Gotta say I am blown away by airpods. It’s too good! Paired with my 16 pro max this is a treasure!

Did switching to memory foam or third party tips help you with the fit or them becoming more comfortable?

I lost mine right before departure, I had to buy new ones because I didn’t want other cheaper models or other brands of headphones. These are too cool to exchange them for something else.

Coming from 2nd gen, the sound feel super muffled, kind of flat with no punch. Is this just the way these are, it is is possible I need to exchange them?

I am conflicted between the Airpods Pro 3 and Powerbeats pro 2.

I intend to use them for walking and workouts primarily but also some casual/work related purposes. All in all, a good all round experience without trading off much in sound and microphone quality.

A question for existing PBP2 users, has the iOS 27 update added an equalizer for the PBP2 and has it done it any good in terms of audio quality experience or any feature worth mentioning? All reviews online are a year old with no real updates.

Also, any rumors about Powerbeats pro 3 in the near around future? Given the Powerbeats track record, there still are a couple of years until that happens, but any news for near future?

Costco now sells $100 Uber East gift Cards for $80.
I bought two for $159.99
Costco has a deal with Uber Eats now of 20% off your first 3 orders if $100 or more.
If you combo those together you get the AirPods Pro 3 with 2 years of apple care + for $160.
Can’t be beat
But does need the Costco membership

I have been using AirPods for years... past weekend, I bought an AirPods 5. Left and right volume is not equal!!!! I trie my other AirPods (3 and 4), they were all balanced.
I am bringing it back to the store for exchange!
how unusual is this that volume is not balanced!

i recently switched from samsungs galaxy buds 3 pro to airpods pro 3 (cuz i switched from a s22 to 17 pro)

maybe it’s because i’ve never used airpods before but i actually really enjoy them a lot?
got mine from staples for 289.99 CAD 2 weeks go

I’m not sure what I’m looking for. You know when you’re watching something and using AirPods for audio and you look left or right and the audio is like following your head movement like the screen is in one spot. Like surround sound i guess. How do i turn it off. My Disney+ does it but apps like YouTube don’t.

Hey everyone,
I currently use the AirPods 4, but I'm thinking about making the jump to the AirPods Pro 3. Money isn't an issue here, I just want to know if the upgrade actually delivers a noticeably better experience or if the Pro hype is mostly a gimmick.
My main use cases are:
Office: Handling calls, listening to music, and casual conversations throughout the day.
Gym: Working out and staying locked in during training sessions.
For those who switched or tested both:
Comfort & Ear Tips: Do the silicone ear tips stay comfortable for long stretches (especially during workouts or continuous office wear) compared to the tip-less design?
ANC & Transparency: How big is the step-up in noise cancellation when trying to block out gym music or background office chatter? Is Transparency/Adaptive mode seamless enough for quick conversations without taking them out?

Hello I bought the AirPod 4 normal without ear pieces about a year ago and I accidentally washed them in the case in my jeans. It was in for about 20 minutes before I got them out but the sound is like ass. Will the sound come back fully, I can only really hear out of the right side, the left is very low. Does anybody know what I could do to fix it or is it fucked permanently.

Just picked up a new pair or AirPods Pro 3 and they are leaps and bounds better in almost every scenario from my Gen 1’s that I had washed a couple of times… except in 1 area.

I have noticed that when in transparency mode with no music playing, the noise around me almost sounds robotic. Almost as if I’m putting a conch shell up to my ear to “listen to the ocean”. Is this normal? My 1st gen’s didn’t sound like this, they sounded exactly like my environment around me.

Any troubleshooting would be great, or advice on getting an exchange! Thanks!

Best

I bought the airpods 3 pro with the hope of buying the best, in 1 year I took them for service 3 times, and each time they returned them to me new. However, I am not solving the problem since usually after 3/4 months they begin to whistle and I hear metallic sounds. I can't take it anymore, as soon as they make them new to me I'll sell them on ebay

I use my AirPods 4 ANC on both my iphone 17 and Macbook Pro. The bluetooth settings on both are set to "When last connected to...". But several times each week I will be listening to music on them from my phone and without me touching anything on either device they will disconnect from the phone and automatically connect to the Mac.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there some additional setting I don't know about? It's driving me crazy.

My AirPods 5 make wind-like and crackling noises when ANC is on, even in quiet environments. The noise disappears when ANC is off.

Is this normal, or should I get them checked under warranty?

Can somebody help me to fix my AirPods pro 1st generation as I am facing a problem where when my both the pair of AirPods reaches 50%, my left AirPods suddenly become dead and comes to 1% battery, whereas my right pair already have 50% of battery left. I noticed this twice and now I’m really worried, and I want to fix this problem as everything works fine before 50% but as they reach 50%, my left becomes dead and its battery degrades faster then my right pair.
I have already tried cleaning my AirPods and charging it upto 100 percent, but still, I am facing this problem

is it worth it or NAAH?

I bought this airpods 4 almost a year ago. used to clean them with cloth in between. didnt observe the charging tips though. this is the charging tip of right side. suddenly this one is showing the issue of charging. It doesnt get charged properly. I have to place it in case and twist here n there to get it connected to charging after the manual positioning it starts to charge. i just went out of warranty preriod a month ago. does anyone faced same issue? if yes then what was the solution.

I currently use my AirPods Pro 2 to study and have found that they get quite uncomfortable during long study sessions, and I was wondering if a pair of over-ear headphones would be better. Is the sound quality better on the AirPods Max 2s compared to the Pro 2s? And I have also been debating whether I should get the Max 2s or the Beats 360 headphones, but I have seen a lot of criticism about those hissing and other things. Any suggestions?

I'm trying so desperately to make these work. ANC feels miraculous and the sound quality blows me away. I truly enjoy listening to music on these things and they've made my commute so much better. Thing is, I still have 25 days to return them and they cause pain in my right ear only.

I've tried smaller eartips, larger eartips. Pain either way. At first I thought the pain was in my tragus, but then after a couple more days of use it became clear it's coming from my "crus helix."

Is there anything to be done? I'm trying angling it different ways, I don't know if it's helping or not.

Is this a common problem or just me? I bought the Sony WF XM6 as well as the airpods pro 3 during the recent amazon sale, I was planning to return the one I didn't like. The xm6 are more comfortable but the sound quality is meh to my ears. The airpods are glorious but painful.

Thinking of just returning both and going back to my Galaxy buds + sadly :'(

Should I try to hold out for the Airpods Pro 4's, hoping Apple will fix their design errors?

Before buying these, I was looking at reviews, and I hated the way they looked on peoples ears as they stuck out so much, but when I wear mine they practically touch my jaw anyone else maybe I just have deep ears or something lol

Did i get a good deal? I bought a used APP3 off fb marketplace with warranty until feb 2027 and i payed 130 for it and yes it’s genuine the precision find my works along with the ANC/Transparency.
