You’ve likely heard of Airpods before, but you might be wondering which one to get: the third generation Airpods or the Airpods Pro 2? There are some major differences between the two generations, so let’s take a look at how they compare and where they’re similar so you can make an informed decision about which one to choose when you’re ready to buy.
Battery Life
AirPods 3 has an improved battery life, which can last you up to 5 hours of talk time and 12 hours of audio playback. Apple also claims that the H1 Chip in the new model can optimize power use and extend overall battery life. And, when it does need a charge, AirPods 3 will automatically recharge through a USB-C cable. On the other hand, if battery life is more important to you than water resistance, then the current AirPods Pro 2 would be the better choice. They’ll get you up to 7 hours of talk time or 14 hours of audio playback before they need to be charged again.
Sound Quality
Audio quality is usually the most important part of any headphones. And that’s true for earbuds, too! But with so many options on the market today it can be tough to find the right pair. We’ve narrowed it down to two pairs of some of the best and reviewed them to help you decide which one is right for you. So what’s different about the AirPods 3 vs. the new release from Apple, Airpods Pro 2? Let’s take a look and see what we can find out!
The biggest difference between these models is in their sound quality, with Airpods 3 doing a better job at creating an immersive soundscape than its newer counterpart.
With the release of Apple’s latest generation of AirPods, many people are considering upgrading. Here are some pros and cons to think about before making your decision. *While the AirPods 3 use the H1 chip which is designed to work more seamlessly with Siri, it still only has three hours of battery life as opposed to 4.5 hours on the old AirPods. The difference in battery life may not seem significant but can be significant if you’re doing a ton of traveling. *The older version has the W1 chip which means that they are easier to connect and have a better Bluetooth range than the new ones.
Comparison Chart
In this blog post, we’ll break down the differences between the two versions and which one is right for you. Let’s go over what makes each version unique to determine which might work best for your needs.
1. Apple created two versions of their AirPods. The first is referred to as the 3rd Generation and was released on March 25th, 2019.
2. The second version is called the Pro. It was released on September 19th, 2019.
While both products serve as an all-in-one earbud replacement, they differ in terms of sound quality and other features.
My Experience with Each Model, And Why I Prefer the Original to the Newest Version
In my opinion, the original AirPods are better than the newer version of the AirPods. Here’s why. The new ones may be sleeker but they have an annoying gap in between when you wear them so there is a bit of discomfort. Plus, I find that the sound quality on these newer headphones is not as good because it doesn’t have a cambered design. I also feel like this new design isn’t as reliable because there is only one primary button to control everything rather than two buttons like on the original models.
