FYI I decided to return mine to get the $170 price with AppleCare from Costco. Amazon informed me that the only way to return Apple Products is to have UPS pickup from my location, no drop off allowed at UPS, Amazon, Staples, etc. The will not issue a UPS label either to put on my own box. Strange to me, driver must pickup.
I have both the regular AirPods 2 and the AirPods Pro 1 (basically the same fit as Pro 2). In terms of fit, they both have their pros and cons, and it's honestly hard to give an answer since it's so case-by-case basis per individual. If you have an Apple Store nearby they might let you try on a sanitized pair of Pro to see if you like the fit.
other than regular use for music, podcasts, phone calls I found these super useful.
"Live Listen" - I can listen to the TV in the other room while cooking dinner. Often when cooking I've got the range hood on, stir-frying, banging pots n such around.
To do this, I leave my phone by the tv speaker, then listen on my airpods. People by TV can listen at normal volume.
Hearing Aid - my mom is hard of hearing. These work great for boosting conversations and blocking out background noise. Better than a $1500 hearing aid set she has.
My $.02
I went with the 4s since I figured they're newer and the Pro3 are rumored to be out in Sept. Plus based on my reading some people have experienced the static issue with the Pro2 as well.
EDIT: surprisingly, these "rest in your ear" pods aren't as comfortable as the wired headphones. I think it might have to do with the weight of these. But the ANC does seem to work pretty well. Ultimate test will be on an airplane.
$169 with Apple Care is a pretty decent deal, but at a $20 difference, I'd say just get non AppleCare unless you think you REALLY need it. At $10 difference I always go for AppleCare.

it's the transparency mode that isn't syncing with handoff to both earbuds which technically is two devices
turn off automatic switching between devices and clean the microphone on the button stem then it will clear up for a few more weeks
my airpods switch between my phone microphone and watch which it kills transparency mode
