    My issue is that the article doesn’t address that Apple changed the physical design of the AirPods with Gen 3 so it sits in the ear or more accurately falls out of the ear differently. It is a completely different ear design when compared to the Gen 1&2 AirPods or wired EarPods. 2021 Apple AirPods Announcement

    The new design of AirPods is lightweight and contoured, sitting at just the right angle for comfort and to direct audio into the ear.

      I liked the change. The 1’s were always falling out of my ears, the 3’s felt secure. But the pros are better than either for me.

        Pros with the Comply foam tips are my current favorites. The 3s were pretty good once I put some grip stickers on them.
