Reasons why I hate or don’t like AirPods Pro

I feel in love with my AirPods Pro and each day I was surprised about its technical marvel in such smaller design. However, there are few things that I do not like in AirPods Pro, and I wanted to detail the same in this blog post. Following are the things that I do not like in AirPods Pro.

• Support for older Macs: Even-though AirPods Pro connects with older MacBook Pro’s like 2012 models, the features are limited and lack auto connectivity feature. So, while I watch movie or videos in MacBook Pro and suddenly, I get a call on my iPhone, the AirPods Pro does not switch to my iPhone automatically. I understand that I can take calls in my Mac through same Wi-Fi network and sometimes when I attend call through Mac, the call quality was poor and there was huge delay in audio. 
• Unwanted Noise-cancellation feature while taking calls: Noise cancellation feature in AirPods Pro was one of the unique and stand-alone option among other similar headphones. However, while taking calls with noise cancellation feature was turned on, your voice might be too loud without knowing how loud your voice was and sometimes the voice seems to be too low for the person in other end of the call. So, AirPods Pro should have an in-built option to turn-off noise cancellation feature while taking phone calls. 
• Lack of spatial audio content and limited availability: AirPods Pro support spatial audio and Apple demonstrated the feature using Apple TV+. However, it has been more than a year since the feature was launched and the spatial audio option was limited only to Apple TV+ till now. There were rumours that other OTT platforms would also adopt spatial audio, and none has adopted for a long time. Due to this, I have not been using spatial audio feature in Airpods Pro and at time forget that such feature exists.

Why I prefer getting MacBook and MAC operating system

For a long time, I was thinking to replace my old MacBook Pro and find new one that can hold for a long time. The most important thing that is stopping me from getting new laptop is the pricing from Apple. Even though Apple charges premium price for its products, the pricing was justifiable for the following reasons

• Reliability and quality: The finishing of the Apple products was always top notch, and the reliability cannot be compared with any other Laptop in its category. Example: If Apple promises that battery will perform better till its reaches 500 cycles, then users can be sure of its performance till the committed baseline and sometimes even exceeding the standards 
• Operating system: Mac operating system is one of the best and it performs all tasking thrown at it with ease. One more interesting thing I like about Mac operating system is that I am a normal laptop user and will not do much work other than browsing, movies and office productive works. With this usage, I do not even care about installing separate anti-virus software and I will also be cautious about clicking links and in-built alerts from operating system. 
• RAM management: Another important thing I link about using Mac operating system is that I do not need to clear up my RAM manually and all the processing is taken care by the core operating system.

Completely blown away by Airpods Pro quality

I was planning to get AirPods Pro headphone for a long time and with the introduction of the latest spatial audio feature, it was even more attractive for aiding or into he shopping wish-list. The only thing which was stopping me to get the product was its pricing and not many discounts available in any of the shopping portals. While I was waiting for any offer on the product, my uncle took the bold step of getting the product at its MRP and feel its sound quality & charm. Since my uncle requested my help, to set it up and ensure Bluetooth connection across devices, I was able to feel the sound quality and its exclusivity. I was impressed by its sound quality and effectiveness of connection across the Apple ecosystem, now I am completely convinced of getting the AirPods Pro and was just holding off for any offers in the upcoming festive season sale. I also wanted to reveal heads-up about its outcome and I finally bought the product but was unable to get the iPhone first. To know more, please check out the blog posts in G R Team Sites.
