I have really small ears and ear canals, and AirPods Pro’s are generally uncomfortable (both 2 and 3). They also suck at staying in my ears which defeats the purpose of them being gym buds as well. I’ve tried all kinds of ear tips to no avail. I vastly prefer headphones but unfortunately I have a hair type that gets ridiculous looking headphone lines in it when I wear them. So here I am. I’m hoping for comfort and then features next. ANC would be nice if it’s good, otherwise I guess I might consider wired if I can get much better sound. AirPods don’t sound great when I’m used to my HD 6XX lol.
You might look at “clip on” earbuds. It’s a new form factor in the past few years that doesn’t have a part that goes in the canal
Unless they’ve changed dramatically, they’re not new, just back in fashion. I remember those being around 20 years ago. Of course, they all had cables back then.
I worry about sound quality and everyone hearing what I’m listening to with these but I’ll take a look at them. Maybe they’ve gotten better since last I looked
