Love my AirPods Pro man. No wires, great sound and noise cancellation. I have never had them fall out of my ears, even when working out.
If your earbuds are falling out, clean your ears and your earbuds before you put them in. Either that, or you need tips that fit your ear better. If you have those ear canals that don’t want anything in them, we also now have great (and wireless!) headphones now too.
Wires are really just for those audiophile enthusiasts, people who can’t be bothered charging wireless things, or people who would lose their head if it wasn’t attached.
However, a lot of companies dropped headphone jacks, because they could both save a buck on them, make them even more slightly thinner to the point it starts to impact usability, and create a market for 3rd party accessories (wireless head/earphones, converters, etc.).
That’s fair. I’m not exactly testing their endurance, just use them for YouTube and podcasts, so it’s likely they’ve degraded quite a bit without me noticing.
Start another task manager instance; task manager is designed to always be able to force some resources from the system and it will kill other instances of itself that aren’t working.
If everyone you measure the number of calls you get is higher than the previous measurement then it is easily possible. Y’know day 1 you get one phone call, day 2 two, etc. Than you will consistently have higher volume than average… Technically
There have been a lot of ANC responses focusing on the A (active) part. There are two parts to nose cancellation: active and passive. I agree ANC are sweet and all… The other comments have that covered.
If you’re interested in exploring a potentially low cost alternative to expensive ANR headphones or earbuds… Know that there are two parts to noise cancelling: active and passive. Passive nose cancelling is how much the headphones or earbuds reduce the outside noise before the active part needs to step in.
SO, an option I haven’t seen discussed yet would be to get some standard low cost earbuds and get some over-ear ear muffs to put around them.
Edit: literacy is for everyone… I didn’t see the bit about using this for sleep. Over ear muffs plus earbuds wouldn’t be very comfortable. Another option might be just finding some noise sounds you prefer over the nose you like. There are different standard noises… White noise, pink noise, brown noise… These might help make the frequency of unwanted sound your looking to block.

thanks, if they only made hatch sleep earbuds (which also work as regular earbuds normally) i'd order them today. bose makes a pair of sleep earbuds, but they're like 300 bucks, and they don't cancel sound so much as play prerecorded sleeping sounds (seemingly like these hatch speakers do, which i can't image work anywhere near as well as in in ear canal solution), and the bose "sleeps" or whatever can't be used as normal earbuds to watch tv or listen to music or make phone calls, so, yeah, but appreciate the thoughtful response
Along these lines though when I did a lot of wood cutting I would buy the foam ear plugs, cut them shorter then use a hole punch to create a centre through hole that fit my earbuds. Replacing the stock rubber/silicon pads.
I would then compress the ear plugs with my fingers like you normally would and slip the earbuds in.
I would guess the earplugs efficacy was slightly reduced but it let me listen to music and podcasts while slinging a chainsaw for hours at a time without having to have ear damaging sound levels. I always used a helmet and earmuffs over the top for extra isolation.
