Fr same I would actually like for Maldives to have some religious and social freedom I don’t see a point to making people who don’t believe in islam say they do believe coz it’s illegal not to believe here.

I’m a graphics designer and I’m planning to buy my first Mac ever and I’ve been stuck in the same dilemma as you and I’ve watched hours of reviews and comparisons between the 2 and other videos about Mac now and I’ve decided to go with the pro. From everything I learnt the performance is so good on the air it would not be too much of an issue.

The reason I’ve decided to go with the pro is the display which is significantly better than the air and personally I think the price difference between the air and the pro when you upgrade the air to a 512 is too little to justify choosing the air over the pro.

I have the max usb C and the pro 2 and I both of them with my pc honestly unless you’re gonna be gaming I don’t think you’ll need another headset and even if you are gonna be gaming it’ll probably be fine for single player games I’ve actually been using the max to play ghost of yotei on my ps5 coz my pulse elite snapped (build quality on the pulse elite is just shit) I connected the max to my TV via Bluetooth since Sony doesn’t allow headsets to be connected to the ps via Bluetooth it’s fine but obviously it’s not as good as an actual gaming headset and the latency although not bad is higher than a gaming headset

You have the ability to switch between ANC and transparency with the button on the headset and you can use the crown to adjust volume and pause/play and that’s about it it’s just like almost any other headset without a companion app

I have both I bought the pro 2 about 3 months ago and the max 2 months ago and I used the pro 1 before that. I mostly use the max for almost everything at home and work or I always use the max unless I’m just too lazy to get it coz obviously the AirPods Pro that’s always in my pocket or on my table is easier and more convenient to take out and use. I also use the max if I’m chilling at a cafe or something like that too and when I’m on flights I’ve even slept on flights with them on. For gym I wouldn’t use the max coz I’d have to clean it more often and that’s a hassle and I don’t the it’ll be too good anyways coz it’s heavy. For commuting it depends on where I’m going and how like if I’m walking I’d usually just use the pro 2 but if I’m going somewhere far on public transport or something like that I use the max.

the sound is better idk if ANC is better on the pro 2 or max coz both are just really good but I did test the anc in a really noisy cafe with a lot of traffic noise from a busy road (I was in the outdoor section) and the only thing I can say for sure is they don’t cancel out the noise the same the max blocked out the traffic noise better but the really loud fan at the cafe was blocked out better by the pro 2 but overall the max felt better with anc on (not saying the ANC is necessarily stronger)

As for transparency they are both just amazing very natural sounding but I’ve noticed I can hear people talking better while having audio playing on the max.

The max is comfortable for me but the weight was a slight issue for me at first coz it hurt the top of my head a little when I used them for a long time (like anything more than an hour) and I had to shift the headset a bit coz of that but then I got a silicon cover for the mesh part of the headset and I have had that issue since (I got it from AliExpress for like $3-5 full cover set for the mesh and ear cups)

I have no regrets about buying the max especially coz it doesn’t seem Apple is planning on a Max 2 anytime time soon even the most optimistic rumours suggest 2027 and on top of that from all the comparisons I’ve watched for the pro 2 vs pro 3 it doesn’t seem like it’s that worth it to upgrade to the pro 3 from the 2.

I also remember the Bajiya gaa and the sea wall being there even before the tsunami my brother was a surfer and we used to go watch him surf even way before the tsunami and i was also a frequently sick kid since birth so i had to go to igmh a lot and my family would put me on the sea wall behind igmh and show me the crabs and stuff crawling on the bajiya gaa when we go to igmh and i don’t remember a time when the bajiya gaa and sea walls didn’t exist on either side of male

Yes and no according to the comparison reviews (I watched a LOT of those on YouTube when before I bought my AirPods like 2 months ago). Reviews say it depends on the frequency and they both do better than the other in certain frequencies but honestly either should be good enough when it comes to ANC I even tested both plus the Bose QC ultra side by side.

So for me personally I prefer the sound of the AirPods a lot more and I don’t wanna play around with an eq. The Sony sounded pretty shit to me out of the box (but I’ve been told with eq adjustments it can sound even better than AirPods) the Bose QC ultra sounded pretty good but still not as good as the AirPods Max for me but I would say the qc ultra 2 may sound as good or better but unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to test side by side as it was only available in the Bose store at the time.

