    • @wlankabel957

      and i dont get why all of these are copycats of apple

    • @devilmikey00
      @devilmikey00 7 лет назад +118

      because before apple decided to remove the standard 3.5mm jack (well no longer standard) these were for a particular consumer and no one else. Now with every other upcoming phone including samsung dropping the 3.5mm these things are no longer a niche market segment. Apple didn't' create them but they create an artificial demand for them out of thin air.

    • @oabouelleil
      @oabouelleil 7 лет назад +58

      Samsung isn't removing the 3.5mm jack in the S8. It's confirmed to stay.

    • @Smedleydog1
      @Smedleydog1 7 лет назад +33

      As usual, until apple introduces their version of someone else's idea, it didn't exist and was not needed. I have had a set of BT headphones for about 6 years. Mind you they are over the ear phones, they are comfortable & will run longer on a charge than I have ever had time to listen to music in one setting. And I don't see where the apple air buds look any less stupid than the other white ones that hung out of the ear like someone tore the wires off of a normal set of ear buds.

      lol my brain must have shorted out with the phrasing on that one. Good point. I meant I can now watch 50% more content in the same block of time. i.e. if I sit down for an hour a day (excluding video load times and other transitional wastes of time) I could watch 90 minutes of content in that same hour; that being an increase of 50%. Gotta min-max that day.

    • @naibaf710
      @naibaf710 7 лет назад +10

      Usually not, I think it can look nice. The cinematographic problem here: B-rolls of a small product (earphones) with prominent, flashy colors on the nails does take away the viewer's focus from what should be the main object to look at. It is distracting.
      Thus also why you see so many comments on the nails on this and previous videos. Would they be a less prominent color or less flashy pattern, like milk white or subtle pink, it would not trigger (as many) comments and be less distracting.
      ruclips.net/video/jha97V7YiVY/видео.htmlm26s is an example (4:26) with way more nails than product on-screen.

    • @CreedK
      @CreedK 7 лет назад +28

      Except apple doesn't really give you a choice. Since there is no audio jack, you HAVE to buy new wireless earbuds if you want to listen to music (unless you own a pair, which most people don't). The fact that Apple is trying to force you to buy their overpriced product speaks volumes about their ethics and business practices. I'll never understand why morons spend their money on overpriced garbage.

    • @KoalaTContent

    Why does no one take into account that recommending in-ear solutions to people who use Earpods is likely useless given that not everyone finds earbuds comfortable? I can't stand ear-buds and no one bothers with good solutions that aren't earbuds. I'd love to get a good solution that aren't Apple branded for mobile audio, but no one else bothers to think outside of the earbud box.

      To be fair, the airpods are probably the best of their form factor.
      All of the better sounding "earbuds" are IEMs, and actually go inside the ear canal to form a seal. That's why they have better bass. There aren't actually headphones with apple's form factor that actually sound better than the airpods.

    You forget to mention the major point of difference. They are the only ones I’ve found that do not require you to insert those rubber thingys into your ear canal. As a long term wearable, this is much better for you ears, reducing ear wax build up and standing wave problems. Plus they give you more special awareness as you aren’t completely blocking the ear canal.

It also has a light weight design. It is connected by a band which looks fine and you barely notice it, and if you don't like it I found it easy to hide. It also has volume buttons on one end of the band, that can also skip tracks. It also lets you know when your music gets to loud. It's easy to turn on and off, and easy to pair. I got it for $49.99, so check it out

This pair actually went through the wash once or twice and kept working for months. I can't recall the brand on my second pair, but they did not last more than 3 hours and both sides dies within two months. My current pair is branded as MPow. These last 6+ hours, and while that isn't as long as the MPow Wolverines(~8hrs) that they replaced, they are still good enough for work. MPow was also nice enough to send them free when my Wolverines died.

    I had the Jaybird Freedoms and they sound great when you tweak them with the EQ app, it's a night and day difference, however for me I found them remarkably uncomfortable. Also if you get them use the foam ear plugs with them, they last me maybe a month or two, but again they make them sound so much better and they're more comfortable and make it so they won't ever fall out - at least for me. I've owned all the Jaybird headphones I know about, the X1, X2, X3 and the Freedom and I hate the Freedom and X3 because they're just not comfortable - meanwhile the X1 and X2's sound much much worse, but I can wear them for hours without any discomfort - and since I use them almost exclusively for podcasts and audio books, sound quality isn't a big deal.

In fact you stated in that review that the bass in the AirPods is "not overly done" as if thats a positive, only to turnaround in this video and prefer the headphones with better bass.

    I bought a set of the Taotronics wireless headphones on amazon for around £20 GBP (Aukey style of headphone with an in line controller). I'm a huge audiophile who's been through SO many headphones (wireless & wired) of a range of good and bad brands. I've found having the wire behind the head can be irritating with the extra cable getting in the way, but the battery life is great for a half day at work or a long cycle ride.
    I'm really happy with the sound, but don't go very quiet, shame there's no external charging included. They fit amazingly, I would say they would never fall out, but that extra cable will push them out if you can imagine them catching on a jacket when looking up and down.
