Battery Life

I really wanted to love these...

You can still hear some loud noises, but those are muted significantly. As for Transparency mode, it amplifies outside noise so you can be aware of your surroundings while listening to music. This was quite helpful while I was walking on the street and did not want to be completely isolated from the outside world. Overall I'd say these two features are a solid 10/10 Battery life: On paper Airpods pro have less battery life than Airpods 2 (4

Very nice. Worth the price.

Battery life seems very solid so far. Range is great. The plug and play (case as a receiver) option is an AWESOME feature, and I fully expect other brands to start incorporating this. Fits snugly and does not slip

Sound Quality

My in-store AirPods Pro Max Impressions

>The Apple AirPods Pro have a fairly neutral sound profile, suitable for a variety of audio content. While they struggle a bit more to produce thump and rumble, they lack less bass than the [Apple AirPods 2 Truly Wireless which have an open-back design

Not good not bad

The connection is really bad and interrupt the sound very often even if you have your cell in your pocket. This is for me break deal. And if you go away from your phone and lost connection and you will come back so you have to put the earbuds back to the case and put back to your ears that you will have clear sound otherwise the earbuds can't connect it back easily. The sound is pretty much ok, not the best one but it is ok

Fit

Good sound, poor fit.

The sound quality is good, The in ear fit is not good, I tried all 3 sizes of the supplied silicone ear tips and none fit properly. I tried the proper fit app on my iPhone and could not get an "Okay" on the app. I don't feel they fit securely enough, so I will only use them when I am seated. The Air Pods are not comfortable for any lengthy listening session

LG Tone Free FN7 Review

As mentioned, it’s possible to place the earphones in a way that feels secure and comfortable, but that doesn't create a perfect seal. This will negatively impact ANC performance, and make a clear difference in audio performance when ANC is enabled. So if the ANC sounds less effective, try adjusting the earpieces slightly by twisting them a bit.
