**The New AirPods Pro Plus: A Significant Upgrade**

The latest iteration of Apple's wireless earbuds, the AirPods Pro Plus, has been released to the market with some notable changes. The first thing that stands out is the new ambient sound feature, which allows users to customize their listening experience. Triggering the ambient sound brings up three selection points for ambience: high, medium, and low. This feature can be adjusted to suit individual preferences.

In addition to the ambient sound, the AirPods Pro Plus also introduces touch pad settings, advanced settings for using ambient sound during calls, and a "find my earbuds" feature. These changes are designed to make it easier for users to manage their listening experience. While the overall design of the earbuds has remained largely unchanged, there are some subtle tweaks to the layout.

One of the most noticeable features of the AirPods Pro Plus is its improved battery life. The standard model provides 11 hours of playtime, while the charging case offers an additional 22 hours of power. In contrast, the original AirPods Pro provide only 6 hours of playtime with the standard model and 13 hours with the charging case. This significant increase in battery life makes the AirPods Pro Plus a more viable option for those who need to listen to music or take calls for extended periods.

Another notable feature of the AirPods Pro Plus is its improved bass representation compared to the original model. Additionally, the ambient sound has been tweaked to improve fidelity and provide a clearer audio experience. These changes are likely to please fans of the original AirPods Pro who were looking for an upgrade.

One of the most interesting aspects of the AirPods Pro Plus is their wireless power share feature. Enabling this feature allows users to charge their earbuds while listening to music or taking calls. The result is a seamless and convenient listening experience. This feature alone makes the AirPods Pro Plus an attractive option for those who want to stay connected on-the-go.

**The Magic of Wireless Power Share**

Wireless power share is one of the most innovative features of the AirPods Pro Plus. Enabling this feature allows users to charge their earbuds while listening to music or taking calls. The result is a seamless and convenient listening experience. This feature alone makes the AirPods Pro Plus an attractive option for those who want to stay connected on-the-go.

In our testing, we found that wireless power share was a game-changer. We were able to charge our earbuds while still enjoying high-quality audio, making it easy to take calls or listen to music without interruption. The combination of this feature with the improved battery life and bass representation makes the AirPods Pro Plus an excellent option for those who want a premium listening experience.

**A Test of the Soda Pop Speaker**

In response to viewer requests, we decided to test the soda pop speaker, a device that connects to any bottle and provides enhanced sound. We started by testing the original sprite bottle to see if there was any noticeable difference in audio quality compared to the official sprite cans. While there were some subtle differences, it became clear that the soda pop speaker was not significantly better than the official cans.

However, when we tested a 2-liter sprite bottle, we noticed that the sound improved slightly. However, as we noted in our testing, the results were inconclusive, and we did not notice any significant improvement with a larger chamber size. We suspect that there are only so many ways to optimize audio quality before it reaches a plateau.

**Conclusion**

The AirPods Pro Plus is an excellent upgrade for fans of the original model. With its improved ambient sound, touch pad settings, and wireless power share feature, this earbud offers a premium listening experience like no other. While the soda pop speaker experiment showed some promise, the results were ultimately inconclusive, and we did not notice any significant improvement with a larger bottle size.

Ultimately, the AirPods Pro Plus is a worthwhile upgrade for anyone looking to take their wireless listening experience to the next level. With its improved battery life, bass representation, and seamless wireless power share feature, this earbud offers an unbeatable combination of convenience, sound quality, and innovation.

