            @geekcohen: Do you??? I bet its got a half eaten apple logo

            • @U30004: Yes I have an iPhone but I don't care what others have and its pointless when people post things like "I have a Samsung" when the product is specific for Apple. Its just pointless posting.

        • Lol

  • Wow very affordable 2 little buds. Apple must be making lots of profit….. /s

        You means fools and their apples?

          No, money. Because they don't part with Apple.

              @lostinsydney: Whatever you want to call it.

              Such earbuds are inherently bad due to sound leakage.

              Similar price point will bring about much more capable earbuds. Bowers & Wilkins PI5 and Technics AZ60 as an example.

              After reading a few posts. Appears to be consistent that anything negative on a Tesla or Apple deal will guarantee negative votes to reflect such (mental disorder?). Oh well.

                I personally like the hard plastic as I find silicone tip earbuds to be irritating.
                Sure, you’ll never get as good noise cancellation without a seal but it does a decent job.

                Apple deal will guarantee negative votes to reflect such (mental disorder?).

                Pretty much everything has a small toxic fan base which refuse to acknowledge any criticism for person/product/company/etc.
                For something large as Apple, it’s a bit more apparent because large customer base = proportionally large toxic fan base.
                It’s balanced out by toxic haters which cannot acknowledge any merit for person/product/company/etc.

                • @FireRunner: Not sure. Tend to see more on Tesla/Apple deals, which things get rather heated, often to the extend of exchanging personal insults.

                  • @Flutterby: Big brands like Tesla and Apple, not surprisingly they have a relatively large hater/fanboi base.
                    I think in most cases it’s the toxic haters that instigate the battles with a contentious comment which degenerates into personal insults.
                    I also think the arguments cement their own belief/point of view for both sides which makes the hater/fanboi even more toxic

    Just an FYI, these do not have silicon eartips to provide a proper seal against the outside, so the ANC algorithms will be rowing against the tide since more sound will be leaking in from the outside. If you want silicon eartips, you have to go for the Pro model.

    Reviews say the ANC still works alright, but they are obviously being held back by not having a proper seal.

    Just thought people should know this before spending a few hundred dollars on wireless earbuds.

    • Lol. Why did u get negged?

      • 2 is not few and few is not 2 (didn't neg btw)

    • +2

      The lack of said rubber seal is the reason why people want this.

  • I was sceptical about it too but the ANC works extremely well on these.

  • I have a set of these any they work extremely well.

  • I want good noise cancellation so researched carefully and read lots of reviews claiming 'great noise cancellation' so I bought the first Apple AirPods Pro for $351 in May 2020 - got them home, tried all the different size silicone ear tips - none resulted in any noticeable noise cancellation

    I wore them out walking around the city - simply waiting at a street crossing listening to a podcast I would have to turn up the volume to hearing-damaging just to be able to hear the spoken podcast over the noise of passing vehicles

    I came home, put them back in the box, and didn't touch them for another 3 years - when I gave them to a friend's family kids.

    So for good noise cancellation, I found Apple AirPods Pro to be a complete WOFTAM.

    What I continue to use every day is my Bose QC SC - for deal price $164 in May 2024, recently $250 - deals come around regularly …

  • Why is every other ebay listing sub $200? it's the same airpods 4 with ANC?

    • Good chance they could be fakes. I bought a set of second generations on eBay and they were remarkable fakes, even showed the exact same way on my iPhone with a serial number that says in warranty with Apple but something was off with the sound quality and the only way I discovered them to be fakes was weighing each ear bud