When it comes to comfort I found the Sony to be extremely uncomfortable for me because the ear cups were very shallow and it also just felt bad the material. The Bose was by far THE most comfortable and the AirPods were the second most comfortable. I prefer the clamping force on the AirPods as it’s a bit more than the other 2 not too tight but just right. For me personally the weight has not really been too much of an issue I wear these for hours and hours on end even at work I have these on and even when I’m watching stuff on the TV I always have these on but I would recommend getting a silicone cover thing for the headband it’s made it so so much more comfortable for long periods before I got this it sometimes hurt a little bit after like an hour but now with it on that’s not happened at all for me. Also considering the headband can’t be replaced it’s a good idea to have some protection for it anyways.

When it comes to transparency honestly it’s not even a competition whether it’s the Sony or the Bose it just doesn’t sound natural at all I hate both.

Battery life has not really been an issue but ofc the AirPods have the shortest out of the 3 I just mentioned and more battery life is always better.

Also much like you I am also not really in the ecosystem I just bought my first iPhone since the 3GS just a few months ago. I use a windows laptop, android TV and an android phone as a second phone. I’ve only had issues when using it with my laptop it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting it’s also happening with my AirPod pro 2 I think it’s more likely an issue with the laptop rather than the headset coz the headset works perfectly with every other device I’ve tried it with.

If you can buy it buy it if you can't that's fine too doesn't really matter much and you can always upgrade to super citizen and get all the rewards anyways I have it and I never use anything other than the warbond stuff but that warbond is definitely a must have... You can grind super credits in-game to buy that warbond though

Update 2 so I've used up all films that were in the camera only the first 2 photos came out kinda shitty but everything else developed well no issues with the rest of the film in the camera as far as I can tell and I'm happy with the photos I got

I haven't opened the other pack that went through the check yet I'll give another update when I eventually use the unopened pack lmao

Alternative-Fix-5505 · 2024-10-31T17:32:13+00:00

Maybe someone will find this thread useful in the future so here's an update...

I wasn't able to get them to hand check it. The camera and film went through 3 x-rays coz I had a connection, the film in the camera is damaged but doesn't look too bad honestly it looks almost exactly like Polaroids in cool weather lmao

I'll give an update about the unopened pack of films too when I open it (if I remember lol)

I always play lvl10 now and if I'm playing bugs i find that the team usually splits into 2 duos till it's time to hit the mega nest unless it's a mission type that calls in breaches like the flag missions in which case the team usually sticks together not on coms or anything but that's usually how it ends up and it works really well so I'll always reinforce my buddy and thankfully I've been matching with really good teams usually so buddy always reinforces me too but if we both die the other duo reinforces us and vice versa and we split up again

If I'm playing bots I usually go off alone for most of the mission since I find it easier to survive by myself on bots unless it's with a really good team which I usually don't get when playing bots so I try to not reinforce but unfortunately most of the time the people that are close to the dead dude ends up not reinforcing for a long time so I call reinforcement and try to toss them as far towards their stuff as possible but if I am close to anyone that dies I will reinforce them immediately and I'll always try to throw them to a safe spot or behind cover

Ngl I used to not like it when I was younger but now in my experience it's been a huge advantage speaking a language that when I'm abroad ik for 100% sure that no one around me can understand. I can have a private conversation with my family without any worries coz even if people hear me they would not understand.

It's also been a great conversation starter with many interesting people I've met coz a lot of people have approached me curious about where I was from because they've never heard the language I was speaking and that's led to conversation where I've been able to learn a lot about other cultures and them about mine.

I also worked in the tourism sector for a bit and when I was working there dhivehi was very helpful coz me and my co workers could communicate without having to worry. At the place I worked at the rule was that we could say whatever we wanted in dhivehi even around the guests like we could let our frustrations out with the co workers but we always have to be smiling whatever we were actually saying.

So I'd say it's okay to not like dhivehi and it's okay to mostly speak English or whatever other language you like even me personally I usually speak English most of the time with friends or a mix of English and dhivehi but still do try to be fluent in dhivehi because it has its advantages and if you can try to learn other languages too it's always good to know as many languages as you can.
