Hi guys, just wanna make some quick clarification. I just bought AirPod Pro recently, but I found out that the hinge feels a bit loose and makes some creaking noise. Just wonder if it is normal or not?

mine also abit loose, but doesn’t make noise.

i can hear abit from ppl talking nearby. but when anc turn on i cant hear my office aircon sound turn off can hear still got different there

same as mine, current firmware cancel low frequency noise such as the aircond vent noise only.

u probably did not experience the previous firmware. On previous firmware, i need to turn on transparency mode before i can hear from others.
with current firmware, i can talk with others by pausing the music (without turning on transparency mode).

i suggest not to buy them unless apple fix it with the next firmware update.

most of the online review is based on old firmware, and the anc is very good.

hrmm now i try again, i can hear ppl typing on keyboard, open roti plastic sound or move chair sound or walking sound. really not so much different on/off anc. lol. the only filtered sound is the aircon sound so i thot it works fine.
not sure is it before this firmware also like that. hope apple can fixed it asap
*
the anc is very good before the firmware update, that's why all online review praise for its anc and transparency mode.

I don't recommend to buy airpods pro now, unless Apple brings back the decent anc through another firmware update.

Wow after update firmware anc broken? So weird..

Apple has made a mistake by not including the noise cancellation level control.

most of the buyers are either airpods user or first time anc in-ear user. they complain feeling headache / dizzy after turning on anc.

so Apple released a firmware update silently to reduce the noise cancellation level. in my experience, reduced from level 10 to around level 4-5.

hopefully next ios update will include noise cancellation level control.

wow that is really bad. no point already if like that. airpods pro ANC is excellent as per what ppl saying online that ppl can make up that with less decent sound quality of WF-1000XM3, if ANC drop quality, then no use oledi, SQ also cannot fight and now ANC is bad. I planning to buy 1 but heard like if those noise can be heard, really no point.
*
Ya, the bad thing is u can’t adjust the noise cancellation level, everything is default setting by Apple.

I suggest u wait until Apple enable noise cancellation level control in future update.

Those who have it already, any feedback? How’s the ANC? Some reviewers are saying that with latest firmware ANC is bad..

Ya, latest firmware (2B588) ANC is bad imo.
if you are looking for decent ANC, don’t get it now.

get it after Apple fix it. (who knows when)

Mine is pre-shipped with 2B588, the ANC is weak as hell. Compared to my WH100XM3s.

A simple comparison when I snap my fingers from afar, I can't hear them with the Sonys, with the Pros, I can.  hmm.gif

My airpods pro ANC becomes very weak since this Monday because of the firmware updated to 2B588. doh.gif

Now i am stuck with this airpods pro, cannot return (14 days return period over). mad.gif

Now pray hard for an update from Apple to allow users to customize their ANC strength like Sony does. It is after all a RM1k earphone  puke.gif

btw, do u try another ear tip size and the fitting test?
