HEAD PRESSURE WITH AIRPOD PROS

I have been experiencing head pressure with my new AirPods Pro. I was initially freaking out.


Solution


Turn off the noise cancelling feature or turn on the transparency. This will allow you to get adjusted to the headphones and you can eventually turn on the noice cancellation.


The issue that I found was that the noise cancellation feature when it is turned on and you put the AirPods in your airs it creates a suction effect that some people could be sensitive. I happen to have preauricular sinus and as a result I am sensitive to any head pressure.


I really did not want to return the AirPods Pro because it fits perfectly in my very small ears and my original AirPods aways fell out of my ears. I am happy that I found a solution and I can enjoy my AirPods.

That may be what my issue is... the transparency mode helped make phone calls much better. But I still hear a dull thud when walking quickly.
