We're talking about apple products though. And this came open right away. Oh yeah. It's a better fit than the regular AirPods for my ears. Check the, look sick at the strongest connection, which might be the sweet spot. I don't know. Oh, we have volume. Weirdly, it's, there's a lot of crossovers here. Who, who, who said they're almost the same. We have some AirPods today.
The new AirPods, that's the confusing part. Isn't it AirPods third generation, not pro they still have the pro? They still have the second generation. These are the third generation, a slight improvement over the second generation, but you're going to pay more money. I have the Canadian price on this particular package, $239. So it's still a premium price. Who's it for it's for somebody who wants some of the pro features without an ear tip style design. Uh, this also has the mag safe charging case, which I think is a pretty cool improvement for convenience and such.
So this can just snap onto Apple's magnetic, mag safe. There's a thing going on with the word MagSafe and how it applies to the variety of magnetic apple products. Cause there's like iPhone mag safe. And then there's the new mag safe charger, which is kind of like the old mag safe charger for the laptops. Anyway, the point is as you can magnetically charge these, which is a nice touch as well. Oh, also I have a new later case just like this one, AirPods third generation, 100% DuPont Kevlar, same fit as this one. So you can pick that up, order that up if you're going to be getting the third generation AirPod and another quick preview, before I jumped into the box, I got the new G shock watch smartwatch, Android, where I haven't worn a G shock in a long time. But if you've been around a channel, you know, I used to love these things where ROS by Google plus Casio G shock, rugged and stuff, GSW H 1000 made in Japan.
So that's a bonus round after we do the AirPods. Now the shape of it, they changed. So even though it's not interchangeable ear tips, it is a sort of a more bulbous looking shape to it. Still has your toothbrush stem-looking situation. However, the stem is a little bit shorter on this one as well. Easy on boxing experience. You know how this goes, zip and zip also come with spatial audio. So AirPods through you're going to have the spatial audio feature from the AirPods pro-standard AirPods. Never had it. However, active noise cancellation continues to be the biggest difference. That's going to be exclusive to the price of your model with the pro designation you've been using the AirPods pro recently. Any thoughts on that? I love him. Oh my God. The noise cancellation is amazing. Noise cancellation. He says amazing. He's trying to get Mo out of his life or at least the noise that is making, which is frequent and constant. Maybe the dog is not that loud himself.
A little bit of paperwork inside the package. Touch controls, obviously on the side of the stem play, pause, skip tracks, and Siri. If you'd like to use it, the case is a little bit larger than regular air pods, as you can see, but not quite as large as the pro model. That's interesting. We peel this and this came open right away. It's still going to have your lightning connector on the bottom for charging it up. You're still gonna have you're led on the front. It's all very familiar. Look at the two-tone black and white look, pull out the pro bud and pull out the third generation, bud. They're so comparable in appearance. That's crazy. It's almost like the new third-generation bud is simply missing the nozzle. And that's it. If I pull off the little adapter in-ear adapter, look how similar those look, the pro model versus the third generation.
Although the speaker portion, the port is larger on the pro model still. And actually, the entire earbud is larger on the pro model. Still, let's try this on. Let's get an idea of some comfort here, right-left. Now one benefit of not having a nozzle like this is you have a fit. That is a, I do not know what to call it. More of a casual fit. If you're going for the opposite. End of the spectrum from noise-canceling, maybe more towards transparency. Then this is just naturally more transparent because it's not sitting in my ear canal. So I can even hear myself speaking. I never had trouble with the original air pods and the fit there, but some people say it falls out of their ears. You were complaining about that in the past. I don't think anything's going to compete with the pro model for fit because it's in the ear canal.
Oh yeah. It's a better fit than the regular AirPods for my ears. Yeah. This, this is, this is loose. This is looser. It's smaller, it's a way smaller ear, bud. Where's the charging pad. The apple charged. Well, Moe goes to get the, uh, the magazine charger so we can look at the connection of this thing. Also in the package, you have a typical traditional cable option on this end. It's still going to be lightning. Now, as far as the case is concerned, let's see how that fits on. Well, no adhesive is necessary. It's a friction fit. So that just goes bang like that. And you still have access to the button and bingo, check the look set. Okay. So we have the, uh, apple official MagSafe charger. Uh, this is just going to stick when it gets there. You have the orange glow comes on.
It's charging. It's not the strongest connection, but it doesn't have to be because you're not going to be using the case while it's on there. Not like the phones, which have to make a sort of stronger grasp because you're going to be using the phone. And yes, it does work as well with the case on it still sticks and charges. I also think with this new design, they're going to get a little bit less disgusting. I don't know why that is, but like with the ear wax and stuff, the in is going to be the worst for that. These were kind of bad for that because they had a really small nozzle as well. This one with the bigger opening, I think it's going to be easier to clean it out and get the debris out of there. That's just a little side thing.
