, go for the Air2 Pro. It's a better all-rounder, and I've had oppos last me well over 2yrs in the past. It's a long-term product in my experience.
Thanks sir for giving clear answer truly appreciated ❤️
Feedback: very few videos i am unable to go over 1.25x speed. Yours is one. Probably is the way you speak. (Don't mean the accent.*TK Bay* channel is what you remind me of.). Mature choice of words maybe adds to it. Wish it can be identified and improved. Hope it helps. TYVM for helpful videos
I was looking for the best TWS under 5k, my concern is call quality, I've seen your review video of TWS under 5k seems oppo Enco air2 pro has best call quality please suggest..
The Air2 Pro has always been ahead of any other earphones I've compared it to, and to my surprise, on a call front, it does perform better than the Air3 Pro, too. If call quality is your priority, the Air2 Pro is the one to go for. It very clearly performs better than the Air3 Pro here.
@@PaulsPOV thanks for quick response ....
Hi Paul, I am using oppo enco x2 from last 1.8 years. the problem is the battery has degraded. Dont want to spend 10k this time. I want to purchase budget tws. Already bought oneplus z2 in this sale. I don't like z2 because heavy bass sound. So I gave it to my brother. Now I want to buy tws under 5k-6k. Can you suggest one tws . Which one is better among oppo enco air 2 pro and oppo enco air 3 pro ? Or any other suggestions.. My priority is sound quality and call clarity..
Tricky place to be in because I've heard the X2 is something else compared to a lot of earphones in the market. Sadly, I haven't had the chance to test a set yet.
The Air3 Pro is richer in sound. Not great with calls. The Air2 Pro is superior with calls but not much of a slouch when it comes to its sound. It's warmer sounding. Not as detailed, but still enjoyable. Something tell me, neither will sound anywhere as good as your X2 though. Ever considered getting into the affordable IEM game?
does the mic of air 3 pro work well with apps such as whatsapp, teams and Google meet? Have u seen any redmi users complain about it in this regard..
Also I watched ur full review of air 3 pro.. i noticed that mic quality seemed terrible when anc is set to max... so which mode do u think would be the most optimal for calling..
Expect the mic to work as it did on the call demo. Usually most earphones work best with carrying your voice over when there is no load on the ENC. So having the ANC off usually is the best.
Sir under 2000 iem suggest karo please
Can you please elaborate on the battery life of the Air 3 Pro? The stats that the company provides are almost always exaggerated.
It depends on what volume you listen to them with. I get longer battery life usually because I consume audio at 30-40%.
in your test the enco air2 is better then the air3. the camera micrphone was the best still with the background noise i could hear you the clearest
Are oppo encho air2 pro still worth it or i should wait for them to launch new tws?
The Air2 Pro is still one of my favorites! It's well worth the money. The Air3 Pro is a great evolution over the Air2 Pro, but the returns you get from it are diminishing.
which would u choose 7Hz Salnotes Zero or oppo enco air 2 pro or kz zsn pro?
My priority has always been sound, so the TWS is out. Between the IEMs, the KZ ZSN ProX was the most fun I've had with any IEMs in the price range, so that would be my go to.
@@PaulsPOV which is the best KZ iem would you recommend?
Of the few I've tested, the ZSN ProX. Have a look at my review of it if you'd like to.
I have high frequency hearing loss. So which headphone do you suggest me.can you please tell golden sound help me😢
Yes, the golden sound should compensate for the frequencies you have a lower sensitivity with. It'll boost those frequencies for you. You'll have to do the listening test in a quiet environment, so take your time with it. It's best not to rush the process. Don't expect it to make you feel like your hearing has been restored. It just boosts those specific ranges, so its tuning will change a bit compared to how it sounds right out of the box.
@@PaulsPOVWill the transperency mode also help?
That only lets in audio from your surroundings so you can be more aware of what's happening around you.
@@PaulsPOVrealme buds 5 pro or oppo enco air 3 pro which one recommended to me? Also which one have better transperency mode?
Pls reply
@@PaulsPOValso what about samsung buds 2 pro?
hey I have an update realme just sent me an super cool tws which are going to release and they better then oppo enco air 3 pro
Brother your call tests are awesome. Helped me a lot. Never stop doing these tests no matter what. 🤌🏻
Waiting for realme buds air 5 pro
Hey Paul
If you have to rate them out of 10 what will be your rating
I am actually confused between these two do that surround sound and golden audio is gimmick?
Please give good suggestion
I avoid using the rating system for many reasons, but the Alive Audio works well. I prefer it to what some earphones do with Atmos. Oppo has done a good job with it, and I wouldn't say it's a gimmick. The golden sound is just a hearing test that boosts frequencies in your music, which you may have lost. It works, but I didn't like how it sounded. The Air3 Pro is a nice buy and a good evolution over the Air2 Pro if sound is your priority.
@@PaulsPOV and if we compare the 3 pro with 2 pro as an overall package how big improvement they are
I mainly use them for music streaming (apple music) and for ott movies and a bit calls
Which would be a better choice
Also as you've mentioned regarding ear discomfort I don't know my exact size so please help regarding that so can I check it because it will also play a crucial role
If you have the budget for the Air3 Pro, it makes sense to go for it. It's marginally better than the Air2 Pro on a sound front. It had a lot more features, too. Comfort wise, I haven't had an issue with the Air3 Pro. The Air2 Pro has caused discomfort, which leads to pain.
