Hi all, I went orchard store to try out the new AirPods, not sure why it just doesn't fit, it keep dropping out. Is there anything wrong? I end up buying the gen 2 with wireless charging, as I prefer the longer "stick".
Nothing wrong. its just the ergonomic of your ears and the airpods 3 no fit.

ok cause I used AirPods gen 1, 2, AirPods Pro and all have no issue with the fit. Just this gen 3 does not fit my ears at all... quite disappointed that I can't use it

yeah if you are using the airpods pro at least you can change the ear tips to different sizes or even 3rd party ones. Likely you would be able to find a suitable fit.

I just realised the right side of the airpod tend to have issues, my right airpod and airpod pro both died after 1 year plus of usage.... seems like getting apple care for airpod is needed.

It seems like not many interested in this. I am interested as I might not be suitable for TWS with silicon tips. Will caused itch in my ears. Interestingly, it's available for collection in all 3 stores! The thing holding me back is whether does it fit well or not.
guess it's not made to fit all
browse on carousell, quite a few sell due to 'not fit well'

best to test it before buying

I actually share the same experience with my airpods because it has been a reoccurring experience throughout my airpods bought along the years

Just got my Airpods 3 from South Korea via Qoo10 and upon opening out to check, found a hairline scratch on the case, so sad.
