Hey all

I owned the 1st gen AirPods but I found they were not loud enough and I don't even like my music at all too loud.
I think its because the AirPods/Earpods do not fit my ears well at all, and I often have to push them back in after a while of using them due to them sliding out.

Can anyone recommend some bluetooth wireless earphones that I can use which is a similar price or even a little more to the AirPods but with better sound quality and fit. I also do plan to use them at the gym so sweat resistance is also beneficial to me.


Many thanks/

I'm seriously considering picking up a pair of Sons WF-1000XM3. Just for that better sound quality for the times I want something better than the AirPods and I like the idea of ANC.

As the last entry of the 2nd generation of True Wireless Earbuds ... I see these Sony’s as the bench mark for all future 3rd gen earbuds starting late 2019/early 2020.

Aplle’s AirPods will need to be redesigned for 3rd generation for better features, better sound quality, and longer battery life.
