So I need to issue an apology.
Okay.
I'd like to apologize to AirPods Pro Adaptive Noise Cancellation Mode.
A few months ago, we were talking about the AirPods Pro noise-canceling modes, and I had said I had tried the adaptive mode for a little while, and I didn't like it, and I switched back, and I disabled it from my cycling when you hold down the stem because it blocked out too much street noise when I was walking around Manhattan, and I didn't like it.
I don't entirely agree with you, but I never got to the point that I wanted it removed from my cycle of options. But I find I very rarely choose Adaptive. Typically, I'm either doing transparency or full-on cancellation.
And I'm pretty sure the way we talked about it was because I got the AirPods 4 and I was asking you guys about the different modes that they do because I didn't know which modes and what they were good for. I think at least at that point, you reiterated your opinion that you didn't like Adaptive.
Yeah. And we got a couple of notes from listeners basically saying, try it again. It's really good. And I tried it again for like, you know, a couple of days and I hated it and I went back. Well, in the meantime... I tried it again, like another time, and I just left it on. And I realized over the last week or so that I have just left it on for like months now. And it's fine.
I don't really think about it anymore. I don't really change modes anymore, almost ever. And so I actually have come around that the new version or the current version of adaptive noise cancellation mode is indeed good enough to use as my main mode almost all the time. I've almost never switched it. Since the most recent try, I almost never switch it to any other mode now.
It just adjusts, and it's fine. So, yeah. Sorry, adaptive mode. I was wrong about you, and you've won me over.
