You must be jealous you didn't get a pair of the Airpods. You can always use 'Skull Candy' earphones until yours arrive. You might like those.

I honestly have to say I'm really impressed. Sound quality is very improved over wired EarPods and the bass has improved much. Haven't been able to play too much but so far great!
Have them out of the box for 15 minutes... so far so good. Apple said Wednesday delivery while Fedex said Tuesday. Then 7:30A EST this morning got an Out for Delivery message
Boggles the mind that people will line up for this stuff.
I wonder how many lost at least one of them before they got home
I've owned 3 different BT headsets for the past 5+ years, each similarly sized to the AirPods and have not lost any of them. Do people lose things - including small tech devices? Of course, but I would make a bet that it's not even going to be a blip on Apple's radar over the coming year(s).
All we'll hear is from disgruntled people who don't want to pay for a replacement - or from fake stories of people who don't want to pay for a replacement. I think the fact that you can lose one and keep using the other, for phone calls, is a great thing.
And the benefit of being able to charge one while using the other and swap back and forth [without interrupting a call no less] is exactly the reason why I have 3 headsets today - because I couldn't get through the day with one and sometimes while traveling I wouldn't have the ability to charge the other so I would take all 3 with me to ensure I had at least 2 that were ready to go.
I think you are also using skull candy ones atleast those look more VFM than these
Reminds me of the commercial for booking.com - "And one kid left his shoes on the plane...his shoes!" With 4 kids, we've gone through our fair share of one (of a pair) of missing socks, mittens, boots, sandals and shoes. Each has "lost" at least one headphone set - and I'm talking about the wired kind here.
I wouldn't buy any of my kids, even the adult ones, a set of AirPods at this point. Between the lives they live as young adults and the fact that they place very little value on tech devices, will almost ensure they lose one or both of them.
You didn't read the fine print. They are NOT in stock at Best Buy. They will ship in February if you buy them from Best Buy.
Damn, you're slow. No one mentioned iPhone volume control because they were all smart enough to know that would obviously work.

Actually, from what I have been reading, seven seems to be the average on here for Store Stock. Hit or miss.
Bro, not even true. I ordered this morning on Best Buy when it said it would deliver by 12/21 and they already shipped.
They are in stock again for delivery on the 21st at Best Buy. Just placed an order now!

Nice, I'm in Portland and just checked in my area and was able to get two day shipping from best buy as well!
