AirPods Pro 2 ANC got worse after 8A358 firmware update — anyone else?

The ANC on the AirPods pro 2 since firmware update 8A358 is absolutely terrible! It’s like Apple is purposefully making the ANC worse so that users are forced to upgrade. This does NOT seem to be a mistake. Apple is a trillion dollar company that applies rigorous testing to all its products and software. This isn’t a mistake. The marketing for the AirPods Pro 2 showed someone walking through traffic and taking the subway while listening to music. Well guess what, that isn’t the case anymore. I can barely wear them on the train without double checking whether ANC is on. The AirPods were capable of blocking all outside noise and that’s the reason I bought them. They were great until, well, this year (and yes this is after performing all their troubleshooting steps - cleaning, seal test, etc). Common Apple, please revert the ANC back to its normal level instead of forcing users to upgrade. I’d love to test a pair of AirPods with the original firmware to confirm my suspicions. 

Since around 2 weeks I noticed that when I bike the wind noise is much higher. Moreover, there is a constant noticeable white noise that was not present before. It's very annoying. I cleaned them, tried other tips but the noise stays.

I have both generations and can tell you that with firmware 8A358 the noise canceling is even WORSE on the AirPods Pro 3.

It is really bad, despite all of Apple’s hype about how they have the best ANC in the world or whatever.

I'm having the same issue. I don't see any difference between Transparency and Noise Cancelling modes. It changed after this new update. I hope they fix it soon.
