Apple: where it's not a problem with their hardware, it's a problem with your ears.

To be clear, it’s the same for me with any in-ear buds that don’t have the silicone flap thing that I first found on the Bose QuietComfort headphones.

That earbud style just fundamentally doesn’t work for some anatomical reason in a percentage of the population.

Good to know, I wanted to buy some AirPods but I'm another one that can only fit BOSE IEMs. I guess I'll pass.

Does anybody else with "wrong" ears used to get awful outside ear pain with the old all plastic iPhone earbuds? I physically cringe in pain just looking at them.
