There is no sound cancellation but for greater independence and integration with Office 365
More wireless Earbuds look wireless. A white "disk" that appears to have symptoms it's about the equivalent of two euros. It's a surface that allows you to use taps and swipes to combine their control. We can skip or skip songs, pause playback, increase volume and pick up calls. Of course, it allows you to invoke various virtual assistants, even though you don't have to test it, it will be a key to delay the operation.
This is against the control of AirPods, which are reduced by touch or pin. With them you can pick up the phone, play or pause and plead with Siri. The integration with Siri due to Hey Siri command
On the back of the Surface Earbuds disk we find Earpaper, which Microsoft says is much more comfortable. Other manufacturers select the same options to use the inner ear surface to hold your headphones. While AirPods use an "antenna" that hangs to the ear and holds in place.
In addition to design and controls, the upper Earbuds are distinguished by their integration with Office 365. It lets you control PowerPoint presentations, activate subtitles and translate them into writing in other languages in real time. Pixel Buds has already tried to provide simultaneous rendering, though it was not an enthusiastic performance.
And finally, we have independence. On paper, Microsoft confirms that its Surface Earbuds have 8 hours of battery charge per charge, and will likely use it an additional two times in 24 hours. 10 minutes paid in this case, we get 1 hour of play, even though compared to AirPods, you get the same charge for half the time.
With the details set, the Surface Earbuds are closer to the AirPods even though the price for their range is the AirPods Pro
Earlier, Surface Earbuds was also announced with a release date at the end of 2019. Microsoft delayed and finally entered the promotional date of May 12, at a price of 219 euros. Price reduced from $ 249 to $ 199 today, even though we don't know the equivalent in euros.
Considering that Earbuds doesn't have audio cancellations and that AirPods Pro gets discounts that bring them closer to that price, Microsoft's Apple user recommendation it gets harder.
