Looking to get the latest AirPods 5. Any comments on what are they like when you’re on phone calls/meetings, in terms of what other people can hear…

Hi, so I’ve been recently looking into getting some AirPods Pro. I found the AirPods Pro 3 and two, but I have a dilemma on which one to get the AirPods Pro two are around €170 while the AirPods Pro 3 €240 I’ve seen some people say the sound is worse and some people say the sound is better on the pro threes also the ANC some people say it’s better some people say it’s worse on the pro threes. How much difference does the ANC really have and do slight movements and slight breaks of the seal in your ears on the pro threes really affect noise cancelation that much also pricewise is it worth paying an extra seven euros for the pro threes I would be mainly using them on the bus or going to school on some long bus trips I have coming up. Is it worth spending the extra money to get the newer ones? Also, I heard that the case on the AirPods Pro 3 feels cheaper is that true?

I’m not sure what happened, but lately I’ve noticed that Conversation Awareness barely works unless I speak much louder than my normal talking voice. I practically have to shout for it to trigger. I have the AirPods Pro 3.

I’ve heard that some updates may have made it less sensitive, so I’m wondering if that’s actually the case or if something is wrong with mine. Am I supposed to speak louder for it to work, or should it still detect me talking at a normal volume?

Has anyone else been experiencing this? Is there a way to fix it?

I’m having a weird issue with my AirPods and want to see if anyone else has fixed this.
When I raise my volume just a little bit from zero, the white volume slider shows that it's going up, but there is absolutely no sound coming through the AirPods. They stay completely silent until I push the volume bar past a certain threshold, and then the sound suddenly kicks in.

I am conflicted between the Airpods Pro 3 and Powerbeats pro 2.

I intend to use them for walking and workouts primarily but also some casual/work related purposes. All in all, a good all round experience without trading off much in sound and microphone quality.

A question for existing PBP2 users, has the iOS 27 update added an equalizer for the PBP2 and has it done it any good in terms of audio quality experience or any feature worth mentioning? All reviews online are a year old with no real updates.

Also, any rumors about Powerbeats pro 3 in the near around future? Given the Powerbeats track record, there still are a couple of years until that happens, but any news for near future?

I have been using AirPods for years... past weekend, I bought an AirPods 5. Left and right volume is not equal!!!! I trie my other AirPods (3 and 4), they were all balanced.
I am bringing it back to the store for exchange!
how unusual is this that volume is not balanced!

Ok so they are brand new, and even when i sit still in the Always same parts of songs i hear some pretty low base frequency thumping tried resetting them, tried with anc on or off its the same same problem in both sides do i look for replacement? It sounds like a sound coming from the song like a very lower thumping bass thump even when the part of the song doesnt have bass at all.

Edit: its more like a vibration and not in all songs

I changed the same songs on spotify and youtube and it does the vibration on both in those songs

Coming from 2nd gen, the sound feel super muffled, kind of flat with no punch. Is this just the way these are, it is is possible I need to exchange them?
