What is the most significant improvements you feel with these tips?
*
The material is similar to Comply Foam, not this kind.

After close to 3 hours of testing, it blocked 70% of the sound in transparency mode. If ANC mode on, I can't hear anything except minimal sound from my mechanical keyboard.

It works as what custom ear tips should be as long can get the perfect sealing.

Thanks for the explanation, pretty new to these customisable tips. Switched over from the Sony WF-1000XM3 to the Airpods Pro over the weekend and already I love the fitting of the Airpods Pro in my ears. With the foam tips, it would definitely help me be more comfortable with them when exercising

Nice, welcome to the club.

The silicone to me is actually good enough but since I didn't try any custom tips before so why not give it a go. Just that, I wouldn't use it for sports since i'm not sure how durable will be if mix with sweat.

Hello, this is the kickstarter project right? Recommended?
*
Yup, it's from Kickstarter.

The tips are pretty similar to Comply Foam, probably 85~90%. With the price I paid for it, I would suggest you to get Comply instead since the shipping for CharJenPro might take a while.

Update: After using it throughout my commuting time including outdoor and in train, it blocked 60% of sound in transparency mode and 95% in ANC mode.

What’s that? Where to add?
Yeah I guess, for calls it’s good. Sound quality I have a Sony one that’s better, but it’s a wired one so can’t compare.

The noise cancellation however gives me a strong pressure into my ears and head, very uncomfortable. I used the Sony ANC (BT) ones and they were never this uncomfortable.

You can buy from physical Apple Store or website within 60 days of purchase.

I keep trying to input the purchase date. Which is the date i received from Shopee and then open and connect it but it keeps saying in red:
"We’re sorry, but we are unable to complete your request at this time. Please try again later."

I suggest to contact Apple and get their assistance.

I just tested Spatial Audio - mindblowing.

The earphones actually track your movements (head) - if you turn to the left, the sounds will be louder on the right side - as if you are turning away from the speaker.

Although its not perfect yet, with a few updates it will be. Pretty impressive.

Update: It works with Apple Music, TV+ and HBO Max. Netflix not yet supported.

Tried it on Disney+.

I feel like I'm absorbed into it right away.

I paired it with my iPhone but when I tap the airpods it does not change the mode. Why is it so?

Besides, is there any way to use the
AirPods Pro as mic (input device) in windows 10?

I cannot see it as input device when paired.

Tried pairing with my laptop previously but unsuccessful. Maybe it's my company hardening that block the pairing.

i might wait till more discount/sale to decide later...

As long the cheapo memory foam material is similar to Comply, then should be fine.

I tried the sponge foam kind, and it's bad.

I usually just use damp cloth to wipe the foam tips once/twice every month. Try to prolong it as long as I can.

The Spatial Audio alone is enough to justify the price.

I actually have no idea how does the warranty registration works. If you buy it from retail or online Apple store the its prettt straightforward. In this case I’m buying from a retailer. My warranty page says update purchase info, which I haven’t done yet.

Anyway, my point is that the AirPods Pro is genuine. I’m able to connect seamlessly with my MacBook Air and inside my Mac Bluetooth device page, it’s showing all information correctly, on the latest firmware, manufacturer is Apple and all battery status. Huge difference between ANC and transparency mode so they’re definitely working.

Did you manage to try the Spatial Audio? brows.gif
