I had the Jaybird X2 headphones and they always fell out with the silicon tips and the foam tips made it so I couldn't hear anything in my vicinity and they still fell out (especially while running). Also they felt kind of bad in my ears.

I now have AirPod Pros and I have none of the above problems. I waited a long time before buying them and was really surprised how well they fit (because of my experience with normal iPhone headphones and the Jaybird headphones).

I guess experiences differ depending on your on your ears and it's probably best if you try them first if you can.

When they announced AirPods 3 I checked the apple website every day since the release.

But they are not sold in Taiwan yet. So I bit the bullet and got the pros about 5 days ago. I hate my wife’s Sony headphones cos they hurt my ears, and figured the pros would last until the non silicon tip comes came out. But now I love the pros.

Yeah, I can actually see that. It took me a little bit of trial and error to get mine set up the way I like them... I actually have different sized tips in the left & right ears. I guess that's just anatomy for ya.
