AirPods Pro 2 Android User Review | What works, what doesn't, and are they worth it?

Sadly, they do not. Missed that in the review. I will pin this to inform others.

[@amirtorhan2762]

I use them with my Android phone, iPad and Macbook and honestly there is really no difference for me, in fact the ability to completely customize the eq on any pair of headphones make them sound even better on my Android. The one downside is the fact that you can't really tell the battery like you can on ios, but there are some 3rd party android apps that could fix this. I personally have don't use any of all the fancy features, I just use the regular adaptive noise control, anc, and transparency which you can control right from the buds. So unless you are looking to use things like spatial audio with head tracking, I do recommend these earbuds even for Android users as I believe they are one of the best if not the best overall earbuds on the market. But I do think you would need access to at least one iOS/mac device that you can use to set up all the settings with (this is only a one time, after that all the settings will be saved).

[@RandoTechInfo]

I agree, you really don't lose much when you pair them with an Android device. Thanks for sharing!

First off, long live the OP7 Pro. Great phone. Just retested it with my S22 Ultra and it still works. (One quick click pauses and another restarts.) Try holding down on one of the buttons and see if it toggles ANC and transparency mode off and on, that should at least let you know if it's a hardware issue.

Spacial audio does kinda work on android. With apple music and a phone supporting dolby atmos (most androids nowadays) it does work . But head tracked spacial audio isn't available. And one more thing, updating the airpods pro on android is impossible and requires an iPhone to do so

[@khanscombe619]

Lot of good points. I used both iPhone Pro Max & Note Ultra w/ each AirPods Pro & Galaxy Buds2 Pro Mix & match as needed But I favour the AirPods especially for calls in a 1 ear usage. Louder, clearer & they hear me better as well. I disabled auto switching anyway as it becomes a pain in a busy room full of your other Mac stuff & trying to multi device.

[@khanscombe619]

Additionally, I like that AirPods offers single ear at a time Transparency. I can't find it on Galaxy S23 Ultra w/ Galaxy Buds2 Pro. Can they?

[@Jasondranoff]

Do you think the ANC is better on the Buds Pro 2 or the Apple pro 2?

[@xxc0pE89xx]

If you have an apple product or access to one you can set some of the setting and have them carry over to android.

[@chaitanyaponnada199]

I do have an M1 macbook air and I'll get my airpods pro 2 in a week and i do use an android phone. What should I do in an order? 1)Get it paired to mac and change settings and then pair it with my Android? 2)Also i would be getting free 6 months trail of apple music. Can that trail only be accessed if i pair it with iPhone? And can I access spatial audio sound tracks on apple music browser on Mac. 3)Also does Netflix or Disney etc play spatial audio with head tracking from Mac browser? Does any title with Dolby Atmos can help in spatial audio. Please do revert. Great video btw.

[@RandoTechInfo]

1. Yes, I would pair with the Mac 1st , however, you may need to turn Bluetooth off on the Mac before you can get it to pair to the Android phone. 2. I am not sure how the Apple music trial is activated, but I would think once it is activated, it would work on all devices. I do not own a Mac so I cannot say whether special audio will work with a Mac or not. 3. I do believe Spacial Audio should work with all Dolby Atmos titles, that said, once again I'm not sure about the Mac. Hopefully someone with a Mac sees this comment and drop some knowledge on us. Thanks for watching!

If I were to buy a refurbished iPhone to get all the features of these buds, what is the oldest model I can get and which iOS would I need? (great video!)

I've been using Android for years, my last iPhone was the iPhone 8 plus, i love Android but i can't deny the fact the Air Pods Pro 2 are the best wireless earbuds ever!

[@RandoTechInfo]

They are good but I do prefer the sound profile on some newer buds like the Nothing Ears and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, but there is no doubt the Air Pod Pros are still class leading when it comes to noise and touch controls, and those things work fine no matter what device you are paired with, which is great for people like you and me who mix and match ecosystems.

