The AirPods Pro 2 also have functions to emphasize sounds coming directly at someone, adjust the overall volume, and adjust the balance of each band, but these are difficult to set up for anyone who isn’t a user, and we haven’t tested them. depth. Nevertheless, it is a useful feature if the user knows how to use it.
Limited Foreign Use
Although AirPods Pro 2 it worked well at home, its use was more limited when my grandmother went out. He worried that they might get in the way or lose them when he went to the fitness center to work out. There were times when he was worried about putting on the headphones in the first place when he was having dinner with friends or attending a music recital.
Even as someone two generations younger, I have a habit of taking out my headphones when I’m talking to someone. Not surprisingly, part of a generation of only a handful of people his age who primarily wear wireless headphones may be even more self-conscious about wearing AirPods.
There are also limitations due to battery life. According to the official website, hearing aids usually have batteries that are designed to last a full day, while the AirPods Pro 2 last up to six hours on a charge. Forgetting to charge your AirPods enough and then losing hearing aid functionality will be disruptive.

In addition, there were some operational problems. For example, the AirPods Pro 2’s Hearing Aid feature is only available when External Sound Capture mode is enabled, but the pressure-sensitive sensor on the shaft used to switch between settings was a bit difficult for me to work with.
As for taking the headphones in and out of the box, it seemed difficult at first, but over time it became more comfortable in the process. However, I was still worried about him dropping them, and we thought about attaching a chain to them, although it would be difficult to attach and remove the chain every time the AirPods needed to be charged. Before purchasing them, you may want to consider your family member’s dexterity and hand strength.
After testing the AirPods Pro 2 for a week, my grandmother said she would continue to use them at home. He praised them as headphones and comfortable to wear. However, it looks like he will continue to use hearing aids when he leaves the house, at least until then.
