"AirPod doesn’t even move during my run."
"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"I currently own a pair of airpods and use them every night and I sleep on my side."

"I also use my AirPods when I ride. I have no issues with them under both my full face and my Bell Rouge music sounds great, I sort of “feel” my bike as much as hear it but the NC makes it so a nice ride. I forget how loud my bike really is sometimes"
"If I then switch to FaceTime audio / video it becomes crystal clear."
"ANC and transparency are just so good"

"the battery life still lasts me entire 5 hour flights which is insane"
"I usually can get 4-5hrs ... then a 30 min charge takes them back to 100% ... it ’s rare I fly longer than 5hrs without a break"

"Mine are so degraded at this point though (four years on) that they can’t even hold a charge for 5 fucking minutes. ... Disgusting"

"But their mic performance on the outdoors is worse than trash."
"every time I tried talking to someone, they would say “they can hardly hear me “"
"whenever you use them for voice comms, the reproduced audio quality goes to the crapper — limited bandwidth. ... But it does not work well in clam shell mode with MacBook Air M1. (At least with mine it did not a few eons ago.)"

"I had airpods 3 they pick up EVERYTHING. ... You could fold a paper sheet and people will tell you they can't hear you over the noise"
"I’m interested in the 4s with ANC because if that reduces ambient noise (it doesn’t have to delete noise like my Bose QC headphones) then that would be fantastic"
"I can still hear street noise even with noise reduction at the highest level"

"Me too. And I use Apple Airpods. $$$$$"
"Apple is probably the most overpriced product on the market today, including the Airpods. ... you don't need to look very far to find other earbuds that are just as good, if not better, for half the price."
"This is very expensive in my country so check yours."
