[@CRAZYWHITEBOY87]

Had given some thought about maybe purchasing a set of AP4’s (ATC) after your review tho I’m on the fence about picking up another pair AP’s. I’ve got the AP2 Pro’s & don’t have any fitment issues until (like you said) I’m inside of the gym working out & the sweat does allow my AP2 Pro’s to (If this makes any sense) back outta my ears not allowing that tight comfortable I’m not going to loose one feeling. Anyway for anything & everything Apple related your my guy, my video search on KZbin was airpods4 Brandon butch lol been a subscriber to your show four or five years now & you’ve never let me down. From how I operate my iPhone & which settings are best turned on or turned off to my next Apple iPhone/airpod purchase. So I’d to thank you for what you do the time you spend finding out those details that were to busy or simply not knowledgeable enough to run across. Thank you Brandon. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you & yours.

[@rherteux]

For everyday use, like Brandon, I prefer the AP4 (with noise cancellation) over the APP2. Now the only time I use the APP2 is when I mow the lawn or vacuum because the noise cancellation is better. I just find the AP4 to be more comfortable and don't fall out of my ears as much as the APP2 did when I'm working out in the yard.

[@SquattingHen]

This 100%. I have both as well, and the 4’s are now the ones I pickup the most. I save the pros for flights and maybe yard work, but the pros always come loose and have fallen out numerous times. The 4’s don’t ever do that for me.

[@JayEs31]

Yes, same here. Totally agree. And cancellation of background noise and wind when speaking with someone on the AirPods4 and Pro2 is nothing short of AMAZING!

[@jun_suzuki42]

The AirPods Pro 2 was on sale online earlier on, and the price difference between AirPods 4 were so minimal I immediately got the Pro 2 instead.

[@wizerdjuice9589]

Exactly

[@trap8776]

The AirPod PRO 2 are definitely better than the 4’s.

[@Hiddeny.2044]

It’s the rubber tip that most of us hate.

[@luongbachnguyen155]

The argument isn’t whether the Pro2s are better (they are supposed to be!), but it’s the silicone tips that a lot of us can’t bare.

[@Fomogarage]

@@Hiddeny.2044I actually prefer the rubber tip on the pros, I feel like most people who get them also do, because they provide a lot better seal.

[@stevey3100]

I just picked up AirPods 4 with ANC yesterday and I love them I like to hear my surroundings when traveling more move about so they perfect and case of size Is great nice and sleek looking.

[@BrandonButch]

Nice! Yes, that's where the 4's thrive. The light & small case is a nice bonus!

[@jj5106]

I've just tested out my new airpods 4 with a walk down shop, I totally love them. Thank god I paid the anc, it's the best part and blocks out very well. I am totally amazed, everything sounds silky smooth it's wonderful. Highly recommended

[@Bruceneuman]

I have both. Both terrific. I do miss the volume control on the 4. Buy both.

[@BrandonButch]

That was my conclusion in the video haha. They're oddly complimentary to one another

[@Bruceneuman]

And I listened to your review on my AirPod Max. I guess I should be institutionalized. By the way, you are terrific at what you do. At 70, I can barely keep up with you, but it is worth it.

[@BrandonButch]

@@Bruceneumanappreciate that! 🙏

[@briuhn]

Totally agree.. Airpods4 for day to day… around town… Pro 2 for working out and flights (if you dont have AirPod maxes)

[@MarkBurdickPhD]

Spoken like a true Apple stock owner

[@jamesfhIII]

With the amount of podcasts and audiobooks people listen to these days, I’m surprised how few reviewers mention the quality of spoken audio. The AirPods 4 have superior quality in the regard, which surprised me. Ergo, in a quiet environment or one with minimal ambient noise, AirPods 4 are better for podcasts/audiobooks.