and well the ultra and then the flip and it's just it's it's a lot to take in it's so much to take in that there's a product here that kind of went overlooked that's the buds plus supposedly some kind of improvement over the previous version I've selected in s 20 plus to be the companion look at that look how pretty those are together I've also got the old version on the table so we can run a quick comparison so we have 11 hours of playtime triple mics for clear voice calls and Qi compatible wireless charging well that was the cool feature obviously they've been showing it off for a while since the previous version you pop them onto the back of your phone with the reverse wireless charging and the wireless charging Qi compatible on the earbuds of course there's also the AKG affiliation as you can see on the package in fact they they write it on the case as well to remind you if you're unfamiliar with AKG they've been making headphones for you know what somebody looked that up I bet you a kgs been making headphones or at least 50 years but it's probably longer it's a German company 47 think of Sennheiser in the same realm I think we can say that they're at least somewhat happy with the with the output with the final product and because they're putting their badge on it so you notice straight away that the case quite a bit different from the previous version in color look at that combination right there that's a that's a look they went from a matte style plastic to I would say this looks a little bit more premium otherwise the form factor is identical to the previous version of galaxy Bud's you open up the door like this you see the LED on the inside as well each of the earbuds is labeled left and right so you know where to place them the outside of the earbud has the same kind of pearlescent almost color shifting reflective type of look that the phone has if you happen to get the phone in the same color a similar pearl effect but a lot more whites what colors are the new version going to be available in well white blue and black okay so they're listed at twenty bucks more and they do look different actually website so they they had more colors on the old version because they had that yellow so the blue is probably the most exciting you'd expect to see white and black a lot of people upset with Apple that they don't offer more colors out the gate on air pods like Samsung does of course you can spend a fortune you probably shouldn't but you can spend a fortune if you need to have black air pods and have color where paint them and they did a tremendous job if you choose to go that route we have some interchangeable ear tips so one of the benefits here of going with an in-ear style there's these ear hooks and then the actual tips and there's three sizes for each also in a package you have your type C to type a connector to charge these up but you're probably gonna want to use that Wireless charge here you'll want to show off how you can do that alright so I think what we're gonna do here is just do a refresh on the original version of the galaxy bud so I can do a one two comparison so let's pop open these ones first there they are the benefit of the ecosystem much like air pods okay now again it's an Inc ear style so it's going to isolate you from your environment to get this app to go with it it gives you control over the ear buds you can select these different equalization settings your notifications the touchpad on the side maybe most importantly for me you can toggle the ambient sound on and off it's actually feed in external sound into the ear bud so since it is an isolating design you might feel closed off from the world in certain circumstances I talked about this when I looked at these the first time go with like halfway you can sort of hear your surroundings all the way up to having those microphones pump straight in anyway that's cool let's give it a listen I mean look it's not it's not gonna blow your head off they sound good but they're commensurate with the air pods Pro I would say somewhere in that territory it's not blowing you away so I'm gonna put these away and tried a new version now all right we're gonna pair up the plus I would think the apps would look the same but they actually look a little bit different here you trigger the ambient sound here and you have three selection points high medium and low for ambience you have your selection for touch pad settings you have advanced settings for using ambient sound during calls you have to find my earbuds feature so everything's packed in there but they just changed the layout ever-so-slightly fit is basically the same you're talking about 150 bucks it's obviously not as expensive as air Potts pro but I'm just talking about the form factor with the ear tips and fitting it's an in-ear style as opposed to a typical earbud exact same track straightaway in the dynamic setting I would say the bass is a little more bass representation compared to the original version you know what the ambient sound might have some level of improvement to it it's a little there's a little more fidelity to my own voice Jack you want to say something yes interesting if you own the first version you're probably gonna rush out an upgrade considering how much you likely paid for these if there is any sound improvement you know maybe it's a little bit more low end maybe slightly more volume it's not substantial it's not significant but of course it's important to remember the magic trick of either of these earbuds and that happens through wireless power share you just enable that and then we can pop on and you can hear they're charging up you can see there's the orange light and that's a good look I mean you look at that right I mean the combination let's go ask well what he thinks I mean I gotta get the new new you just got to get the new one yeah it's not enough of a price discrepancy so there's two outer mics now instead of one I would say that that makes a difference when I was turning on the ambience especially to max power play time 11 hours versus 6 that's substantial battery life with the charge case 22 versus 13 now they're roughly the same size so did they get tremendously more power efficient three-minute charge for 60 minutes of play Kirk do you even do you agree you probably agree with that well for me it's a fit thing because I mostly listen to music while I'm like running or being active the one thing I really don't like about the air pause is when you're like running or something you can feel them wiggling around you're talked about regular air pods right oh oh it's also one of my canals is bigger than the other or so we're talking about your canals yeah we're talking about my canal but anyway yeah get the plus get the improved battery life shake your head around like Kirk keep your canals to yourself alright so before we go this was heavily requested in a comment section of a previous video we were showing up this little guy the soda pop speaker so many people said a thing that we totally should have done in the video and we thought of but we just we didn't do it in the moment so we followed up because that's what we do we're here for you we listen essentially you connect this to any bottle and you get this enhanced sound so we show this off in the original video and then everybody said hey man what about a glass bottle and maybe more importantly what about a two-liter bottle and it was a great question so we have a 2 liter sprite bottle so that we can come back with those so we can get some more sprite tunes even bigger sprite tunes DJ sprite tunes who I mean yeah that's probably gonna happen now someone's gotta do someone should do that name they might you probably get sponsored by sprite or sprite would be very upset let's do the test real quick we have the original sprite bottle so that we can do an ABC we can do a comparison that's the official sprite toons right there we were all impressed for what it is for what it was and all right next up let's do the glass see if we hear anything different I would say similar but the last one a real one that people had to question about what if you get a much bigger chamber so to be clear this original 500 milliliters this is 2 liters so we're talking about four times the size this base is the same yeah I guess there's only so much output here I don't hear much difference at all by going up to a two liter bottle so there you have it I mean we did the experiment we did it for you but it turns out you're not gonna you're not gonna get anything better of a 2-liter bottle then you are out of a 500 mil if you happen to get one these soda pops it's still very cool but maybe it's a good thing as long as you got one of these you're in good shape no need to go biggerobviously you saw the previous the recent videos on all those new Samsung devices they've been taking over the airwaves of course
