Touch volume control removes my biggest pain point with the original. I might actually get two: one for my Apple devices and another for Windows/Android
I’ve never seen anyone use them for non Apple devices , how well do they work?

Re: AirPods Pro (2nd Generation)
#32I love my AirPod Pros, but I hate how unreliable charging in the case is. The AirPods will often think they are out of the case, when they are, and discharge themselves, while connected to my phone/laptop. Then they will re-charge, emptying the battery in the case, so I will end up with a dead pair of AirPods after a couple of days in the pocket, not using them. I guess their tolerances are too tight, hopefully somet…

#35It's wild how much money Apple has made from Bluetooth headphones that don't suck. That's literally it. They're portable, pair easily and (somewhat) work with multiple devices. I have top of the line Bose Bluetooth headphones that still, in 2022, have issues with multiple devices. I can't count how many times I've started playing music on my iPhone only to realize that the headphones think my laptop is playing, so th…

#36How do “computational algorithms” differ from other kinds of algorithms employed in headphones?
One term was written by someone paid $120,000 to write software, the other by someone paid $120,000 to write marketing copy. ;)

Don’t get me wrong, it’s still an absolutely fantastic product. I hope they’ve made the new line even better.

Just try them, there's a 14 day no-questions-asked return policy.
