Subjectively, Bose did a better job with wind Bose has 11 levels between transparency and ANC but can never turn off AirPods only have ANC/off/Transparency Both have adaptive transparency with dB threshold, but Bose has a lower threshold 2. MIC TEST So we are tied 1:1 and honestly, both are pretty solid so far. But what about the audio quality? 3. AUDIO QUALITY 4. BATTERY Bose battery = 6/24hrs WITH ANC - 4/16 with immersive AirPods battery = 6/30hrs, but about 4.5/24 with ANC 5. FEATURES AirPods Find My. You can find the Bose case, but won’t use UWB AirPods have a case speaker Bose works well with android or apple Both have mono mode Neither has multipoint, but AirPods sort of do for apple products only, Bose has app switching. AirPods switching is now faster with update Tap and swipe controls vs Pinch and swipe EarScan for 360 audio in AirPods Spatial audio vs immersion mode AirPods have adaptive audio that can adjust based on you Bose plays calibration sound for each ear Bose has “modes” AirPods are getting a mute gesture AirPods are getting conversational awareness Works well with all devices vs only really apple devices Has an app 6. DESIGN Bose case has no wireless charging AirPods case can charge qi, magsafe, apple watch, or USB-C AirPods are IP54 in buds and case, Bose are just IPX4 AirPods are smaller with smaller case AirPods have lanyard hook Both are comfortable, and both eventually fall out of my left ear Bose has wing tip, so more secure AirPods are smaller though and have an XS tip added this time Bose has additional eartip sizes for purchase AirPods have skin detection 7.
