- Value for money. The sound here is not bad, but, of course, it doesn’t pull on either $250 (the price at the start of sales), or even $200 (to which the price dropped before the release of Airpods Pro). Although I was lucky to buy them in the USA already at a discount, but to be honest: there are a lot of headphones for the same money that sound much more interesting. If I took my ears not for sports, but for the sake of sound, I would choose Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless. Well, about the fact that for $ 200-250 you can take excellent studio hi-fi headphones, it’s better not to even remember, so as not to get upset. No, understand correctly: the sound here is quite normal, but you can get a similar sound over the wire within $ 100. You need to understand that here you pay mainly for the form factor, functionality, and, most importantly, for marketing, because Beats is Apple, with all the consequences. With Android, the ears could certainly sound better, but . in Cupertino they only hoe their own garden - there is no Apt-X! :(
- Unfortunately, despite the fact that the headphones hold perfectly on the auricle, the ear cushions do not sit well in the ear canal, read - the bass and sound isolation disappear (By the way, many reviews say that, unlike Airpods, these Beats perfectly cut off external noise - Nonsense, do not believe it. From the strength of 10% they muffle, but the surrounding world is still audible, which I personally do not like). So for vacuum lovers, foam ear pads are a must-have;
- When running in the cold in a hat (which, by the way, presses the headphones into your ear and returns the bass :), another minus was revealed: it is inconvenient that the volume rocker is located on top, because you have to crawl far under the hat with your index finger, and the ear freezes) It would be much better if the rocker was at the bottom and you could press it with your thumb without protruding the hat. But the round button presses perfectly even with gloves and through a hat;
- It pisses me off that sometimes the ears can spontaneously fall off from bt, the phone sees them, but for some reason the music does not play. If you don’t have a case with you, then you have to walk all day without music. Not to say that this happened often, but a couple of times it happened.
