Apple: our noise cancelling software is so advanced it can block the sound of poor people.
What!!! I can't hear you.
Lol what I hate about this commentary is that if you're struggling financially you shouldn't even be looking at buying high-end headphones, let a lone complaining that they're expensive. You can literally go to the dollar store and get basic headphones. My point is, there's cheap options for everything in this world, we shouldn't get mad at a company for making better products and charging for it.
@@jameswrhymer Calm down, it's just a joke. Most people here know that Apple product are overpriced and that there are better alternatives.
@@meerminman Wait, you saying Apple products are overpriced means it's not a joke lol. You're saying the opposite of what I said. They're really not overpriced, and a lot of the time they are the best among competitors in the space they're aiming for. I'm just saying if you're going to complain about the price, go get the cheaper options. But I wouldn't say those options are "better." They're expensive because they're quality, not just to be expensive, is my point.
@@jameswrhymer Lol, you almost got me.
To my ears these 3rd Gen Air pods are more comfortable compared to the newer Pro version with the soft gel tips. czcams.com/users/postUgkxgl8SzyQoymMu-S3V55Dskg5QJ8xr1yCR That said, compared to the 3rd Gen, I notice these do not stay planted in the ear as well. One design issue I think, is you squeeze the stem and click it twice to advance your songs. On 3rd gen you tap the large speaker. The difference is by grabbing the stem each time, you tend to loosen the bud fit in your ear. Not always, but the bud falls out a few times while running. The old tap to change never had that problem for me. I would not have changed that tap function. That said, the newer Pro version sticks in the ear, almost airtight if you want that. I do not like that Airtight fit. So that's why I'd stay with this version as the best trade off of comfort, use, and overall feel.

Some tiny clarifications, when you take it off, it does go into a low power mode. It goes into further low power after 2 hours, and there is a way to do a wired connection. They sell an overpriced lightening to aux cable.
Is the further low power mode still activated if there’s no case? The case puts it into the further low power state right away too right?

Question mark?
I like your initial reactions and how you call things for what they are. A lot of people get stuck in the consumer mindset and the wow of a product. This tendency blinds you of the products faults. It’s always important to review tech for what it is and the bang for your buck.

Not sure if you’re being facetious, if not, what part of “wireless” escapes you?
I think those people prefer to call themselves “businessmen” instead of scalpers, but let’s face it, scumbags is a more accurate description.
Lol
Hey they are only scumbags if thry sell medicine like that, if we want to buy a ps5 or airpods max one the day it is released or in peak season at any cost? Is that their flaw? Aren't we encouraging them, if we don't buy there will be huge losses to them and they don't dare to do that again. But wait we want that on this Christmas only. At any cost. If apple can sell wheels for 999$ that and scalpers are also consumers fault. If we don't buy they don't sell.
Iam saying all of this, because they became scalpers because we made them to, so the blame is on us. The nvidia 3080 can be bought 5 months later it works just as good as the one bought today. Then why buy immediately at any cost from anyone. Sorry Iam sounding harsh.
@@chinnidiwakar that isnt a good argument since they dont have anything to lose in the first place. they buy as many as they can to make money off others when demand is high, and once supply catches up, they can just sell it at retail price as they just wanted to make a quick scummy buck beforehand. we didnt make them into scalpers, they chose to be dicks
scalpers are just a problem if you let bots buy all the stock. but there are actually people who dont have the time to order and launch and prefer the service of some of these people to get the products they want.
I've for the first time ever had to do the "I'm not a robot" to see a youtube video. this video.
I think google is trying to fight the new wave of bots that have recently been flooding youtube
On iOS in accessibility you can apply "headphone accomodations" which functionally are like a basic EQ. if you get an app that makes an audiogram in the healthkit system you can use that audiogram to correct the audio like a hearing aid, which is effectively seperate EQ for each ear, and you can also turn on transparency mode accomodations which gives you the ability to adjust the bass/trebel, balance, and volume of the passthrough audio if they're anything like airpods pro on iOS

what tonality are you talking about? the tonality an apple engineer decided for you? lol. anc will destroy some of the sound "data" and quality because "noise canceling" cancels some of the frequencies that comes out of the thing. and wireless...
You can use them in wired mode! You need the $35 lightning to 3.5mm cable which will use your external DAC/AMP.
I began reading your comment thinking it was a joke. Boy...

That's freaking horrible
Lmao. I don't think many people even thought about it.
Not really, it’s not like you could hook it up to a giant amp and the headphones are just going to take in the signal and play it passively, it’ll convert whatever you give it into a digital signal, since the lightning port is a digital port, and then you’ll get a re-creation of that analog audio digitally

Underrated comment
Lol xddd
You can actually hard-wire them with a lightning to 3.5mm cable, just FYI.
Can we pin this. Really important point that most reviewers seem to be skipping over.
This....
There’s no usb audio apparently but you can get their 35 bux lightning to 3.5mm.
That is true and it solves some of the situations, but I think the issue with this is that it will still use the headphone’s dac and amp, do you can’t use your expensive and better quality ones.
I want to use mine with midi piano and need the low latency/cable connection. I don't mind the internal dac/amp as it's likely quite nice if it's Apple.
@@zakblue yup, I use my headphones for the same thing, I use both with a audio interface and directly from my digital piano. Still the point that being able to bypass the internal dac still stands, specially for hi-fi audio
So, you can use the lighting to 3.5mm to bypass the BT and use an amp. You’ll want to set the headphones to Max volume and let your amp sit in mid power to avoid using high power mode. BUT this improves dynamics and bitrate
Linus with the beard. Like a boy to man transformation. He even curses more... Love it!
You can actually get a lightning to headphone jack cable on the Apple store to use the headphones wired. This reduces latency, but they still need to be charged to work.
That’s incorrect, you can used it wired when the battery is dead. Mkbhd confirmed in his review
That is incorrect he said you can use it when charging right?
I was wondering about this because my QC35's sound a lot better wired. I was hoping someone would try that to see if that would change things.
Still, you cannot "drive" them with an external dac/amp, which was his point (the cable does ADC and then the headphones work with their own dac/amp as usual, the only thing you bypass is the BT module, or the way you feed the digital signal)
@@DavidFregoli No that wasn't Linus' point. He explicitly said he thought that Bluetooth was the only way to drive the headphones which is wrong. Funny how Linus spends so much time getting every detail of every little random thing right but can't be bothered to do 5 minutes of research on an Apple product. He knows the average viewer of his channel likes when he rips on Apple products so it's OK.

