The AirPods took the world by storm upon their release. The memes and criticisms quickly diminished as the headphones clearly proved themselves to be convenient and reliable. Since release, the AirPods have seen very little change-instead introducing new models like AirPods Pro and AirPods Max-that is, until now. Are the new 3rd generation AirPods the best AirPods yet or are they a regression from their predecessor? It's not as cut-and-dry as we'd all hope. Let me explain...

    I just received my AirPods 3. They are a welcome improvement in the sound quality over the AirPods 2. The sound quality of the AirPods 3 is in line with that of the AirPods Pro. The main reason I upgraded was for the improved sound quality and spatial audio. I like AirPods Pro for use at the gym or whereever I need noise cancellation. The AirPods Pro though are not comfortable to me for long periods, I think because they create too much of a seal. The AirPods 3 now give me the sound quality I’ve come to enjoy with the AirPods Pro while also providing the comfort of the AirPods 2 for long duration listening,

    Precisely why I own both the 3 and the pros. It's not that tips are painful or horribly uncomfortable; they're just not effortlessly comfortable either. And if I'm at home most of the time, why do I need ANC or transparency? So the pros are my travel buds and the rest of the time they don't really get used.

    I've owned my Air Pods 2nd generation for two years and love them. I use them most to here the screen reader on mainly my iPhone, as I'm partially blind. Needless to say they've seen some very heavy use. While they still work ok, the batteries are starting to go, and they took an unintended swim one recent morning. I decided then that I'd better line up their replacements. Just as before, I chose the regular current offerings over the Pros for a couple reasons. 1: Being partially blind, my hearing is very important to me, and I like to have the option to hear the environment. I'm ok with ANC for over-the-ear when gaming or watching a movie, but not for everyday phone use. 2: I have small ear canals, prone to wax and ear infections. I'm not a fan of silicon tips, as I feel they just push any gunk up my ear canals. They're also just not comfortable, and I hate when they pop off. 3: A new reason, I got my new 3s majorly on sale, $40 off, plus a $25 gift card I had, so I got them for less than $125 after tax! I'm thrilled with them so far! I'm glad I bought them before my 2s fail me, because they're still an excellent backup/nighttime pair, even if the sound is not as good. With synthesized speech, that doesn't matter quite as much.

    Honestly, I prefer the Airpods 3 most of the time - I can eat without hearing myself chewing, I can hear properly myself talk on calls, I don't have to use pass-thru (which for some reason is massively over-bright) to listen for the doorbell, and they're great to listen to podcasts while playing video games - I can hear the non-cranked surround and the podcast. BUT - I also have times that I actually want to block noise - lawn care, anything with loud running water, over-riding boring music at the skating rink... these use cases REALLY require the Pros. So yeah, I got the 3's with the intention of deciding to keep them or the Pros... and ended up keeping both.

I am happy to not having to stuff anything into my ears anymore, comparing the feel of the 3s with the Pros side by side, I am happy to dump my Pros for that light sense on nothing, while containing most of the sound.

    Something that needs to addressed is the adaptive EQ. I remember with the old AirPods and even EarPods, as they get loose over time, the sound changes, the bass gets lost, so I have to push them in. With these, they adapt to that, so they sound consistent. You can hear how it changes by putting the AirPods 3 loose in your ears, then quickly pushing them in. You’ll hear extra low frequencies for a quick moment, then it adjusts. And the opposite way, quickly loosen them and you’ll lose all bass, like the old AirPods. But they adjust and make it sound better. I really like this about the AirPods, and I think it’s something people forget about or don’t realize the benefits of

These are exactly what I wanted. All the features of the Pros (button on the stems, better in-ear detection, spatial audio, better Find My, and way better battery life) without the tips and ANC.

    I really liked you review and it had much value! I would say that there are those of us out there who do not like wireless ear tips in our ears - I’m one of them. Also, some like to still be aware of sound around them, of which noise cancellation would eliminate. And, some of us find a more relaxed fit from and earbud setting in our ear instead of our earlobe and partially in the canal. I just purchased the AirPods 3 - found a way to get a brand new set at $125. Been testing them, walking with them, moving my head around to see if they’ll loosen. I totally love the sound, but I also have always benefitted from the secure fit in the 1st generation version. Well, I’m getting used to it and I’m truly into the sound. I never use buds like this for workout, so the AirPods three are seemingly gonna be perfect for me at this point. Thank you for a great review!

