AirPods v4 are a DOWNGRADE from AirPods V2

[Juan007]

I have been using v1 and v2 since the product was first launched, always they last a year or two then run into charging issues.

This time I bought a v4 for the first time. On the plus side, the sound quality is WAY BETTER, and they seem to sync up to the watch much, much faster and reliably than the v2. Great!

But this means NOTHING because the v4s are super loose and I have to adjust them 10 times or more during a 1 hour run so they don't fall out!!

What kind of garbage product did Apple release that doesn't even stay in your ear? v1/v2 was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT, I never had to even think about it falling out, no problems for 1000s of hours.

v4 I can't even go 10 minutes without adjustment!!!!

What is your problem Apple????

Any solutions here?

That's a load of manure. The product is defective by design. They sold out the elite athletes like myself who built the reputation of this product in order to make things better for Fatty Fred who sits at his desk all day or grandma who runs 12 minute miles. If you are doing any serious athletics the product DOES NOT WORK.

I'll try the attachments I guess. I have never been this led down by Apple before. If Steve Jobs read your post he would have shown you your walking papers in five seconds.

Steve Jobs is rotting in the ground and isn't going to do squat to anyone. You asked for a possible solution and I provided one. Apple isn't going to redesign the AirPods just because a small subset of users have fitment issues. Powerbeat Pro 2 seem to be focused on athletic use and have hooks that keep them in much better than any AirPod during exercise. Maybe you should try those

The OP is being sarcastic. No one could be that dumb.

They're a downgrade to you and your specific ear shape.
