Hi  Martyn,





I've used the original Apple AirPods in a work environment and with other Devices like Windows Computers and Samsung TVs - my experience was good, so can imaging the AirPod Pro series being better, but I have not experience these directly.



Other True Wireless ear phones I have tried are the Jabra series and the Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch. The latter being great for music and battery life. They can be even be used independently like the AirPods (one bud at a time), but not much else.



However, for me, the Jabra Series have been my best experience yet, great NR and sound, and can be paired and used with multiple devices at any one time. My only disappointment with them is that independent support was promised put Jabra gave up on that idea, so you can't use the left one on its own-only the right.

Hello Everyone,



I wondered if anyone had experience of using Apple AirPods Pro as a noise cancelling headset and microphone in a work environment.



For example, in meetings and teaching situations.  Not just for playing music through.



Also, how well do they work with non-Apple devices, such as Windows 10?



Do you know of any alternatives?  They would have to be in-ear though.



Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated.



Thanks,



Martyn.
