Have had my original Airpods about 3.5 years old at this point, and have been used constantly (and even went through the washer about a week after I got them). I have always said that if they ever died I would buy another the same day, definitely a must-have product for me. They have started to drain super fast (less than 2 hours), and sometimes just randomly disconnect, or don't charge. Not to mention the microphone in the right headphone doesn't work.
Was hoping for Airpods 3 to be released today, but since they weren't I think I might grab the Pros. I was worried they wouldn't last long enough for me, but based on what you guys are seeing, I don't think that is a problem. I normally only use one at a time so noise cancellation isn't too important to me, but the tighter seal, and ANC would be good when I do want both in (like when mowing the lawn, etc.). Also the current price on Amazon makes them less than $200, so not a bad deal.
