I haven't use them yet, but you're a total sucker for calling them shitty headphones. The general consensus is they're great, but about on par with things you can get for a couple hundred cheaper, but also have some extra features those headphones don't have. I can't think of a single source that said they weren't quality headphones.

$600 for headphones? That's insane. Unless you work in sound production of some sort. In which case I imagine you wouldn't be going with Apple's offerings.

no theyre shit. theyre $600 and sound like $150 headphones.

Yeah, they'll probably get returned. But also free returns after using for like the first two weeks.

All the $150 headphones I've used have sounded great. Idk though I'm not an audiophile.

Apple's stuff is overpriced sometimes, but to call it "shitty" is just chest-thumping from cheapskates that don't use their stuff anyways. But yeah, even as someone that owns some Apple stuff, those headphones are a big ask... but I also prefer wired ones.

Why even bother in the first place?

I have an iPhone 11 and use a Mac. These are shitty headphones.

airpods can suck my nut-hole

Kinda weird that they call them airpods when they're over-ear headphones. I guess that is branding.

Honestly, I really like a lot of the stuff that is listed on their advertisement. The materials its built out of seem to be quality. I hate it when you buy an expensive pair of headphones and it feels like cheap plastic.

The features are really nice and they're why you're paying a lot more than a cheaper product.

airpods are overrated and overpriced garbage

I upgraded my Apple Watch 3 to an Apple Watch 6 yesterday. Honestly I just bought the Apple Watch 3 last year but the low storage capacity on it is bugging me. I had an Apple Watch 2 for a three years before that. Free upgrade from 2->3, itll end up being a $150ish upgrade from 3 -> 6 once I sell my 3. So now Im on the newest model, idk i expect to upgrade in about four or five years

I also upgraded my iPhone 7 to an iPhone 11 Pro Max today, lasted me 4.5 years and couldve gone longer if I didnt want a bigger screen. Upgrade will cost me about $500 after selling my 7. So now Im on last-gen, so should be good for five or so years, maybe longer

Apple TV is newest model, so no need to upgrade. I had the last-gen model for like six years. Idk what they could even add to make me want to upgrade.

MacBook Pro from 2012 is still going strong. I kinda want to upgrade to the newest air but I like the 15 screen for work so probably will be using this until I can find a 15 pro with the M1 for about 1k.

AirPods I use the originals, the pros hurt my ears and I dont do wireless charging really.

I might try to sell both my 12.9 iPad Pro and 9.7 pro and get an 11 pro. I really like both the 9.7 and 12.9 sizes but just feel kinda silly using both. The smaller one I use with the touchscreen and larger one I use more like an ultra-portable laptop. Idk, my larger pro is last-gen so theres no need to upgrade it but I feel silly having two pro iPads that are close in size.

Didn't I see this topic like a month ago?

I'm having weird "deja-vuisms", like watching stuff on Netflix and thinking it's all new, then by the end of the day I'm thinking it over to myself and it seems all too familiar like I seen it already.

I find it weird that someone like Blu, so obsessed with apple products doesnt have 11 series already and didnt go for a 12 series. And with a six figure income.
