From [1]Jason Kottke:
AirPods. This is my favorite gadget in years, the first real VR/AR
device that feels seamless … The freedom of wireless headphones
feels similar to when I first used a laptop, wifi, and dockless bike
share.
I cannot imagine how this is remotely true and Jason Kottke doesn't
elaborate.
I have a pair of AirPods. They are convenient but a regretted purchase.
The device is not augmenting or virtualizing reality in any way. That
is, until I take one Pod out of an ear and restart my music or podcast.
I used wireless headphones before the AirPods. They did what these do:
play music; play podcasts; and do so without a wire (until
charge-time).
