AirPods Pros were some of the most popular wireless earbuds available on the market for their ease of use, strong ANC, and decent sound quality, but now Apple has released their next generation that's apparently better in almost every way. Does Linus agree with these claims, or is Apple falling behind the competition?

Linus short-circuiting on ShortCircuit is just gold 😂

@Jdudhhsuxbsksj Год назад

While serving his Hot Takes!

@pichuofdeath7964 Год назад

The reasons for his short-circuiting is the reason I ultimately left the apple ecosystem for android. As soon as you are not 100% apple you are now second class and it's just f***ed. Had to sell an apple watch 2 bc it doesn't work with anything else. I didn't like itunes library and preferred things like bandcamp and google music (rip) and ran them through an mp3 player app. (Apple deleted all non-itunes stuff back in iphone 5 times) I like his raging, it makes me laugh but with a twinge of PTSD.

In Linus's defense, Apple has always put form before function...

The menu's are just so illogical, as if they where designed by a 7 year old buffoon!

I’ve been very anti Bluetooth headphones for a while now but the latest gen of AirPods Pro headphones have tipped me over. I have to confirm that the sound quality is excellent. They are the best wireless headphones on the market. They’re great for all genres and uses. The sound signature is spacious and analytical, nothing feels overpowering and for a single dynamic driver they do not disappoint. It’s only been two days of use now and I already forget that I’m wearing them and can get a solid 5+ hours before they need to go in their charging case. They are definetly a step up from the first gen. I found the initial pros very mundane and tight sounding to listen to. Good job Apple, you finally converted me over ffs

@lilladokka 8 месяцев назад

These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. ru-vid.comUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_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.

@NineDiamont Месяц назад

Apple is literally advertising how their noise cancellation got 2x better with the 2nd gen. I compared them and it's a night and day difference to the 1st gen, so I don't know what you are on.. Also transperancy mode improved and sounds more natural for me.

My Truthear Zero with the smallest tips have been the only in ear to ever just lock into my ears and I've been obsessed with trying to find that fitment lol. It's definitely worth giving budget IEMs with a few styles of eartips a try if you think you're one of those people stuck with the old wired Apple Earpods forever.

Just swipe down anywhere on the screen (usually on album art) and it will dismiss the modal now playing view. - iOS does not need a back button because you can just swipe to go back, it works in every app (or at least, it *should* according to Apple human interface guidelines) and if you just want to exit the app or switch between them you hold the home bar and swipe up.

Every single app on iOS seems to have their own idea of "going back". It's a complete mess. Some you can swipe back. Others you need to click the top left button. Others you need to slide down something. Others you need to slide up. Others have a back button somewhere else. Others it's a button you have to click like "Ok" or "Cancel" or whatever to close that. This happens between Apple own apps too. And inside the same app. Apple Music is such a great example. You can swipe back on some places, have to click the top left button in other situations and finally the one demonstrated in the video, you have to swipe down. Inside the same damn app you have 3 or 4 different ways to go back depending on where you are, and you have to know which one to use. iOS might very well be the most confusing and inconsistent UI ever in terms of navigation inside the UI.

I’m not sure why nobody has said this, but there are settings for customizing transparency mode… They’re actually very impressive, way more in depth than my XM-5s. Not only that but there are settings for phone calls and media playback, and to top it all off you can play various white noises, stream, ocean, and rain sounds which can be controlled by triple clicking the lock button if you enable accessibility shortcuts. To access these settings click on your AirPods in the settings “app”, then scroll down to accessibility, and then click on audio accessibility settings. From there you can set up the background sounds such as the ocean, or click on Headphone Accommodations. With Headphone Accommodations on you can scroll to the bottom and click transparency mode in order to fully customize it. Or click custom audio setup to change settings for phone calls and media playback. I would say these features are needlessly hard to find, but I found them within 5 minutes of opening my AirPods and I do not make millions of dollars off of a tech review RU-vid channel….

The "under Apple ID" access to AirPods settings is only on iOS 16 and the "back gesture" is only invoked from the left side of the screen.

@talonhackbarth7652 Год назад

Really? You can only swipe back from the left? That makes no sense. Giving that most people are right handed your thumb is already on the right, so swiping from the right is better. I use swipe controls on my pixel and allways swipe from the right

@DennisLofgren Год назад

@@talonhackbarth7652 It makes perfect sense if you look at it in action. On Android, the swipe is essentially a button press. You swipe and the back action happens. On iOS you are physically moving the current screen away to reveal the previous one behind it. Animation and the flow of iOS makes it into very natural motion. Its hard to explain in text but if you felt it in person you would understand.

