How these two compare on everything we measure — where the AIs rank them, what reviewers and buyers say, and how they price. We don’t crown a winner — the differences are the point.
Fit Pro leads on the AI ranking, reviewer scores, buyer ratings and a lower price; QuietComfort Earbuds II doesn't take any single point outright — pick it only if those don't matter to you.

What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Wing tip keeps earbuds locked in place during movement and running better than most alternatives
- Active noise cancellation noticeably stronger than AirPods Pro with better seal
- H1 chip brings full Apple ecosystem integration including device switching and spatial audio
Reviewers push back
- Case feels cheap with rattly lid and lower build quality than the earbuds
- Wing tip creates initial tickling sensation that takes adjustment
- Earbuds protrude visibly from the side of the head
Reviewers agree these deliver strong sound and stay secure during activity, with better noise cancellation than AirPods Pro and fuller Apple ecosystem features than the Studio Buds, though the case feels cheaper than the earbuds themselves.
Reviewers praise
- Active noise cancellation ranks among the strongest available in earbuds, blocking substantial environmental sound
- Case and earbuds are noticeably smaller and more comfortable than the previous model
- Separate ear tips and stability bands allow customized fit combinations for different ear shapes
Reviewers push back
- No wireless charging despite the feature existing on the previous model
- Right earbud must remain active—left earbud cannot function independently when right is cased
- No multipoint Bluetooth connection to switch between two devices
Reviewers agree these deliver exceptional active noise cancellation and a significantly improved, more compact design over the previous model, but the removal of wireless charging and lack of independent single-earbud use frustrate at this tier.
Where reviewers split on Fit Pro: One reviewer finds the gray colorway unappealing while another chose it specifically for the cream interior pairing On QuietComfort Earbuds II: One reviewer found the fit stable enough for running while another experienced the left earbud working loose during runs
