Never used ANC with the APP since I got them because of this uncomfortable pressure, lightheadedness, nauseous, hard to explain sensation from it that others have also reported. Just tried it after downloading firmware version 2D15 and I was shocked to find that this uncomfortable sensation is gone. Anyone else notice this? ANC is fantastic now! Something there was definitely tweaked.
 
I too have noticed this. They likely implemented a better filter when transitioning out of the ANC range. Doing it to steeply results in ear drum suck (https://www.soundstagesolo.com/index.php/features/178-eardrum-suck-the-mystery-solved). Bose 700s were the first to implement that, glad to see is in the APPs
So that’s what it was doing lol. I been flying planes for a long time and come to think of it, that sensation feels oddly familiar now. Chewing gum or yawning didn’t help with the APP. Guess it was a constant overwhelming suck.
 
Sounds like Apple are fulfilling your requests.

Could you send them an email asking for AirPods Pro in black.

Thanks.
😂
I wish lol. I had my APP and Gen 2 painted black by a guy on Etsy named EvilHeadphones. Had very good reviews and relatively cheaper than Colorware. Plus he takes used AirPods which Colorware doesn’t do. PrettI decent job. There’s a little overspray whenever you open the lid on the case but the pods themselves are phenomenal and the case looks really good on the outside.

I think though that if and when sales eventually plateau, they’ll need to spice it up a bit and offer color options. Just my thoughts.

i still get the pressure but i think i have sensitive ears.
Appreciate your honesty, wkd.

Getting tired of people on here yelling about a product failure when there’s a possibility that the fault lies with them.
