I have old AirPods 2, and they are the only ones that don't fall out of my ears. Recently they have had a problem with charging and I am thinking about buying AirPods 4. The regular version costs about $120, the version with ANC costs about $180. My budget is limited. Should I buy the version with ANC or will the regular version be enough, since the old headphones are now satisfactory in almost everything, and noise cancellation on the street is not always a good idea. Also, a question for those who had gen 2 and now gen 4, how do the headphones fit in the ears, do they fall out or do they sit well? I am not considering other versions, since the canal versions of the headphones fall out for me.

P.S. There is an option to buy a replica with ANC and all the functions for $40, the price is very attractive. I wonder if anyone has experience with such headphones?
