Never had AirPods, but almost certainly pulling the trigger on the new ones if they’re in black or space gray. Hope I can run with them and not lose them.
Wish they had an in ear version with silicone tips![]()
I want to thumbs-up this post 100 times.Wish they had an in ear version with silicone tips![]()
I understand that they don’t fit everyone but I’m a 35 year old women and they fit me perfectly.They don’t come close to fitting in my ears. They fall out just from me eating, never mind walking around. Wish they’d adopt silicone tips. I gave mine to my little girl, and they fit her fine. The idea that one size fits a 10 year old girl and me with my giant earholes is absurd.

I guess yours are broken, my AirPods have plenty of bass![]()

You can already buy third party silicone tips and wings.Yes. They fit some people. But think about it - how could it be possible that the same EarPod would fit perfectly in the ears of every 10 year old girl, every 35 year old woman, and every 6’6” 60 year old man? Ear holes are different sizes. This is why most earphones, at least those that are designed to take sound quality seriously, have silicon tips, and most of those are replaceable with different sized tips.
I’ve tried. They don’t work for me. And most don’t fit in the case. So you are constantly peeling them off and putting them on again.You can already buy third party silicone tips and wings.
While it is easy to look at AirPods memes, videos, and tweets as harmless fun or jokes, such a view misses what’s really taking place. AirPods have become part of culture. A product which the tech press declared too awkward-looking to ever go mainstream has now made headphones with wires look out of style.
People aren't buying AirPods for sound quality. They are extremely convenient and comfortable. Working out with them is great. They sound fine for what they are. I have never used them and been upset with the sound quality.
They used to make a wired version of that. They retailed for $79 USD. I'm not sure if that proved to be a loss or profit for them. They were bearable, but not my favorite pair of headphones. They were just a step-up in audio quality from the EarPods.Wish they had an in ear version with silicone tips![]()
Uhhh not necessarily lmao.
They sell the old and new Apple TV. Old and new iPhones.
I mean all the Beats products are always up to date, but we’ll see.

Why sell them for $99 when people are absolutely eating them up at $159? You don’t want to spend $60 extra dollars on them? Lol.
Also, these AirPods memes are driving sales even higher.
It’s the pleasure of no cords at all. Nothing to get caught on, nothing rubbing my neck, nothing tugging at my ears. It’s also so easy to start listening. Just put them in, and they’re already on and paired and ready to go.
It’s amazing how pleasurable it is not to have to deal with anything. It’s really to only thing Apple’s released in a long time that just makes me happy every time I use it. Everything just works.

It's very simple for someone who knows sound; Airpods have bass roll off. Study above linked FR curves to get the proof. Sound of Airpods is thin with screamy highs. Apple needs new updated airpods soonest...
These couldn't come any quicker, my day 1 AirPods are barely holding battery anymore and are really finicky at charging. I've been holding out.
The info you’re after is in a previous MacRumors story, linked in the last page of this article. From that earlier article about AirPods being found in a regulatory database:Why MOST IMPORTANT info is absent?:
Will they support Bluetooth 5 ... as last iPhones do? (More data, longer range, reduced consumption).
I don't understand poor attention on this "detail", when the product is a Bluetooth connected device. Well... perhaps a matte finish is what AirPods users need mostly, I suppose![]()
The AirPods... have completed the Bluetooth Qualification Process.
Apple's hardware version number is listed as REV1.1, compared to the REV1.0 hardware listing of the original AirPods. The new AirPods connect to an iPhone, iPad, or Mac using Bluetooth 5.0, according to the details provided, but little else about them can be gleaned from the listing.
Well, it could be longer battery life and/or noise cancelling...or a host of other improvements that aren't design or audio-performance related.Well, yes. Rather pointless otherwise.
This was just a couple days before leaving for China, so going online wasn't an option (besides, I did check Amazon and there were no AirPods available - at least not list price).What is your definition of a long time?
The 6s is current tech
