Case for wireless ear buds?

[pianoman88]

I was surprised to find a set of wireless ear buds when I opened my iPhoneX. I believe that they come with a case when purchased separately. Is it possible to purchase a case?

Which earbuds?

Where did you get your iPhone? I only got the standard wired variety.

Are you referring to the wired earbuds that come with your iPhone? They sort of appear wireless until you unbox them...

The iPhone X does NOT come with AirPods, which is wireless. However, it does come with EarPods, which is wired. EarPods do not come with a case, but the AirPods do.

my mistake - I didn't look at the packaging closely enough.

You are not the only one who got excited for a second over that packaging. 😀

Surprised anyone on MR would be fooled by that. Since we apparently know EVERYTHING that iPhones do and don't come with. See the many complaint threads about lack of freebees. I was thrilled that the iPhone still comes with the 3.5mm dongle, I would lose my **** if it came with airpods.

Yes, Fortunately, we still have choices. My wired EarPods are quickly becoming my backup.

I am finding the Airpods extraordinary for non-music listening and phone conversations, though short-lived for battery life. Who knew I’d ever need alternating Airpods with Beats 2 wireless?

It’s great not to walk away from a tv show during a commercial only to find my iphone dragging behind me. 🙄
