powerbeats

bro, what's going on? I'm Andrew here from Apple Insider, you're in the studio today to talk about revisiting Air Rehash. The Potts Pro versus

powerbeats

Pro argument, it's been two.

months

since the Pro earpods were released, so we wanted to revisit our original comparison that we posted and go back and repeat that and see

later

, I actually used these guys for two months, had them in our hands in our years for so long and It's like really seeing where the pros and cons of each of them are and which one would we really recommend for the average user, so that's what we're going to do, let's go ahead and dive into it, so between the two we go.

To start, look at the pros, the biggest benefit of the powerbeats Pro beats in general and the power beats Pro that are marketed to many gym users, sports of all kinds, which was a clear differentiator between the original

airpods

. and power beats pro, but then air pops Pro came along and ruined that line, it started to invade each other spaces that were converging in those markets, so what still stands out with power beats Pro are two main things, first, is the adjustment of these. Obviously they're going to be an athletic, sporty property instead, the earbuds snap on and then wrap around your ear rather than just sitting there and hanging like earbuds and Air Pods Pro, so as far as fit goes, it's a big differentiator between the two and it might be the only difference that matters because the air pods pro don't fit in your ear you will have to go with power beats pro and if you don't like the hook that goes around your ear then let's stay away from the power beats pro, but either way they're going to hold up a lot better for most of the people out there just because there's no way, no matter what you're doing, moving your head, that you're going to be able to disengage from your ear, so yeah You're looking for the best fit, you're looking for something that will actually stay on while you go to the gym and play sports, whatever it is, it's definitely going to be a lean towards those power beats pro.

The other big thing that stands out about the power beats pro is the battery duration. These things have a nine-hour battery life on a single charge, which is extremely impressive, so you can put them on and literally spend an entire work day with them on and not have to worry. about loading them up and taking them out, that's a huge benefit for the power beats Pro, just the incredible battery life, now comes with a little asterisk because while they have a great night, our hitter, on a single charge, doubles that of Their Potts Pro air pods and power beats pro pods have the same total battery life including the battery booster found in the cases you're looking at.

They both have a 24-hour charge, so you're just looking to Say it gets you through the weekend is like we've addressed an issue. They both have the same amount of charge between the earbuds and the case now, before we get to the Air Pops Pro and then we have to talk about our overall recommendation for this video. about our amazing sponsor who is helping us today and like zag zag has a lot of brands under their umbrella but the one we are talking about today is Mophie movi they have amazing charging products we love their battery cases for phones they are the best . notch, but in this case we are going to talk about their battery packs, their battery packs are amazing, they have such a premium feel between the different fabrics that wrap the outside, they all have really fast high performance using USB C and USB between 15 and 30, I believe these guys have 60 watt outputs and on their top of the line battery pack there is even an AC, the AC power station has an actual AC output to plug in anything else. it supports USB C or USB A so it can't work or any other accessories you have so I love their battery packs they are amazing they even have an awesome wireless power station where you just say your phone or your Air Pods on the top and top it off with anything to carry a cable with you, great to go on the go and try to keep everything simple, so if you want to grab some Mophie, grab some Zag, follow the link below in the description.

Ian use our exclusive discount code there and save even more now let's get back to the air pad pro. The Arafat pro actually has a lot of benefits over the powerbeats pro, so first is that they are much smaller and have a more compact form factor. I love the design. the air pods pro honestly i love the design of the original air pods on the air pops pro it came out a little crooked with the case opening sideways but whatever it is it's a minor issue at this point because i love this smaller form factor. The fact that they can fit in a pocket.

The Powerbeats on my hand, bro, are a little bulbous. I need to have more room in there to fit those hooks, so that was a bit of a problem if you're looking for portability. You know which one is easier to carry day to day, whether you are in the gym or out of the gym, you should go for AER pots Pro. The next big benefit of the earpods Pro is the real sound quality, so I'm calling you. on the earpods Pro, after listening to these things for two months, it is much better than the power beats Pro.

I listen to these two headphones a lot during the last 60 days and I have to go for the AER pots Pro, they are more complete. sound, there is a larger soundstage and they have more dynamic range than the power beats Pro. In fact, the Pro air pods have more bass on the power beats pro tube, it could be partly due to the seal, which is why the Arafat's Pro have an incredible seal on the headphones. They themselves are kind of an oval shape and they fit really well and when there's a good seal it blocks out more noise and it'll just give you a better sound and its stuff, any kind of air that leaks in, it's not as sealed, it just does it again. .

As good times, that could be part of the reason why, for me, the Air Pods Pro have better sound than the Power Beats Pro. Outside of the sound, outside of the form factor of the two devices, we have other real features which we will talk about. like qi wireless charging for the case, you don't have to plug anything in, the easiest thing is to leave them on your desk at night and get home every day, you don't have to worry about charging them and then the second thing is actually the cancellation features active noise cancellation, so there is active noise cancellation instead of just passive noise cancellation that you get with power beats Pro, and they have a transparency mode that allows you to hear your surroundings, so they will be much better on Planes, Trains , whatever is going to happen. you have a little bit of background noise and then you have transparency mode so if you're walking down the street or you're at the gym and you want to hear what's going on around you as well as listening to your music switch into transparency mode you can hear all those noises and I've never heard a passthrough audio mode as good as the air pod's transparency mode, it feels very natural and a lot, but on some of the kennel walkies we've heard out there Somehow it makes your voice sounds louder or distant or echoy, weird things happen, but on the Air Pods Pro it actually sounds very natural and we really like using a kind of huge safety feature also for running when you're out, so between the two .

For that reason alone, I shift a bit towards the Earpods Pro when it comes to sound quality when it comes with a warm setting feature and then the actual active versus passive noise cancellation, so that says it between the two. Most people should opt for the Ear Pods Pro if they are debating between the two. The Ear Pods Pro is the winner. Sound quality. It is more compact. It remains resistant to sweat and water. Has action or cancel and transparency mode has new controls for. the new four stems there is a lot to love with the new ear pods pro power beats pro they are still great headphones and if you don't find the ear pods pro fit then you don't have to worry about feeling bad about go power beats pro, they are still great headphones, they still fit, they sound much better than the standard air pos, they are available so you still have a win there and with those ear hooks they are not going anywhere, amazing battery life, they still are .

Sweat and water resistant. An amazing pair of headphones so you can't go wrong in any way, but I think most people would be happier with the Ear Pods Pro. These things cost the same amount of money. I would choose the Air Pods problem. There are better headphones out there that work just as well outside the gym as they do now in the gym, so I'd know what you think, let me know in the comments below or contact me directly on Twitter at Andrew underscore OSU Hi everyone.
