Tried changing the tips?

If you have uncommon ears, i'd stay away from Airpods, I bought the 3's recently and had to stop using them since they don't stay in my ear at all.

Using the largest tips. A bit uncomfortable, but does the job.

@manu1991 I think AirPods Pro would be a better fit, as they've silicon tips.

Yes the pros would be much better. Gen2 for them should be launched this year as well. It was a shame because the sound quality was really good, especially the spatial audio feature.

I have been using Denon ones for the last month and they are really good. Don't think they are available there though.

Well yeah, Apple has to introduce something revolutionary and exclusive to justify the high price tags.

I am assuming spatial audio is limited to Apple music?

 

[mikrotik]

Also, it is limited to Apple devices.

Wo tou hoga hi. I am expecting AirPods 2 Pro to cost over 25k. Even 30k+

The only thing that amuses me is that no other company is able to offer better mic quality in TWS series. AirPods are terrible when you have noises around, it starts cancelling your own voice along with the ambience noises, but in a controlled environment it works quite well.

Oh man. I was about to buy one. 99% for calls over zoom. Will be used with both Mac and Android. After reading the review, won't be getting it now.

What other choices are there in the market? Looking at <10k INR. The cheaper the better.
Anybody tried Jabra?

Do you only want wireless or wired can also work?

 

[a.c]

Would prefer wireless, as headphone jack becomes more and more scarce.
Truly wireless or even neckband ones would work.
