I am in the beautiful San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, California.

I am sitting at a coffee shop on Ventura Boulevard.

facing west down Ventura Boulevard for the Tom Petty fans.

It is right around lunchtime, so there's a bunch of traffic right there.

We just missed a hawk having a bird fight right above me.

So, you know, there's a lot of stuff going on.

there are probably people near you on phone calls or talking to their computers or doing zooms or whatever right now so this i think i feel like this is a fair test in a way that i really like exactly i actually was worried when i sat down and really listened to everything that was going on around me and i thought this is just going to be chaotic but there was a woman at a table right next to me that was on a phone call with some airpods and i'm like well

Yes, it might be chaotic, but it's very truthful.

This is what people do.

These are the wired ear pods.

They are the lightning version, which I have through a lightning to USB-C adapter.

But yeah, the wired, you can see there's the microphone here, which is on the street side.

I never use these.

Yeah, well, they don't have a noise suppression really happening with them.

They're just like, here's what you get.

Good luck.

I am now on the AirPods Pro 3.

It's interesting, too, because a lot of people talk about the call clarity of the AirPods Pro 3, or AirPods Pro in general.

I mean, since they were released, it's been sort of a talking point.

And I've always been like, they're fine?
