Strange that when making 110 million units per year they don’t bother to cover tens of millions ears more with slightly different design.
Same with incredibly small mouse and bunch of other sku’s that could def be differentiated.
- shantara 5y agoApple does ship Pros with three different sizes of silicone tips in the box. Changing the standard (medium) to a large one made all the difference for me to finally be able to wear AirPods while running and working out. While discussing this feature with others, I was surprised to discover that many people who complain about the bad fit have no idea about it, or never bothered choosing the size that fits their ear canal the best. And that's not even getting into the third party tip replacements of various shapes and sizes.
- GhettoComputers 5y agoWhy make more SKUs to support? They don’t want the business or the headaches. They squishy things mold to people’s ears anyway. Imagine asking others to put on several types of headphones or needing a scanner and it getting it wrong. It’s a stupid business decision for mass produced Bluetooth headphones.

- GhettoComputers 5y agoThey make different AirPods too. If it makes them more money, it could be worth it, but that’s an assumption, if they gave the classic features as good as the pros would that make them more money? It could, but they might not want to cannibalize them.
