SHOWDOWN: Powerbeats Pro VS AirPods 2 VS Galaxy Buds!

2019-06-01
what's going on guys travels consumer and you knew this was gonna happen today we've got a showdown of the three most talked-about wireless earbuds right now the power beats Pro the air pods - and the galaxy buds now we are going to cover everything you need to know so you can pick the right one so of course the first thing we're gonna talk about are the designs so with the power beats Pro these pretty much look like your standard power beats but without the long cable and these actually look really good I like the way these look so they've got that ear hook so they can stay in the ear of course a lot of Jimi earbuds kind of look like this now so that they don't fall out but of course looks are subjective but I really like the way these look I think they're pretty solid and of course we have the air pods - now this is a design that people used to make fun of some still do but it's pretty iconic now I'm not super crazy about the you know whole stem look but it's pretty normalized now so I don't think it's that bad but I don't think that these look better than the power beats they also don't fit that well but we'll talk about that aspect of the design a little bit later and then we have the galaxy buds now these are super low-key I actually really like the design of these because you just throw them in your ear and boom they're like hidden it's really nice some people say it looks like you got like marshmallows or cotton balls in your ears when they're white so the white ones maybe aren't as stealthy but if you have the black versions it'll probably look really good I wish I had the black so when it comes to the overall design I think I'll have to go with the galaxy buds as the winner here and then in second place probably the power beats em err pause last now when we're talking about design we also got to talk about the cases because that's pretty much where they live now with the air pods it's pretty nice and simple you got this little case here that you just pop open get your air pods out and it's nice small convenient you throw this guy in your pocket and it's no big deal at all now you also get that same bit with the Galaxy buds really small low key pretty flat a little bit bigger than the air pods in terms of the length but this is also very easy so just throw in your pocket and kind of forget about it so that's also nice but when it comes to the power beats Pro this is a thick one and you're not going to want to throw this in your pocket I mean you can but that thing sticks out like a sore thumb it's just not convenient whatsoever so you'll probably want to throw this in a backpack or something else rather than throw this in your pocket so it loses points for that now we talked about the design but let's talk about comfort and you would think that the power beats Pro would be a easy winner here but they're actually not even though they have this ear hook design they stay on the ears pretty well so in terms of comfort it's nice that this doesn't slip off but I found that there's ear fatigue after about an hour of using these and I think it's because of this part right here is actually pretty hard and it's just really uncomfortable after some time it really starts to dig into the ear for me personally I can use these for more than an hour without starting to get really tired of them and then we've got the Galaxy buds now I like the Galaxy buds a lot because these of course have an in-ear design so they can sit right inside of the ear they're not heavy they don't dig into anything in my ears these are very very comfortable and you don't even notice that you're wearing them now when it comes to the air pods - these are a bit more of a toss-up some people have ears that they fit perfectly for some people just can't wear them I'm one of those people but for those who can wear them I haven't heard any complaints about the overall feel these are also very lightweight so even I can keep them in my ear for like two seconds this is not a strain on my ears whatsoever if I don't move around a lot I can wear them for a long period of time but once I get to actually moving and walking around a bit that's when I have issues with them falling out so in terms of comfort I like these even more so than the power beats which are made to stay in your ear because these don't hurt and they don't give any ear fatigue I will say though these don't create a tight seal or anything so you'll be able to get a lot more ambien sound in your ears you know could be a good thing when you're outside if you want to know about your surroundings but it can have a bit of an impact on music listening so something to keep in mind so for me the most comfortable are absolutely the galaxy buds and then I'd go with the air pods to of course depending on if you can wear them or not and then I'll go with B power beats Pro now of course we got to talk about the features now when it comes to the power beats Pro and the air pods - you pretty much get the same skill set here they both feature apples h1 chip and with that you'll be able to do cool things like just open up the case and have automatically pair or quickly pair with an iOS device and it's also going to be able to switch between Apple products very seamlessly and very easily another cool thing with the h1 chip is being able to just have them in your ear and you call out to Siri by just saying you know the phrase I don't got to say it and then you can ask you whatever questions even ask you to control the volume play music skip music so that is some really cool functionality if you're into using voice assistance and you also have the ability to add some different functionalities to them in the settings on iOS devices but it's not much you really can't do anything too crazy with these in terms of features now one thing that says apart the air pods to some power beats Pro is that the case can wirelessly charge so if you opt for this special case you opt to spend a little bit more money you can go ahead and get this wireless charging feature so if you've got a wireless charger or something you can just kind of throw it down and then it'll start charging there you go it took a long time but it's there now the air pod soo aren't the only one with its wireless charging case the galaxy buds also feature one as well but what's cool about the Galaxy buds is if you of course pick up a Galaxy S 10 it has that feature built right into us where you can just kind of throw it on top and have it charge the galaxy buds just like that I mean you could do the same with the air pods I guess but easily this is