[@growth_with_nick]

🎶I’ve used the pros and pro 2s for several hours a day since the pros came out. 🎧Tried the 4s for a few hours yesterday. My thoughts below: - They fit alright but I kept feeling they’re going to fall off. Right ear fit was looser, less sealed / good than left. Was a bit weird, and can’t fix since no silicon sizes - The sound is really good. Little bit less sound stage ‘space for all the different noises to occupy?’ If that makes sense. Little less ‘vibrate-y’ bass, but all quite punchy - sssick transparency mode. Slightly better than pro 2s - ANC was incredibly impressive. Somewhat worse overall than pro 2s, and took like a second to adjust using the H2 chip when I moved them around in my ear or just gently bumped them to adjust them bc i felt they’ll fall out (which they didn’t, I tested headbanging etc). They sorta suppressna few less frequencies and it’s a different flavour of ANC… but they remind me of the Sony XM5s which I own for a while. Really really good. - Don’t forget the sensor for when they’re not on and to stop playing music… is optical on the 4s… so it’s a bit derpy. You hold it / have in your palm / desk and if the sensor sees any of that it starts playing. I personally would spend the $50ish for the Pro 2s any day, given the fit and silicon work for you. Many more features, much better find my, etc. But despair not - if you dread silicons or the pro fit… these are really really good. If they fit yo ears

[@451greenwood]

My wife AirPods 4 and I have the pro….. my findings are the pro are better sounding,better battery,better ANC,and more importantly for me they fit better, price wise the pro was $20 more and I think they are better for me,and now we have the boost in conversation like hearing aids….something AirPods 4 don’t have.... However hearing aid is still not available in the UK 😥 but hopefully soon

[@NileshParmar]

I am coming from owing the Airpods 3. I now went to the Airpods Pro 2 for the same price as the 4's from Amazon, during their sale. Made more sense. I did try the Airpods Pro 2 before purchasing, i must say it was better in noisey environments. Great video and testing.

[@meekopal2369]

The lack of volume control on AirPods 4, a feature in AirPods Pro 2, makes upgrading unnecessary.

[@Metalmachine18]

Have the Pro 2's, wouldn't consider changing or getting the 4's in addition to(if you're not a reviewer why would you get 2 pairs lol?). They just seem like 75% of what you get with Pro 2's

[@OllyOConor]

15:02 literally the exact moment I have been waiting for in any video re AirPods 4 - great video all round, but super relevant for me 😅

[@TrafalgarL4wyer]

Love the AP4 with ANC. Upgraded from my AP pro 1st gen. Also, the AP4 case doesn’t stick to MagSafe because the case is too small to exceed width of MagSafe ring, NOT because the magnets aren’t strong enough.

[@Ndozio]

What’s the difference in sound quality and noise cancellation mode between them? I have airpod pro 1st gen and they’re always slipping out

[@chrisvolt]

i wanted to go for AP4 but not sure if they would fit

[@chrisvolt]

so i brought the APP2

[@Bmarker299]

Outstanding Review, as usual. I also love my new AP4s and wear them all the time. The only time I wear the AP2 is when I am on the treadmill and want to block out the noise from the treadmill. AP2 makes my ears itch, while AirPods 4 do not and are more comfortable. I also like the small case. Compared to any other airpods, I barely notice the AP4's case in my pocket.

[@BrandonButch]

Thanks! Good to hear you had a very similar experience!

[@MJV150]

I have the first gen AirPod pros and I’ve been considering upgrading but unsure which ones to get. The AirPod pros, for me at least, don’t fit as well as I’d like. They keep sliding out. I love the idea of the AirPod 4s but unsure whether the ANC on them will be as good or better. Would love your opinion on comparing the first gen AirPods Pro and the new AirPod 4’s.

[@josenoevargas]

I just went to the apple store and I am torn between either. The Airpods 2 pro are better than the 1st gen. They are lighter and fit better. Im leaning towards the airpods 2 because they are much more comfortable, but I did find myself using the original airpods more before upgrading. I may buy the pros 2, and if i dont use them daily, ill probably return then and get the 4s.

[@MJV150]

@@josenoevargas I think I’m just going to wait another year and see what the Pro 3s do. I’m still happy with my AirPod pro 1st gen’s, the only bugbear for me is constantly pushing them back in my ears but I’ve got used to that action now, it’s almost an involuntary action.

