Thank you for the longer term review. It’s nice to see over just one week, one month, or 48 hour reviews.

For us old guys, pros make pretty darn good hearing aids too.

[marymadigan]

Nice I’ve the 2 of them I keep going back the Air pods 3 because they are lighter, but the pros sounds better as you said thanks 👍

[Goosey]

I have both and the pro 2 takes the cake for me. The ANC is a game changer

[Bachatoro]

2 minutes in, your review is super helpful! Thanks a bunch and for providing so much useful detail on your experience.

I love both them. Usually I use the airpods 3 for calls, ma also I like the sound of AP3, for me better then Airpods Pro 1, but not better then Airpods Pro 2. I use AP Pro 2 for listen music and to exclude the world outside when I travel in train. The AP Pro 2 work fantastic, in particular with audiogram, performed by the app Mimi.

I use gen 3 and I would say it's good even it doesn't have a silicon tip Im still able to hear good bass and good sound quality but I might choose pro cuz of the ANC and Transparency

[geneparadiso]

I have the 3 and one of my ear canals doesn’t hold on to the pod very securely. My next set will be with the tips.

Can't wait for Apple to release the AirPods 4 with USB-C Charging.

[Janknitz]

I don’t like ear tips, they always hurt my ears. And I have no need for noise cancelling.

Plus, I wear one Air pod all day because my iPhone is my business phone.

I’m not a big music aficionado, but I am satisfied with the sound on the AirPods 3 when watching a movie.

People can’t tell I’m using AirPods. The sound quality is perfect for my use case.

Had pro twos I don’t like the silicon, just ordered the third generation

[mikelaplante]

I really tried to live with the Pro 2s but they hurt my ears so much, even with the smallest silicone tips, that i gave up and exchanged them for the 3rd gen pair I now have. There is a very small sacrifice to the bass end, but they are hugely more comfortable and honestly, the sound is excellent. I also just discovered that the EQ setting of 'flat' sounds substantially better and more balanced than the stock configuration of EQ off, and the dynamics and balance are extremely satisfying. I did appreciate the ANC of the Pros, but it wasn't total noise elimination by any means so I don't miss it at all. Just delighted overall with my 3rd gen Airpods.

What about phone calls, zooms in the car at the cafe, haha😂

[sarthaksaraswat]

Nice review, but I was hoping you'd compare the mic and call quality as well. For me that's as important as listening to music.

[Digikidthevoiceofreason]

Pros are far better in every way. The silicone inserts are a must for not falling out, the sound quality is better, the noise cancelation is better ( to ignore the people at work that just won’t STFU ) and the better case design.

[carolowens]

I have several reasons for wanting the Pros but my ears are allergic to the tips. (Ear Dr confirmed some other patients are as well. We end up with bad infections from relatively short wearing time but do fine w/ the AirPod 3.)

[maxcava]

Well hope they make anc for Airpod 4. Still love the non plastic feeling with airpod 3 compared to the pro but the with ANC on pro, the choice is nice comfort feel with airpod3 with no ANC or the plastic rubber in your ear with ANC with the pros

[GabeWaldeck]

About the AirPods Pro second generation. I’m also annoyed by the chirping when charging, low battery, connecting and stuff like that, but I’ve disabled it in the settings and now it only makes the sound when I asked for it in the find my app since I misplaced them quite often.

[nboston]

For me the original airpods are even more comfortable. AirPods 3 are a middle ground between sound quality + features vs. comfort for me.

[barrypsax]

I’m a musician and bought both the AirPods 3 and Pro 2 last year and A/B’d them for a week. To me the 3s sounded much better. It would be great if they were noise cancelling, but the high frequencies specifically sound much better to me on the 3s.