There's no real way of measuring your ear/concha by yourself. If you've used larger earphones and have experienced discomfort, the Air2 Pro will be uncomfortable to use. The Air3 Pro is a bit smaller than it's predecessor but again, if you have small ears, there is a possibility of it causing discomfort.
@@PaulsPOV till now I've had realme buds 2 the wired one that made discomfort only when they got pressed by pillow
Yeah and samsung cheap in box earbuds cause too much discomfort
Waiting for chu 2 review from u
I'll try and get my hands on it soon
Would they work seamless on ios
They've worked fine with me on iOS & iPad OS via the HeyMelody app. No issues.
Does support ldac in Samsung phones oppo enco air 3 pro
Yes
opoo encho aiir 3 pro support redmi k 20 pro from Dolby atmos
Bro i am confused between 2 pro and 3 pro which is better ?
Did you buy any?
I can see myself agreeing to your review with respect to air 3 pro, using it since last 3 days.
How much time does it take to full charge the buds from case??
@@quickclipsbysnoopy 1-1:30 hour roughly

Paul, I tried Oppo enco Air 3 Pro from a friend of mine, and I loved it. (except the glossy finish and the lack of darker colour options) I m looking forward to purchase one for myself. But, I am torn between Oppo Enco Air 3 Pro and JBL Tune Beam.
Purpose: Watching movies, making phone calls; rather balanced bass is my preference (that's why I can't go with Boat). I do tend to wear earphones longer, as I do some academic works, to cut off distractions (I am using Tribit Quietplus 72 headphones now).JBL live Pro 2 was one of my other preference. However, the price is way beyong my budget. Which one would you suggest? if not these other options to explore.
NB: I have a moderate hearing loss. Hence, I do care about my ears. Having seen most of your consumer earphones reveiws, I felt, you seemed to understand hearing and sensitivity, than just review products. That's why I thought of asking you. Thank you
If you've managed to get your hands on the Air3 Pro and liked it, that's all the matters, really. You should trust your ears more than mine! The fact that you're looking forward to owning it means it's connected with you to a certain extent, and that to me is the ultimate audio nirvana.
Coming back to the other earphones, the JBL Tune Beam is good fun to listen to and has terrific battery life. It doesn't have Hi-Res audio but maintains good detail for what it's worth. It can be a little more exaggerated in the bass, but the oppo is a little more natural sounding here, but I'd have to do some A-B testing to know for sure.
Coming to your hearing, the oppo might be able to benefit you with the "Golden Sound" feature. It'll ask you to follow some commands in a quiet space to do its own hearing test and will boost the signals you've lost. It should benefit you when it comes to your listening experience. Hearing sensitivity wise, if you are listening to earphones above 60-80% casually, your sensitivity is most likely shot, but I'd still recommend listening to any earphones below 50% to avoid any further damage/loss. Sadly, there's no way to reverse this like you can with eye glasses.
Anyway, I'd say go for the Air3 Pro because the golden sound will help + you've enjoyed them!
I hope this helps you, Edwin.
@@PaulsPOV Thank you, Paul. Sounds very personal and honest, while remaining professional. That is how I would describe you.
Air 3 pro it is. Wish it came in some dark colours🥲.
Blessings and love.
Yea, I also wish there were more options for colours. Enjoy your new earphones 😊
Is there no option to turn off the in ear detection to pause the media?
I haven't found one on the HeyMelody app, but I've heard that you can toggle this setting on Oppo or OnePlus phones via the Bluetooth setting in the phone.
@PaulsPOV Thank you.
But if it the in ear detectection is ON will it be able to play using only one ear bud? ( will the media be paused if I don't wear the other one?)
Yes. Mono listening works and pauses your audio when you take out the single bud.
@PaulsPOV So I can use one earbud and play right Sir?
Yes
Can I use my 27 watt charger for charging oppo enco air 3 pro,I just got it today
I'm sure you can, but I wouldn't recommend it for long-term use. Slow charging will give you lesser battery wear.
@@PaulsPOV lesser battery wear means?
Constantly fast charging a battery usually leads to it giving it a shorter life span. All my oppo earphones have lasted me a little over 2yrs before facing battery degradation. Fast charging it means it'll start showing signs of degradation within 6-8months. Slow charging is always better to do in the long run.
@@PaulsPOV got it ,thx❣️
For zoom calls which one is better?
Head on over to the call quality chapter and see which ones sound you'd prefer carrying your voice over to your recipients.
@@PaulsPOV I have done that , what's your opinion need to know because you are an user
I feel the Air2 Pro is a better performer when it comes to calls.
Anc in air 3 pro is amazing....even I have used realme buds air 3 pro
@@PaulsPOV thank you so much for clarifying
It's not the mic it's wear detection sensor on air 2 pro
Hi Paul. There IS a second cutout close to the eartip section. It is clearly visible when you lift or take off the silicone eartips.
Edit: Then, of course, the L and R letterings are also cut-out. Hmmm.
The Air2 Pro also has it, but the Air2 Pro does have two mics on the outer part of the stem, specifically for picking out noise, which they also mention on their website. So this is quite a mystery. I really don't know why they haven't been transparent about how many mics the Air3 Pro has. Very odd.
Odd, indeed. Thanks for sharing!