[@josenoevargas]

@@MJV150 that’s my problem. I had the original AirPods 1st gen and I used them 24/7. I upgraded to the pros and I felt like they kept slipping and stopped using them. Even with the different tips. I doubt the pros 3 will be coming soon. Maybe late 2025z

[@BobMcBurger1]

Looking forward to the Pro 3 whenever it comes out. Wish it was this year.

[@tobiasheath529]

After cleaning my airpods pro 2, I started getting this unbareable high pitched sound mixed with static. They could play music, but they would make my ears hurt in the process, so I have taken them in to an authorised service provider of Apple, who say they should have a replacement ready by next week. It's such a pity. They have worked so well most of the time, but every six months or so they have been taken to Apple due to the need of a deep clean, given that the noise features stop working. If anyone happens to know some way of stopping this, that would be so good. I am just questioning whether I should get these fours just because I may no longer have this issue, but the volume swipe, slightly better sound quality, skin detection, hearing features and such are things I really don't want to lose.

[@fallis07]

Why are your ears so filthy?

[@InimitaPaul]

My first gen Pro’s did that high pitch and static noise thing after cleaning, that was during Covid and Apple wanted the price of the pods to take them in to be looked at so I didn’t bother. I’ve refused to buy Apples earbuds since, when a simple cleaning does that to such expensive earbuds it’s a no no from that point on for me.

[@tobiasheath529]

@@InimitaPaul I can appreciate that. I was on the verge of buying some wired ear buds instead, but they didn't charge me for the repair. Apple have finally released a detailed method to deep clean airpods, and in fairness, it uses things you wouldn't normally think of. No mention of Alcohol or whatever when wiping the meshes, just mysolar water, then a clean with distilled. I had never heard of such a method. I am going to wash my tips once a week going forward, so hopefully this will help in not having to do deep cleans every six months or so...

[@narutoninjagoandtheflashar4256]

@@tobiasheath529 I have a once a week cleaning routine for my AirPods. Ever since getting these, I told myself that I’m gonna keep them super clean 🧼. Unlike before where I didn’t even bother cleaning my 2nd generation AirPods until like 6 months or so 😂. Yep! NEVER again 🤮🤦🏼‍♀️. In fact, I can’t even let the 4s get dirty to THAT point. Because unlike the 2nd gen AirPods, these have the special features such as anc and transparency mode. And to let them get THAT dirty would ruin the features. Meaning they won’t function properly. So yeah! Also, less cleaning needed if you clean them once a week. Work smarter. Not harder! Am I right 😉

When are the AirPod Pro threes coming out?

[@ButchiRC]

I bought my wife the pro2, she was surprised about the noise cancelling feature, i tried it myself, in the public places where its noisy and wow, shocked how almost no noise can be heard, played music and no need to max out the volume, 50 percent is enough. I want to buy myself one too 😂

[@60beats44]

I have gone a step further and had a tiny chip implanted righ next to my right ear with a thin wire travelling under the skin of my chin to the left side of my head. This makes listening to my music during workouts, shopping and gym visits so much more convenient. The battery is recharged whilst lying on my pillow at night. The surgery cost a bit of money but totally worth it as I find it difficult nowadays to function during the day (and most of the night) without a constant music soundtrack playing.

[@kenbiro8485]

That's a good question. I have a pair of the Pro 2s, but I do have a moderate hearing problem, so I'm using the new update to the Pro 2s as an over-the-counter hearing aid. If at some time Apple decides to do the same to the AirPods 4 then I might consider buying a pair.

[@zizzie4081]

I upgraded from 2 to 4 and had my doubts about the noise cancellation. You don't realize how really good it is until you turn it off. even if you are just using one pod.

[@happiness7808]

Opposite for me. Pros fall out, especially left side, but the 4’s (and old AirPods 1/2) don’t. Main reason I use the 4’s as my primary and keep the pros for flights.

