Sure, but it's all in what you want. I have several LG versions that I have had over the years .. they do well, but I have also broken the wires on several of them ..
In my opinion ... these are well worth the $$$ for what they do. Are there better sounding, sure .. but these are so convenient ... the one thing I hope future versions have is the ability to locate the case via sound. Cause it's easy to misplace that ...LOL... and of course longer battery life . and I'm sure that is in the works ... -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of lenron brown Sent: Friday, December 07, 2018 3:42 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: New Apple Airpod are coming as well as Amazon and google competitors On 12/7/18, Andy Baracco <w...@socal.rr.com> wrote: > They advertise 4 to 5 hours, but there are many BT headsets that will > give you more. > > Andy > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Jenifer Barr > To: viphone@googlegroups.com > Sent: Friday, December 07, 2018 3:44 AM > Subject: Re: New Apple Airpod are coming as well as Amazon and > google competitors > > > Hi all. > I do love my airpods... the only annoying and rediculous thing is > the batery life!
