I've had my airpods for about two months now and I really like them a lot. They are small enough in their case that I usually carry them in my pocket, which I

  Same here. I was skeptical initially, but all my go-to early adopters loved them, so I bought a pair. Super glad I did - great for walking around, work conference calls etc. Also, the case keeping the headphones themselves charged is just awesome. I still prefer my wireless noise canceling ones on flights, but I'm a huge fan of AirPods overall.

    They are lovely for calls. The Airpods have made calling people something I even look forward to. People have no idea I'm using hands free. If anything, I sound better since I can prop the iPhone against the window or somewhere I know the signal is good.

  Do they routinely fall of your ears? Seemingly, this was the most common issue or complaint against the adoption of AirPods.

    Generally from people who hadn’t wore them.... I’ve had them fall out of my ears once when I was taking my jumper off with them on. I run with them on. They are a slightly different shape to the earbuds that come with iPhones so worth a try even if those fall out a lot.

    I’ve had AirPods for a little over a month now and they have never fallen out of my ears - they are sturdy enough where it’s not even a concern. And thinking about it, why would AirPods fall out of your ears any more than wired Apple earbuds. The technology is really seamless - my only gripe with the product is battery life. You can’t listen and charge at the same time, and I’ve never gotten all day batter life. It makes it hard to use as a daily driver - I have my AirPods for most situations and then a set of headphones for work on the laptop

      i don't have airpods, but i've heard it mentioned that the weight of the wire holds the wired style earpods down in the cradle of your ear more so than airpods.

        On the contrary, the wires seemed to pull them out more than anything else. AirPods stay in my ears way better, with no discomfort.

          That's my experience from running with regular earbuds. Have to find a way to hold my phone just so to keep the cord from jostling them out. I've also tried a phone arm-strap but couldn't work out a place that worked for the headphones cable. Don't have airpods, but I've heard nothing but great reviews so I'm thinking about it. Wish they didn't cost so much.

      FWIW I find Apple earbuds to be uncomfortable, and they do fall out of my ears pretty quickly. I guess it really depends on your ears.
  • dfabulich 9y ago
    AirPods fall out of my ears significantly less than Apple's wired EarPods ear buds, which is to say almost never. (I guess it's because there's no cable pulling down on them.)
  • artimaeis 9y ago
    I've had my pair for about a year now - only times they've fallen out are when something brushes against them. Usually when I'm trying to take a sweater off or something.
  • nerdwaller 9y ago
    My set is still pretty new (~2wks), but so far I have been able to use public transit, mountain bike (though generally I don't wear them here so I can disconnect and hear others on the trail), and work out with them never falling out. The only cases I have come close is like most others mentioned here, wearing them when changing shirts or my toddler grabbing them.
  • safepants 9y ago
    I've worn them mountain biking without a problem. I've even crashed hard off my bike and they stayed in just fine.

    I don't feel like the AirPods are that secure when I run with them, so I use some medical tape [1] to secure them to my ears. This is kind of weird, but I've done it since March and really like not worrying about them falling out. I cut off a small 5mm strip of tape, make a loop, and stick it right below the black sensors on each AirPod. They stay firmly attached even when my ears are sweaty and I'm shaking my head.

    Nope, although I haven't really used them much outside. Just walking around, or sitting, or at the gym at a treadmill.
  • kevinherron 9y ago
    I regularly run road and trails with mine and they stay in place.
  • Bahamut 9y ago
    My only issue in my half year of use so far has been this - they don't fit nicely in my ears, but I know people where it is a perfect fit. If this could be improved, I'd be a very happy camper.
  • asabjorn 9y ago
    They don't fall out for me even when doing extreme exercise.

    Gone on rides, dancing, runs (all rarely) without any problems. Initial there was fear on my part, but never worried.
