I'm so excited hi y'all it's Annelies and this is the first thing I've pre-ordered in
a very very long time and that is the second generation AirPods Pro
if you know me and my oh my God, I'm gonna focus, hold on, it literally arrived like
not even five minutes ago. Today is September 23rd when I'm filming this so literally the day
they came out I accidentally pre-ordered them and when I say accidentally I wasn't planning
on pre-ordering them I was like thinking about getting them and then on whatever day they were
available for pre-order I just happened to be like I think I'm gonna order them
and then I happened to be on the website 30 minutes before the pre-order started
so I was literally one of the first people to pre-order them I love how they do this it's like
I'm so excited now if you don't know my journey with the AirPods Pro I actually got the first
AirPods Pro I think the day they launched or like within a couple of days of launch day in 2019 and
I was really excited about them it was my first pair of AirPods actually I had just bought in
the second first generation AirPods and then the announcement happened and so I promptly returned
them and waited for these to come out and I love AirPods but I don't know what it is with the shape
of these ears of mine but they hurt my ears so bad to the extent that like if you've watched my
videos talking about AirPods or headphones you've heard this story a thousand times but my whole ear
hurt and I like couldn't go to sleep laying on my ear it was really weird but I watched the event
obviously and yes there is an event recap coming I'm literally editing it today so I'm just gonna
remove the whole part about the AirPods because we're gonna be talking about it in this video
but I watched somebody else's video Brian Tong talked about them at the event because he was at
the Steve Jobs theater and got to get his hands on them and he said that they were differently shaped
I don't know how much differently shaped I don't know if they're actually going to be differently
shaped and I don't know if they're going to be differently shaped enough to not hurt my ears
but I figured I would take him for a spin and see if I can use earbuds I just love them so
much and they're so good so okay I'm gonna stop yacking, yapping, yeah I'm gonna stop talking
oh there's two
ah there they are that's so we have the paperwork I couldn't remember if Apple stickers came with
these they do not, ear tips, USBC to lightning cable I appreciate that but when it comes to
the AirPods Pro second generation there are a couple of new things primarily with the body
of the case which I thought this was so much bigger but that's not yeah it's it's the same
size as the AirPods regular case just turned sideways oh my God first on the right hand
side if you're facing it there is now a lanyard Loop it doesn't come with a lanyard but you can
buy one I personally like putting a case on my AirPods I technically have two pairs of regular
air pods but I have these little cases on them I got them on Amazon they're so cute but I could
have done the lanyard Loop thing but that would have been too simple so I did order a Baymax case
throw them in so I don't get them scratched up or drop them or anything like that if we
look at the bottom of the case there is now a two speakers both of these is that a microphone I just
realize I don't know there's there's four little holes down here essentially it's a now a speaker
system so that way if you have to do the find my system because you lost your AirPods the case it's
self plays a sound versus previously the sound would be coming out of the AirPods
you're making a whole bunch of sounds oh my gosh I'm like nervous to put them in my ears because
I don't think they're gonna and I'm gonna be so sad if they hurt I'm very I don't know why
I'm nervous this is the thing I've been waiting for I'm very excited okay some things that are
new with the AirPods Pro second generation is that they have twice the noise canceling
which now that I live here in London I've also been on the hunt for headphones that will noise
cancel out that will have enough ANC to cancel out the tube here because it's freaking loud
still on the hunt for good ANC particularly earbuds but like any sort of headphone along
with that they have additional drivers because the word essentially way better sound quality
better noise cancellation better battery life and there's some new touch controls
on the stem so I'm explaining these AirPods because I'm stalling it's time to put them
in my ears now okay they're so pretty okay and they go personally spatial audio oh okay
it's already it's already working these are the oh oh good lord okay everything got real quiet
wWe have personalized spatial audio a new feature with the AirPods Pro second generation
is personalized spatial audio which is that thing where like let's say you're watching a movie in
front of you and then you turn your head to the side you'll hear more sound this way than you
will this way and it kind of moves the the audio around the space rather than it just always being
the same no matter how you're facing so that's fun I guess I don't know if I've ever actually
used anything with that feature but with the second generation Pros it's actually going to
ask to scan my ears using the face ID scanner it gets more of like kind of I don't know if
it's technically lidar but it gets kind of a 3D rendering of your ear in order to personalize
the audio experience I don't know sounds like witchcraft to me I'm just gonna say right now
they've been in my ears for a second so far I'm feeling good but it's a matter of a test
of time to see how long they feel good these are the mediums I don't think I'd want to size down
because that's another new thing that comes with the AirPods Pro second Generations we've got four
size options so we have extra small small large and then the mediums are the ones that come on
in the case so I'm gonna just leave these mediums in for now and then I'm going to do the AirPods
Pro like fit sound test to see if it thinks that I need a different size earbud let's go through
this facial audio thing okay get started take care pad's out of my ears okay oh my God how loud was I
talking oh boy personalized spatial audio you can use your iPhone camera to personalize facial audio
