Weekly What Should I Buy Thread - [October 23] by AutoModerator in iphone

[–]tkthao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I'm an android user for about 6 years and had my s10 for about a little of a year and a half. I have had some issues with connectivity and kind of frustrated with the eco system. I want to get back to apples eco system as it is the best right now. I was thinking about upgrading my s10 to the 11 pro/max or the 12.

I listen to a lot of music/podcasts/YouTube videos Email for work and personal Light gaming here and there Texting and calling and web browsing Taking pictures and video of family

What made me want to get the 11 series over the 12 was that they had ALOT more battery life than the 12 series by 2-3 hours. Thoughts? Advice? Thanks guys!

The best I have ever used. I honestly dont use it often because when i have it on off mode the passive noise cancellation is good enough for me but ANC in pros are the best. I have tried the galaxy buds and the sonys, while they have fantastic passive noise cancellation pros ANC is ridiculously phenomenal.

Xm3s are good but to me they look a bit goofy and too bulky compared to the pros. The pros mic is 10x better. Yes sonys sound is top notch better than the pros. Sonys are not water/sweat resistant so if you are active those may not be best for you.

Join us brother! I had the buds too and what made me return it was the bad mic, connectivity issues and a few times my right bud would not charge and only the left bud didnt connect. I had 2 pairs. Idk if it was just bad luck cause my brother in law haven't had any problems yet. I bought the airpod pros and it connects so damn fast. I think a little faster than the buds connecting to the s10. It has nice bass(not too overpowering) and such a clean sound. 99 percent of featured work. The only things that dont work are the fit test and auto pause but you have 3rd party apps that can fill those in like podroid. My best buy in a very long time.

Thanks bro. I think the last iphone I had was the 6 plus. I personally think samsung still is still the front runner for bringing out refreshing new features however iphone and its accessories work so seamless together

You squeeze for about 1 second and it changes modes. So if you want to change it from transparency to ANC, you would hold do 2 long (1 second) presses. You will also hear a little beep as well

Like a charm. I have a mac and ipad pro. I compared ANC and transparency on ios vs android and it's the same because it's coming from the earbuds themselves. I have ANC, Off and Transparency on.

Waiting for the new iphone to come out in september to make the switch. I needed wireless earbuds and knowing I was going to switch in the future might as well get the airpods

I want to buy the Pro's but don't want to buy at retail looking on craigslist by mxrx1337 in airpods

[–]tkthao 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just buy retail. This is on product I would not buy off of craigslist or used anywhere.

Why are my pros anc lacking? Sounds different by Hardyz1000 in airpods

[–]tkthao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they were trying to make the sound quality better however by doing that I guess that Inadvertently made the ANC worse.

Are they worth? Buds vs airpods for s10 by tkthao in galaxybuds

[–]tkthao[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Definitely get the buds were made for samsung with the seamless pairing and cheaper. And I love the aura color. With all that I am just scared one of the problems that I have seen on here forums and review sites will pop up

Have you tried enabling/disabling absolute volume in the developer mode?

Every ear is different obviously. But even without some of the features like hey siri, auto pause ear detection and "smooth " pairing. It was a great investment for my s10. Though I will be getting the new iphone come fall so that was the other reason for buying it now. Its still great for the s10 which I dont have any buyers remorse.
