They just... work really well. Sound quality is good enough, mic quality is pretty good, the battery lasts forever and then they also recharge extremely quickly in the carrying case, they pair without any trouble to my phone and mac, etc. At least in my past experience you have to mess around with bluetooth headphones constantly to get them to work. With AirPods, you hardly need to.
