Apple Airpods. I won’t lie, I wanted to hate them. I spent so long thinking it was all a fad, a load of rubbish. Why would anyone want these tiny little earphones that sit in your ears, willing to fall out. 

Then the memes came, only the white rich people had airpods. I laughed and agreed. I use to tell myself it was a status thing, to belong with all the folks that queued for the new iphones at the crack of dawn.

When I first started my fitness journey, I treated myself (and I seriously treated myself) to the Beats Studio Wireless Earphones in Gold. They came in at whopping £300 (ish) and even then I had a full on shitfit when I got my credit card statement. 

But they were my pride & joy, they went everywhere with me. They stayed charged for ages, the cushioning on the ear pads were super soft, they folded in and packed away neatly (that literally lasted like 2 days though). I grew very fond of my headphones, the only downside were they were quite bulky, and really I couldn’t have them at work or in public trying to be discreet.

Anyway – fast forward to last year and they finally gave up, snapped in half. I was distraught (we had a very special bond!). I didn’t know what to do! I didn’t want to splash another £300 on headphones but I needed some asap. This lead me to putting a poll on Instagram to see what headphones people were raving about. All I knew was they needed to be comfy on the ears, bluetooth and be able to endure my workouts.

Now it was 99% airpods that came back from Instagram, and I was shocked tbh. I didn’t know what to do, stick to what I knew and loved or try something new.

Birthday Celebrations

On my 27th birthday I was lucky enough to be taken to the local Apple shop to get some new headphones. I had been without my babies for a while now and my birthday seemed like the perfect time to treat myself once again.

Now I ummed and ahhh’ed alot that day, I hassled the apple guy about airpods for ages. He gave me a pair to test, and I ran around the store, seeing if they would fall out of my ears or be worth the splurge. In the end I was won over, and I walked out with a brand new pair of airpods and turned into ‘one of them’ & let me tell you, I will not be turning back.

Why I love Airpods

💜 CHARGES FAST – These babies literally charge super fast, like so fast you can put them on charge and be out the door in 15 minutes ready to go workout or walk the dog or head to work. 

💜 FITS IN MY BAG – I literally use them for everything and I can shove into my bag and be on my way. Phone calls with friends, podcasts to walk the dog, finding the perfect gym playlist. I can use them to voice command and use Siri and they are just fab okay.

💜 CUTE CASES – The best thing about my airpods is the ADORABLE case I got for them. The cutest minnie mouse case off ebay for like £2, it keeps them clean and its just cute okay.

💜 CONVENIENCE – Like I said above, they are so perfect for just throwing in your bag and heading on the move. They are super portable and easy to grab and go.

💜 SOUND QUALITY – Its crystal clear, I can hear everything word for word, from my podcasts to my throwback spotify playlists or watching my fave babes instagram stories, the quality cannot be faulted.

💜 PRICE – They are also half the price of my previous headphones, coming in at £159 for a pair. I did think at first it was ALOT of money for headphones, but actually they are alot cheaper than Beats and now I couldn’t imagine a day without them.

They are also perfect for blocking out your boyfriend or partner moaning, ‘SORRY BABE WHAT, I can’t hear you over my airpods playing’. And then I carry on my dodgy dance moves with the dog singing my heart out.

Are you into Airpods? If so do you have a cute case? You need them asap.

Tell me I am wrong.
