      They’re the only semi-decent (sound quality) company I’m aware of that make earbuds without the little buttplug tips. I seemingly need to stretch out my tight earholes, but I’d prefer if ANY company could make earbuds that aren’t just skullcandy+ please.

      Taking suggestions if anyone knows of one.

              Sure, but it’d be nice to not have to spend what I’m sure isn’t a paltry sum when they could just as easily “not” be a cookie cutter copy of literally everything else on the market, in the hope, not promise, that it’ll be an improvement.

                I wouldn’t be surprised if apple has a patent on the shape. Probably not enforceable but who’s got the money to deal with a lawsuit with apple for 10+ years over headphones?

        Possibly Huawei if you’re not in the US. Sony open backs? Or maybe just some xiaomi model, but I can’t vouch for sound there.

        I’m in the same boat and use the regular airpods 2. The 3rd gen would be ideal too unless Huawei entices me to switch over.
