yes, agreed, if i want to buy, i think i also prefer airpods 4 with ANC instead. more comfortable.

I hated the OG AirPods, they just lie on the outer ear and easily falls out. Never tried the newer ones, but the AP4 fits really snug, almost like custom in ears without the in ear part which makes it much more comfortable. Even jumping and head swinging doesn't dislodge them from my ears
Plus adding NC? wow that was a big change, isolation almost as good as custom ears now.
SQ is also really good for wireless and for that price (when discounted at RM600+), so unlike all Apple products, the AP4 NC is the most well priced & valued product to me (next to Mac mini)