    Same, but these are my first set of AirPods. I usually go for sound quality first with pricey headphones, but the curiosity of the convenience hype finally got the better of me. Luckily, this purchase was made with a Christmas gift card and cash back rewards, so it's not that much of a hit for me. I just bought the set I have today, watching this video with them. While I find the sound to be...okay, the fit feels weird to me. It feels like at times it's about to fall out, but they never do even when I shake my head... But still feel like they're not secure enough in my ear...I get that it doesn't seal, but I still had an easier time getting Apple's standard earbuds that come with their phones to fit in my ears. I got these over the Pro because I don't really like earbuds that block my ear completely. I feel like I should've gone with the Pros though...Buyer's remorse, I suppose.

    I use AirPods 3 a lot at home, even though I have the pros. This is mostly due to the fact that I don't love having canal buds stufffed in my ear for long periods of time, and I appreciate the ability to hear some of my surroundings through them. When I'm traveling, I either want to be extra-conscious of my surroundings or I don't want to hear them at all, so I use the pros and flip between ANC and transparency (with custom accommodations set up.) The AirPods 3 actually sound almost as good as the pros to me, so I don't find the listening experience to be worse. If I had to pick just one, I'd probably go with the pros; but so many people watching this are probably tech collectors like me, so this is something to consider.

    Hey Quinn, great video. Just wanted to ask if your audio is meant to sound as echoey as it is? It’s a little distracting to my ears. Maybe if it’s a shotgun mic it could be positioned closer to you? Idk just my observation. But otherwise a really outstanding review.

    We are in a new studio that doesn’t have any sound treatment. Room is very echoey and I’ve been having to mitigate some of that with post processing. Sound treatment material is on the way, but it’s a few weeks out. Stay patient with us. Sorry!

    Thanks for an honest review. Would like hear how you feel about the EarPod Pro 2. Good sound with noise cancellation is a must for me. I also use BOSE QuietComfort and Soundcore X10 earbuds. Both of which I feel have better sound, but I prefer the noise cancellation and ease of use that the EarPod Pro has.

    You summed up my thoughts perfectly at the end. I just don't see a reason to get the 3s over the Pro unless you hate silicon tips or ANC. Maybe if the extra hour of battery life appeals to you, but I think the battery life would have needed a bigger boost to make these more of a recommend over the Pro.

    Many people loved apple headphones exactly because they did not have silicone tips but had great fit. These seem to improve in every direction so they will sell well. Pros are fine for people who don’t mind silicone tips and want anc or passive noise cancellation, many people don’t..

    there is one reason to get the 3's over the Pro's. The Pro's break. A lot. From personal experience and connections in the AASP/Apple Store industry, they have to swap dozens of them every day, per store. It's gotten to a point, where you don't even need to explain the problem to the Geniuses at an Apple Store, they already know what's wrong. There is even an extended warranty program for them. The mic in the Pro's (the one facing inwards) is getting loose after some time from moving or from the vibrations of the driver. This leads to a number of problems: rattling while walking, static sounds, weaker ANC and weaker bass. I went through 3 pairs until I finally returned them about 3 weeks ago. If you want something that lasts, get something else. Until Apple truly fixes them, I can't recommend the Pro's to anyone sadly.

    I don't hate the tips of the pros, I actually got memory foam tips from Amazon and they're quite nice. That said, I don't love having them in my ear for a long time either. The AirPods 3 sound amazing, and if I'm not in a loud environment they're perfect for casual use. They improve on the gen2 without sacrificing comfort (for me at least.) That makes them worth having even when I already have and love the pros.

    Frankly, I haven't wanted to turn that feature off since it released. Which is concerning. Because it takes my choice of headphone from hundreds or thousands to just Apple's blessed AirPods. It changed the audio so much for me that I have concerns on leaving iOS ever for the fear of missing out on that sound enhancement.
