@@healththenopulence5106 what about the fit? Is the fit way better too? 😅 I have been using 3 for a long time now despite the pain. They hurt my ears a lot and sometimes fall out when smiling or talking. I’m afraid 4 will hurt too! So I can’t seem to decide between the 2nd and 4th 🤯
@ fits with less pain when pressing against the ear, i can say for that, connects between devices instantly. best version of non-earplug airpods by far
Serious question: on Amazon Apple AirPods Pro 2 cost $189.99 and Apple AirPods 4gen W/Noise canceling cost $169.00 at these price points which one to get?
I bring my Airpods4 ANC and Pro2 when travelling, the 4 are way more comfortable for long period and it's just effortless and magical how they just sit there and disappear when in use. The Pro 2 have better ANC and better sound, but they are more fatiguing, they start to slide out during intense periods of exercise or jogging as your ears sweat and in general they are less enjoyable to use. I would say I use my 4 ANC 80% of the time but the Pro2 are invaluable in those noisier environments.
Interesting! All ears are different, so it's hard to really encapsulate everyone's experiences. All I can give is my own, but thanks for sharing yours!
Are we talking about the bootlegged kind? Or do they actually make 4s without it? Cause I found some for 30 picked them up and while they say they have anc, I don’t think they actually do, and while the quality is very good and they look the part, I only use them for Mobil gaming. Still prefer gen 1 and 2 pods
i bought the ANC version. and sold it within 24 hours. ANC didn't suit me, it caused me ear discomfort (felt like i needed to pop my ear) and bit headache. also, the sound volume felt lower than my airpods 3. i tested both at 50% and 4 always felt a bit less sound. maybe mine was defective, but i am sticking to my 3rd gen
@ still on AirPods 3. Not upgrading unfortunately. Maybe when i get to visit Apple Store, i will directly use AirPods 4 regular version and see if it’s better or not for me
i compared the airpods 4 vs gen 2 on phone calls and the people on the other end couldn't hear me sneeze, type on my keypboard, click my mouse, wash the dishes, and watch tv. yet they heard my voice significantly better. apple made magic with this model.
Way different types. In ear vs out ear. Also, they both benefit from their respective ecosystems. It's way more nuanced and context/preference dependent.
Sticking with my airpod pro with the custom settings they sound amazing and the noice cancellation is the best. People cannot even hear when i have the truck windows open driving down the xway. Sound is even better than my max’s that i now never use.
Which is a better design considering ears health and hearing capabilities over a longer term? 1) silicon tip like AirPods Pro 2 2) open deign like AirPods 4 with ANC
Like you said, i hate the little rubber things in my ear canal, feels super weird. I converted from the original airpods (they were old, battery drained weirdly etc) to the Sony WH-1000XM4. So the fact apple finally made these ANC airpods, i might buy them for convenience purposes when i dont want the weight/tightness of the headphones.
After using these and as someone who doesn’t like silicone in my ears, I’ll continue to use my over ear cans for ANC. However, the sound quality on these is surprisingly good.
I like the idea that you have the option of 2 versions with Noise cancellation and without Personally I would go for without as I had the pros gen 2 and the left ear with noise cancellation there was issues with it and I can see that happing with the gen 4 version
@ you know that’s truly valid ! I’m just getting into earbud headphone trials ! I’ve used production headphones for years but find doing this at work to be fun !
Oh, nice! Did you see the new Sony MDR-M1? It’s a refresh of their classic headphones. Really light! I had a chance to check them out briefly last month. I want to give them a deeper look.
Hey! Which one should I buy: the new AirPods Max (Type C), Bose QuietComfort Ultra, or Sony XM5 headphones? I’m not worried about the price; I just want something that sounds great. I listen to a lot of hip-hop, R&B, rock, jazz, and other genres. I also want something comfortable enough to wear for long periods, like when I’m traveling or relaxing. I use Apple devices (iPhone and iPad), so compatibility is a plus. What would you recommend?
I need help with one thing that I haven’t found being mentioned in any AirPods 4 video so far. I work in a warehouse and there’s often loud bangs and other random loud sounds and every single time that there’s a significantly loud sound in my general area the sound in my AirPods lowers on its own and doesn’t go back to normal for a minute or sometimes even 4-5 minutes. Idk if there’s a setting to change for that but I need help with that because it’s getting mildly annoying now😭
Yeah, it's trying to not blow out your ears by utilizing what is called a "limiter" in the audio world. as for why it takes so long, it may recognize a lot of loud noise around that loud bang and is being cautious about lowering the volume OR it's confusing conversation aware mode. Does sound persist around the loud noises and have you tried turning off conversation aware mode?
@ Yes I’ve tried turning off the conversational awareness mode, I even tried messing with other settings that I just assumed would maybe help but nothing worked. I haven’t really seen or heard anyone ask about this either so I’m extra confused because I can’t seem to find any answers on this
hi, great video as always! Just a question, I’m considering either this or the new sony linkbud fit, are you going to make a review about that pair of earbuds? thankyou!
Does it have active individual noise cancelling? I'm sure it wouldn't be much of a challenge for a reasonable AI to identify and correlate noise to an individual and actively cancel all that noise out.
Honestly I think the AirPods 3 are good and has better battery life so I’m happy with them and plus I have AirPods pro 1 but still not a bad pair of ears buds and great video 😊❤
Hey man 15 year old here wanting to become an audio engineer I have no clue where to start ik its allot to ask but could you like give me a start something I should learn or anything im clueless about where to start
Great video! Could you please address the question about headphone firmware updates? Specifically, the Sony WH-1000XM4 version 2.6.0 update seems a bit suspicious, especially with the XM6 expected to be released soon. People are reporting weaker ANC and changes in sound profile. Could you test this and make a video about it? Thank you so much!
Damn, I was looking forward to an in dept review of the AirPods 4 ANC earlier this week so that I could decide between the AirPods Pro 2 and the AirPods 4. 😅 but I ended up buying the AirPods 2 pro yesterday from Best Buy due to their $70 discount ($179). Anyways, I’m glad that I bought it because they are the absolute best.
Hi Guys, we got a lot of Headphones already at sale here in Europe. We got the Sony WH-1000 XM5 for 260€, Bose QC Ultra 260€ and the Sony XM-4 for 189€. I am looking for Headphones to listen to music, maybe work out and talk, when I work at home. I tried them all and can't rly decide which one to get. For me the Bose are most comfortable and got the best ANC. The Sony are getting a bit uncomfortable because of the thin ear pads. But the Sony XM-5 got the better Microphone. At home I would wear them several hours (maybe about 5h a day). Which one would you get?
Can’t decide what to buy AirPods4 or MX5.. Hot noisy environment at home - WFH with toddler in Spain. Tried to wear MX3 - it doesn’t block voices/screams good. Don’t have MX5 to try. Currently use AirPods3 - all great, except shape (too big), AirPods2 fit better.

