@matigo They are pretty much the same as EarPods with the obvious exception that they are wireless. Connecting to them is darn magical: you just turn Bluetooth on and open the case, your phone/tablet automatically asks if you want to connect to the AirPods. After they are connected, you can use them on any Apple device where you have logged in with your iCloud account without any extra steps. I find that really handy.
