Beats X Wireless vs Apple AirPods!

2017-02-09
here guys Johnson here and these are the brand new beats X Wireless so before we hop in let's talk ear pods those have been out for a couple months now I really enjoyed them but now's the beat XY us here feel they stack up side by side so with that question the first thing we got to compare is price Apple earpods come in at 159 whereas the beat X wireless or 10 bucks cheaper so as far as cash goes they are pretty spot-on now as far as what you get in the box from the airport side of things you get the case which also charges the air pods the air pods themselves some literature you might not see it at first glance but deep inside the packaging is a lightning cable now as far as the beats go you get two beats X wireless a carrying case which does not provide any kind of charge you all ever get customizable ear tips so just in case these don't fit you can swap them out and in turn get a better fit in your ear just like the air pods you also get a lightning cable unlike the air pause so when you pick up a pair of Beats X wireless you get a code for three months of free alpha music which I'm going to flash in three two one now just like the air pods the beat X wireless feature apples w1 chip so pairing is stupid simple for the beats you simply hold the power button with them next year iPhone and icon is going to pop up you can connect and that is it also like the air pods beat X Wireless also feature I cloud connectivity what that means you can instantly switch back and forth from say your iPhone to your Mac now the air pods one of my favorite features was the Apple watch integration which is hands-down my favorite way to control them with the beats X wireless you also get that functionality so the fact that you don't have to sacrifice that is really cool one of the advantages I will say the beats X Wireless have over-the-air pods no question our inline control with the air pause you have control through your phone the aforementioned Apple watch which you have to buy separately or already owned or what most people will use or potentially may not use is Siri because I don't think many people want to talk to their earphones to change the volume or change a song with the beat X wireless you have all that functionality plus the ability to change a song raise the volume activate Siri right through the inline control so while functionality between these two is very very similar the giant difference between these is design air pauses on one hand are completely and truly Wire free whereas with the beats X wireless you have a cable that in turn will run behind your head personally I will say I love the freedom of not having any wires whatsoever but on the other side what's the BTech Wireless having that cable almost adds a layer of security for some people simply due to the fact that because your ear pods are connected you're going to reduce your chances of losing half of your headphones so what I think it comes down to is the question of do you want the freedom of the wire free air pods or will you sacrifice that without extra security and the inline controls on the beach X wireless now from there the question that comes next is how do these fit in your ears with the air pause Apple kind of went with the one size fits most approach so if they don't fit in your ears you're kind of screwed but in my case because they do they're really locked in with the beats X Wireless those also fit really well on my ears and again on the plus side if they don't fit out of the box you have those customizable tips which is a definite plus as far as pure looks go I think it's safe to say the defects Wireless looks better than the air pause but always still look a little funny to me but looks aside as far as my ears go both of these fit really well so with the air plus surprisingly those are not coming out of my ears no matter what I do so with that I wanted to test out the beats X Wireless started with something as simple as shaking my head back and forth the beats X Wireless stayed imperfectly and did not fall out up in the anti zone playing a little basketball school my buddy rich once again the beats X Wireless stayed imperfectly and did not fall out finally the only way of able to get the beat sex Wireless to fall out of my ears which was a totally attempted front flip off a trampoline into some stand so I apologize for what you just had to witness but if you appreciate the front flip attempt go ahead and drop a like down below so as far as sound quality of I'm pretty familiar with the air pods so now it's time to give the beats X wireless a shot right here in left ear so immediately what another put the beats X wireless compared to the airport with surprise-surprise more bass I think that us will do a little bit with how they actually fit and fit in your ears where they're actually jam-packed in there but conversely going back to the air pocket for listening to the beat X Wireless those actually sounded a little bit big if we were talking solely sound quality and that was it I'm going to throw it out that most people out there I think would prefer the beats X Wireless I personally do think the air pods sound a little more balanced overall but if you like that bass definitely go with the beats act Wireless the other thing that I noticed immediately with the beats X Wireless was that sound isolation seemed night and day better with the air pauses you're not in a lot environment they do the job great but once you get into a noisier situation like the gym I often find myself battling the volume trying to turn it up to battle the outside noise but with the beat X Wireless though those do a much better job of blocking that sound out but to be sure I want to put it to the test so right now I'm about 50% volume I'm gonna pop this in my ear and let Ralphie hit it hopping over to the airport once we're going to have the volume set to around 50% what advantage I do want to point out with the airports though is the play/pause feature so because this isn't in my ear right now right now the song is pod once I pop it back in there the song will resume that is something not available on the beats X wireless with that said those sound isolation may be a completely different story so let's check this out so one leaf blower later I can definitely confirm at the beats XY let's do a much better job at sound isolation over the air pods so if that is something important to you the beat definitely take the cake besides that breaking down smaller things like how you charge them both the beats X Wireless and air pods have really stellar options with the beat X wireless you can get two hours of battery life with only five minutes of charge time which is crazy the air Plaza theater hand also held their own really well we're 15 minutes of charge time equates to three hours of battery life what advantage you do get with the air pauses because you charge to the case that is going to give you multiple charges with the air pods by themselves those are going to last around four to five hours but with the case fully charged that's going to get you nearly a full day the beats X Wireless will last longer on a single charge around eight hours but overall you're definitely getting more with the air pot met to say that the beats X wireless battery life is bad by any means because actually really solid but it's something to consider when you're comparing these side-by-side another really awesome thing with beats X Wireless is the fact that they actually click together magnetically if the air pods have that it would be game over so overall TVs are both fantastic options especially if you own an iPhone they will of course also both work with Android but if you want to get the most out of these you definitely want to use iOS with that said though if you are using Android I would definitely grab the beat X Wireless over-the-air pods because you're going to get way more functionality but at the end of the day it really comes down to whether you want the freedom and flexibility of the air pods or the security of the cable with beat X Wireless and that extra layer of base that you're not getting with Apple regardless so hopeful has held the easier buying decision but if you're wondering how do we stack up against jaybird my good buddy Austin bolt Evans just dropped a video where I may or may not have raced and/or tackled him which you can check out here describes me having yet this is Jonathan and I will catch you guys later Toby
