Wireless headphones AirPods were one of the most talked about products, September keynote. Apple with them, and together with the removal of the 3,5mm toonewhich was introduced with the new iPhones, was going to usher in a new wireless era. Thanks to the W1 chip, it was supposed to be the most efficient way to listen to music. Without wires, without problems with pairing, with decent battery life and without worries. However, there was a small catch. From the original term, which was limited toonec October, and since then, those interested have had to make do with Blizzard's "Soon™." The Wall Street Journal today came up with the reason behind the delay.

And if the Wall Street Journal source is correct, this is a real mistake. Applu. There are two alleged reasons for the delay. The first is that Apple is trying to come up with a reliable technology that would guarantee that the desired signal reaches both earphones at the same time, so that there is no delay in one earphone, which would result in a terrible user experience. The second problem is allegedly that Apple s is trying to figure out how the headphones will react if one is lost or the battery dies.
Maybe it's all just a figment of some sick mind, but if there's even a grain of truth to it, it's a big bummer. After all, these operational problems should be the first he had Apple to solve. Especially if AirHe presented Pods as a more or less finished product that would arrive a month after the conference. More than a month has passed since the planned launch date, and AirWe don't know anything else yet, except that Apple needs a little more time to finish them. The Christmas holidays are just around the corner and AirThe Pods should have been in stores by now. This just makes it seem frivolous and suggests gross flaws in product planning, which we are not aware of. AppThey weren't used to it...

Poor Steve :-/
Even under Steve, they presented unfinished products and at the demonstration they knocked each other to make sure it worked as it should and then they finished it. If they hadn't presented it, God knows how long they would have done it or they would have thrown it away. This is how they have a knife to their throat :)
Exactly.. it used to happen under Steve too. Besides, it's fair, it's better to delay the first sale than to then recall products from the customer, God forbid it ends up like Samsung.. well, not everything always works out perfectly on time :-) I'm really looking forward to it, so hopefullyonethey won't disappoint :-)
better to delay the first sales, good idea, I agree. Flammable headphones :-D that would be a disaster, shares down 10%
Steve would simply test it before as a regular user, every day for at least half a year, and then say his thing: It's worth shit, and not release it to the market.
Exactly, don't forget the greedy shareholders who want to get out of it maximum, regardless of quality. That's why I buy these products of theirs, but with a 3-month grace period, so that I can check on the Internet what doesn't work. And if it's too much, I simply skip the given generation, I don't have time at all to run after exchanges and deal with complaints. I want a quality product for the first try.
No shareholder wants to launch a bad product, because then the fiasco would cause the share price to fall, thereby devaluing their assets. It's better to think than write bullshit.
If they put bluetooth 5 in there, I'll be happy to wait.
Find out how some Macs or the first one were presented under Jobs iPhone ;)
I don't think this is the reason, rather it will be something with the battery and their safety if the flashlight explodes in the sluchatheck, it would be an even bigger mess than Samsung. Reviewers Airpods were put to the test a long time ago, so I think where the article mentions problems there won't be a real problem... Still, it's good that Apple this is how it proceeds, the product will at least be tuned and of high quality, another company like Samsung would rush to the market with the team, just to sell as much as possible before the holidays, see the Note 7 fiasco.
After all, if the problem is Airthe pods will not be of a non-functional nature, but only fine-tuning (for example, batteries) is nice to see, isn't it Applu, quality and users matter above all, not profit, which is of secondary importance.
