I'm sure they thought about it but my experience with Apple earphones are they don't fit my ears and subsequently fall out.
If it was as easy as a "1 size fits all" then other manufacturers releasing equivalently prices earphones wouldn't go down the multiple attachments route I described.
It's also worth mentioning that having those rubber / foam attachments does have an added benefit in that they contribute to noise cancelling so you don't need to crank the earphones as loud when in noisy locations. Which is healthier for your hearing.
- mcculley 8y agoI find that the very light weight and not having a cord hanging out seems to make them very unlikely to fall out, compared to my wired earpods.
- pushpop 8y agoThankfully Apple don't have a monopoly on wireless earphones. So for people like me who their earphones wouldn't fit, I can have wireless earphones on my iPhone and still have them fit securely for when I'm out running. Win win. It's also worth noting that different earphones have different frequency curves. Whilst Apple do make some nice sounding earphones, I wanted something with a different colourisation.
- mcculley 8y agoI agree that a monopoly would be bad. I responded to the comment about "one odd jostle" making the AirPods fall out. I have never seen that happen for myself or the many runners I run with in races. It is not at all a concern for me, based on my experience. Your postulation leads you to a different conclusion.
