Ear Pods

I was just thinking about this the other day — Apple’s been using braided cables on most of their newer stuff now, and honestly they hold up way better than the usual rubber ones. If they made braided USB-C EarPods, it’d fix the main issue I’ve had with them — the cable always ends up wearing out. Plus, you wouldn’t have to shell out for AirPods. They’re great, but honestly pretty expensive. I’d actually buy a pair just for that tbh. What about you guys? Would you still go for wired if they did this, or is everyone fully on wireless now? submitted by /u/ivishalpathak to r/airpods [link] [comments]

Every now and often people ask for the "best" earbuds on here. There isn't a single best pair, BUT there are definitely some earbuds which you could consider the best value. I'm a huge sound enthusiast myself, so I decided to make a no-bullshit tier list with details about each. Oh also, I wrote this entirely myself! No SlopGPT used or anything. I've tried a lot of those over the years, so this post is mostly my personal opinion!! Also note that this tier list is based on VALUE aka bang for the buck. S Tier - best bang for the buck $199 - Apple AirPods Pro 3 are literally the best noise cancelling earbuds ever measured. If you don't have an iPhone, you'll miss out on a lot of their features, so keep that in mind. $79 - OnePlus Buds 4 - doesn't do anything amazing but does everything VERY well, which is honestly more useful day-to-day. $75 - The EarFun Air Pro 4+ are a VERY solid option for just $75. Long battery and sounds like something twice the price. Probably the most loved earbuds on this sub and for a reason lol. $49 - CMF Buds Pro 2 - there's a little dial on the case that controls volume and ANC and it's way more useful than it sounds. Great bass, good price, fun to use. A Tier - easy to recommend $249 - The Technics EAH-AZ100 are one of the best sounding earbuds i've come across, and the 10+ hour battery wipes the floor with every other flagship. if you care about music more than anything else, just get these. $79 - Soundcore Liberty 4 NC - the noise cancelling on these is insane for the price. They often go on sales so you can get them for even cheaper. $77 - Nothing Ear (2024) - sounds really clean and detailed if you're into that - it's not very bass-heavy though. $30 - JBL Vibe Beam - cheap, works, doesn't try to be anything it's not. Grab these if you just need something wireless and don't care about EQ or features. B Tier - good, but kinda expensive $298 - Sony WF-1000XM6 - the best do-everything earbuds if you're on Android - premium sound and tons of settings to mess with. They're quite expensive though. $249 - Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 - one of the best premium choices for any kind of sports or working out. Sound doesn't match price, but they won't fall off your ears. A cheaper alternative is the Soundcore Aerofit. C Tier - situational $249 - Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 - those have some Sennheiser-specific problems if I remember correctly, only worth it if you actually notice the difference between good and great audio. $299 - Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) - 6 hours of battery at this price is rough, and the sound is very bass-heavy which isn't for everyone. --- I'm mostly using the Technics nowadays though. I got used to them and they kinda work for everything. What do you guys use? submitted by /u/RubbyGT to r/Earbuds [link] [comments]

When my 3year old niece swallowed my sister’s left AirPod, everyone started worrying right away. I was trying to lighten the situation, so I connected the AirPod to my phone and put my ear on her stomach to check if I could hear it. Surprisingly, I actually did hear a little sound coming from inside her, which made the moment a bit funny for me. But the people around us didn’t really find it amusing. They all looked at me like I wasn’t taking things seriously at all. I was just trying to calm the mood, but instead I ended up being the only one laughing while everyone else was still stressing about the AirPod inside her. submitted by /u/reolives to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

After a lot of charging and connectivity problems, now one of my AirPods broke completely, I guess after it fell on the ground. No nerves anymore, so I got my hands on some old-school EarPods. Let’s see for how long. Anyone in the same boat? submitted by /u/StatusSure5153 to r/airpods [link] [comments]

If your AirPods Pro 2 are more than a year old, spend $10 on new ear tips from Apple (not the junk you see on Amazon). I just did this and it’s like my AirPods are brand-new again! Both the bass and noise cancelling are dramatically improved. submitted by /u/logicalvue to r/apple [link] [comments]

We all heard the Saxophone. Decided to take a closer look at the drop pod and it is hard to make out but the shape DEFINITELY different to your standard Super Earth issued hellpods. Thoughts? submitted by /u/Sea-Special-1730 to r/Helldivers [link] [comments]
