Same, thought there will be some revolutionary changes but seems insignificant to justify the change.

Exactly. I was looking forward to changing mine after reading rumors about supporting lossless. Just read again and realized it doesn't support it. OK, it saves my money for upgrading. I like my AirPods Pro so much that I am hoping for some upgrades after three years, so that it makes sense for me to upgrade. Not something like this man. tongue.gif

Hello sis happy.gif

The thing is my APP started having static noise and Apple AU service fee is darn expensive :x

Hello. biggrin.gif

I see. Mine is still OK, except one side spoilt early this year and got it replaced already. I will use it for another three years until the next AirPods Pro refresh. laugh.gif Just joking; I'm not sure if it can last till then. sweat.gif

But then if I'm able to sell off for a decent price, why not? innocent.gif

Just got the AirPods Pro 2.
The noise cancellation is really impressive when compared to the original. 
Sound quality is better though imo not the level of the AKG N400 yet.
*
Good to hear that. I just picked up mine and will be testing it tonight.

Gonna try with ComplyFoam if it fits this new gen.

Your best option is to get from SG like bro goskype suggested.

I got mine from AU.

Are the AirPods that low build quality that after only 2 years the product is breaking down?

It depends on how you handle it. Mine was in 95% good condition before I sold it.

While waiting for a brand to release a leather case, I went and purchase a silicone case as temporary protection

Is there a need to put another "case" to the "case"?

If I pay Rm15 to give me a peace of mind that my case is protected even if I drop it, I rather paying that than having to see crack/damage for the next 2-3 years.

A good read on Adaptive Transparency and can test it out

Link

Note: Did a test while I'm on my way back. Very nice feature to have so I know how much ambient sound can pass through.

I recently purchased the Azla tips, XELASTEC.
super nice I like it. Initially it takes a while to put it in place in your ears but once the tips start moulding to your shape then it’s all good. Best of all when I run and sprint, the eartips dont drop off at all. 😃

I saw this but didn't bother to read the review until now. Looks good and worth giving it a try considering the maintenance is rather easy.

Apart from the speaker hole and the lanyard hole, APP1 case should fit APP2 right?

Yes, it should fit.

Has any airpod pro 2 casing avail in Shopee / lazada ?

I’m looking for cheap silicone casing first, but can’t seem to find local seller.
Maybe later once more casing release , going for transparent case ( did engraving )
*
I'm using this case as temporary case (link)

It's a little bit thicker as compared to APP1 silicone casing but it does the job.

I mostly use it with Apple Music now with Dolby Atmos, Spatial Audio and HeadTracking features - and the experience is nothing short of phenomenal.

I unsubscribed Spotify and went to AM because of the audio quality is far better. Although there are some songs that I couldn't transfer to AM from Spotify, but just minor issue.

I got mine (not USB Type-C) since it was first launched last year and I used it daily with adaptive mode. As of last week, it lasted 4.5 hours before it triggered the low battery warning.