I have the 3 for a long time now even though they hurt my ears a lot 🤦🏻♀️ I’m afraid the 4th will hurt too can’t seem to decide if I just go for the 2nd as they are way smaller or the 4th Don’t see a lot of opinions about the fit of the 4th so makes it harder to decide 🫠🫠

After 3 weeks, the left one broke. Apple replaced it (only the left). Then after another month, the right one broke. I gave up and went back to my old earbuds. These are basically trash.
Cap 🧢 I have the pros 2 & these sound just as good way better Anc then what I was expecting mic quality is Studio level that alone was worth the upgrade over the pros 2
very cheap actually, just work for a day and I can get 1.5 of these. If you can't afford it then thinks it is overprice you should work harder and improve your economic status.Or else, these are one of the best open ear products out there, considering its functions....if this is trash, then buds 3 will be trash^2 since its noise cancellation is close to none
Only MacBook and iphone are useful everything else Apple have is overpriced garbage. These airpods have no match for wired earphones. And Apple removed the 3.5 mm jack To pud this garbage. Making fool of there customers. Removing features from phones Apple products are overpriced garbage
okay, these are not trash, guys. And of course wired will sound better at a lower price, but these aren't wired. They're wireless. Completely different product categories.

Between these or the buds 3 pro,which one is better?
Semi-open earbuds vs in-ears and 2 different ecosystems, Apple and Samsung. It depends on your use case and on which ecosystem you’ll be using.
