Perfect , answers the questions I had about sizing , def going to buy a pair eventually.
If it works with Qi chargers then it’ll work with MagSafe, just not “magnetic” …..the same as the Gen2 wireless. Stop worrying everyone
Which were great when wearing a winter cap and gloves.No comeback of tap controls apparently.
I do not understand why they don't have some matte black AirPods...makes no sense.
Apple today introduced the AirPods 4, which will come in two models: a base model for $129 and a model with Active Noise Cancellation for $179.
AirPods 4 feature a big improvement in sound quality with dynamic head tracking for a more immersive media experience. Both models include the H2 chip and support features like Voice Isolation and Siri Interactions, the latter of which lets users nod or shake their head to respond to Siri announcements.
For more controls, AirPods 4 feature a force sensor on the stem to play or pause media and mute or end phone calls. The case for the AirPods 4 is the smallest case yet on any AirPods model, and it features USB-C charging with up to 30 hours of total battery life.
In addition to USB-C charging, users can also use an Apple Watch charger or Qi-certified charger to refuel the AirPods 4 charging case.
In regards to the second AirPods 4 model, it features Active Noise Cancellation with upgraded microphones and advanced computational audio helping to reduce environmental noise. This model also has a Transparency mode, Adaptive Audio, and Conversation Awareness.
For both AirPods 4 models, Apple has refined the design of the AirPods to create the most comfortable AirPods ever, resulting in a shape that "naturally fits even more users around the world."
Both AirPods 4 models are available to pre-order now in the United States, and will be available starting September 20.

They do fit better especially if you fit them with the Comply foam tips which fit better and are far more comfortable than the Apple silicon tips. They last a long time. I only replace mine when earwax starts showing up in the charging case. The trick when you start out with the Comply foam tips is to get the pack with all 3 sizes to determine which one works best in your ears, I use the medium sized one, and with your next order just get the size that fits correctly.
The Pros 2 WILL get the hearing aid feature. The FDA approved the feature today. Now it's up to Apple to release the needed updates which will likely happen in October.
That's my concern to is really the fit of the AP4's. If they don't fit my ear it doesn't matter what new features it has.
WHOA! Tell me more about these. I was considering getting the new AirPod 4 + ANC because I hate the gross chemical smell of the silicone tips on Airpod Pro 2. The smell stays in your ears (quite noticeable after wiping the ear canal with a tissue or Q-tip), and worse, I got a terrible ear infection after wearing the APpro2 on a very long travel day. They irritated my ear canal which then became swollen and painful, requiring a hospital visit while on vacation.
My hope is they don't cause my ears to ache like the 3s. My 4s with ANC should be here on Friday and I'll do an update on whether I'll be keeping or returning them
I have found that, when you get new devices in your ear, there can be some discomfort for a few days as your ears get used to the different pressure points. After that, they often adjust and no longer ache. It can be the same for new glasses.
I have never noticed any outgassing from Comply foam tips and that includes the Comply sleeves I use on my Shure earphones. I have used them with the Shures for about 10 years. There is a trick with the Pro2 tips. Keep a small bottle of medical-grade alcohol. Keep your used ones in the alcohol it will clean and disinfect them. Then put them out to dry for several days. They may not be usable but you are not out anything if they are not.
There was some slight magnetism on my case to a MagSafe but wasnt able to support its own weight
It is apparent you are allergic to silicon. I know RN's that are allergic to silicon that is why you do not find silicon surgical gloves anymore they are all latex.
