1. Work not with iOS
So you unpacked your headphones, opened the case, took them out, stuck them in your ears, the noise reduction immediately shows what it is capable of, turn on your favorite track for the test and . And they are quieter than your friend trying to tell you the correct answer when you are standing at the blackboard . The problem that android owners face very often (solved by turning off the maximum volume through the developer menu)
Or out of sync between the headphones. Yes, all this can be solved, but isn't that what you expected from headphones for 21k?
+ In addition, you can only choose between active noise reduction and transparency mode
2. Sound
No matter how their reviewers praised, the sound, to put it mildly, is average
Imagine recording a track: you are standing in the middle of a spacious room, drums are beating behind you, a guitarist is standing on the side playing his part, a vocalist is singing to you directly. This is the scene, to put it grossly, all the instruments have their position and do not sound in a bunch in one position, there is volume in the tracks.
And now we forget all this, we reduce the spacious room to a closet for cleaning equipment, stuff everyone into this room with our foot and close it. The airpods pro has such a scene. All the sound is collected at one point, you don’t feel the sound volume. The bass is not deep enough (whoever says anything, but in modern music the depth of the bass is important and very even), if it feels like listening to the tracks on the 2nd generation airpods, the bass was deeper there
3. Glossy body
Nevertheless, it looks insanely beautiful and futuristic, the materials are pleasant, but! Half a year is enough and all the gloss will become matte from scratches, because. it literally scratches from the air (yes, no one lied here, the headphones are less than a month old, there are already scratches on the case and no, I don’t wear them next to nails / keys, etc.
4. Noise canceling still eats the sound and makes the sound flatter, but I should note that it does it quite a bit (in principle, noise canceling eats up a little sound everywhere), so this minus can be attributed to all noise canceling headphones
