I'm kind of in the same boat, the only time I use my AirPods now is working out. There has got to be a better way, these are environmental nightmares, a completely disposable product, with next to no repairability.

The AP1/2 shape remains my personal favorite for around the house podcast listening when multitasking, as it naturally allows in some ambient noise and avoids any “thump” issues when walking around (a problem for me with all in ear designs)

AP3 got slightly bigger and was less comfortable for my ear shape

The 1st Gen have been my favourite for wearing in bed, whereas both generations of Pro dig into my ears and cause residual pain for hours. Need to replace now but the 3rd Gen are larger so will likely go for the 2nd Gen.

These are very old now, 70 bucks would be a nice sweet spot for these to land at on sale.

I wish they'd find a way to do an updated AP1/2 design and make the stems into batteries that could be swapped.

I only stopped using my AP1's because the battery got so bad and would only last 30 mins
