AIRPODS TO THE MAX
A few days ago, an AirPods Max review video showed up in my vids on YouTube. So I watched it. This, of course, caused similar review videos to be recommended, so I watched those well.
And I guess I am easily persuaded, because I totally want an AirPods Max now, haha.
Let’s be clear: I am a Sennheiser girlie. I love my Senns. But the only problem with them is that they are not portable. They require an amp and that requires a USB connection to my compy to work. They’re exclusively for use at my desk at home.
But apparently the sound quality of the AirPods Max is really, really good. And they’re wireless and thus portable (though the case apparently looks like a bra?).
Also, noise cancellation. It would be nice to have a really good pair of noise cancelling headphones (I say as my poor Bose QuietComforts sit sadly on my old computer desk, collecting dust and sadness).
Also also, given how much I like my AirPods, I suspect I’d probably really like these as well.
But they are expensive ($780 up here).
And I wouldn’t know if I’d like that weird green they’ve got unless I saw it in person (which I guess I could do – Market Mall has an Apple Store).
And they’re old enough that there are rumors that a second gen might be coming out soon, possibly with more colors (PURPLE?!?!?!?!?), so it may be worth waiting.
I dunno. Maybe I’ll wait until my mom comes up here and we can go have a fun little adventure to the Apple Store and try on headphones together.
WOO!
More Colorware Stuff
Just testing out a few ideas for some colored AirPods (my present to myself if I get tenure).
Any thoughts?
BOOSHATHON
If I get tenure next year, I think I’m going to get myself a Coloware item as a celebration present.
AirPods Pro, maybe.
It’d be hard to pick the colors, haha. I might have to get some of their sample colors to see what they really look like in person.
AirPods for Me!
So when I got my phone the other day, I also decided to spring for some AirPods.
Because why not.
And dudes, they are GLORIOUS.
I didn’t think I really needed them, because a) I like my cheap-o Koss headphones well enough for outside music time, and b) I have the Bose and FREAKING SENNHEISER headphones for inside music time.
But I do like to talk to my mom sometimes when I’m out walking, and fiddling with the old wired Apple headphones was getting obnoxious (and mine are REALLY old, so they aren’t in the best shape).
So I got these.
And I love them!
They’re way more comfortable than the wired ones, infinitely more convenient, and have pretty great sound. Plus, I got mine a little silicone case, which had to be red to match my new phone.
Woo!
