Buy now AirPods Pro or better wait for second gen?

[Kraizelburg]

Hi, I’m debating whether I should get the AirPods Pro for my gym sessions or better wait for a second gen AirPods Pro.

I have a good offer in a local store for 180€ so that’s why I’m asking and because after reading some post in this forum I’m concerned about rattle gate and long time reliability.

cheers

Wait

Wait until March 23rd.

Bueno thought next AirPod release would be airpods 3 and not AirPods Pro 2. Doy you think new airpods 3 will have ipx rating as for me this is a key feature.

might as well wait for the next alleged event at this point unless you absolutely must have them now.

I just got Pros today since the price dropped where I live. I've been happy with my AirPods 2.

Better wait , there are only 10 days left

I don’t think the AirPods Pro 2 are due, just the cheaper ones.

But I’d wait and see anyway. If they’re not announced then go for it. They’ll probably be out end of this year I’d imagine.

OP - what did you do? Now that the supposed event didn't happen.

Wait until March 23rd.

I've waited until 23rd of March. What should I do now? My left airpod microphone went wonky and stopped working entirely a few months ago. I switched off the auto mic detection, so that people could still hear me through the right one. Now the right microphone sounds muffled since yesterday according to people on my calls.

Sounds like it's time for a replacement. If you need them, buy them. I too was trying to hold out for the next generation version but could not wait. Found a good price and bit the bullet.

My AirPods v1 were a pain in the @$$ for months... The right one kept losing it's connection, battery drained fast while in use... I also waited till the 23th. And then the 25th I ordered the AirPods Pro.

So happy with them!
