AirPods Pro - How To Determine Good Fit (Besides the Ear Tip Test App)?

[A4orce84]

Hey Guys,

As the subject states, I'm trying to understand what constitutes a good fit with the AirPods Pro? I have tried both the medium and large silicon ear-tips that come with the AirPods Pro and got a successful fitment test from the Ear Tip Test app. Both the Medium and Large fit, but I'm not sure what's the 'better' fit if that makes sense.

I'm new to AirPods Pro, and mainly any type of earbud that gets inserted into the ear. Should I be standing next to a TV or inside a coffee shop and test out the ANC and see which blocks more noise?

Just trying to understand what is a good fit and how to make sure. Hopefully that makes sense.

Thanks in advance to everyone for your time and help, it is greatly appreciated!

Simply use the ones, you like the most regarding the sound you get, while they feel comfortable. Best try them in a noisy road and listen to some "quiet" music, you like. Switch the ANC on and off and listen to the difference. If the large ones fit, then I would use the large ones and just enjoy the music.

There is that test routine in iOS as well. Nice, but there are 3 sizes of buds and a gazillion of sizes of ears...
