Sleeping sideways with Airpods Max

So I’m used to sleeping with over-ear headphones for a while. The thing is I’m very scared to do so with my AirPods Max, because I feel like they could snap in half.

Is it ok to sleep with them ? Does the headband distributes the weight well while laying on them ?

How to adjust AirPods for better comfort and prevent it from falling out? I just bought airpods gen 2. I love them. They are simple and pair to my iphone super easy. But they fall out of my ears! This bothers me enough I may return them and seek something else. Any solutions? Surely I am not the only one [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Noise cancelling questions I've got a noisy neighbour who plays loud music at night, preventing me from sleeping I've tried simple ear plugs but I hate wearing them. I find them very uncomfortable, don't really work and the sound of my inner gurgling and blood pumping around my ears becomes very noticeable and loud! Would AirPods block this noise, so I can't hear it? Would I have to play music for the noise cancelling to work? (I don't want to have to do this) In terms of comfort would it be possible to sleep with AirPods in my ears? Or would they keep falling out? I can see that AirPods have 5 or 6 hours of listening charge. But if I'm not listening to anything, just using the noise cancelling, how long would a charge last? Would it be more practical to get the AirPods Max (could you sleep with them on)? Is it only the AirPods Pro and Max that have noise cancelling? Thank you!

How do I prevent AirPods from falling out of my ears My AirPod pro feels like it wants to fall out of my ears. I’ve tried all the ear bud and it just doesn’t feel as comfortable as it’s proclaimed. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

If I had spent $550 on a set of headphones, I would definitely not be using them in a way that wasn't intended.

There are headphones that are designed specifically for sleeping. And they're a whole lot cheaper.

Which headphones are designed specifically for sleeping? What brands/models?
