Hello,

First, with a little background.
Basically ive never had any wireless earphones/headphones and recently decided its time to upgrade from my old wired earphones to an airpods.
So im kinda left with 2 logical option since I use iphone and a macbook - airpods or airpods pro.
For my needs seems like the pro's would be the way to go.
  • I like good sound quality (I use some old sennheiser momentum wired headphone every day while working) so im used to a highish level of sound quality.
  • I like in ear style with silicon tips, since that what ive been using for my last 5-6 years while exercising, so I assume the pro's would feel comfy in my ears.
Now on to dillema - are we expecting any airpods pros replacement anytime soon? Seems like March even is not happening. Also I am very tempted to get them now since its easy to find them with discount (amazon offers 25% off).

Let me know your thoughts,
Thanks! :)

I believe that the one getting a refresh is the regular Airpods, not the Pro, so imo it's a safe buy if it's on sale.

I’ve seen rumours of a refresh to AirPods Pro in may , but who really knows.
fairly low risk to get them now, I reckon the update will likely be fairly superficial, maybe better battery life, or even a redesign without a stem.....personally I don’t mind the stem at all, on the pros it’s fairly unobtrusive
I bought mine only last month, knowing me I’ll be tempted by the update whatever it is ....but you may not be like me!!
