Just ordered them from BB yesterday, didn't even know they would be coming in stock. ETA is Monday the 3rd. First pair of wireless headphones. Hopefully they are good.
 
I had the Airpods back in December but they sat around and then I sent them back without ever opening the box. At the time I was so bummed out with the Nov MBP that I just didn't care. Now, I have the June MBP and re-ordered the damn Airpods. Finicky I suppose.
 
My dad ordered some this morning (I've had mine since November because MacRumors announced that ordering had opened within minutes on the very first day and so nabbed them), and his says they've already shipped.

Sounds like you got in a little late? Still not... too bad?

Cancelled it. Yes, you were right, I ordered a bit late. I'm on the west coast, so by the time I saw the post, too late.
 
Apple tends to predict longer delivery dates then when you actually receive the product. A lot of my Apple purchases in the past might have a longer ship date if they don't have the item in stock, but I usually receive the item Long before they were expected to arrive.
You are correct, but i bet mine arrive (this Wed) before I could have received them from Apple! By the way, I prefer shopping directly with Apple because of credit card points, but this was too good and too quick to pass up.
 
As someone who had Jaybirds (Bluebuds/X2/X3s) and absolutely loved them over the past 5 years, i had my X3s stolen recently and had to make a decision... do i get another pair of Jaybirds or do I get the AirPods. Wasn’t in love with the look of the AirPods but also understood that the ease of pairing and use while being truly wireless would be a welcomed benefit.

After having them for a month, I cant believe i ever had any doubts. These little things have blown away my expectations. I workout daily with them and have never had an issue. Pairing is seamless between my phone, ipad, and watch. Charging is simple.

Couldn’t be happier.
