As an airpods pro 2 owner i wouldn’t say that they are “the best” but honestly they are pretty damn good. Specially if you are using ios

Beats were more comfortable for me and cheaper and as mentioned, since owned by apple, work well with pairing etc

I dropped off and paid for a out of warranty screen replacement on my 11 pro (also in Australia) a couple of years ago, maybe just over a year after it came out.
They said it would be about an hour to complete, and I was welcome to come back or book a return appointment, it was early on a Sunday, so I decided to hang around the shopping centre.
Go back after an hour, and they said they needed another 30 minutes as the new screen didn’t work.
Came back in 30… same thing. There was an issue trying to get it to start. Asked if I could return in another 30.
Final time, they gave me a refurb to replace it as they were unable to successfully complete the screen replacement.
Moral of the story - if they broke it, they would tell you. I reckon there was an issue with the power button and it was just hanging on before you dropped it off.

It’s not super likely but I have had two phones that around 85% health started to have battery swelling that put pressure on the connections for the display and digitizer and cussed ghosting at random times. A battery replacement fixed it.

They’re great IMO. They’re more comfy than the regular AirPods which start to hurt my ears around the 2 hour mark.

That is unheard of. A retail miracle lol. If you’re on that kind of a roll, could you please demand world peace? On the a chance it might happen?

It might sound silly but have you set the time and date on the phone. Sometimes they have trouble connecting to the net without correct time and date

I had the Apple Store in Brisbane say we had an unapproved battery in an iPhone 6s when we took it to them for a replacement. The Genius Bar guy was quite rude about it.
We had not ever replaced the battery ourselves and owned it since new.
I asked the see the manager, who I had previously passed my thanks to over an apple camp event our kids attended, he remembered me. He twigged that there were a couple of runs with iPhone 6s where some is identifier was missing from the battery’s and it was on the work order process to follow.
He apologised for the Genius Bar member and said he was issuing a new iPhone to us and would reinforce the process with the staff.
So we walked in thinking we were paying nearly $100 and walked out with a new iPhone for our child.

What is the battery health (found under settings, battery, battery health) and also does it feel hot when you notice the ghost touches?

No, battery tech is improving, slowly. The current suppliers for iPhone batteries are Better in quality control and tech involved than they were at the time of the 11 series, or any time before.

CS is how you build a winning company. Especially when selling premium products. Nobody's gonna be happy dropping $1k on a phone when something goes wrong and they get told to get fucked. But if you make a serious effort to take care of your customers, they'll keep being your customers.

Sound wise I personally use Bose QCll buds with my 14PM. Tried AirPods Pro and they weren’t for me. Buds are such a personal choice as far as fit, sound and functionality. The ones I personally tried before I settled on Bose QCll. Sony WF1000XM4 AirPods Pro (first gen) Jarbra 85T Bose QC (first gen) Sennheiser MTW3’s
I recommend trying as many as possible if you can or buy from somewhere with a good returns policy.

How is the comfort on the new AirPods Pro?
cedarpangolin t1_ja0xide wrote
For an iOS user the AirPods are pretty much the best for the claims and price. The beats are good too (basically rebranded AirPods since Apple owns Beats) but there’s not much else that stands out for iOS users.

no, because of high RAM usage from the "window server" process. Not relayed to MS Windows.

I received a brand new MBA M2 because they couldn't help with high RAM usage due to "windowserver" process. They tried for about 6 month.
