Been eyeing these and I think they are close to releasing it for New Zealand for $339.95.

 


At this price, it equates to USD$233.17, whereas in the US - these are $218.99 (tax inclusive).

 

Not a huge increase IMO.

Anyone got any idea when these will be available in retail stores? They are only on the apple store at the moment, but in Aussie all the major retailers seem to be selling them.

Are you worried about the fit? You can just buy it from Apple and return it if it's not to your requirements. 

They have great return policies.

I bought them from the apple store when they released for running. 
Previously I was using the Power Beats Pro. 

 

The Fit Pro are really comfortable. I’ve been on 2+ hr long runs and it feels like they are not in my ears at all, very impressive. Not once have they felt like they might fall out. 
I like the Beats sound, and spatial audio is quite cool as well (I use fixed not head tracking)

 

I was hoping the noise cancelling would block car engine sound more, but it’s still pretty good. 

 

Really happy with them.

Pretty happy with my Fit Pros too, went on a long 1hr run today and they didn't feel like they were falling out once. 

 

Don't really mind about noise cancelling because I'm usually running with them.

I'm not into runninng (have tripped over a few too many times - the last time resulted in a smashed Apple Watch) but I do go for long walks. am finding the Airpods Pro are not as comfortable anymore and have fallen out a couple of times.

 

Was wondering if the Fits Pro have a softer feel to them.

They are pretty soft eh, really comfy. 

 

If you buy it from Apple, you can always return them if you don't like them.

I'll probably pull the trigger on them but was hoping to have a touch and feel of them first before ordering.
