They also have a wireless recharge case, pair easily, etc.
    Same here. And they only cost 1/5th the price of air pods.

    Plus I don't have an iPhone.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

    • My wife loves her air pods, but I don't like them. I have the same issues with ear size. They just feel like they're ready to fall out. They do have decent sound however.

        Possible reasons why:

        - She really likes them
        - She's feigning interest
        - They're stuck in her ears
        - She's not interested in what people around her are saying

          But can you find those cheap Chinese AirPods knock-offs with "Find my iPhone" when you misplace them?

          So how does your wife like her AirPods?

            Why don't you take your cheap Chinese malware running devices and find some other thread?

              I was under the impression that iPhones and AirPods were Chinese-made. Am I wrong?

                  Would that not be included under my last option?

                    Yes. Designed by Apple in California (and Texas). Assembled in China.

                        Generally. But maybe she does it just for UT.

                        I didn't realize you were so sensitive about your work here. Going forward I'll try to make sure I don't implicitly or expressly duplicate without a very good reason.

                          Thank you for recognizing my sensitivity. I feel validated.

                            "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                              Sheesh. The rest of us know what a delicate soul Pelado is, and have been treating him with kid gloves for years now. And Creekster only realizes it now?!?
