Hi. I am 18, a guy. tomorrow my paycheck will be in my bank account. I currently have JBL Headphones and I like em. but they always mess-up my hair when I go out with the girlfriend or family. I use my JBL's for the gym and road trips. I also use them in class. but I want AirPods.
Can you afford them? Bluetooth sound quality for an Audiophile is rubbish. I actually use a Cowon Plenue 1 device with music copied at Apple lossless or FLAC format and Audeze LCD2 (Fazor 4) Headphones - they also mess up my hair but I'm listening to music it was the best quality I could afford.
End of the day - it's your cash and you spend it the way you want. So its AirPods and lovely hair or it is charities like save a donkey, for the cash. Actually headphones for you girlfriend might be a better investment and you guys listen together - you might get a loving surprise for this and a lot of kudos points.
Of course you don’t need them, they’re a luxury item. You want them? Buy them, it’s a matter or want not need
No one "needs" ANY kind of headphones.
If I was going out with a pretty girl, I wouldn't want to listen to anything but her voice,
so I would Not be playing music only for myself.
....only as much as you think you do.
No one NEEDS any Apple product.
Then go ahead and buy the Airpods. Why do you need permission from strangers ???
That depends on you, if you feel like buying one and you've got the money, I see nothing wrong with that.
Nobody NEEDs AirPods. They're cool but they're not the game in town when it comes to true wireless earbuds, some of which are comparable in quality while being much cheaper, like the JBL UA wireless buds, or the Samsung Galaxy Buds.
Need? No.
Unless someone is pointing say a gun at you and saying "I'm going to kill you if you don't have a pair of Air Pods". Then you need them,
No, people just buy those to flex. Flex that they spent a ton of money on something that can easily be lost, dies fast, and in turn requires constant charging. And, if you care, may have your Bluetooth shown when using them or it disconnecting and possibly starts blasting porn that you're watching. What's that, midgets? Now your family is concerned for you.
No, I don't think you should spend $160 to stop having messed-up hair. Plus, AirPods are really small What if one falls out of your ear while you're in a busy place? What if a pet (if you have one) eats one or both of them? In the long run, AirPods can cause slight damage to your ears, causing your hearing abilities to not be at their highest. I much prefer my $20 wired headphones.
i bought some at costco and the battery life is crap, you can only get like an hour of listening before they need to be recharged
Here's an idea - don't wear them when you go out with the girlfriend or family. It's very rude.
No one needs AirPods. Its really up to you to check them out, reviews as well & see if they are for you.
i would get thern if you want thern
Oh well, if they mess up your hair you have to have the airpods, don't you. That said, please don't call yourself a guy, clearly you're not.
