In 2008 Apple slightly confused its customers when it released headphones that it promoted as a higher-end version of the standard Earbuds. These were in-ear headphones with rubber tips.

2016: Wire-free and without jacku
For wireless Bluetooth headphones AirUsers have been waiting for the Pods for a long time. On the one hand, there were many jokes circulating on the Internet about their appearance and how easy it is to lose wireless Apple headphones, on the other hand, people were looking forward to greater comfort, better mobility andonec tangled cables. The proven shape of the headphones as such remained – Apple just got rid of the excess wires. Along with AirPods also came with a revolution in the form of an absent headphone jack.onewhich is the case with the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. To those Apple started packing Earpods with Lightning koneadapter and reduction for classic headphones.
Not a single wordchatka didn't play well. Just a classic wire jobchatwhat is the retail value max 10$ Airpods play the best, but their advantage is ease of use. This may justify the 5000 CZK price tag, but if you buy another servicechatbut for 5000 CZK they will play 95% better. Again, I wouldn't idealize it like that just because Apple.
There are not many wired and wireless ovens that play better than those from apple. I can only think of Bose and BOcka, and they cost the same or more than hearing apple. Alone apple I was convinced of this even with the wireless Beats headphones, which are terrible and compared to them airpods sound great. For most people audioI noticed that the phila plays very well for the price, but the competition definitely has better quality products.
No headphones from AppThey're not exactly musical nirvana, but in my opinion they have no major flaws (except for the high price) and are suitable for consumer listening.
I don't know of any better headphones for sports than airpods play well enough for that and o 100% better than earpods
As has already been said here Air I play well. For that price, there are few better playing headphones.
For that price, they all play better. At least the ones I know of. Bose, Sony. They cost a bit more, but the absolute best are Bang Olufs. AirPods are musical instruments.
Either you're hard of hearing or you haven't cleaned your ears in a long time boy
If you lose one or more parts, visit an authorized service center
considering that most people listen to mp3 or stream from their phone, so playing some here audiofily is funny.. otherwise just choose the right equalizer depending on what kind of music you mostly listen tochate.. I have no problem with them and their price is adequate for what they can do and how durable they are
That's the biggest nonsense that could have been written. Even with mp3 you can tell if I'm listening AirPods or Bang Olufsen. And that's clear. As for the stream, you can also set the quality there. And there's also TIDAL HiFi or Quobuz. And the equalizer? It's just a smile for audiofili. The equalizer is just fucking music and it adjusts the honed jouda what it has AirPods and they have to catch up with the poor quality somehow. But we've known for a long time that you can't make a whip out of shit. 😉🤷♂️
I would say that nowadays a lot of people are streaming, where the quality is better than "basic mp3" and that's where the difference is. Even I "hluchoid" can tell the difference between AEarPods and AKG for almost the same money. But what are we going to talk about, if a person just consumes the content, i.e. in the subway, on the train, while walking, or playing sports, then the quality goes to waste anyway. At home, it's still better to play with closed headphones than with plugs.
If you guys knew what a person REALLY hears and what they REALLY distinguish, you wouldn't write such wisdom here...
I have to laugh at that "Hans" again... resentful of everything from Apple, as I already wrote once, what are you looking at when the products are eating you up so much
Hanzi, I would send you to hell, but I won't. You might like it.
Main use case Airpods and earbuds in general are for listening in the "field" where we will especially appreciate the easy handling, comfort of wearing in the ears and small dimensions for carrying in a pocket. The listening quality is a tribute to the aforementioned advantages. AirHowever, the pods are not completely bad in terms of quality and especially volume, and are slightly better than the EarPods (wired buds from Apple What is included with the phone?onem) or other goodies. For HiFi listening at home or at work (but there are also people who use them "in the field"), classic headphones are of course better, but at the cost of larger dimensions and less pleasant handling, etc. Alternatively, earplugs supposedly provide better quality, but they press slightly in the ears.
It's up to everyone's preference which benefits they prefer, everyone has something.
