"AIRPODS PRO" Review noise canceling, sound quality, waterproof performance (1) | Mynavi News Mynavi News Mynavi

Apple has appeared in the new completely wireless earphone "AirPods Pro" that bears the name of "Pro".The major difference from the conventional AirPods is that it has an "active noise canceling" function that makes the disturbing noise around the listening environment.I would like to report the ability of AirPods Pro, including the sound quality I heard with the iPhone 11 Pro.

A clear sound that feels the benefits of the active noise canceling function

As you know, the first AIRPODS that appeared in December 2016 was a huge hit that lasted a long time.In March of this year, Apple has an Apple H1 chip for wireless audio designed by Apple, supports hands -free “Hey Siri”, and has a case where wireless charging is available.I did it.AIRPODS PRO, which has been added to the lineup of Apple's wireless earphones as a sister machine that many music fans around the world, has a new active noise canceling function and has a dramatically high sound insulation performance.became.

Conventional AirPods, which uses open housing, is a great attraction that you can enjoy clear mid -high range with less sound "komori".What kind of sound will the AirPods Pro enjoy the housing as a sealed type and a noise canceling function?

The AirPods Pro has the "external sound import" status that allows you to listen to music while capturing the sound of the surrounding environment with a microphone mounted on the main unit, and both functions are invalidated.We have three listening modes of "off".Both noise canceling and external sound can not be turned on.If you select one of the menu, the other will be exclusively off.

First, I listened to the songs distributed on Apple Music, with the active noise canceling function turned on.

I feel that the glossiness of the female vocals and the high reproducibility to pick up the fine nuances are followed by the conventional AirPods.The sound of the music melody line, such as vocals, pianos, and guitars, is very vivid and alive.The details of the details were high, and the sound of the instrument was also rich in reality.

If you have noise canceling functions, you will be able to enjoy high and low -range sounds that are masked by noise during listening outdoors, that is, the sound of high and low frequencies that tend to be difficult to hear.The rich lingering lingering high range gives the vocals warm, and the bass beat with sharp and elastic stabilizes the base of the music.The music I listen to on AirPods Pro was very fleshy and I felt it was responsive.

When enjoying video content, you can feel the effect of the noise canceling function.In particular, movies and dramas are stressed if the dialogue (= lines) is difficult to hear.AirPods Pro is an earphone that allows you to draw the sound contained in video content, from human voice to detailed sound effects.The sound image is not small, and it is strongly and three -dimensional in a spacious space.

With the active noise canceling function, you will be able to listen to a comfortable balance without excessively increasing the volume of music playback.AirPods Pro is an earphone that can play a role in protecting the health of the user.

How do you use another new feature "external sound import"?

If you switch the outer sound import function to turn on, you will naturally hear the surrounding environmental sounds without blurring the balance of the music you were listening to in noise canceling mode.The reason why the environment sounds more clear than the open AirPods is that the environment sounds are monitored using the built -in microphone of AirPods Pro.Nevertheless, there is no noise or sound from the microphone, so the immersive feeling of music content is not impaired.

If you wear AirPods Pro at a quiet home or office and listen to music, you may want to turn off both the functions of noise canceling and external sound import.The balance of the sound does not collapse at all, and the time to play music continuously with the earphone alone is about 4.It grows a little from 5 hours to about 5 hours.

To summarize the sound quality I felt and the impression of the noise canceling function, the new AirPods Pro, like the conventional AirPods, enjoys the straightforward and balanced sound without putting any disturbing colors from the earphones.I felt it would be.

However, with the noise canceling function, the sound of each range is more powerful, and I think that it can also be obtained in a three -dimensional assertion.Especially when listening to music surrounded by large noise, such as subway, bus, and airplanes, you may be able to feel the value of the noise canceling function.

On the other hand, when enjoying music in a relatively quiet place, the clear and good sound of the conventional AirPods may feel more comfortable.Even after the release of AirPods Pro, conventional AirPods will be sold continuously.If you haven't used the AirPods series yet, choose the one you like for the sound and wearing feeling, and then get the other product and use it depending on the listening scene.increase.
