5.0 out of 5 starsFit well, easy to pose music !
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 July 2024
I have been using my AirPod 2 over 8 years and it started stop working on one ear. The battery life gets much shorter as 1h30 mins instead of 5 hours. They still work but the time I can use gets shorter and shorter month by month giving me a bit of sweat 😰 to anticipate the end . I started feeling that it is the time to upgrade my AirPod . They did work so long perfectly every day for me . I had hesitation between pro and AirPod 3 . But my silicone lemon case got moulds up and I had been unable to remove them by any antibacterial products. They entered deep inside of silicone material. So I had a great doubt about the silicone ear pods. I had decided for the AirPod 3 without them . The stem is shorter but fits my small ear canal so well . I shake my head and jump to test but they don’t drop from my ear . Great for sports.
Shame that I can’t share my test video. Also AirPod3 gives you a stem control and without taking them off like v2 , you can pose the music in a shop to talk to people. I don’t want to be rude nor antisocial so this is much appreciated upgrade . Only the issue is the volume control . You got to ask Siri to increase volume or decrease it . Siri does it but only for one command per one press of your stem . Doesn’t accept my second request : a bit louder please. You got to start again to call Siri . In public place, I do look wierdo possibly. Pro has this stem control for volume . But I insist that I don’t like silicone for hygiene reasons . Overall I am very happy with AirPod 3 . Very comfortable to wear them . The sound quality gets slightly better after 6 uses but you can adjust them in system settings . I prefer not to follow the test as ended in the wrong settings . Try selecting one with you favourite music and compare with other 2 . I prefer balanced tone and make the soft sound come forward strongly . Often Apple products automatically upgrades the quality while we are using so I guess the sound is not that wow on the first music after your set up . Spatial Audio needs to be set up showing your ears. You do feel differences from normal audio settings. Not overly dramatic but good to use it . AirPod 3 is great with the stem control . I no longer need to tap my ear and I can pose music without taking them out from my ears and hurry to find a case in my bag or pockets not to loose them . Wonderful. I don’t walk without AirPod over 8 years. It is indeed my encouragement for walking. With AirPod I now walk longer and do sports much more. Life gets so much richer with world musics . When I was young it was so hard to get foreign music. Crossing borders was so hard . Compared with the record recorded my first concert at the age4 , we are living in extraordinary time with full choices and stimulation for our creativity. I do recommend AirPod 3 . Affordable with credit without interest in Amazon and simply I cannot live without it ! Thank you for delivering this to me.