for the shape of your ears position your face in the camera frame this is like a face ID scan
right ear and then move your head slightly to the right and then to the left oh my gosh
did I do it okay I don't know what any of this does and I want to do the ear tip fit test so
I wasn't expecting that to be so loud I'm just taking a long time why is this taking so long
it's so suspicious I don't think it's supposed to be taking this long
but it still says do not remove air pods and it's still thinking so I don't know why this
is taking so long for the record they're still comfortable so that's good in case if you're
curious these are the second generation air pods with wireless charging case and these
are the second generation AirPods Pro that's the case different size there so it's not a massive
size difference which is nice especially if you're not rocking a case on them at least
it's not going to be too much it's not a such a larger form factor in your pocket so that's
good to know this is taking four minutes so far what the heck you know I'm impatient I'm gonna
deal this later I am gonna try out the extra small ear tips though no no that is nope that
is way too small that's gonna fall out of my ear I don't know how anybody has that small of yours
nope that would fall out instantly okay well it doesn't work either I think the large is too big
hmm the large is definitely too large so, so far they're feeling pretty comfy I can like
move my face and like shake my head and they don't feel like they're falling out I'm not
feeling any tenderness in my ear so far which has been the previous problem with me and AirPods Pro
so that's so far a good sign but also I think they fit fine when I originally got them and it
was a matter of having them be in my ears for a little bit longer so I actually have to go
run some errands now that these have arrived and so I think I'm gonna wear them while I'm out and
about and then when I come back home later I'll kind of give you a first impressions after just
using them for a little bit like an hour or so I'm gonna pop back in give a little First Impressions
and then I'm gonna do a full review after having them for about a week using them editing with them
playing music but right now I'm gonna just play some music just to see how it sounds
sounds really good okay sounds really good let's go to a podcast
I'm at half volume on all this and the sound is really clear with like people's voices this
particular episode has two people with two very different microphones and I could hear like all
the distinct differences between them I'm gonna play a YouTube video oh that's crispy the base it
is crazy okay I'm gonna try something with spatial audio give me something with spatial audio oh
what oh that's that's cool
that's crazy I don't I didn't realize this was gonna be this cool it's like if I'm holding my
phone in front of me which I assume like if you have your phone in your pocket or whatever it kind
of like knows and levels it out but this song I'm playing and like when I hold it on this side of
my head it feels like it's playing from my phone and like the reason why I hear it more is because
the speaker's right here and then I move it over here and it's the same on this side that is such
a Trippy experience that's weird I'm tripped out right now that's crazy so that's cool I enjoy that
feature two more things I want to try before I go is one this new case charges on the Apple watch
charger so I have the fancy little stand up Apple branded Apple watch charger and I'm just gonna oh
okay now will it work in the case probably not oh this is the best day ever this is so cool
and then lastly I wanted to play the find my sound to
see how loud it comes out of this case play sound
I'm surprised how loud that is I'm gonna put it under my pillows in my bed I want to see
if I can still hear it okay you might not be able to hear it because of the microphone that
I use in the sound editing that I do but I'm gonna see if I can hear it it's about I would
say 10 feet away from me under two pillows and a blanket so let's see if I can hear it.
it's not crazy loud but I can still hear it and if I was in my house like looking for my AirPods
I could one play that or do the little find thing that they have now or you can like do
the Direction with your phone kind of like a metal detector but playing that sound is
definitely loud enough to hear it if it falls under the bed or under the couch or in your car
thrilled about this I guess let's take these out on the town now I will be back for me in
like an hour and a half for you snap at the fingers so I went out to do my shopping and
running around and ended up running around for much longer than expected it's 7:50 right now
and I left it like one but I brought these along with me so I could test them out on the tube and
just wearing them for a little bit and I have to say just like First Impressions I'm really
excited about them yes they are in their little Baymax case already I put these in and put on
the little decibel reader on my Apple Watch and I have to say they worked so much better on the tube
than I was expecting I was coming from Central London there was a point in time that my watch
said it was 90 decibels and then I put them in my ears and turned on the noise cancellation
and it dropped down to 62 which is insane so like the question of do they actually work not only do
like the numbers don't lie it's different sound but also my experience wearing them when it got
really high pitched when it was really loud I kept switching from the active transparency to
the noise cancellation or just taking them out of my ears and just hearing a crazy difference and my
friend was even with me and I had her put them in when we were on the tube too and she was just like
this is crazy so as far as the noise canceling goes Color Me impressed as far as the feel and
fit goes so far I'm not having any sort of pain or issues or uncomfortability I didn't wear them for
long but I did wear them for kind of an extended period of time and so far I'm feeling good I am
going to be editing this video while wearing these air pods in about like as soon as I'm
done filming this video and I will let y'all know how that is but I'm just gonna say right now first
impressions of the AirPods Pro second generation and I'm so pleased I'm so impressed the charging
