I am still deciding if i should buy this or the BeatsX
Beats x vs AirPods is totally different category.
Airpods is true wireless and one of the best and only a few true wireless earphones. Currently right now if I'm not wrong only bragi and Samsung gear icon x and some other Brand’s.
If u are looking for true wireless I think Apple AirPods is very good. Good battery life 5 hours medium volume. 3.5 hours max volume + 0-100% charge in 20mins.
Very very comfortable for Long hours use. I have owned Beats solo and Powerbeats after 2 hours ears start to hurt due to the pressure clamp on the solos and Powerbeats the clip on the ears start to pain.
For comfort wise AirPods win. I can put on whole day no issue.
I NEVER EVER USED EARPODS SINCE iphone days. Cuz it always drop when walking due to the wires pulling.
BUT THE AIRPODS NEVER DROP. Lucky didn't waste money.
Downside the sound quality is basically an EarPods with better base + no in line control. If u like to skip music non stop please consider. Unless u use ur phone control or listen shuffle mode.
The Beatsx the wires too Long. For me it didn't look nice.
Hope it helps. Good luck in ur hoot.
