    So how’s the mic pickup when you use the AirPods on an iphone? If I understand it correctly, you demonstrated it without the iPhone mic isolation feature. This is IMO not a fair comparison as it is reasonable-ish to assume that an AirPods user has an iPhone. It will be more often true than not

    I was quite stunned at the Nothing's performance with wind, the microphone sounds best on Airpods, but with all that wind noise it didn't matter so much. BTW, you can share audio on Samsung and now Pixel devices too. We've been listening to music on my S22 because she has an Iphone and cannot share with me, but I can connect her and my headphones.

      @nyx92901 Před 2 dny

      Well comparatively speaking nothing with anc on can last up to 6 hours and half, where wf1000xm5 7 hours.
      This both using AAC codec and connect via laptop.
      However Nothing case fast charging is something else, 20 minutes in you can already get up to 60% battery life

    It's good to have compared these Nothing Ears to the Airpod Pro 2 and Sony Xm5, but I would have preferred to see them opposite the OnePlus Buds 3, Soundcore Liberty 4 NC, Realme Buds 5 Pro...
    Ps: I'm not a fan of Apple, but it would be good next time to use the ambient noise reduction option of the iPhone during the call test in a noisy environment of the Airpods.

    For anyone watching this in 2024-
    Owned both Sonys and AirPod pro 2 and a iPhone user.
    The whole ecosystem argument is silly imo, rather than having an app you just have the features in settings. I prefer the app layout and there are more features for the Sony. The only one up the AirPods have is the find me feature.
    The Sonys (with azla max) are also more comfortable and provide a better seal Than the AirPods although they are still comfortable. AirPods standard tips are better than the Sony.
    ANC- not even close Sonys are the clear winner. AirPods are poor at blocking out voices.
    Mic quality - both not great but from testing, Sony has the edge
    Sound quality - again not even close Sony sounds significantly better especially with the ability to have custom eq. The airpods have very poor base and I found the sound empty. Sony provide rich and full sound with really good base and crisp vocals.
    Battery - similar quoted battery life but Sony win, AirPods have random battery life with always one pod running out of charge at least 30 mins before the other.
    I still have both products but honestly if Sonys are a 9.5 then AirPods are an 8 at best.
    Hope this helps

    I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and I have to get a pair for work and I'm undecided between the Nothign and the AirPods, I like the bass of the Nothing but they seem to have a lower volume than the AirPods Pro 2, furthermore the AirPods have a sharper excellent vocal. do you think that by eliminating the bass from the new feature it will be possible to obtain the same result as the airpods pro 2? because if that were the case it would be really good to consider nothing ears, I would change this setting based on the song I will listen to.

      ​@@xruud24- So what or who are you a "Fanboy" of??
      Or don't you like anything on this planet??
      If you like something or someone, does that automatically make you a "Fan"??
      What is the definition of a "Fanboy" anyway??
