Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The big question, are these worth the upgrade? I've tested for hours and hours... Upgrade from AirPods Pro 1st Gen Yes, if you want a substantial improvement in audio quality and drastic improvement in noise cancellation. (Fitment, audio quality, and noise cancellation further improved with some foam tips I got from Foam Masters. Tested other brands of tips, Foam Masters was the best across the board. Also eliminated the thud noise from each pace when running because the AirPods bounce slightly with the stock silicone tips). No, if you simply don’t need the latest and greatest. The 1st and 2nd Gen AirPods Pros are identical in dimensions, but they now have a XS sized ear tip. Upgrade from AirPods 1, 2, or 3 I’ve tested the sound quality and this one blows them all out of the water in all audio quality, especially bass response. The active noise cancellation works terrifically. One note though, your ears may not be used to the in-ear tips. I almost returned my pros because of this. Memory foam tips helped solve this problem. Upgrade from AirPods Max The Max’s audio drivers are MUCH larger and delivers unmatched sound quality. Audio Testing Showed a very balanced sound profile with very nice bass response and clarity. Less muddiness when listening to music compared to the 1st gen. It's incredible how Apple was able to deliver this type of sound out of such a small device. I've tested earbuds like the Samsung Galaxy buds pro 1 and 2 and Beats Fit Pro, these ones are much smaller and fit in your ear much quicker. Noise Cancellation Is so much better than before, almost 2x the difference in noise suppression across all frequencies. I’ve tested in multiple scenarios of controlled high traffic environments. They're on the level of the AirPods Max, if not better! Transparency Mode Transparency mode on the AirPods Pro 2 are by far the best by far compared to all other major brands I've tested. Everything sounds realistic and you're able to hear things clearly with distance, perspective, and spatial awareness. The other brands I've tested perform slightly worse in all 3 categories. (Beats Fit Pro, Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro 1 & 2, and Sony). Here's how memory foam tips enhanced my experience: I was SO close to returning my AirPods Pro for the 3rd time before finding a solution. Guys, try true memory foam ear tips for any fitment issues (bonus: slightly improved sound quality and noise cancellation). These may not be for everyone, but boy did these foam tips make me love my AirPods Pro so much more. In my first ownership of the AirPods Pro 1st Gen, I suffered from ear fatigue/pain and fitment issues. I purchased the top 3 brands and tested them for months. Ultimately settled with Foam Masters for their unbeatable and comfortable fitment in my ears and unparalleled support in warranty and fitment guarantee. Huge plus is when I run, i get less bouncing noise that I'd get from the Apple silicone tips. I highly recommend exploring this territory if you’re all about upgrades and seeking to bring out the most in your electronics and equipment.
