As a Apple fan for many years, this year's Apple autumn new product launch conference was not over. I originally wanted to upgrade the iPhone 14 series, but when I saw that the standard version of iPhone 14 has almost no upgrades. Even the iPhone 14 Pro that brought "Lingdong Island" and the screen-off display did not have much surprises. The related application is limited, and the A16 chip is also "squeezing toothpaste". On the contrary, the AirPods Pro 2, which has been updated after 3 years, has aroused my interest. After pre-ordering, I will wait for the goods now.
In the past, I have experienced the AirPods Pro generation of my friend. The noise reduction performance can be said to be very effective now. AirPods Pro 2 is said to have improved the structure and the addition of the H2 chip, and the noise reduction can be increased by 2 times. With the new adaptive transparency mode, I can't wait to experience how magical the noise reduction of this headset is.
Although I didn’t know the actual sound quality and battery life performance when I didn’t get the headphones, with Apple’s excellent R&D strength and H2 chip, it is indeed expected that the battery life will be increased by more than 30% and the sound fidelity is higher as the official said. In addition, what interests me are the details of the AirPods Pro 2, such as the added earbuds, the function of swiping up and down to adjust the volume, and the lanyard hole that can effectively prevent the headphones from being lost.
In my opinion, even if you are not interested in iPhone 14, this AirPods Pro 2 is still worth considering. The upgrade brought by 3 years and 1 more should not disappoint. Moreover, the price this time is 100 cheaper than the first generation, which is still worth the money. However, due to the closed system, AirPods Pro 2 is still recommended for iPhone users. If you are an Android user, many important functions will still be missing. It is also recommended to buy Android TWS headsets.
It is worth mentioning that the noise reduction and sound quality experience of domestic Android flagship headphones in recent years has also been very good. For example, the OPPO Enco X2, which recently released a new color scheme, not only uses SuperDBEE second-generation coaxial dual-unit structure, but also makes efforts in tuning, bringing Danna tuning and Ashishi to master tune, which also makes the sound quality of the headphones more comfortable and natural, and at the same time is more diverse, which can meet the listening needs of different users.
In terms of noise reduction, OPPO Enco X2 is equipped with a three-core noise reduction chip that supports dual active noise reduction. While diving to the deepest depth of noise reduction reaches about 45dB, it also allows effective noise reduction bandwidth to reach 4kHz. In addition, this headset can also support a variety of noise reduction modes for users to switch in different usage scenarios and get the most suitable noise reduction experience for their own environment.
In terms of interactive experience, many domestic TWS headphones are actually at the forefront. For example, the new sliding volume adjustment function added by Apple AirPods Pro 2 has long been in OPPO headphones. Not only that, OPPO Enco X2 also added the function of double-click shooting and more advanced wake-up-free voice command recognition to interact, which is indeed much more convenient to use than Apple.
In addition, unlike the closed ecosystem of Apple's own headphones, through the "Huanlu" App, even if you use OPPO Enco X2 with mobile phones of other brands and systems (including iOS), you can also get a highly consistent functional experience. For example, the personalized pop-up function of OPPO Enco X2, and other Android phones can have a perfect experience by installing the "Huanlu" App. The more open features really make this type of Android TWS headphone experience more friendly.
Of course, if you are an old Apple user and have a relatively abundant budget, the 1899 AirPods Pro 2 is still the first choice. It may also have a longer service time like the first-generation product, but for Android mobile phone users, the choice is much larger. For example, the limited time reduction of 100 in the past few days, and only 799 is available, there are 6 interest-free periods. Moreover, the OPPO Enco X2 is good in terms of sound quality, noise reduction and functional control experience. In short, no matter whether it is Apple or OPPO, as long as it suits you, I believe you will not regret it no matter which one you buy.
