5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant upgrade from gen 1 or 2
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 July 2024
Style Name: MagSafe Charging CaseConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase
The media could not be loaded.
 I had my old Apple AirPods Gen 1 for 7 years and was very happy with them. Unfortunately, they recently stopped working, so I decided it was time for an upgrade. I was torn between the Gen 2 and Gen 3 because I heard the fit on the Gen 3 was different. However, I can confidently say that, for me, the Gen 3 fit even better. They are lighter and perform better overall, with 6 hours of battery life and spatial audio. I love them! The spatial audio makes it feel like you're not even wearing headphones. Theres no noise cancelation other than the fact you have something in your ears and the volume is still controlled on your phone, however very responsive

If you're considering an upgrade, I highly recommend going for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Overall, But Weirdly Shaped…
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 May 2023
Style Name: Lightning Charging CaseConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase
I’ll start this off by clarifying that I’m upgrading from the 1st Gen Air Pods. So far, my experience with the 3rd Gens is that the volume and sound quality is a lot better than I had anticipated. I can definitely hear more bass coming through than I could on the 1st Gens, so that’s always good. There was always something so frustrating about turning your volume to the max and not having the song or audio be as loud as you want it to be, but the 3rd Gens do not give me the same problem. Connecting wasn’t a struggle, had a strange issue that quickly resolved itself, so now they connect flawlessly. So far the battery life has been very good as well. You can also connect your Air Pods to the “Find My” App as well, so if you ever lose a Pod or anything, you should be able to locate them using that app.

The only gripe that I have with the 3rd Gen Air Pods is the shape of the Pods themselves. They don’t sit comfortably in my ears and I find myself constantly adjusting them to make sure they don’t come too loose or fall out entirely. It’s usually when I’m talking or smiling, or making an exaggerated expression like laughing or yawning that I feel them slipping out slightly and require readjustment. I never had this problem with the 1st Gen Air Pods so it’s quite disappointing. I don’t understand why they didn’t settle with a better fitting shape than what they ended up with, but I’m hoping that I’ll simply adjust to the shape over time.

Worth your money? For everything else that I mentioned…Connectivity, Battery Life, Sound Quality, Volume, I would say so. Just be aware that you may have to readjust your Air Pods so they don’t come too loose. If you’re very focused on a comfortable listening experience and don’t want to fuss about readjusting them, honestly go for the 1st Gen Air Pods. They’re cheaper, and very solid for what they are! Sound quality, volume and battery life is still good, just slightly less than what the 3rd Gen offers which is to be expected.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fitment is not great
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 April 2024
Style Name: MagSafe Charging CaseConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase
As many have said, as the shape this earbuds have been designed the fitment might not be as snug as the previous gen buds. I find the earbuds move out of place and become loose if my jaw is moving (i.e. eating/chewing).
Other than that, same great Apple quality as usual.

4.0 out of 5 stars Replacement for Gen 2 - Work well, no noise cancellation
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 June 2024
Style Name: MagSafe Charging CaseConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase
These airpods replaced my gen 2 pro ones which started to whistle! They are almost identical to my previous pair - they work well with my iphone, pairing was simple and straightforward, Battery life is fairly good. Comfortable to wear. Decent sound with a good mix of the tones - bass ok. There is no noise cancellation on these however - only the pro model has that feature, i was not aware of this when i purchased these. Also beware that you need to pay extra for the wireless charging case.

I use these AirPods daily at work as well as at the gym & whilst running. They resist water/sweat which is handy & the charge lasts for many uses from the case. If you lose them you can locate them with your phone. The set up is super easy & sound quality is excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sehr schöne Kopfhörer
Reviewed in Germany on 12 June 2024
Style Name: Lightning Charging CaseConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase
Ich benutze diese Kopfhörer seit 3 Jahren, und zwar so gut wie jeden Tag. Ich bin damit oft durch Regen gelaufen, gefahren, mir sind die Kopfhörer unzählige Male runtergefallen, das Ladecase hat auch schon einige Stürze hinter sich.
Die Akkulaufzeit ist immernoch sehr hoch, das Aufladen geht auch super schnell.
Abgesehen von der Haltbarkeit haben diese Kopfhörer für ihre Größe auch noch einen super Klang, einziges Manko an den AirPods sind für mich die Mikrofone, die hier verbaut wurden. Sprachnachrichten hören sich hier so an, als würde man durch ein kaputtes Walkie-Talkie sprechen.
Dennoch für mich sehr gute Kopfhörer!