not a combo like never now while we're talking about the galaxy s 10 this is where the galaxy buds kind of blow the other two out of the water so with the galaxy buds app the where app from Samsung you can actually use this so go ahead and change a ton of different things with the galaxy buds now I'm not gonna go into all of them but you can see here you can choose the kind of sound quality you want you can choose what the touchpad does so there's a lot of cool options that you can do with this that you just don't get with the other two so if you're running an Android device it absolutely makes sense to get the galaxy buds over these two if you care about features that isn't to say though that you can't rock these with an Android device all of these earbuds work with pretty much any device that has bluetooth and one last feature that I'll mention with the Galaxy buds is that they've got this cool ambient mode so you can pretty much pick up everything in your surroundings while listening to your audio so that you can know what's going on around you even though these create a pretty tight seal if you want to be able to hear someone call out your name while you're listening to your music or something you can turn that feature on now when it comes to battery life you can expect about 4 to 5 hours of listening time with the air pods and with the case you can get an additional like 19 hours or so the claim is that you can get 24 hours or more than 24 hours with the case included whenever you charge up your air pods now these also have a bit of a quick charge feature where if you charge these for 15 minutes you get 2 hours of playtime and with the power beats you get a crazy 9 hours of playtime and with the case you get an additional 15 hours which is just insane that is extremely good battery life for truly wireless earbuds so when it comes to the case and the earbuds either around the same realm in the 20 hour plus range but what makes the power beats Pro really nice is they've got this fast fuel feature which gives an hour and a half of music listening for just five minutes of charging that is really quick and for the galaxy buds you get about five to six hours of listening time with these and the case only gets you another seven hours so this case is the weakest out of all of these here but with five to six hours of listening at a time it's definitely no slouch but you will have to charge this case more than these two and the Galaxy buds also have a bit of a quick charge feature where if you charge them for 15 minutes you'll get an hour and a half of playback now when it comes to the chargers for all of these the of course charge with a lightning cable so you plug in a lightning cable and you're good to go and the same goes for the power beats Pro it also takes a lightning cable but the galaxy buds uses a USB type-c cable so of course we've got to talk about the audio quality that's why you're here so when it comes to the galaxy buds I actually really like these they've got a decent amount of bass don't have like a crazy thump or anything but they definitely sound pretty good especially since these are in ear buds you definitely get to feel that bass a little bit more with these so overall I really do like these vocals are pretty clear they sound great but when it comes to something like the air pods now these are a little bit tougher they don't have a tight seal so music tends to leak out you don't get everything the music doesn't sound as separated these are absolutely good for everyday people who aren't really crazy about sound maybe you just want something that just sounds decent B sound good they have some solid bass although the bass isn't as tight as with what both of these actually but it definitely does still have some bass but I think that the clear winner here though has to be these guys right here the bass is pretty punchy vocals are their instruments sound good I feel like there's a lot of separation here so you can kind of pay attention to different little things when listening to these but I'll be completely honest with you guys I think for average listeners every day people who pick any of these up they'll be pretty happy with the sound quality but it's once you start comparing them that you start to see the gap in quality the power beats Pro definitely ranked first for me here then I'll give it to the galaxy buds and the last place I'll give it to the air pods and I think this makes sense especially when you start factoring the price these better sound better than these other two and of course my quality is very important since people use these here buds to make calls and right now you're hearing the audio quality from the air pods - right now you guys are hearing the audio from the galaxy but I've had addy complain about the audio quality when talking for a few times with these so it's gonna be interesting how it compares and last but not least we have the power beats pro so you guys let me know with a comment down below which is the three you think sounds better okay guys so the most important part of any purchasing decision is of course the price earpods go for 200 bucks with the wireless charging case galaxy buds are only one $29.99 and the power beats Pro are two hundred and fifty bucks so definitely the most expensive you get better sound you get better battery life from it but it is a lot of money I feel like the sweet spot is the of course galaxy buds because you get good sound quality a nice comfortable fit really inexpensive price tag and if you're on Android you get a lot of features so to me this is a really solid deal especially if your ears can't fit the air pods but if you're rocking an iOS device and you absolutely don't care about the galaxy buds and you want to pick between the air pods and the power beats Pro I personally think if you really like to work out and you're going to the gym a lot power beats Pro are a good option thanks to of course that sweat resistant and that secure fit or if you really need better sound quality then these are worth the investment but you do have to factor in the comfort if the air pods fit for you they might feel a lot more convenient since they got that smaller form factor but for me personally I'm still gonna go with the Galaxy buds as my winner I think they're better than the other two overall although they have a little bit less battery life but the bang for your buck is absolutely there but hopefully you guys enjoyed this video if you did be the cool guy or girl that gives it a thumbs up and we'll catch you guys in the next one till then it's your average consumer piece I really wanted to love these
