Beyerdynamic AVENTHO 100 with ANC
Score: 88/100
Apple AirPods Pro 3
Score: 86/100Rankings

The beyerdynamic AVENTHO 100 is a premium on-ear headphone delivering industry-leading battery life, active noise cancellation and high-resolution codec support. While its build quality and feature set are top-tier, the ANC isn't the strongest in its class and occasional hiss can be distracting. Suited for users who value lightweight, foldable design and sound customization over maximum ANC performance.

Apple AirPods Pro 3 are premium true-wireless earbuds with advanced ANC, heart-rate sensing, live translation and personalized Spatial Audio powered by the H2 chip, providing up to 8 hours of ANC playback. The case is bulkier and full feature set requires the latest iOS, making them less universal. Best suited for ecosystem-locked users demanding top-tier ANC and health features.

Professional reviewers commend the AVENTHO 100 for its lightweight on-ear form factor, long battery life, high-resolution codec support and tactile physical buttons, while noting that its ANC is adequate but not best-in-class and that the button layout has a learning curve.
Everyday users consistently praise the comfort of the eco-leather padding, the impressive battery endurance and the balanced sound, but they commonly mention the need to get used to the button scheme and the occasional hiss heard in ANC or transparency modes when idle.

“padding softly envelops head/ears”

“no slipping”

“more exciting”




Professional reviewers commend the AirPods Pro 2 for its markedly improved active noise cancellation, the power of the H2 audio chip, and the immersive Spatial Audio experience, while noting that the product's marketing leans heavily on Apple-provided data and that the lack of interchangeable ear-tips may limit acoustic customization.
Everyday users consistently praise the strong ANC, long battery life, and comfortable fit, but they also voice frustration over the bulkier case, the necessity of staying within the Apple ecosystem for full feature access, and occasional fit challenges despite the multiple ear-tip sizes.
