    Better than the AirPod pros in my opinion
    This is exactly what I was looking for the AirPod gen 2 fit my ears perfectly! I prefer these over the gen 3 and the pro models. These are perfect for my workouts and runs they do not fall out ! You can’t beat the classics why change what ain’t broke? If you are hesitant about getting these don’t be just do it.

    After using the Apple AirPods (2nd Generation) for a few weeks, I can confidently say these earbuds are a game-changer. The sound quality is outstanding, delivering clear highs and deep bass that enhance my music and call experience. The AirPods paired with my iPhone instantly. Switching between devices was effortless.

    The battery life is impressive, giving me about 5-7 hours of continuous use and extended life with the charging case. The case itself is compact and charges quickly using the Lightning cable, which is very convenient.

    The “Hey Siri” feature and touch controls are incredibly handy. I love being able to control my music and calls hands-free.

    I needed a new pair of AirPods because my old ones finally bit the dust and these were exactly what I was looking for. They arrived quickly, in pristine condition, and work beautifully.
    If you are looking for noise cancellation, I would recommend a newer generation of Pros because these only shut out a bit of the noise unless you are absolutely blasting your music. Because they do not have the same design as the Pros with the squishy ear bud, they can sometimes get a little uncomfortable for long periods of wear. I don’t typically spend more than an hour or so with them in, so this is not an issue for me.

    I bought my 2nd gen Airpods back in 2019 and never expected for them to last this long. (In fact, I was a skeptic when Apple first announced how these things would stay in your ears.) Sounds quality hasn't diminished over time. It picks up ambient sound pretty well, sometimes making it hard for the caller to hear you. Sometimes it has a muted sound and the caller will say you sound muffled. So it's not perfect as a mic device but functions well enough most of the time that it's not a problem. Audio quality to me is great. Never have an issue with sound, music, or hearing a caller. They're not really noise-canceling, so if you're looking for that, you'll be disappointed. However, I've found that if I up the volume, it will drown out loud sounds. I don't like my volume extremely loud since I like to be able to hear what's going on around me, but for trains or large trucks rumbling by, the volume is excellent and still retains good quality. (Not that distortion sound that comes with playing music too loud.)

    Overall, I'd recommend. I've had this for nearly 5 years (bought it for myself as a Black Friday gift!), and I don't regret it. I see no need to upgrade to a Pro. Audiophiles may want surround sound type thing, in which I'd recommend a Pro, but 2nd gen works well enough for me (until prices drop for some of the newer ones).
