Apple AirPods Pro vs MoonDrop Aria

>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

This time the right channel made a soft pop. Now the earphone that I do have barely gets to a listenable level at full volume on my phone and has the same tinny-ness as the left. The quality control of these units is awful and the process of getting anything about it fixed at all is more of a hastle and wait than I am willing to go through again (keep in mind it's been three months since I've recieved the headphones and not only are neither working properly anymore, but half of that time was spent with only one earphone anyway). Update: The company happily and swiftly issued a refund at request after a breif explanation, so it is at least easy to get refunds/replacements, and for that I give them credit

If you’re using them with Apple products, it’s basically a no-brainer buy for the AirPods Pro. The ecosystem integration is absolutely awesome. The noise cancelling is fantastic, and transparency mode is super useful if you need to quickly hear voices or wear them while outside for awareness.

There are cheaper options like the aforementioned IEMs and more expensive options like the Empire Ears Odin, but from a purely value standpoint, these top the charts. Thanks for reading my review.

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

Basically, when I'm wearing them, only the tips are in and not the body, so I'll be sending them back. Before I purchased the T3 Plus, by the bunch of reviews and comments I've heard and read about the Moondrop Aria's, they seem like a good upgrade from the Blon's because of the similar warm balanced tuning. However, I'm still concerned about the fit since their size looks similar to the T3 Plus' and definitely those paint chipping issues.

So I decided to purchase the pros since they won’t slip as easily as the original AirPods (Let me start by saying they came pretty fast, and they were packaged safely!) I’d say this is a great investment, it’s very comfortable and from what I’ve gathered so far on these is you can answer your calls, skip and rewind back with your music as well, it’s very sound proof so if you’re one of those people who do best getting tasks done during work, school, or even at home without noise around you, these are the way to go. I hope this helped someone! :)

If you are going to find any decent in-ear/earbuds, it's worth to give this a try blindly if you don't know anything at all, I bet you won't regret about it. The only one small thing that maybe different from one to another, is that the comfortabilty. I'm not sure what causes it, but this can't stay in my ear at a long time, compared to the Moondrop Quarks, which is one of the smallest and cheapest In ear, but it has a muddy mid which I don't really like. But since it's has a really good price, I can't complain about this at all

I’ve used airpods pro for 6 months heavily, i’ve a/b tested noise cancelling on airpod pro with these...These are better beside a busy road or air con unit

It's not all positive however, the Moondrop Aria's can cause some ear tenderness after hours of wearing. Changing the eartips out to custom ones doesn't really help much, but it can if you find an eartip that really works well for you. I think this tenderness is due to the metal casing that is used, but I can't complain too much about them being metal because it'll add durability and make them last longer. If you're looking for a great pair of earbuds under $100 for the gamer or audiophile in your life, this is an excellent pair of earbuds for them

You should definitely take them to an Apple store, they will probably replace them for free even if they are out of warranty. Last month both of my AirPods Pro (bought on release date, so they were out of warranty) died and had terrible static in both ears. I made an appointment with the Apple store notifying them of the issue, and when I went they ran some tests and just replaced them afterwards at no cost. I’m pretty sure it is a fairly common issue, because they have a dedicated replacement program

Does all of this sound familiar? What happens next made me get up from my bed to write this review. Lost, confused, and disappointed that I might have to buy a new pair I grabbed the box again and started prodding around. I noticed that underneath the compartment where the case is I could lift it up to reveal a hidden box inside. Inside the box was a warranty, notes, miscellaneous cards and then a clear package filled with tweezers

I’m sorry. I can’t recommend this product. If Sony US team is reading this review and if Sony Japan is designing all the products, please tell the Japan team that you don’t need to make too many half-baked products. You just need to offer 3 tiers of products (aka “good”, “better” and “best”) and focus on making sure they are the best products at their price points

Very Clean with a real nice clarity to them. It’s definitely balanced over all, nothing is trying to out do the other frequencies, though there is a little lift in the bass and in the treble region, the mid range seems pretty level and maybe a pinch upper mid lift as well, as the vocals come in nicely as well with no recess. For me, this isn’t my favorite tuning, but I will say the tuning is done pretty excellent for what they went after, and add the price in, these are a bargain without a doubt, though I do like the Starfields a touch better, though they’re almost identical, I like the color and shape of the Starfield, and I think the Soundstage is just a smudge larger and more precise, which with them I can really get lost with my eyes close pinpointing where the sounds are, not that these can’t, they can, just slightly less, but factor in the cost, you can’t go wrong with these. I do get a craving for more bass with these, as it just seems not enough, though I do get a natural feel to the sounds with them, in though when I listen to Classical Rock, such as AC/DC “Thunderstruck”, the guitar comes in nicely with the vocals, and then the drums kick in, all is clear and clean, I just feel like I want more Mmmmph! to it, some more meat, as it sounds a little lean, even though everything comes in nicely
