    Airpods Pro Unboxing, Size Comparison, and Initial Impressions

    Posted: 29 Oct 2019 08:28 PM PDT

    Unboxing and size comparison photos found here

    Initial impressions in simple, practical terms:

    • Pairing w/iPhone 11 was simple & identical to Airpods
    • Ear test is easily completed within three seconds and a nice touch
    • Pushing on the stem w/two fingers for about one second toggles between active noise cancellation, transparency mode
    • Quickly pushing on the stem once toggles between play & pause, twice for next track, and thrice for previous track
    • Sound quality is subjective, but in my opinion is only slightly better than Airpods due to the seal formed. Tested w/a few bass-heavy tracks and they get the job done but are nothing extraordinary. OTOH, Jabra 65t's have noticeably better sound quality than the Airpods Pro
    • Call quality was on par w/Airpods
    • Out-the-box the left pod had 85% battery, right had 54%, and the case was at 50%
    • I have not had an opportunity to truly test the ANC but in a controlled environment it felt fine. However, as a frequent flier, I doubt their ability to knock out as much ambient noise as my QC 35's

    These observations took me literally no more than twenty minutes. It is possible in practical use my thoughts will change over longer usage throughout the day.

    Update: I left for work, walking to the train station, and am currently riding on public transport in Tokyo. Here are some more quick thoughts:

    • Standard fishbowl sound when wearing in-ear is not present in transparency mode. This was not immediately noticeable until I walked out and was locking my door. With ANC on there is only a slight fishbowly sound
    • ANC was immediately noticeable as I walked outside. It is very good at removing traffic noise and other average noise you hear when walking outside
    • Transparency mode is great for getting a good sense of what noises are around you while walking around. Turning ANC off completely does the same whereas transparency mode seems to add some amplification, although exactly what it is I could be wrong
    • While waiting at a train crossing, with the standard warning noises of an incoming train quite loud, ANC completely removed all of the sounds
    • On the train itself, all standard noise is completely blocked by ANC. If you have to rely on the train operator to announce your stop, best bet is to use transparency mode or turn ANC completely off
    • No additional noticeable difference in sound quality throughout a variety of musical genres

    I will do my best to quickly address any questions anyone may have.

    DIY matte AirPods in 5 min

    Posted: 29 Oct 2019 07:04 AM PDT

    I found while cleaning my airpods that if you scrub them with a dry magic eraser (doesnt seem to work when wet) for a couple minutes you get a matte finish very similar to the 2nd gen apple pencil. Thought they looked cool matte and wanted to share this technique
