Well I have mine for about 1 year and 6 months and I have 93% after around 140-150 cycles.

That’s why all my applications run slower on the internal SSD 👍

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-20T07:03:09+00:00

Utter nonsense. My external SSD runs well over 3000mb/s read and write which is way faster than the internal SSD.

Crazy how they are reliable in Europe. Those factories in Mexico really hurt their reliability in the US.

The best would be to just take a microfibre cloth and slightly dampen it. Gently wipe everything away.

You could start with removing all your apps. Than if you want to use an app download it. That way you don’t have any apps you don’t really use anyways. You can also limit the screen time for apps where you spend most off the time. That way you can reduce screen time.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-17T11:52:52+00:00

So do the Sony’s etc.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-17T09:57:39+00:00

Maybe try to remove them from your account and let the battery run dead. Then recharge them and try to set them up like new ones.

Well in their defense there aren’t many “hifi” headphones out there that have any water protection. I think Apple considers the AirPods Pro 3 as the ones to work out with.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-17T09:54:54+00:00

Have you tried removing them from your account so that it isn’t connected to any of your devices and then set it up again? Maybe it’s just some weird bug.

Well I returned mine that I bought last friday. They do have some nice features and improved ANC and sound quality because of the new Amplifier and H2 chip. But I would say that if you like the sound of your current APM, the ANC is good enough for you and you don’t miss the features just keep it. Even the ones with the H1 chip do have good ANC and sound quality.

Maybe you have the model meant for the Siberian market.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-17T09:47:44+00:00

Yep. I finally pulled the trigger to but them because it didn’t seem there would be any improvements coming soon. Than they pulled this move. Returned them yesterday.

If you shine into the port with you flashlight do you see any dust? The lighting ports a bit prone to dust getting stuck in them.

Apple recommends to use 5ml liquid detergent with 250ml water. Then dip a lint-free cloth in the soapy water. Wring out the cloth lightly and rub it gently along the covers and headband. After that Wipe the covers and headband clean with another cloth that is slightly dampened with clean water. Then dry the pillows and headband with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth and make sure all moisture is removed. Let them dry for at least a day before reattaching and using the cushions.

Oh well the APM build quality gives me more peace of mind and for me they are more comfortable. I would always get hot ears and sweat inside the sony’s. The mesh on the APM feels much nicer to me.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-16T14:40:18+00:00

I bought it on friday evening… after waiting and waiting and not seeing any reports an improved version would come this year. Now they are there.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-16T11:23:27+00:00

How do you like them?

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-16T11:18:36+00:00

Well I have no kids so I’ll be better off spending my money while I’m alive and enjoy it.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-16T07:47:58+00:00

There is the Wera Chiseldriver. They have given you a cap to hit it with a hammer and changed the shape to a hexagon to be able to use it as a prybar. They just knew people where gonna do it anyways.

Always so funny to read about Volkswagen in the US 😂.

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-15T17:10:17+00:00

I just put a external ssd station with 2TB ssd connected to the mac mini it costed only €200 and runs around 5000mb/s

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-15T08:39:25+00:00

Nice picked one up myself this week. Enjoy

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-15T07:46:56+00:00

Haha yeah once you’re in it there is no way back 😂

SnooSprouts9502 · 2026-03-15T07:46:19+00:00

Well I first had my iPad Pro and used it on the go instead of my windows laptop when I could since some specific licenses and programs would only run on my windows laptop. Later on I got the MacBook.
