In what way does it seem more restrictive? I own both the BlueBuds X (which uses micro USB) and the AirPods. I love the BlueBuds X, but the charging solution for the AirPods is vastly superior to that of the BlueBuds. To me, the charging case is one of the killer features of the AirPods. When you take them out of your ear, they conveniently pop into the case for safe keeping. While they are in the case they are always charging. They also charge incredibly fast. This makes it virtually impossibly to be "stranded" with dead headphones. Even when I ran the AirPods almost completely down, I was able to charge them from 2% to 84% in just a few minutes. I've had several times where I've had my BlueBuds die on me and I wouldn't have a backup pair of headphones. The AirPod case's battery is large enough that you can get an additional 24 hours of playback from them. This means you could potentially not charge them for days and still be fine.
