Is The New Apple AirPod Pro Really Worth It?

9th November 2020

"Is it really worth it?"

The first thing that you find about the AirPods Pro is that since they have more bass, they simply sound smoother than the regular AirPods. As noted, the IPX4 water-resistance rating of the AirPods Pro makes them splash-resistant and sweat-resistant, whereas the regular AirPods do not have a water-resistance rating.

The AirPods Pro sounds much stronger than the initial AirPods, and if you want the best music out of the box, they are the better option of the two. Noise cancellation does a better job of blocking more sound from the real environment and when you listen to songs, podcasts, or make calls, it's a lot more comfortable.

If you're an iPhone user and have been experimenting with your earbuds with the thought of getting real wireless, then the Apple AirPods Pro is a perfect alternative. The latest noise-canceling function is neat and helpful, and the combined sound and design changes may not be more pleasant, although they are very costly.

They have good noise-canceling feature being a better fit than other AirPods. We have to reckon the fact that there are other rivals better than this AirPod at a low price but for iPhone fans, this works best.

Top 5 earbuds in Nepal 2022 | Reviews Nepal

5th May 2022

"Looking for the best earbuds in Nepal?"

Earbuds have been replacing the earphone culture globally for quite a time now. The trend of wireless earbuds is growing as most people don’t want to get themselves all messed up in the strangled wired earphones.

In Nepal, you can get earbuds of different brands, the pricing varying from a few thousand to more than 20 times those thousands. The best earbuds in Nepal are:

Apple Airpods pro

Apple AirPods pro, undoubtedly, tops the list. Apple Airpods pro has a higher-end version of its existing AirPods with a unique design, noise cancellation technology, and better sound quality. Apple has made some changes in Apple Airpods Pro for the convenience of the users. It has a silicone tip that prevents you from discomfort or pain even after wearing it for hours. Its noise cancellation and the audio quality are also commendable. The looks, efficiency, and every other feature of Airpods Pro are seductive but the price, somehow, may disappoint you. The Airpod is water and sweat resistant and can last for about 4.5 hours on a single charge.

Along with a mesmerizing design and noise-canceling feature, it has loud audio with nice-punchy bass, clear vocals, depth of field effect, and an industry-leading noise-canceling feature.
