Product Description Summary & Analysis

The article "Apple AirPods Pro review: Airpods perfected" (Yeo, 2019) introduces the product design and features of the Apple AirPods Pro, which comes with new design and improvement over its predecessors. According to Yeo (2019), the AirPods Pro has a comfortable design, which includes the fitting of the microphones and hardware for the active noise-cancelling feature. Each earbud comes with three distinct sizes of delicate, adaptable silicone ear tips which are designed in a manner that are very short and will not intrude deep into the ears of the users.

AirPods Pro is equipped with "a system of vents" that enables equalised pressure and prevents the ear tips from getting too loose (Yeo, 2019). Users will be able to test the seal of their AirPods Pro with the use of the Ear Tip Fit Test which helps them to pick the fitting of the silicone ear tip. The all-new design highlights active noise cancellation, which utilises two microphones that generate waveforms that are opposite one another so that they can cancel out each other. The AirPods Pro persistently listens and "adjusts the noise-cancellation at 200 times per second". Many wireless earbuds come close to the AirPods Pro. However, it stands out amongst its competitors in terms of design and features.


One of the features that come with the AirPods Pro is the transparency mode. This feature allows outside noise in which allows users to hear what is going on around them. Not many AirPods Pro competitors are built with this unique feature such as the EAH-AZ70W by Technics (What HiFi?,2020). This puts AirPods Pro in a more favourable position among its competitors as it not only gives users the noise cancellation feature but also an additional transparency feature. Besides that, AirPods Pro comes with an adaptive equaliser feature which provides the users with the best audio performance. The inbuilt internal microphone collects readings of the low and mid frequencies and tunes it to accommodate the differences in the sizes of unique ears.


Another feature that makes the AirPods Pro stand out from its competitors is that it currently still gets firmware updates to improve its existing features better. According to Welch (2020), spatial audio and automatic switching will be the two new features added to the AirPods Pro. Automatic switching instantaneously switches sound playbacks between your apple devices without the hassle of reconnecting the devices. Additionally, the spatial audio gives an immersive surround sound experience for the AirPods Pro. This feature is unique to the AirPods Pro and allows firmware updates to eclipse its competitors in terms of software.


The force sensor feature also brings about multiple functions with the help of its design. With the unique design of the stem, a force sensor can fit inside without compromising the comfort aspect of the AirPods Pro. There are many unique ways the stem can be pressed or held, and the way it works makes it extremely reliable and predictable. Comparatively, many competitors have minimal functions when it comes to its controls on the wireless earbuds, such as the EAH-AZ70W, whereby the earbuds are more reliant on its controls with the device it is paired with (What HiFi?,2020).


In conclusion, AirPods Pro would be the best option for those who are looking to purchase high-end wireless earbuds. With features like noise cancellation and sleek yet useful design of the force sensor built into the AirPods Pro, it gives users a unique experience that cannot be compared to no other when it comes to the best listening experience.
