Apple - AirPods 3

I bought them because my left app2 took a swim and lost noise cancelling. I am happy with a device that fits so nice and call quality with battery life is great. I didn't buy them to experience another level in sound. I don't know what people expect but over all for w the price, size and overall feeling it's great.

Yeah. Airpods work with Android phones they just don't support all the features (they don't show battery %, no spatial audio, no Find My Device). Still mostly usable.

my airpods have been great

If you already have the 3’s probably not. If you don’t, defo worth it.

airpods is by far your best bet; worth the money, takes at least 3years to notice the battery degrade (assuming you use it everyday).

The NRR rating in AirPods is a relatively recent update as well so I think most people still aren’t aware because for years they didn’t have any official rating.

I killed 2 sets of AirPods with too much sweat. I now use Shokz open move when I run or workout. I don’t think they sound anywhere near as good as the AirPods, but they have lasted much longer. I would be open to switching to something else myself so I’m curious to see what people say.

I got tired of my AirPods falling out so I've been bringing my bluetooth JBL speaker with me to the gym. No issues so far.

I would just get a new pair of air pods. I love mine. having the noise cancellation is handy when in louder areas. not to mention how seamlessly they work with your iphone.

Yes depending on the noise level, or just drowning out annoying background noise like fans/blowers

they are not a true replacement for ear plugs or muffs but do work surprisingly well for some stuff.
