My original AirPods were 1st generation and lasted me over 10 years (however long they've been in existence). Only recently did the left one stop holding a charge and the right begin to hold only a limited charge. Quality was definitely there. I won't lie, I have tried other brands through the years and the sound quality just wasn't there. I would buy them because they were more comfortable but people would complain about the sound or I would have other issues. Apple AirPod always won out. However, my work requires me to be on the phone nearly all day and I must admit those generation one AirPods were pretty uncomfortable after a few hours and occasionally caused me outer and middle ear infections or soreness. Now, with the purchase of my new iPhone 17 Pro Max, I bought the AirPods Pro 3 and I can't say enough about them. All the same exceptional quality in a far more comfortable package. Fantastic sound, and I can wear them all day without pain. A++

These airbuds are great. The only issue is the new case no longer has a button making it hard to reset and the language function didn’t work for me right away. Also, the top of the case now clicks a little maybe from dropping it. The older ones had very durable cases and I never encountered this issue. Aside from all that, the new airbud design is much better more comfortable and they are much louder and have better noise cancelling. Overall I love this product and will continue to use these.
