Bluetooth Headphone showdown


BlueTooth Showdown

Apple Airpods vs. Beats X Wireless headphones





I am a huge fan of Apple devices. I must admit before February of this year I was not a fan of Bluetooth headphones. Why? They seemed inconsistent with limited range. Although even my old ones from 2012 had amazing sound. My 2016 ones were dope too but they broke. Albeit those headphones wer like 15 dollars

In February of this year I say lemme get the Beats X wireless headphones from Best Buy. I love Best Buy…its my 2nd home lol. Luckily they were on sale for just $90 instead of $150. I love them. They work like regular wireless headphones but they have the W1 chip which means they connect to Apple devices very easily. And switching between devices is simple too! The Beats X are just great. They come with lots of accessories too like a charge cable (lighting) and different ear buds and sports buds.

Recently I got greedy and got the Apple Airpods. They are frigging awesome. There’s so much technology packed into these little things. If you raise them to your ear they start playing music or whatever your listening to. Take one off or both and it will stop. Also if you tap them you can access Siri or do next track. Its up to you…since they are customizable. Also they have the aforementioned W1 Chip.



So we’ve seen what they can both do. So its time to give them both a score to determine which is the best. Lets refer to the table.

Okay so first we’ll look at Design. Airpods get a slight edge here for not having no wire. Battery Life is easily won by Beats X. They have about twice as much battery, plus they can get like half there power back in 5 mins of charging! The sound quality for both are great but neither has much bass. The airpods can be programmed and the Beats X have additional earbuds and earhooks…but I give the edge to the Airpods. And finally I feel all things considered the way the airpods charge via charger case is just so cool.

In Conclusion both of these are great Bluetooth headphones, but the Apple Airpods are just something we haven’t seen before. So I give the Beats X a 9.2/10. However the Airpods I give a 9.5/10…

APPLE FOREVER!

Doja Cat Albums Worst to Best

 Doja Cat has been one of my favorite rapper/singers of the past few years. Let's see which albums are the best from her. 5) Amala (88)- Doja’s first album is honestly pretty damn good. You can tell she was still refining her sound tho on this. The last 3 songs “Juicy”, “Tia Tamera”, and “Mooo” are so good. “Candy” is another banger. The album is really well balanced being pretty much good in all areas but not really great in any tho. Favorite Track: Mooo. 4) Scarlet (90)- Believe it or not, this was an album I was on the fence about getting. I’m glad I got it. This is a rap heavy album but there’s still plenty of singing here and there. “Demons” and “F**k the GIrls” are Doja at her roughest. “Attention” was a great single. “Agora Hills” is a nice cute track. The monster single “Paint the Town Red” is the best track however. This album wa a big departure for her, but for the most part it paid off. Fav. Track Paint the Town Red. 3) Vie (92)- This was Doja returning to her pop roots,...

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...

Album Review: Doja Cat-Vie

  The much anticipated latest Doja Cat album! I was very curious to see where she'd go after the dark rap heavy Scarlet. The path she took was a 80s sounding pop album. It took a few listens for the album to click with me but yeah its awesome. Doja is in her zone here on this album. She sings a lot and acts as her own featured rap artist which is interesting. The first 3 songs are pretty strong. "Cards" is sultry. I love "Jealous Type" too (the lead single). "AAAH MEN!" might be my favorite song however. The production is great but maybe not the best she's ever had. I liked most every song. "Silly!Fun!" and "Come Back" are also excellent. As far as features go there's only SZA on " Take Me Dancing". So basically we have a very strong album here...but maybe not quite as good as Planet Her but it’s very close. Maybe I'll do a Doja Cat album ranking in the near future. She's been one of my favorite artists sin...