LOVE the real world testing footage and nice red shorts! :) For me personally I am LOVING The AirPods 4 w/ ANC so much having come from the original Pros. The Pros were NEVER comfortable for me, I only kept em around because the sound and ANC was so good. Now that the ANC is as good as it is with AP4, and they are so much lighter and more comfortable in my ears, I'm gonna be wearing these WAY more often.,

[@TheRobloxDogeHQ]

Currently have AirPods Pro 1st gen, and I’ve had them for almost 3 years, and one issue I have with them is they make a weird noise on ANC and transparency mode, but not on the normal off mode. I went to the Apple Store to try to get them fixed and the cost to fix it was $179 😅. Definitely going to get AirPods 4 with ANC whenever they are on sale at Costco or Amazon, since I’m not in a rush to buy them. AirPods Pro fit me fine, but they definitely aren’t the most comfortable for my ears. The classic OG wired EarPods were very comfortable for my ears, and the 4’s are like a throwback to that design

Not gonna lie I love the AirPods 4 yes the pros are the better ones but personally these are my favorite they fit good sound good the ANC is surprisingly good for open ear headphones i been using them way more than pros

[@BrandonButch]

Facts. I love them A LOT more than I anticipated

[@minimalist1911]

Just pick up the wired 19 dollar earpods. It offers spatial audio and losseless. More than enough! Why bother with buying a wireless earbud which you need to keep charging. They don't last long either.

looking at y'all wearing anything but the pros, I just think "they have blessed ears"

[@anthonysparta2967]

If the pros don’t fit in your ears cause of the tips the 4s with ANC are worth it if you want some AirPods!

[@stigheim]

What about hearingaid

[@AndySchuylerVlogs]

What’s up Brandon? I’m so happy to see you again! How are you, and what are you doing for the weekend?

Is there like silicon eartips be found? Was looking around and only 123. That could be very great in sealing noises and better audio quality

[@-ThatGuy-]

I personally prefer the pros for the rubber tips. Without the rubber tips ANC is basically useless. You can still hear way too much of your surroundings. For me the whole point of earbuds is to not hear anything except the music or podcast.

[@yanmarkosromerofigueroa]

I ordered the AirPods 4 👀 the pro models I got tired cause of the ear tip gives me damaged to my ears

[@KadenBaker-zd5vx]

Me watching this with the AirPod fours

[@ldfjlas]

i dont understand the airpods 4. why not just sell the airpods pro 1 at the price of the 4 with anc. at least they are slightly worse in a way that makes sense. i mean why remove the earplugs? i never buy anything but earbuds with at least the passive noise canceling so I can hear my music without blasting the volume. removing the rubber part just arbitrarily makes them worse so that apple can create another tier. and then maybe sell the old airpods pro without any speakers or anc in place of the cheapest airpods. that way you are getting all the benefits of airpods and the noise cancelling provided by cheap rubber plugs.

[@ccarazay]

Not everyone likes having the silicone tip in their ears

[@CharismaSpencer]

Because a lot of people can’t wear earbuds with the tips.

[@ldfjlas]

@@CharismaSpencer i haven't bought any without tips in 10 years. it is cheap and effective noise cancelation. using earbuds without tips is a good way to go deaf.

[@CharismaSpencer]

@@ldfjlas they literally won’t stay in my ears, they slip out within a minute. Some people just physically can’t wear them. Also how would no tips make you go deaf? Lmao. If anything the tips would cause more hearing loss since you’re getting less sound escaping.

[@ldfjlas]

@@CharismaSpencer because you are forced to blast the volume to drown out the sounds in the environment. btw they include smaller and larger tips for different size ears.

[@archiewerkie3985]

I prefer some anc to full anc. I like to stay connected to the world.

[@OG_Zlog]

The "skin" sensor isn't really a skin sensor. It cant tell if it is in a pocket or in an ear. It just looks for the reflection of IR light bouncing off of a material.

[@Bai-Hui]

It's called a proximity sensor genius

[@sand-and-asmr]

Best review

[@timothyoutman7427]

I have and love both.

[@AwesomeAustn]

I have the first AirPods Pro and after watching this, I may prefer the AirPods 4.

[@randomvideos2090]

I had AirPods Pros (first gen) but they broke on me and now I have the standard model of the AirPods 4 and for me the sound quality is way better than on the Pros (first gen)