@TT_PLEB Год назад

@@DennisLofgren that isn't an excuse for not having it available from both. just update the stupid animation to wipe the screen the other way and reveal the previous screen behind that. we swipe from right to left to say no in almost all apps that use that, so why not do it for back as well.

@texrolyat Год назад

No it’s horrible That you have to reach all the way across as someone with a hand Injury it’s painful to do and apple is so paranoid about you using back any other way that all the accessibility option’s intentionally leave out going back as an option. Imagine if you could just double tap the back of the phone with back touch. So easy but nope. Idiotic.

@francisdayon Год назад

I just switched to an Iphone from my Galaxy Fold 2 and I was so shocked about the back button. On some pages or apps, it's available but on most, it's not. So you just have to play around with swiping if it'll work or not. The most annoying thing is for going back to a page you need to reach all the way to the upper left part of the screen which you sometimes don't hit properly and takes you to the top of the page. It doesn't feel simple at all! It's a great phone. Works very well but I'm just going back to the ecosystem and realized how freakin expensive everything is. Now I need this Airpods that costs twice as much as the alternatives. Heck, I even got my earbuds pro free when I bought my Fold! Laptop costs twice as much as a Windows alternative for less specs, Ipad costs like another phone, all these subscriptions... I don't know... I guess Andriod was getting stale for me even with the Fold purchase so I went back to Apple but this sounds like a big expense. I'd rather buy a new bike!

As someone who has just switched from using android to iphone for the first time in 10 years the whole ios is incredibly unfriendly to navigate when some apps use swiping to go back and others rely on a small back button on the top left hand side of the interface. I totally agree with the rage about the back button not being there. I found it so easy to use. The main issue is there is not uniformity across all apps so the gesture swiping left is not reserved for back, some apps support it and others don't. So you have to figure out which swipe or back button to press just to simply go back. I wish apple would sort this out!

@doubleyoujaytee3017 Год назад

anyone wondering if the AP2s are worth the upgrade, they most definitely are, i’ve been through almost all airpod models, this is by far the best yet, it is not a Airpod Pro slapped with a 2 on it. Transparency mode is fantastic, if you get the perfect fit with the tips you can forget they’re even in. Noise Cancelling is a great upgrade too, I fly quite a lot and in my personal opinion i’d say they’re either alittle ahead of the Sony XM4 or just under, and that’s cause with the XM4 there’s not really great fitting, leaks comes through the pads whereas the Airpod Pro 2s have a great seal and do better at giving you an isolated feel. The swipe actions are more fluid than I though for volume, I worried at first you’d have to really swipe along the whole stem but even a small swipe up or down does great and there’s a little “ding” when it works. The case sound upgrade is a lifesaver, it plays a loud sound to help you find it, very loud for the size of the speakers and there’s also a ding played when connected to a charger. Battery life as always is great, i bought mine two days ago and haven’t needed to charge them yet. I’d say upgrade if you have the money, if not wait for prices to drop alittle if you aren’t wanting to pay brand new, if you find some used ones I definitely recommend buying if they’re at a cheaper price

In transparency mode I was locking my electric motorbike and when it's locked the alarm goes off once like "beep". I was so used to the sound of the beep that because it was much less volume I thought it was broken. Then I was testing with other alarms on the bike until I saw weird unpleasant faces around me. I took off my airpods only to realize that I've been blasting the alarm sound to everyone around me but I was the only one that couldn't hear it. I was in transparency mode.

Quality of the buds all around is great, my only complaint is the case opens and closes too easily which makes it seem cheap/fragile but otherwise I prefer the Sony linkbuds over Samsungs, Apples, beats, and Bose's buds (especially for half the price of it's competitors).

For my fellow "anything but Apple" people... My previous daily driver Sony WF100XM4s have been dethroned by the Samsung Wireless Buds Pro 2. They beat the Sony in every respect (size, comfort, sound quality) except for the ANC. However, I find that unlike the Sony, the Samsung doesn't have any undesirable side effects to the ANC (like picking up wind noise or thumping in my ears as I walk) so I just leave ANC on at all times. With the Sony, I find myself switching modes frequently. Nice that the touch controls can be switched off on the Samsung, too, which is great if you want to wear them under a helmet without them doing things when you take the helmet on or off. And the case is TINY.
