That's what I want, but the case is so massive - hoping a gen 2 comes out at some point. The AirPods are perfect for that 5th pocket on my work pants as I use them for work all the time.
Got a tip for us?

I think if you buy from the Apple Store, there is no trade-in value for the AirPods Pro. There might be from other companies though.
I have had my AirPods 1 replaced at least 5 times by Apple so kind of curious what version 2 will be like.
Almost feature to feature identical but have no spatial audio so no thank.I'd like to see how these are reviewed compared to the new QuietComfort Earbuds II from Bose. The noise cancellation is what is important to me with the buds.

When it comes to high-quality noise cancelling earbuds, no one compares to the inventors of noise cancellation. Check out the QuietComfort Earbuds II.www.bose.com
The case is trash tier. I am honestly surprised Apple (via beats) could feel comfortable producing such a thing.
Are you sure it is not 13-17% better? Or 30-31% better? Please share your sophisticated calculations with us, unless of course, it would be too much for our simple minds ...
I'm most interested in the updates that Apple made to the case.
I will go away from the Beats Fit Pro because the right one doesnt't fit in my right ear properly, left is fine. Quite awkward. Touch control is a real plus for me too, I always hoped for it when I had the first gen Pros.

I understand it's subjective but some of it is down to people not being able to manage their own expectations correctly. There is hype with any tech product, doesn't matter which brand, I'm very happy with my iPhone 14 Pro, On Sunday through to Monday I got 34.5 hours on one charge, the 120 Hz screen is a great upgrade from the 12 Pro that I was coming from and I'm a fan of the AOD and Dynamic Island. The camera is a noticeable upgrade, especially video.
Interesting from a UX perspective to see the unboxer missing the bright green direction-of-removal arrows at several points and just fumbling the packaging open. Aside from that, watching my kettle boil is more riveting.
FYI - I just received XS size ear tips and using them on my 1st Gen AirPods Pro with no issues. My ears always struggled with the S/M/L tips so for these to work is a game changer and now can enjoy my 1st Gen Pros!!!
Case isn't perfect, no. But the APP wouldn't seal well or stay in my ears-same with Air Pods. The Beats Pro Fit just work-running, hiking, etc. I never worry about fit or falling out. With the same ANC ability it's perfect fit for me..
That’s what I need. My APPs keep falling out, and I use aftermarket tips. I just need that case to shrink, but I’ve got my eye on the beats. What’s the bass like, is it overbearing?
It's marginally heavier, barely noticeable. I held them in each hand last week.
