The further we get into December, the harder it will be to get AirPods (and all Apple products) in time for Christmas Day delivery. With this in mind, the AirPods Pro 2 today have a December 14-15 delivery date, so if you held off for Black Friday we recommend making your purchases soon.

I'm happy with my gen 1 air pods pros, but the recent uptick in comparison to the AirPods pro max has got me interested in upgrading. For the price, I'm also looking at the Soundcore liberty 4's.
 
I have both the 1st pro, and now the 2nd gen.
my thoughts, huge upgrade in sound quality, flat out, the missing low end of the first gen is gone,
defiantly not beats boomy, just more balanced, i do mixing and tracking, and have very expensive main monitors.
I know what flat sounds like a little, the 2nd gen is much closer. just better overall balance.

another odd thing, the 2nd gen fits in my ears and passes the sound test, my first gen would never pass. And still will not.
I think they vented them differently or something, they look exactly the same, but the vents.
just guessing here, but the second gen fits and seals up better for me.

ya the sale got me, I am happy I tried em out, big upgrade imo.

I upgraded from he original AirPods so the upgrade in sound for me was mind-blowing. But watching movies with Spatial Audio, specifically with an Apple TV and Head Tracking on, is an amazing audio experience. The soundstage and imaging is so nuanced and realistic that I kept taking an Airpod out of my ear just to make sure I hadn't left my surround sound system on. I tested the effect watching a movie and replaying a part where a voice was apparently coming from over my right shoulder. As I turned my head to the left the voice moved directly behind me. The effect is stunning! Until competitors inevitably start copying what Apple is doing with Spatial Audio, the AirPods Pro 2 are the best thing going. It's like having a 5.1 audio system in your pocket!

Agreed spatial audio is an underrated feature which is also one of the reasons the liberty 4’s have my attention.
 
Bought these at the discount and wow it sounds like an orchestra in my ears. Also the amount of bass is insane. Def worth the buy
