Airpods 3, i got these as a gift. basically, you put them in, and they hurt like hell, they are meant to inflict damage BY DESIGN.
My wife got the air pods pro 2 I think. Can't tell one from the other. She preferred the Samsungs so she got those and gave these to me because I liked them
And I do. It's the only piece of apple tech I have.
For me they fit REALLY well. And I want people to be happy like me so I'm thinking all of the usual things you've been asked or recommended before. Because I want you to like yours like I like mine.
You know: try different tips, go watch a YouTube to confirm it's fitted right, etc. All ye things you've done or thought of doing, try it again with an open mind. And then sell them off, but yeah.
I hope, since this is probably a ways ago, that your current earbuds are working well. Phones seem to be incapable of a headphone jack, despite my startac-7800 fitting one in, so it's got to be fucking radio earbuds all the way, so you gotta find some that fit and make you happy.
That means they're not for your ears. Not that they're designed to inflict pain. I've had those AirPods, they were fine for me - and my ears don't like most earbuds that get shoved in there, and sometimes even start hurting from over-ear headphones. I now have the Airpod Pros and they're even better, all that goes into your ear is the silicone bud, no rigid plastic in the mix.
