I have Philips TAT2206 which is the same with eartips. No issues so far works fine. No bass boost just clear vocals and good medium amount of bass. Check it out. It isn't a high end pair but if you don't run after fleshy and advanced features it is great.

And most are from no name brands where all the brand name versions are with silicone tips. Regular AirPods are rare ones from a brand name.

          SShock, 12 Jan 2023And none of them offer earbuds without dumb silicone tips...Actually eartips are very useful. They give great bass and effective noise isolation. And ability to use different sizes. But if you don't want eartips anyway many brands have that too. Do a research and you will find. I saw a JBL and a Philips. But for others don't know. But it doesn't mean they don't have.

                Forget about Airpods and Beats if you need them for high quality music. Go for Jabra Sennheiser Sony Bose. Or if low budget go for JBL Philips Edifier Soundcore. No matter what you buy boost bass to reduce sharp sounds and annoying treble.

                  I actually really like AirPods 2. If they can just keep their design and functions and make them cheaper would be really cool. I hate the silicone tip buds and there is less and less options without silicone tips...

                    If they ever release a black version, I might consider it..

                                Ok Kuo says iPhone SE 2022 starts at $300 and the fact is $429...

                                  >In order to bring the price down, Apple will likely shave some features like the Apple H1 chip

                                  Purely artificial price differentiation. You know their margins are super high on each of these TWS products
