		salt-licker on March 4, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: AirPods causing tinnitus? AirPods Pro noise cancellation almost definitely gave me temporary tinnitus after a few months of usage even though I never listened to music that loud. Switched to regular AirPods two years ago and the tinnitus entirely went away.

No way holy shit. Welp. God dammit I was trying so hard to figure out what caused this.

Same here, just having ANC enabled without any audio for 1-2 hours and tinnitus is clearly noticeable. For that reason I’ve discarded all AirPods Pro in my family
