How good are the AirPods Pro’s tips at catching wax?

[vitamanic]

So I have the standard AirPods 2 and want to upgrade because they cause pain after 20 minutes.

One thing that drives me nuts is always having to clean them with a toothbrush every day to avoid clogging and needing to get new ones.

So here’s my question… Do the filters on the Pro’s tips catch everything or does stuff still get through to the pod itself? I can’t imagine having to clean the tip filters and then doing it all over again after removing them all the time.

Thanks!

Perhaps clean your ears frequently?

I don’t use q-tips in my canals, it’s not safe and harms your ears.

They are good, doesn’t seem to pass thru the tip filter. I buy spares to change out every few months. And for your ears you can try an ear cleaning spray that’s what I use in lieu of q tips

Loctite mounting putty is the hot ticket for keeping any version of AirPods clean And removing ear wax. It can be found at most hardware stores. https://www.loctiteproducts.com/en/products/fix/general-purpose/loctite_fun-tak_mountingputty.html
