Not to sound like a paid Apple marketer, but I think there's a distinction between wireless headphones and using AirPods with an iPhone. It's not like it's a herculean effort to use wireless headphones with a standard bluetooth connection, but it's enough of an awkward series of moves that I never enjoyed it. But I have to give Apple credit that AirPods (with an iPhone) just work way more seamlessly, to the point where the idea of quickly tossing them in and out of my ears isn't an annoyance. If I'm playing a video game and I want to listen to a podcast, I pop one into my ear, press play on my phone and I'm listening. When I'm done I simply put it in the case and it disconnects and is charging. I have a pair of Sony XM3's but as soon as I got the AirPods I basically never touched them again.
