Original title: also overturned the AirPods Pro 2, when will the new Apple products end?
Sentence | Akemi Mugen
After years of rapid growth for TWS earbuds, product differentiation has gradually narrowed. At a time when noise reduction is popular, TWS track innovation appears to have been weak, and Apple’s AirPods series has an increasingly small lead in the TWS headphone market.
However, Apple recently released a new generation of TWS headphones, the AirPods Pro 2, which is a very obvious upgrade from the previous generation. For example, it uses a new H2 chip, and with iOS 16, users can create their own spatial audio data. Also, it supports higher audio sample rates and the sound quality is obviously better.
But recently,Some Apple AirPods Pro 2 users have reported that the headset often disconnects from the device when listening to music or watching videos, which is inevitable whether it’s an iPhone or an iPad.
At the same time, some users have claimed that the phone may display a bug related to the AirPods Pro being connected but not actually connected. And these problems happen occasionally and randomly, and the specific cause hasn’t been determined yet, and not even Apple has given a clear answer.
It is worth mentioning that such problems were already reported when the first generation of AirPods Pro was launched in 2019 and the new generation of “AirPods Pro” was launched three years after the first generation. This bug still exists, so many users have expressed disappointment.
Shipments of the new “AirPods Pro 2” began on Friday and it is unclear how widespread the bug is. You can try to update AirPods Pro and iPhone to the latest firmware and iOS version when you encounter similar issues.The latest 2nd generation AirPods Pro firmware version is 5A377.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there is a problem with the hardware itself, but the overall improvement of the AirPods Pro 2 is not large.The previous generation is already a very mature product and the likelihood of hardware problems is relatively small.
Also, in addition to the lanyard hole and speaker on the charging box, the biggest upgrade of the AirPods Pro 2 this time around is the H2 chip, which makes the noise reduction capability stronger and can also support adaptive transparency mode. , through 48,000 calculations per second Brings better adaptive transparency.
So please note that the 2 times noise reduction effect should be increased by about 3db after the actual formula conversion, that is, the 2 times increased noise reduction effect is actually increased from 35db to about 38db, not many users think it is converted directly from 35db times to 70db, we must pay attention.
The specific usage effect, if there are users who buy AirPods Pro for the first time in 2019, they may have an impression. The noise reduction performance of the AirPodsPro was much stronger than what we use now, but the side effect is that the ear pressure is great, and if you wear it for a long time, you may experience slight dizziness and nausea. Subsequently, after several versions of OTA updates, Apple reduced the noise-reducing effect of the AirPodsPro (there is a clear feeling) and also reduced the pressure of the ear to achieve the purpose of being able to wear it for a long time.
The noise reduction performance of the Pro2 is a little more aggressive than the effect of the first AirPods Pro and can almost be tied to the AirPods Max. Ear pressure has increased, but it’s not as uncomfortable as it was at first. is acceptable to you personally, I still recommend that you actually borrow it from friends or colleagues who have already purchased it and try it out before making a choice.
Also, today Mingmei Infinite is keen to remind you that in addition to supporting the Lightning interface and MagSafe magnetic charging, AirPods Pro 2 can now be charged using the Apple Watch charger.
Unlike the first generation, even when AirPods Pro 2 is wearing and listening to songs, the battery widget on the iPhone desktop can normally display the battery status of the charging box itself.
Therefore, when we charge the earphone box while listening to the songs, we can also check the charge status of the earphone box in real time, which is quite convenient.
Also, in terms of battery life, the performance of the AirPods Pro 2 is better than that of the original headphones.
Furthermore, according to the test, the AirPods Pro 2 lasted for a total of 6 hours and 15 minutes before announcing the strike after mixed use of noise reduction, transparency mode and calls.
Therefore, even without a headphone case, the AirPods Pro 2 can basically meet the needs of daily commuting and learning.
Also, what Mingmei needs to remember today is that Apple’s 2022 Education Discount Activities will be July 14 to September 26. This means that this year’s event is drawing to a close. Consumers can purchase an eligible Mac or iPad with educational discounts and receive AirPods (2nd generation) headphones, as well as discounts on Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard, and a 20% discount on AppleCare + service plans.
For example, when users buy 10.9 inch iPad Air wireless LAN model with 64GB, they can get AirPods (2nd generation) for free (original price RMB999), and they can add RMB350 to get AirPods (3rd generation) with charging case Lightning (original price RMB1349), you can add RMB400 to get AirPods (third generation) with MagSafe charging box (original price RMB1399), and finally you can add RMB900 to get AirPods Pro (second generation) (original price RMB1899), and users can choose also “No need, thanks”.
In the end, Mingmei’s unlimited purchase advice is: This is a brand new product developed from the AirPodsPro product line after 3 years.The price of 1899 yuan has a 100 yuan advantage over the first generation.If you can use the discount educational, will likely be less than 1000 yuan Yuan can start. Compared to the current starting price of around 1500 in the first generation third-party channels, the new second generation of 1899 is more affordable. It can be said to be a full upgrade version of the various drawbacks of the first-generation.If you want to buy AirPodsPro, there is no reason to buy it except the price. The first generation.
