What's happening? This is the altar here from smartbuytrainers.com at the latest Apple event. The MacBook Pro was the highlight of the show, but I think Apple made the Airpods perfect. These are the Airpod 3. Apple did not send them to me, in fact I bought them on the spot. were available these are the ones I have been looking for a long time and I will tell you why they are perfect at least for me so this is a first impression if you want a long term

review

like in three months or so you hit the button Like it and let me know in the comment what you want to know.

So my

airpods

menus I pretty much use them all day, but I also use them for

running

indoors and outdoors and I've already done a few runs with these. and some indoor rides too, so I'll tell you my overall impression of these for workouts and regular use. The

airpods

come in a small box with the airpods and a case. Does not include charger. Airpods use a Lightning cable. The same charging cable you use. for an iphone and now you can also charge them with magsafe or a wireless charger the airpods 3 look very similar to the airpod pro without the ear tip the case is a little smaller the stem is smaller than previous airpods and now looks the same Like the stem of the Airpod Pro, the Airpods 3 have the touch force sensor on the stem, just like the Air Pods Pro, instead of the tap you had to do on previous Airpods.

A press on the stem will play or pause a double press. fast forward, a triple press will rewind or rewind a song, so this is another feature that I liked about the airpods pros and apple passed it to the regular airpods. Really the main difference between the airpod 3 and the airpods pro is the lack of active noise cancellation. of an ear tip and if you don't like the ear tip these are perfect for you let's talk about the price the airpod 3 is now between the airpods pro and the previous generation airpods which apple still sells 429 , AirPods 3 sell for $479.

So around $50 more than the previous Airpods, the Airpods Pro sell for $249, so the Airpod 3 now sits in the middle of the two and is offered as a third option. Airpods 3 now have adaptive equalizer and spatial audio for a more immersive experience. They are amazing for watching movies, but for music, I personally didn't notice a big difference, but if you like watching movies, it's just amazing. I have a Bose home theater system in my house and it's great, I love it, but I put this on. last night to watch a Netflix movie just to experience a special audio and it blew me away so if you are into watching movies or you like watching movies while

cycling

indoors you will love the new airpods airpods are finally water. and sweat resistance, these are ipx4 rated for the airpods and case, so they should withstand heavy sweating and rain if you get caught in the rain while

running

outside.

Now the old airpods were not sweat resistant, but I literally put them in the washing machine. mistake and they came out fine, so I know Apple didn't put the ipx4 rating on the old airpods, but I'm pretty sure they did, but it's nice to see Apple officially saying they're sweat resistant. Airpods 3 have 6 hours of listening time. and up to 4 hours of talk time 5 minutes of charging in the case will give you about an hour of battery life. With the case you will get up to 30 hours of battery life. This is an improvement over previous airpods that abandoned it.

At five hours of battery life and 24 hours with the case and much better than the AirPods Pro, which has only four and a half hours of battery life and around 24 hours with the case, the Air Pass 3 features a skin detection sensor that can indicate if No, the headphones are in your ear, rather than in a pocket or on a table, and pause playback when removed. The Airpods 3 look a lot like the Airpods Pro without the ear tip. The speaker itself also looks like Airpods, but a little larger. I noticed. Right away when I put them on, they fit me perfectly on an 80 minute ride.

I was reluctant to adjust or touch the airpods to see if they would stay in my ear throughout the trip. A little over an hour later the right one fell out so you'll find yourself adjusting the airpods from time to time which is typical but not as much as I used to do with the airpod pro but the only thing I noticed was that the audio The music itself didn't change much, for example, the airpods pro I had. to constantly adjust them to maintain that tight seal and get that rich audio, but these were really good until one ear completely fell off my right ear.

You can also use one airpod at a time. I do this a lot when I'm on the phone. The conversations are good, you can hear the other person perfectly clearly and they can hear you very well. The microphone is covered by an acoustic mesh to help reduce wind noise so that the speaker's voice can be heard well. The Airpods also have a codec that offers Full HD. Voice quality so your phone calls and FaceTime calls go much better The music audio is really good The AirPods 3 have a custom driver and high dynamic range amplifier with a good powerful base with crisp and clean high frequencies.

I also found that they sound louder. I don't know if it's just me or they actually sound better. The adaptive equalizer tunes play in real time based on how the airpods fit in your ear, so it's great when you're working out and you'll find the audio sounds really good without having to constantly do it. adjust the airpods, something that normally drives me crazy with other headphones, the spatial audio with dynamic shock tracking is great and fun to use when you watch movies and you will get that immersive experience and it is really cool the first time you experience it, but for running or exercising won't make any difference unless you like watching movies when you exercise indoors the airpods trees are like the love child between the airpods 2 and the airpods pro they look better, better audio than the previous generation, better battery life than the airpod 2 and airpod pro and they come with all the pro audio features except active noise cancellation and since I wear them all day and use them for phone calls and running outside personally, I didn't mind the active noise cancellation, I actually find noise cancellation can be uncomfortable at times when taking phone calls, doing housework, or taking a walk around the neighborhood.

The Airpods Pro have a transparency mode that works great, but why pay more to have active noise cancellation if it's something you won't really use or care about? I really like having active noise cancellation when I travel by plane, but I prefer to use the Sony WH 1000 or 2000, I don't know what number we are at now, the other thing about Airpods is like everything Apple has. They integrate well with the Apple ecosystem, so if you're six feet deep in the Apple ecosystem like me, you'll love the Airpods. Siri is always available and you can listen to notifications, reply to messages, and do all kinds of serious things.

Additionally, Airpods will switch between them. The devices are not as perfect as Apple claims, but once you pair them with your iPhone, Apple TV, iPad, and your MacBooks they will recognize it. Sometimes it's perfect and sometimes it's not so perfect, but if you're walking with the Airpods in your ear and you turn. On Apple TV you will have the option to change the audio to use your Airpods. Whether you have an iPad or a MacBook, you can easily switch between devices and won't have to worry about pairing or Bluetooth limitations. Listen, I know. You probably want to jump to most Apple products.

I admit, their stuff works great, but I'm also late to the Airpods game and they quickly became my

favorite

headphones and my go-to when I run, so if you need headphones for all-day listening. workouts and I mean long sweaty runs or runs in the rain or indoor workouts like zwift or peloton and I want something that will last you for years and withstand all the sweating. I have no doubt that their pods will work well for outdoor

cycling

. I personally don't. You use or like to use any type of headphones, it's just not safe to do so and I don't recommend it, but if you want to have one in to receive notifications and take phone calls, you can always wear one in one ear and leave the other in.

Open it so you are aware of the traffic around you. Listen, you'll love them. There are no ifs or buts. I know you can get fakes from other different brands for much cheaper, but you get what you pay for and there is a reason. Why will you find so many trying to copy Airpods?
