AirPods don't “just work”
It&#x27;s weird to me how many people are like &quot;yeah but every other bluetooth is worse&quot;. I have Airpod Pros and experienced every one of these issues and many more on the regular with them, but my several years old now Bose QC 35II never have any of these problems, still last like 5 times as long on battery after years of recharge cycles, interact better with two simultaneously connected devices, have better signal range before dropping out, and I can control the damned volume without trying a dozen times to get Siri to wake the fuck up because airpods have no built-in volume controls and Siri&#x27;s voice activation is worse than terrible.<p>The Airpods are set to connect automatically to my macbook when I wear them AND THEY DON&#x27;T. EVER. And then calls on my iPhone will stupidly decide to connect and route audio to airpods that I&#x27;m not even wearing while they are just sitting on my desk when the phone was literally moments before using the handset speaker for a video. Know what bluetooth device does not have these problems? You guessed it, the one not made by Apple. Like...come on.<p>I really want to like airpods, but they&#x27;re just not good.
