Nobody uses AirPods with an Android phone do they? I mean why would you, I thought the whole point of the AirPods is the advanced Apple integration?

- niij 5y agoThey work just fine on Android. The important (IMO) features of noise cancellation and detecting when in/out of ear work flawlessly.
- netizen-936824 5y agoI also have family members who use them with windows for video calls, they work with just about any Bluetooth source afaik
- Hamuko 5y agoLinus Sebastian has been doing so for years now.
- kaladin-jasnah 5y agoI'm by no means an Apple fan, but AAC on Android is worse due to using SOC-builtin encoders a lot of the time (sometimes they use the Fraunhofer AAC encoder, which sounds better). Apple's AAC encoder is unparalleled and the difference is 100% tangible, so the listening experience will be better on iOS, followed by whatever uses the Fraunhofer encoder (PipeWire on Linux is pretty damn solid in AAC Bluetooth for this reason, but not as good).
- thrashh 5y agoNo, they’re good ear buds on their own. The integration actually is minor. I use mine with my Windows devices too.
- vkbm 5y agoI'm using them, both with my Android phone and on my Win laptop. I experienced two issues tho. First one was that you can't see a charge percent by default, but I managed to fix it by installing an app from Play Store. Second one is that sometimes, when they connect to my phone, volume somehow glitches, so even if it's on the half the strength, you can barely hear them.
- robertlagrant 5y agoI use them with my Android phone. Seems to work well.