[@MrSlowestD16]

Are the long press settings saved to the pods or the OS? It's annoying that the long press doesn't do all 3 - "OFF" is nice because it allows natural sound dampening of the pods, which is quieter than transparency mode, but not full noise cancellation, which can be a hazard in public. I have iOS devices or my wife does or whatever, so if it's saved to the pods I can connect quick with that, enable it, and then use it with my Pixel. The things you don't get are pretty small, IMO. $250 is still steep, but it's steep even for iOS where everything works - it's simply expensive. But I love how well the noise cancellation works. I am skeptical about long term charging though, as my wife's gen 2 airpods stopped charging after 1 or 2 years due to connection problems with the case. If these last 5 years I'm fine, 1 or 2 and I'd be pissy.

[@RandoTechInfo]

i'll have ipad pro m2, i have macbook pro m2, and samsung galaxy s20fe 5g phone so like can I use it perfectly fine on apple devices even if it is also used by android device ?

[@RandoTechInfo]

Yes, although because there is no multipoint paring, it might be tricky getting it to come back to the non iOS devices, since those devices will probably get priority.

[@timothydavis9032]

AirPods Pro 2. I have an iPadPro and I can pair it with my AirPodsPro. But those don't have the hearing aid test or hearing aid feature. I keep the iPadPro at home. So the question is, "I know I can set up the AirPods Pro 2 with the iPadPro at home. But I have an Android Phone. Can I wear the AirPods Pro 2 and use them as hearing aids after I leave the house and am out of range of my iPad Pro?" I'm thinking of buying a pair of AirPodsPro 2 just to test my hearing and use them if the test says they will help. I do have decreased comprehension in my right ear, and I haven't had a professional hearing test for that yet, but I'm reading that hearing aides might or might not help. I do have a professional hearing test scheduled in January. I like the idea of AirPods Pro 2 INSTEAD of hearing aides when I'm out and about. I think there would be LESS stigma. So many people have AirPods in that I think I'd just look like one of the crowd.

[@RandoTechInfo]

This was an interesting question and I just tested it. And I can confirm that even when my iPhone is turned off the hearing assistant features all still work. So if you set up the air pods with the iPad at home they will still work as hearing aids when you leave the house. Furthermore, the hearing aid feature continued to work after I paired the pods to an android phone. So you can use them for hearing aids and calls and media when you are out and about. Hope this helps!

[@bhargavvenn]

Do they automatically reconnect when taken out of the case?

+Will the hearing aid feature work?

[@RandoTechInfo]

It will work with an Android phone but you would have to set it up with an iPhone first. And you would have to keep going back to the iPhone it's paired with anytime you would want to make any adjustments. So technically the answer to your question is "yes", although I would probably not recommend it.

The new Pixels are reviewing well. Sony makes good phones if you have the money and like granular control of your camera work and OnePlus is good if you want a solid phone with fast charging. You can't really import phones right now because you won't get good reception on US carrier networks.

Hello, i need your opinion as airpods pro 2 and galaxy buds pro 2 user. Im mixed os user - im using pc with windows, mostly ios phone (now, but im thinking about going back to android) and android phone for work. Now im using normal buds 2 from samsung and they are ok, but im looking for better sounding earbuds with better anc. Im using them a lot (4-5 hours a day) + for sleep while transport. Usually i dont eventually touch apps for earbuds (like here on galaxy buds). I can get airpods pro 2 on discount for 250$ Galaxy buds pro 2 for 125$ Sony wf1000xm5 for 250$ Or maybe I should conciser something else? Btw I had bose qc2 and sold them - they had problem with wind noise on public transport.

[@RandoTechInfo]

At those prices I would probably go with the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. The Galaxy buds will give you better sound and almost as good ANC and hear through modes. I can't comment on the Sony's because I haven't used them but I've heard they're very good.
