I've oddly resisted getting these from gen 1 airpods
I don't like IEM feeling
Quick overview: They sound amazing [And are significantly louder v.s the regular AirPods], the customizable gel ear tips work very well, the active noise cancellation is absolutely incredible, (Apple nailed it here). However, they are totally different from the regular AirPods In terms of fitment. The interior design I found to be uncomfortable after 30 minutes of wearing, where unfortunately I had to return them. With the interior design, it forces pressure on the surrounding cartilage around the ear, which is what seems a lot of users Had similar experiences with
What Was interesting, I thought I was a minority, apparently it’s a much more commonality to cross for those who experience the same thing I did.
The difference being, the AirPods ‘rest’ in your ear, where the Pros actually Incorporate pressure.
Side note:
I also purchased the Galaxy buds Plus (~$100 cheaper, similar to the AirPods, adjustable wing tips/additional gel tips) excellent little item, but I found the exact same result causing discomfort. Returned
The wireless case is optional for an additional purchase, but personally, I don’t see the value in that, as I’m perfectly fine using a lightning cable.
