## Questions & Answers

**Q: Apple sells for 159.00. What's up with the high price**
A: Not even Target, Kohl’s, Walmart, Costco and Apple sells for $143 at the Apple store all in stock. My question is why do the open box and refurbished ones cost 60% more than retail for new?

**Q: What is the process for answering an incoming call with the AirPods+iPhone when the AirPods are currently in their case or sitting on the desk?**
A: As long as the AirPods are out of your ears (in the case or not) they remain off. So your incoming call will ring on your phone as usual, if you put an AirPod in your ear while the phone is still ringing the ring tone will be transferred to the AirPods automatically. During a call if you remove one EarPod the remaining one will be active and removing both will transfer the audio to your phone. Putting one in your ear sends audio back to the EarPod, all seamlessly and without interruption.

**Q: Is there any delay or lag for watching videos ?**
A: I haven't noticed any lag when I watch YouTube videos on my phone with them.

**Q: can you skip song and volume control without using siri or the phone?**
A: You can change the tap and double tap functions in your phone settings. One of the options is volume. So, yes, you can change the volume without using Siri or your phone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you’re on the fence about these, BUY THEM!
*by R***D on January 13, 2019*

I tried a couple of different Bluetooth headsets (behind the neck ones) and ear buds (skullcandys) before I bought the AirPods. I got to the point where I couldn’t go a single day without a Bluetooth headset to the point where I would decide my day was going to suck if I forgot them at home. Seriously people I know this review is for AirPods but if you don’t know what having a Bluetooth headset and or AirPods in all day it’s an awesome experience. Anyways I listen to a lot of podcasts and music as I work also so that’s why I chose to get these especially after all the positive reviews I saw from pretty much everywhere.After having these for 4 months I simply can’t live without them. I love my AirPods. They are the coolest piece of tech that you can buy for yourself.Fit is extremely comfortable for my ears. They are very lightweight and can be worn all day and you will hardly notice that they are there. They don’t seal like other earbuds which I thought at first was going to be a draw back but it ends up being an advantage. This is because you can be listening to whatever you are like listening to and still hear things that are going on around you (traffic, people getting you’re attention, etc) as long as you’re not blasting the volume.Sound quality is good. You’re not going to find anything this size and weight and this compact and completely wireless that will sound this good. They aren’t like nose quiet comforts or anything but many will be hard pressed to be disappointed. They have decent base and do not distort and high volumes.Battery life is great I often use one of these at a time and can stretch battery life from my AirPods case for 3 days.If you have an iPhone buy them. Yes they are expensive but they are the coolest most useful buds in the business. Just like the iPhone when it came out, you didn’t know you needed one until you used it. These are the same and they are here to stay. Lastly they work seemlesly with the iPhone but also work with android. I actually had an S8+ when I bought the AirPods and they worked perfectly with them.Anyways folks don’t spend your money on cheaper options. I went through 2 other sets before buying these and these are the best in the industry. Oh and don’t bother waiting for the new AirPods to come out. Buy these, enjoy the hell out of them and I bet you’ll buy the new one whenever they come out haha. They’re that good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Slightly better than anticipated, best used with Apple Watch
*by M***Y on August 10, 2018*

Based on other reviews, I expected to like these very much. I now love these very much. They even work with my 2012 MBP! Operation with iPhone is seemless, just pull them out of the case and they play a sound when they are connected and in your ears. Usage with a Mac - you just select your Airpods from the audio icon on the top bar. Afterwards, you'll need to select them as an audio source on your iPhone to get them paired back, at which point they'll stay paired until you select them on another Apple device. Use with an Apple Watch allows you to skip tracks and change the volume without having to get your phone out (especially helpful during walks/runs/exercise), so if you're on the fence about the watch, I recommend going for it even if its a used Series 1. I have not tested them with Windows, Linux, or Android, though I may update with those soon (I'm about a week in so far).I've been using Bluetooth earphones for about a decade (first a pair of Motorolas (died from sweat corrosion), then Jaybird SB2s (RIP after at least 5 years of loyal service), then MiPow BTX500s that still work after 3 years though the cups have seen better days), and this is the best wireless earphone experience I've had. I'll still keep my older BTX500s since they have a wired connection, but these will be my primary listening devices - especially in summer.Pros:-Case is nice, airpods fit inside perfectly, lid snaps shut securely with a magnetic closure, looks like it will hold up well to use.-Sound is equivalent (to me) to wired earpods.-iPhone/Apple Watch show a different icon when answering a call with Airpods in operation.-Call audio is excellent, mic works surprisingly well.-Airpod charge times/operational duration as expected.-Battery widget on phone has case battery (under certain circumstances) in addition to Airpod battery.-When airpod battery is low and on a call, it will let you know individual Airpod battery strength.-Taking out right Airpod pauses music, and putting it back in resumes. Taking both out pauses, but then you have to manually resume media audio. Helpful for when you need to talk to people in public or at the office.Cons:-Should come with a tether and a shock-case (can get both in a ~$10 accessory set on Amazon).-While the case is nice, it looks like it won't take a good drop too well and its very glossy - would easily slid out of a pants pocket when sitting or out of a shirt pocket while tying shoes. PLEASE GET A SILICON OR OTHER PROTECTIVE CASE, especially one that has a caribiner attachment.-Probably couldn't stand to have them in my ears for more than 3 hours, but as that is the operational duration, so its not a problem for me. They weigh slightly more than the wired ones, which is why I imagine they feel slightly less comfortable.-The glossy finish would probably make it easier for the Airpods to slip out when sweaty. PLEASE GET A TETHER.