@@MinistryOfMagic_DoM Waste is another thing, but most paper inserts are made out of recycled paper. Aka, paper that instead of being disposed of, was cleaned and reprocessed.
@@NoThrottle First, it still takes water and energy to make that recycled paper, so if it’s a pointless use of paper you *are* still wasting resources on it. Second, recycling isn’t magic: The fibers in paper can only be reprocessed so many times. The more it’s reprocessed, the shorter the fibers get and mean that it can only be used for lesser and lesser grades of paper products. In other words, it’s not just water and energy you’re wasting, you’re also wasting raw materials that could have been put to better use.

Get a pair of Peltor Bluetooth hearing protection thingies, got some for work and the sound in them is impressive, probably not because the sound is actually good but because the hearing protection part makes them super isolated :)
Supposedly you can use a lightning to audio cable to use them wired.
Is there any reason to go with lightening other than selling adapters and being a digbick?
Why? Lightning to audio would butcher audio quality from a good dac amp!
@@sys-administrator you're so wrong... the entire point of wired is to directly connect the drivers to a high-powered DAC. Using lightning would go from analog, to digital and back to analog (all drivers are analog in the end) it's pointless if it's not a direct connection from. The DAC to the drivers.

Linus: paper packing great for the environment. also Linus: throws packing directly on for floor
God please make these SCALPERS cry please that is all I request of u 😂

Please bring in a complete audiophile setup to compare them to in the full review. You know, just to double check the "best audio experience in the world" claim.
I believe the claim was ‘best audio experience in their class’, but Linus doesn’t like to let a little thing like facts get in the way of a rant.
Compare them to other ANC headphones in roughly the same price range. Comparing them to open backed Grade or Sennheisers obviously is pointless, unless you would also ride the bus with that set up (and the external amps needed to drive them).
@@AaronAbernethy I mean to be fair, Apple did not define what /class/ it is. It is a very vague statement. Similar to the M1 chip, they said it is up to 2x faster with PC-mobile chips, but was easily beaten by an AMD Ryzen 5.
@@NoThrottle they said 99% of PC mobile chips.
@@AaronAbernethy "Sounds like an epiphany.
AirPods Max combine high-fidelity audio with industry-leading Active Noise Cancellation to deliver 'an unparalleled listening experience. Each part of their custom-built driver works to produce sound with ultra-low distortion across the audible range. From deep, rich bass to accurate mids and crisp, clean highs, you’ll hear every note with a new sense of clarity."
This what is written in the sound quality section. There no mention of in class.
@@AaronAbernethy more claims directly copy pasted from their site
"Hear every detail
The Apple-designed dynamic driver produces a wide frequency range that uncovers the rich details of every sound - delivering your favourite songs with previously unheard texture and accuracy"
U can increase spund quality in menu for dosabilities. You can edit sound Cleaner or something like this but it works
3:19 Actually Apple is selling a lightning to 3.5 audio Jack cord as an accessory so you can plug it into devices that don’t use Bluetooth. Wish it came included tho..
Gonna buy that, when they finally arrive. Thanks for the heads up
Yeah, but they convert an analog signal, to a digital one and pass them through lightning. So what Linus said is true, you can’t use an external digital to analog converter (dac)
6:32 who else would have loved to hear Linus rant about Apple.
"the best audio experience on the market"
[laughs in beyerdynamics]
or any other good established headphone company. Comes down to preference I guess
I mean he said experience, not just audio fidelity. One advantage that these have over any other headphone OBJECTIVELY, is that they are native to the ecosystem so they tie in on a system level. That's something that a lot of people find life changing. especially with the automatic switching of devices, etc.
@@RiderInRed you know what's native to the eco system? All headphones 😂😂😂
@@Jonnyblacknell not really man. I’m talking about wireless headphones. Guess you might have to use them to know the difference but there really is a big difference
@@RiderInRed I have had Bose QC's, recently upgraded to Sennheiser PXC 550 II's and have owned wireless headphones since about 2008 - every single of one them are "native to eco system" 😂 I'm not sure you actually know what you are saying here..
please try using the apple lightning to aux cable they make with these and an amp, thank you.
5:20 Yep, James finally found that moment in parenthood where (some) kids become drunken mini-arses, it's like having a daily intervention for a while, then it gets better (most cases) and they become mini smart-arses once they learned enough from fooling around unhinged... Kids, you just gotta love them 💕💕...
linus really played more with his hair than with the headphones XD
insta death drinking game: take a shot whenever linus says "whatever the case may be"
If you guys still have the drop pandas, you should add those to the comparison.
Hey Linus, you can use these headphones wired to any device that comes with a 3.5mm audio jack using the Lightning to 3.5mm cable or 1/4" with an adapter if you really wanted to do that.
