Do they have ANC, an 8hr battery life, and touch controls? If so, I suppose I would consider them.
Edit: I see, AirPods are Bluetooth, EarPods are wired.
They have infinite battery life because they are wired.
Though I would love to see where you are finding wireless earbuds with ANC, 8 hour battery, and touch controls for $30.
EarPods are wired headphones
EarPods =/ AirPods
These are wired earbuds, not bluetooth.
why would headphones have touch controls
Easier to to keep them water resistant/dustproof, for one.
On earbuds, there's no much space for a button. Responding to just taps on the bud feels intuitive and works well.
If you have a wire, controller on the wire makes more sense.
