I haven't found a truly similar alternative yet, hoping that their 'next shipment arriving mid-august' is accurate.

The part where it says these must be removed before charging turns me away from them.

Anyone have experience with these and can give us their opinion?

Not sure if anyone is watching this - just got tracking number from earskinz for the pair I preordered.


@bambooshots - given the way the pods fit in the I doubt very seriously that anyone could make any that don't need to be removed. I imagine if you want to use something like the es3's you'll need to plan on repurchasing every 6-9 months. My plan if I like them is to buy a few pairs just to have around just in case. I don't see this accessory as being a one and it'll last the lifetime of the pods, they are $11 after all. I'll post more after receiving them if you'd like.

Did you received them ?

I did. I was pleasantly surprised at how well they fit. I think it is an annoyance that they don't fit in the charger but that is hardly earskinz fault.

Any more of you guys used these. I have not ordered EarPods because of the poor fit of apple earphones

Really? I got scared when I ordered mine with all the posts saying they don’t fit

EarPods always fit me good, my AirPods fit even better in my ear