All right. So there's an update prepared here, iOS 15.1. All right. We're back. It is another day because this one, we left it updating. It was like the world's longest update for some reason, 15.1 pro-Rez. I blamed pro-Rez. Anyway, it doesn't matter because we're back and that's the main thing. And now we're finally going to get to listen to the third generation of AirPods, which might be the sweet spot. I don't know if it's in between these two. And so you save a little bit of money on this one. You pay a little more than this one. How are they going to sound? I'm going to compare. I'm going to listen to these. And then the pros are, can they replace the pros? Should you get them instead of the pros? Do you need noise cancellation? All right. So right away, of course, we get our wonderful air pod connection prompt. I am connected. Now I just got to be honest with you. It is almost no isolation. I have music playing piano music somehow right away. Where's this music coming from. That's my, oh, it's your apple music. I was like, what's going on here? It's funny. When you were in marketing spatial audio, I never imagined it also, I mean, you end up with the activity of spatializing I've already demonstrated spatial audio with the pro models. It is magical. I, it sounds stupid. It sounds so stupid. It feels like I don't know how the software,
Well, that's a switch. We're in Kirk's library right now. They sound better than these little AirPods. It's, there's a thickness. There's a thickness to it. Sound better than it knows. So this is a bang and album. You're going to love this album. It's a comfortable, uh, earbud. It's a day-to-day it's every day, I don't know about lone star rag, but definitely when we had the Drake on there. Wow. This is my life. 2016 in a bottle right here.
Lots of volume to Hey with like the ear healthcare turned off. We have volume. I like having more volume than I need. And then just like, allow me to look. Do you know what I mean? Like, as far as the volume is concerned, I need to be able to manage these things. Somehow. It's just like a little bit of a punch lacking, just a tiny touch. Uh, maybe I should just do an AB test right now. Same track.
No, they're not even close to as good as the pros. No, not even close. People are saying, people are saying why they're pretty close to me saying what? I don't know who you're talking to. I don't know who you've been chatting with. It got buds flying over here, flying buds, but here's the thing. All right. All right. Let me just, if you don't mind, let me, uh, give you my take here. I have no idea why you would buy, uh, unless you hate having things in your ear. Sit deeply in your ear. If the ear tip in the ear, canal drives you nuts. That's the one reason I think you should look at the AirPods third generation. That's pretty much it because these are better have more features. And they're not that much more money if you're already close to two bills on a year. But I guess the wireless charging is a nice little touch. I don't know what kind of value that brings for you, but you're so close to picking up these or finding them for slightly less on a discount or something. I guess the case is a little bit smaller. Get the pro that's it. That's easy. That's easy to get the pro. Yup. I'm sold. I'm resold. If this is what you're considering, these are your options. Get the pro. Yeah.
I mean, they're fine. I mean, they're fine. Get the pro to skip these. Get the pro, which ones should I get? I think he might, you know what? I gave it some more thought here. I think maybe go for the pro. I'm guessing that Apple still sells it. A lot of these and people are intimidated like that. There must be a reason why they feel like this, this product needs to exist in the middle of these two. Maybe this thing's on the way out. They're going to hang onto it for just a short period. Maybe the holiday season, whatever one more generation, because they have an abundance of inventory or it's easier to make right now because of shortages or shipping or COVID or whatever. I don't think this design is necessarily going to be there forever things. I just feel this product makes more sense when you don't also have this one as an option because they're so similar.
That's all, that's all get the pro to skip these. Get the pro. I don't know if you guys know as Kanye, he shaved his eyebrows. He'd been wearing these around well, Mohan said later case shout out. Yeah, that might be one of my favorite later case products. The way it was fit on the AirPods. Max, get the pro to let's check out this new watch. How about that? A, a G shock that has where O S it can work in, uh, like a light power consumption mode as a pretty typical G shock, which I like sometimes I don't want smart features. Don't need heart rate, and I don't want to drain the battery. So you can go for much longer periods when you're in sorta dumb mode and then flip into the smart boat. When I don't know, you need to track heart rate or something like that. And I typically don't want notifications on my wrist. So that's a cool compromise, or that's a cool hybrid type of setup there. So rugging slam it into something and you don't, you're not concerned anyway, built into this one shock-resistant heart rate, GPS, altimeter barometer, compass, and also some water resistance, as well as you would expect in a rugged watch like this.
I love the old-school, Japanese digital watch on boxing experience. You can imagine somebody thinking, good Lord. That's a that's too much. I can't have that on my wrist all day, but I don't mind. Or at least I didn't in the past G shock feelings. Look at the strap. It clicks along there through there. You have a double class, you see the heart rate sensor on the bottom. Yeah. So look at these little wrist supports as well, because it is so large, huge, tactile buttons. You get this, it's almost like Medisafe sort of that little pin portion and what happened. Yeah. It's magnetic lovely. And that's it, it has some minor blue accents, like on the start button over here. And also you can see through the wristband.
So that's your look I'm telling you, it's not going to be for everybody, but so rugged, you know, but if you're into it at all, if you're the rugged type or you just appreciate having ruggedness then this is kind of a cool, uh, merging of the worlds of the watch worlds, couldn't be more different than the watch Kirk's currently wearing. That is, uh, the fanciest of fancy apple watches. Gold-plated right. That's from caviar. Now. It's obvious why Apple took the approach they took, but I'm glad that other options exist. Look how cool the G shock logo is just so classic. I'm going to set it up with my, uh, pixel six pros and where O S. And if you want to know more about my experience with this watch, I'll probably chat about it on the next episode of loo later.
