AirPods 5

With ANC and volume control now available on the basic AirPods what’s the story for the AirPod Pros now? An obsolete product line?

Just to mention, saw some people saying Apple was working on AirPods with little cameras in them. Not this time, at least.

A worthy upgrade to a miracle product . Just a couple decades it was a sci-fi fantasy and we all can enjoy it . I get the bible in my ear all night at bed time and books while I work and walk around the property. Great to see the price cut .

They teased an AppleCare One Family plan and never explained it. wtf

Until they solve the ~250ms latency, which would require replacing bluetooth with a lower latency option, I'm not interested.

Been using the new Siri since June. ChatGPT voice is still superior!

Please Apple let me easily swap out Siri for chatGPT voice! Work together .. buy them or something. Their voice conversation tech is superior and can help save lives when driving!

So weird they keep saying "Open-ear" and not ear buds. I kept thinking open air headphones which are not the same category.

Another year of disappointment for me. Airpods gen 1 and 2 were the only buds I could find that fit in my funky ears perfectly. The new shapes just fall right out unless I'm constantly adjusting them. Apple may have found a more universal fit, but I'm not part of their universe.

wrong title, should be AirPods 4

As a huge Apple fan i hate to say this but $20 iems sound better

[dead]

im still bitter they rejected my airprods pro warranty claim because it was a month after they stopped accepting warranty for a known failure mode where the internal mic unglued itself and ruined the ANC.

the apple tech confirmed it had the issue but it was too long outside of their coverage. Like... if it has a known manufacturing defect with a defined timeline, that means i basically rented the damn things.

their only remediation was like 10% off the latest airpods. which is just a massive slap in the face.

are these the airpods with the ai cameras? if so no thanks.

Article reads like an ad.

I can't get over how Apple is getting everyone to refer to them with proper pluralization, ie AirPods 5 vs AirPod 5's.

I rock a Redmi ANC earphones because.. they work and theyre like $20. Unlike these overengineered sound makers that breaks the moment you drop them.
