I've used the crap out of my Airpod Pros (I think they're the 2s) since I got them for Christmas a couple years ago. The sound quality is pretty good, but the convenience is unmatched. The handoff between iphone, ipad, and macbook is nothing short of impressive.

shite, I forgot it's cool to hate Apple now. #bluetextforever

Which is what I use and they're very solid for the price (around $300). For flights I have a pair of Master and Dynamic headphones with noise cancelling.

The pod type of headphones bother my ears so I use buds. I have a pair of wireless Sennheiser CX Sports that sound pretty good. Less than $90.

I always like the Bose and that little hook makes them stay in your ear. But I can’t get the wireless ones to stay in worth a shite.

I love my AirPods. They connect seamlessly which is one of the most important things for me. Im not an audiophile, though. Mostly listen to podcasts

The Leveno gaming headphones that you can buy on TEMU are the best earpods I've ever worn.

Can you provide a link to these quality songs you’re talking about so we can sompare. Sounds like you’re full of shite.

The quality of AirPods is very good, but they still aren’t the best.

Lots of brands, including many that you can get for $30 are better products. You can’t compare them to even the cheapest true in ear speakers.


I got turned on to soundcore a few years ago and have 1 pair that is 6 years old and working perfectly fine without a drop in performance, sound, or battery.

Got an updated second pair for the car and I have less issues than my boss who swears by (but cusses regularly) his AirPods.

It’s a premium product that just isn’t worth it.

I don't buy AirPods because they sound the best. I buy them because they sound decent, switch very smoothly between my other devices and help me find them when i lose them.

But I use Tozo T10s for the gym and rowing at home. $24 and sound infinitely better than AirPods.

I’d imagine fine but I use over the ear headphones on planes.

I use the Tozos for being active for the most part. I’ve even swam with them. Completely waterproof.

If the only purpose of earbuds is to listen to music, there are many better options.

Apple makes a complementary product for their phones - and that’s their main purpose. They are traceable and intuitive for the phone.

I don’t disagree that their sound quality isn’t elite, but the options they provide is unique.
