*** The Official AirPods {all gens} (and AirPods Pro [and AirPods Pro 2nd generation]) thread ***

Any recommendations on the Gen 2 cases? Been looking at leather … not sure the additional cost is worth it?

from the rainforest. Bit pricy but I like it, has a premium feel.

Do you mean Amazon? OcUK don’t sell AirPods or AirPod cases so not only can you say Amazon but you can even link to the specific item if you like.

Yes, thought this was against the rules. Here is the link https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0BSKTGSVG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks for everyones help - ordered at Very and saved £30 with an account specific code. Surprised it worked on Apple products!

Quoting myself here - but looks like Apple have dropped the price from £250 to £220 for Airpods Pro 2, at least at Argos, John Lewis and Amazon as far as I can see. Presuming its to entice people away from the Sonys which will be released at 2pm today. My plan now is to order both from Amazon and compare them.

Apple don’t set the price in 3rd party retail stores, pretty sure that would be illegal.

Someone somewhere has ‘discounted’ them for whatever reason and the rest have price matched. Competition.

Do you think the mods wouldn't know you were referencing Amazon when using the word rainforest?

The new beta features with AirPod Pro 2 and iOS 17 look really good. Probably the thing I am looking forward to most.

Had a demo of the Airpod Pro 2 at Apple - I’m sold.

Best deal to be had on these outside of £249 RRP? Appears to be various offers but some appear scammy.

Just got mine from the forest, £219, softened the blow about by doing it over 4 months 0%

What features, mine landed today and I'm already running the public betas on my iPad Pro, Watch 7 and iPhone.

Nice, I've not got a Mac tho so will have to wait until the newer features land on a public update rather than a developer one..

[Bilbo]

Thank you for the heads up about this it looks like a good update when it happens.

I do mean Amazon, and I'm sure we've had this conversation before
I say the forest because it's habit and I'm not gonna get caught out at any point calling them Amazon if the item I am talking about ever ends up at OCUK stock, if I always call it the forest...

Just ordered a pair to replace my 1st-gen AirPods.

 

[Cromulent]

I've never figured out how to get AirPod Pros to update their firmware. I'll be sticking to the lightning cases for another year (unless they break).

 

[Fire Wizard]

I wonder why they haven't updated the 3rd Generation AirPods charging case with USB-C. That is very disappointing.

 

[Reuben klang]

Is it just me or has the price dropped? I’m sure the max was £549, they’re now £499.

 

[Broken Hope]

Yeah price of everything has dropped, pro 2's are now £229, used to be £249.
