Yeah, time for my Airpod upgrades

 

[Jirachi]

Time to head to NTUC Fairprice Xtra and spend SG60 Vouchers

 

[elvintay07]

They got carry meh? Same price of course buy from Apple la. I bought from Fairprice once. Delivery didn’t come, citing busy, don’t come at least have the courtesy to inform la. Machiam they are customers and we are their workers. This kind of service even got SG200 voucher, I also run away from them far far

Now I think about it, might not even get it. Chip no upgrade. Only heart rate monitoring new. Rest feature all will get software update for pro 2

[elvintay07]

More worth it to upgrade for those that are from Airpods Pro 1.

Best sound and best anc!

I am skeptical of them claiming the best ANC, as coming from 1st gen APP. Last time i wore it beside a busy road and i literally cannot hear a thing even conversations. Now the ANC like got nerfed alot. I hope the new APP ANC is able to cancel out conversations as i do not want to hear people conversations when i am in the bus or train.

Your buds seal not good is it? Don't face this issue much with a good seal.

I am interested in the heart rate sensors in the APP3. Hope they can be an alternative to Apple Watch in terms of fitness tracking so that if I go out for a walk, I can leave my AWS10 at home and let APP3 track the calories burned.

Yup. Same. The very first AirPods Pro ANC is really good, then gotten worse with software updates.

The seal is good. Even after replacing the tips and even changing it to foam type, conversations still slip through.

Yup, when it first sold, people complained it was so good until they could not hear anything which caused safety issue to the awareness of our surroundings and they nerfed it which to me literally was not worth for the price i paid for it.

Hi, intend to upgrade from my airpod pro 2 to pro 3. And I have subscribed to apple music since 3 years ago.
Understood that getting the pro 3 will get to enjoy 3 months free apple music, wondering will I be able to enjoy such perks even I'm an existing apple music subscriber.

As Apple investor cum huge fan, Elvin sibei disappointed by this nonsense. Already planning to buy:

(1) IPad Mini 8 - no release
(2) Apple TV - no release
(3) New air tag - no release
(4) New HomePod mini - no release
(5) Apple Watch series 11 - cui no improvement
(6) AirPods Pro 3 - little improvement

But no choice have to whack AirPods Pro 3. I will engrave to make it shiok shiok for total write off.
