Not to hijack your thread but I picked up a generic set of totally wireless headphones on Amazon for 40 bucks about the same time I got the Airpods and I can't recommend them enough. Especially when you're going for headphones that don't have a W1 chip in it.

These things are pretty awesome... I only seem to get 4-5 hours or so out of them so I need to charge every other day if not daily when I work out with them, I do have long work outs though 2-3 hours at a time.. The SQ is really good. Great bass and clarity and I'm not seeing too much lag on my iPad when I'm watching videos.
I actually use these guys at the gym and my Airpods are my daily drivers for when I'm walking around or sitting at my desk at work. Someone one these forums linked it in an Airpod thread and I'm thankful someone did cause I think they're great!
