Apple had out done themselves on December 13, 2016, when they released their new product line “Apple Airpods”. It is safe to say, the world was SHOOK.

Hands-free listening was something we all dreamed of growing up and never really thought would happen. When this dream became reality we all jumped out of our shoes.

Until..We saw the price tag.

…$159.00? Yeah. So the bubble popped for most of us early on. However a good few hundred thousand people still made the investment into a seamless sound/voice experience.

Apple actually hit a home run with these things… EVEN at this high price point. Airpods were flying off the shelves for a solid year or two until the shift happened and a golden gate of opportunity opened right next to the doors of heaven.

Knock offs were created. That’s right. Cheaper versions of Apple’s Praised Airpods were now being made over seas by other manufacturers and shipped over to the united states. The punchline? The things actually worked. Like perfectly!

People were actually buying these and LOVING them. I know I had a few co-workers in the office bring them in and flaunt them off to our whole team, only to reveal to us that they were fake and show us the miniscule size difference to prove it.

My co-worker, Brian, actually let me use his airpods in order to write this article and let me just say, I can’t believe the things were so good. I’ve used the authentic Apple Airpods before and I was blown away when I heard the quality of these $60, chinese knock off, bad boys. They were a little more than HALF the price of the Airpods from apple and yet they did literally every singe thing the same. I couldn’t believe this wasn’t all over TMZ, Forbes, Buzzfeed, and the works.

But my experience with Brian wasn’t enough. I decided to take matters into my own hands…

I ordered a pair of these things for myself (I’ll include the link somewhere in this article). I had to experience it myself. I had always heard not to buy from online stores unless they are huge and super well known but this one did look trustworthy and I felt secure giving it a chance since Brian said he got his from there. Besides, I wanted these things. I’ve always wanted a pair of the Airpods from Apple, but when I realized it was actually realistic to find some for a normal persons price point, I had to take my chance.

The shipping took about 11 business days to get to Boise, idaho but I finally had airpods of my own! It even came with a lightning charger cable which I needed too so I was over the moon about that. I made an unboxing video that my editor is working on right now but I wanted to put these things to use right away. I made the video and then had to go out to find something to wear for an upcoming event I have planned. This was my perfect opportunity to test these things out.

As I shopped that day I walked around the whole mall probably three times just because I enoyed it. I’m usually a person that likes to keep to myself so I really benefited from the experience the airpods gave me. The quality of the music sucked me into my own little zone of comfort and relaxation in a social environment. Plus when my friend called I was able to easily answer her call and talk to her for about 30 mins without any trouble or hassle switching between phone and headphones.

I never had so much fun at a public place like the mall.

I had to confirm it. The death of Apple Airpods is official. Now when I hear people talk about wishing they had Airpods I can’t stop myself from telling them. It’s like im building some kind of underground society that knows the secret of off brand, but still quality airpods.

*Update- 07/17/2018:



I have edited my video to include the section where I talk about how similar these airpods are to Apples originals and will post the link as soon as my editor publishes it. 🙂

Also, here’s a link to the store that I purchased these airpods from: Airpods Link

I wanted to write and post a video about it because I know lots of other people who value music in their lives and really wish they could afford Apple’s Airpods.

If you’ve already purchased Airpods directly from Apple, you probably shouldn’t worry because they are super trustworthy and have good insurance on their products but look, I do feel for you because I’m happy about my decision and wish I could have saved others from making that pricey mistake.

I know it’s kind of shady not buying driectly from Apple, but look I like many millions of other people, am all about saving money so if I have to buy from someone else that offers me a better deal, so be it.

So there it is. It won’t be long before everyone knows you can get cheaper airpods online and Apple will take a hit for it. I don’t want to see Apple lose money nessicarily but look, if it makes them change their mind and lower the price of their products a little bit, We can all get behind that right?

Anyway thats my rant for today. You kno the drill, Like, Share, Comment, and send this to a friend if you this this could help them with their music troubles.

Thank you so much for reading and as always, I write with love, and see you next time.
