Examining the Apple AirPods Pro in-depth: Are They Worth It?

I found myself looking for the best wireless earphones because I’m a big music fan and travel a lot for business. In terms of convenience, I didn’t want to make many sacrifices to the audio quality. So, I couldn’t help but be dubious when I first saw the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd generation) and their high $250+ price tag.

My initial thoughts and unboxing

My Apple Airpods Pro were packaged in a compact, solid box along with numerous pairs of silicone earphone tips in various sizes, the charging case, and a charging cord.

When I first opened the package, I was struck by how streamlined and simple everything looked. The charging case’s matte texture provided a touch of refinement, while the earbuds themselves felt really high-end and light. The fact that they provided multiple pairs of silicone tips let me choose the one that matched my ears the most comfortably.

Symphony in My Ears was used first.

These wireless earbuds were simple to set up and effortlessly synced with my Apple device, as to be anticipated from Apple. I then put the Airpods Pro in my ears and started listening to my favorite music.

I find it a little challenging to explain what followed, and I won’t go too technical now. But the hubbub in my surroundings was soon drowned out by a deep, bright music that enveloped me. It gave me the impression that I had my own personal listening room where I could hear every note, rhythm, and lyric with superb quality and depth.

It’s not great, to be sure, and I discovered that the bass still falls short when compared to my studio monitors. But comparing these earphones to them wouldn’t be accurate, would it?

I started taking my Apple AirPods with me on trips, and before long, we were attached. I learned about its adaptive EQ during my first cross-country journey, which automatically changed the earbuds’ audio output to account for outside disturbances on the aircraft.

I watched my favorite TV shows on the Airpods Pro while not anticipating a cinematic audio experience. So much so that there have been instances when I’ve forgotten I’m in the middle of a crowded flight.

Features of an active lifestyle

I don’t consider myself to be physically active, although I do like to go trekking or running on occasion. The Apple Airpods Prod, thankfully, did not let users down in terms of toughness and water resistance.

I could concentrate on my outdoor activities without having to worry about water damage because these airPods have an IPX4 rating to endure sweat and rain. Don’t even consider using them in the bathtub or the shower since that doesn’t imply you can submerge them in water.

Uninterrupted Entertainment: I obviously have to address battery life with this hub, which is actually fairly excellent. The Apple Airpods Pro have a battery life of 4.5 hours on a single charge, but I’ve found that I can get an additional 24 hours out of them by using the charging case that comes with them. That will more than keep me occupied on a protracted journey.

Regarding charging periods, I’ve found that it takes the earphones and case, respectively, around an hour and two hours to charge completely. I can quickly charge the earphones for 5 minutes, which will provide me with an additional hour of listening time.

A few negatives

Although I have had a generally favorable experience with the Apple Airpods Pro, I tried to be as impartial as I could be in my assessment by pointing out its drawbacks:

The Airpods Pro have a premium price tag and are perhaps the most costly wireless earphones on the market as far as Apple goods go.
most non-Apple devices are incompatible with this.
a bass response that is less intense. Fans of certain musical genres, such as EDM, Hip-Hop, Rock and Metal, etc., which have deep resonating beats, may find this to be a problem.
I would advise balancing these disadvantages to see if they aren’t as significant for your unique requirements and tastes if you’re interested in buying the Apple Airpods Pro.

That said, this does not imply that everyone should use these wireless earphones. Some people won’t be pleased with the subpar bass response, as I have highlighted in this review. The Apple Airpods Pro will make you happy if that doesn’t concern you in the least.
