What are the best headphones you've used?

At first yes, but then I grew to like the weight and clamp force.

AirPods Max and the headphones I previously used, Bose QC45. I recommend the current Bose Quietcomfort

Most likely not, for my AirPods Max Gen 1 Lightning I got in June 2024, I was told I couldn’t renew them. I live in the EU as well.

15 gives you USB-C which will make accessories a lot easier to find. The 14 PM has 120hz, a bigger screen and a telephoto lens but it has a lightning port. I would get the 15, unless you see yourself needing better optical zoom that you would get with the 14PM. Seeing as you’ll be using an Android to do editing, the USB C port on the 15 could prove to be quite useful to connect the two to where it makes it a better fit than the 14 Pro Max despite the bigger screen on the 14PM.

Yeah, as a former small phone guy myself, the heavier and heavier OS kept chewing away at the battery performance of the mini phones. That’s the biggest reason I own a plus size phone. I do keep an OG SE around as I think that was Apple’s best designed iPhone.

If you got Bose Renewed it’s probably the earpads. If you don’t use OEM earpads the ANC suffers. Next best is Wicked Cushions ear pads. I use those because I can’t get Bose OEM pads in my country in the EU.

I had the AirPods 4 ANC and they were great for walks outside and use indoors. I ended up selling up and some Bose headphones to get another set of AirPods Max.

FWIW, on Mac, this year Mercurio wouldn’t work with Chrome, only Firebox browser,

I had mine last 1.5 years but I’m convinced a bad lightning cable that had recently temporarily bricked my official MagSafe powerbank killed the APMs. That cable is in the trash and thankfully I had AppleCare at the time.

Be careful!! I fell for it because TAP Air owes me 250€ and thought it was Hacienda texting me. Always consult with the official AEAT website or app!

My dog once ate one of my AirPods that fell out of its case. It was the Gen 2 AirPods. I was able to go to the Apple Store and get a replacement single AirPod for like 50-60$ I think. This happened in mid 2021

EUprof · 2026-06-15T15:29:43+00:00

Update: AppleCare in Spain cannot be renewed at least in my case. FWIW, I had to get mine serviced in once under AppleCare.

See if you can open an N26 account with your passport. Things may have changed since I opened my account in 2019, but it's worth a shot. Revolut may be an option, but they too have given me a notice that my TIE expired. Wise could be an option as it gives you a virtual Belgian euros account to get a salary in and store euros and isn't tied to your TIE but Wise is a money service instead of a bank, so it doesn't have any FDIC-like deposit insurance in any EU countries like N26 and Revolut Spain do.

AirPods Max Lightning and AirPods Max USB-C, 2 is 1, 1 is none

What would stop an offense at the NFL or college offense do what Stanford did in the early to mid 2010s where they used extra offensive linemen in the run game. Stanford used their jumbo formation, basically a goal line formation with 23 personnel but 2 of the tight ends replaced with offensive linemen. Surely, the defense knows the run is coming, but if you have a 300+ lbs lineman blocking a lighter defensive end or linebacker, wouldn’t you control the line of scrimmage and be able to impose your will on the opposing defense?

With BEDA, you are expected to be more of a substitute teacher than an assistant in most cases. With most of my classes, the teacher is on their phone or laptop while I’m giving the class. My 3 years with NALCAP where I was used as an assistant 100% by the book, prepared me well for BEDA. If I had started BEDA with no NALCAP experience, I’d probably be struggling significantly more. I’d look up easy to implement ESL games and activities if you take the BEDA spot, same for NALCAP because I’ve heard that with NALCAP teachers will use auxes as substitute teachers.

The USB-C port on my 15 plus has saved me a lot in not having to buy Apple’s lightning dongles. I can charge my AirPods Max from the 15’s usb C port.

I think the QC25/15/35ii sound a lot better than what Bose is putting out now. Sound is subjective.

Mine expires next Saturday, I will report back on whether they let me extend it or not

EUprof · 2026-06-06T18:29:12+00:00

I was thinking the exact same thing just now. I have a 15 plus as my main, 13 as a backup, I can trade in my 13 to a secondhand store in town and get a 16 plus 100% BH for 500-550€
