    Added bonus to AirPods or Beats over Bluetooth headset... I have Siri read my messages to me and I can easily reply to them without touching my iPhone... (totally hands free) ... and I have a HomeKit light strip to illuminate the dark cave that is the lower bunk and can control it with my headsets (or iPhone/iPad) too.

    Added bonus to being all in the same ecosystem.

    AirPod pros hold up and work really well.

    I used the originals and then moved to the Pros. Clear, the noise canceling will remove a lot of sound with our masking important noises. Mine take a beating and still keep working. I’ve never used any blue parrot stuff.

    The silicone case makes them easier to find and adds some shock absorption.

    No comparison. I have yet to find anything that is even in the same ballpark as a Blue Parrot headset. I have Airpod pros and a lot of times at night I turn on some great music with the noise cancelling on and they are really good sounding pods as far as pods go. They will never put out the volume or bass of a set of over-the-ear headphones though.

    But, I think the OP's question is more about call quality. No good. No one can hear me and I have a very quiet truck. I don't even try to talk on them in the truck. Out of the truck they are fine, in fact better than most. Trucks are just too loud. Blue Parrot was designed specifically for this. Nothing else really is.

    I forgot my Blue Parrot one time I went out, I left it in my pick up. Worst week of my life.
